Rare Diesel 5-Speed: 1995 Range Rover Classic LWB

The Range Rover Classic LWB, especially the later ‘soft dash’ models, blends timeless Land Rover styling with extra rear passenger space and a more contemporary cabin. Yet this particular 1995 example offers something that sets it apart from most Classics sold in the U.S.: a 300Tdi turbodiesel engine paired with a five-speed manual transmission.

This combination was never offered on American shores, as U.S. buyers only received the gasoline V8 with an automatic gearbox. The presence of the 300Tdi and a manual shift not only boosts fuel efficiency and off-road capability but also adds a layer of uniqueness that collectors and enthusiasts will surely appreciate.

While the listing does not reveal many details about the car’s condition or history, the sheer rarity of this drivetrain package makes it an intriguing find for anyone seeking a distinctive Classic. Whether you’re a diesel devotee or a manual-transmission purist, this British SUV could be a worthwhile project or a turnkey addition to any collection.
