It’s no secret that I love a budget overland rig; recent offerings include this $7,000 2010 Chevrolet Express 1500 AWD, $10,000 2008 Land Rover LR3 HSE, and $11,900 1991 Mitsubishi Montero. I’ve been traveling and living on the road for more than a decade, and I’m convinced that cheap rigs are the best choice for serious travelers. A budget option shifts the perspective away from the vehicle and allows more time and money for experiences. In addition, when navigating unpaved routes, there’s a greater risk of vehicle damage or even total loss, which makes exploring in a cheap vehicle less intimidating than a no-expense-spared build. To this end, cue today’s 2000 Range Rover P38 (152,695 miles), which boasts premium modifications and has recently enjoyed a full service. At $10,500 OBO, this rig represents an impressive value for an extensively uprated triple locked Range Rover and would serve as a great, affordable option to get out there and explore.
From the Seller:
“Up for sale is my 2000 Land Rover Range Rover Vitesse, one of the final-year P38s and one of the more desirable trims. This truck is clean, runs great, and has been responsibly maintained. This is a solid P38 and would make a great weekend truck, collector piece, or enthusiast project. These are only getting harder to find in this condition. Can arrange shipping anywhere in the US.”
