Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1997 Range Rover HSE, owned by George Michael, presents a unique opportunity, with proceeds benefiting MacMillan Cancer Support. Though stored for years, it shows decent bodywork but needs mechanical attention and cosmetic refurbishment, making it a project car with significant celebrity provenance.
Condition

Therefore, it falls into the 'Above Average' category due to the need for moderate reconditioning.

The car has been stored in a compound for many years and, although the chassis and bodywork look to be in pretty decent, solid condition as far as we can tell, the car now has project status.
The car takes electrical energy throughout, and the dashboard electronics, electric windows and ICE all appear to work.
However, there are numerous warning lights in evidence on the dashboard display, including one stating ‘gearbox’ and another with an icon of a car raised on a ramp – a symbol we interpret as meaning ‘Get this vehicle into a workshop sooner rather than later’.
Now, it might be that these mes...
