Interesting and all a bit strange really , the badge on the back looks as if from a P38 LR H&H and badged as a Range Rover at the back and Overfinch at the front . Colour wise there were 5 on offer one was HandH green metallic which is quite dark. Glasses are correct mine are in my glass cabinet at home not in the car which is in storage. It is basically devoid of any Hand H branding/ edition build identifiers , glasses ( at around £1k a pair) being the exception, including the missing metal diamond shaped engraved HandH badge on the rear drink’s cabinet and front dashboard which wouldn’t have had the Range Rover badge. There’s no photos but there would also be HandH sill plates for all 4 doors which you might want to check out. . The service book wallet is from a L405 Land Rover Holland and Holland not from an Overfinch.

Prototypes I’m not sure on. Number 001 was the car featured on top gear , it’s not this one. £50 is the standard Overfinch charge for authentication. Usually they don’t have records pre the dec 2010 change in ownership unless commissions for older vehicles were done after that, or the evidence is overwhelming like this one, they are not always new cars they work on.

It is a cracking Overfinch though. Holland and Holland Range Rover By Overfinch

The weather held up to make this a very well attended event with British made vehicles across many decades from vintage Bentley to McLaren. Three Fullfatrr in attendance, a Classic, L322 Westminster and my Overfinch H&H. Had a nice chat with the Westminster owner but sadly not with the other owner. Great atmosphere, excellent silver band and a street party style tables and chairs set up when grabbing some food and drink. Finished off the Platinum Celebrations perfectly.

Got to say this was a fascinating thread and that is a superb car, I don't read many threads completely but for me reading about a car with that pedigree is a refreshing change from L460 delivery times . Geoff

Thanks Geoff appreciated. I’m glad my son spotted it for sale so we had the opportunity to keep it in good order and enjoy sharing.  Holland and Holland Range Rover By Overfinch

That is going to be my next car John when you sell it

Spent a great day out on Saturday with the RROC , it was great to see Matt’s Ultimate Edition again , the clubs 35th anniversary and it’s unique colour scheme was looking in great shape. There was also some great examples from the show of the LR brand.

A special opportunity arose last weekend to fly the Full Fat RR flag at the home of the Festival Of Speed Goodwood House. The HandH was one of around 40 hand picked vehicles selected from applications from GRRC members. Getting there early we got a good position in front of Goodwood House. I met some very nice people including a gentleman who’s son works for HandH, a lady and her family whose late brother in law was in the shotgun manufacture industry for decades and would have loved the car and the owner of 2 HandH shotguns who had a RR but not one like this!

There was a great selection of vehicles and we all received our own plaques which is a terrific souvenir and useful for other car shows. We were also treated to a lunch in the ballroom so all in all a cracking day out.
