1995

W czerwcu Range świętował 25-lecie produkcji. W Wielkiej Brytanii odbyło się z tego powodu wiele imprez, wiele też miejsca poświęciła autu prasa motoryzacyjna. 29 kwietnia, Range Rover Register zorganizował, pomiędzy Solihull a Tower of London, przejazd konwoju 25 aut. Każde z nich pochodziło z innego roku produkcji modelu, co stanowiło duże osiągnięcie, nawet dla klubu tej wielkości! Po burzliwej debacie w prasie, podczas London Motor Show zaprezentowana została wersja Range Rover Classic 25th Anniversary Final Edition, co był znakiem zakończenia produkcji modelu Classic. Wersja ta oparta było na wersji Vogue SE, wyprodukowana została tylko w ilości 25 egzemplarzy. Każdy z nich otrzymał tabliczkę z numerem umieszczoną na desce rozdzielczej, 3.9-litrowy silnik o mocy 181 KM i 231 Nm momentu obrotowego.
Wszystkie egzemplarze pokryto lakierem metalizowanym Oxford Blue, wyposażono w chromowane zderzaki i „urodzinowy” emblemat na przednich błotnikach. Wnętrze wykończono w kolorze ,,stone beige,,, standardowo wyposażono w fotele pokryte skórą oraz wysokiej klasy system audio. Centralny zamek połączony został z alarmem ze zmiennym kodem elektronicznym. Cena auta – 40 000 funtów brytyjskich – była o około 38 000 funtów wyższa od ceny auta z początku produkcji, ćwierć wieku wcześniej. Pomimo tego jednak, za sprawą ogromnego zainteresowania entuzjastów, nie było żadnych problemów ze sprzedażą. Ostatni Range Rover Classic zjechał z taśmy 22 lutego 1996 roku, po 26 latach od rozpoczęcia produkcji, w ciągu którego to czasu wyprodukowano łącznie 317 615 ezglemplarzy. .......ΚΑΛA ΡΕ ΝΑΠΟΥΜΕ, ΑΥΤΌ ΕΊΝΑΙ ΤΟ ΕΡΓΑΛΕΊΟ ΤΙΣ ΔΟΥΛΕΙAΣ ΤΟΥ ΠΑΠΑ ΑΠ'ΟΤΙ ΚΑΤΑΛΑΒΑ.
