2014 RANGE ROVER SV AUTOBIOGRAPHY HOLLAND & HOLLAND

KEY FACTS

• The first example of the sumptuously appointed Holland & Holland edition produced, which was handcrafted by the Special Vehicle Operations team as a demonstrator for their clients.
• It is one of only two such cars in the UK, and was previously in use for the CEO of Chanel, which owned the Holland & Holland brand until it was sold to the Beretta group in February 2021.
• Under the bonnet is a mighty 5.0-litre supercharged V8, producing 503bhp, which is delivered to all four wheels through an eight-speed automatic gearbox.
• Launched as the most luxurious and expensive Range Rover ever crafted, this Holland & Holland edition was based on the £140,000 long-wheelbase Autobiography Black, enhanced with a raft of options and bespoke features that took the price to £180,000.
• It features the Executive Class seating package, a handcrafted walnut and engraved metal interior, and even a gun case in the boot.
• All of the car’s woodwork was crafted from a single piece of walnut to ensure that each piece of veneer was perfectly matched.

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES

• This Range Rover is finished in the stunning hue of Holland & Holland Green Metallic, while the opulent interior is trimmed in tan and espresso leather combined with polished French walnut and metal detailing.
• The original factory specification includes the Executive Class seating package and long-wheelbase chassis option. This gives an extra 186mm of legroom and 17 degrees of recline to both individual and fully adjustable heated and ventilated rear seats, which also share a bespoke centre console with electrically deployable walnut tables, USB charging sockets, cupholders, stowage, and lighting, temperature and audio controls.
• The Rear Seat Entertainment package is also included, as well as a premium Meridian surround sound system, a panoramic sunroof, handcrafted metal door handles, and bespoke walnut inlays.
• The interior features Holland & Holland embroidery on the seats, with extended leather across the transmission tunnel and cabin. There is a beautifully finished leather-trimmed removable aluminium cabinet in the boot, which sits on an electrically deployable boot floor, made from aluminium and carbon-fibre.
• The car is accompanied by its original owner’s manual and service book.
