All Hail the King – Inspecting the 1990 Range Rover CSK
September 17, 2021
When Charles Spencer King developed the Range Rover back in the late 1960s he intended it to be a particular, useful and utilitarian vehicle but with slightly more refinement than the Series II Land Rover.
Then in 1990 to commemorate the great man, Range Rover released the CSK (Charles Spencer King). 200 of these limited edition 2 door Range Rovers were released to the public in either manual or very rare automatic. This one you see here with us at Bridge Classic Cars in number 47 in the series and is one of the incredibly rare Automatics.
It has been stored at our Bentwaters facility awaiting workshop space to begin inspecting what this glorious old girl needs to be useable and splendid once more.
When it arrived for inspection, it was not under its own power. Our in-house technicians here at Bridge Classic Cars believe there to be an issue with the starter motor which will soon be replaced in order to make sure the 3.9-litre powertrain at the heart of this beast works as it should.
Meanwhile, there is quite a lot of corrosion on the underside of this 31-year-old beauty which is being looked at and thoroughly assessed by our amazing team.
Keep your eye out for updates on this incredible piece of 1990s luxury on our projects page.

It’s very difficult at times to perfect every single blemish on metalwork that is nearly 50 years.
But we try our best…
As someone humorously described to us only last week “it’s 50 years old, when in the morning I look into my mirror it’s obvious that I have seen better times!”
Our good friends at Douglas Metal Finishing in London are one of the leading chrome platers and metal finishing companies in Great Britain. They have performed miracles on the chrome work of our 1970’s Chevrolet Corvette.
The work is now complete and back with owner of this wonderful car.
