A YouTuber who specializes in abandoned cars found a graveyard full of Range Rovers.
Range Rovers are always popular vehicles, even when they’re not in great condition.
And here we’re talking about hundreds of them, which means we’re also looking at a potentially sizable amount of money that’s being wasted.

The YouTuber who goes by IMSTOKZE drove all the way to a remote area of Wales to find this Range Rover graveyard, and when he got there, he found something truly impressive.
The field he found is now the resting place for hundreds of Range Rovers.
Thousands of dollars worth of Range Rovers
Every vehicle here is made by Land Rover.
We did spot a couple of old Discovery models but most of them are Range Rovers.
Not only that, it seems that most of them are third-gen Range Rovers.
It’s the L322 model, two generations before the current one, and the first one to fully transition from rugged 4X4 to a proper 4X4 that’s also a luxury vehicle.
When it was new, this car had an MSRP that was dangerously close to $100,000.
The reason why these cars are abandoned
The L322 is notoriously difficult and expensive to fix, especially when it comes to mechanical components.
Not long ago, a man found a Range Rover buried underground and quickly realized it would just be easier and cheaper to buy a brand-new SUV than to fix that one.
These days, the second-hand market is awash with third-gen Range Rovers for sale, and they’re all quite cheap because they’ve got a reputation for being impossibly expensive to operate.
It’s a shame to see so many cars just rotting away in a field.
