Glenfrome Facet

This oddity is apparently based on a Range Rover and came out of the strange 1980s “coachbuilder” period. The seller references it being one of the best off-roaders and a luxury sports coupé. What more could you possibly want?

We started this post, and then it came to our attention that Autoblog previously covered this one as an eBay find of the day. At this point, what can we really add?

Front end is plenty odd.

It appears this thing has no good side.

…confirmed.

Interior is an interesting shade of reddish and, uh, goes well with the hideous rose exterior.

Glenfrome of England are renowned the world over for the superior craftmanship which goes into each of their spectacular specialist vehicles. And none is more spectacular than the ultra futuristic Facet. Based on the Range Rover, probably the best standard production four wheel drive vehicle in the world, the Facet has a wedge shaped body shell which singles it out as an all terrain vehicle for true individualists.

Occupants sit in air-conditioned luxury and are protected by a tubular roll cage, and massive crash bars back and front. With removal of the lift out roof panel, which stores conveniently in the front compartment beneath the hydro-electrically lifted bonnet, and the operation of the electrically operated rear window, the Facet brings real open air motoring to the luxury sports coupé.

The Facet’s superb off-road characteristics and tough go-anywhere construction are complemented by the superb standard of finish which has become the Glenfrome trade mark.
