I have owned my landy for years, keeping my baby meticulously cleaned and maintained. We've been through a lot together, but unfortunately my dad needs some unexpected surgery, and I have to sell her to cover costs :'(


The vehicle is in absurdly good condition, especially given its age. She doesn't have any of the 'typical' old car problems: the paint isn't faded, all of the electronics work (all power doors, windows, radio etc), the weatherstripping still seals, the air vents aren't broken, fuel system is in good condition (recently tested at ~35 psi), windshield wipers work etc. The engine is also extremely healthy – oil changed regularly and not even a vacuum leak. She starts quickly, idles at the proper RPM, and the V8 has all of the get-up-and-go for whatever you can throw at it. It is built like a truck; the GAVR for this vehicle is 7000 lbs, and she has a receiver for a tow hitch.


The brush bars are aftermarket, and the paint on those is fading a touch, but not noticeably.


Jobs performed recently include:

Idle Air Control Valve replaced

Distributor cap and wires replaced

Gear oil changed on both front and rear final drive unit

All driveshafts and u-joints greased

All Door latch springs replaced

Engine oil changed

Rotoflex changed

Starter replaced

Battery upgraded

Clutch master cylinder replaced and lines bled


The car has a few caveats: the spotlights on the brush bars were never wired, the AC charge is getting low, and the rear view mirror was removed. This vehicle has seen minor off road use, so there are imperceptible scratches and dings low on some of the body panels.


The spare tire is completely new, and there is also a spare rotoflex that I keep in the back, along with a proper bottle jack. Tread life remaining is estimated at about 30%. The tires are in decent condition and lose less than 2 psi per month. Though the acc belt is new, there is a spare in the back as well.


This is a serious listing – I put effort into this listing so that you can make an informed choice instead of wasting your time. Please do not waste mine - contact me only if you are as serious about buying as I am about selling. Test drives allowed only if cash-in-hand.

Jaguar Land Rover building new R&D center for hybrids, EVs, autonomous cars

Wed, 25 Sep 2013

The success of Jaguar Land Rover in recent years has largely been down to a resurgent product lineup, but a recent move into the research and development will see the British-based, Indian-owned brands take the fight to its German rivals more aggressively than ever before.
JLR is investing 50 million pounds ($80,345,000, as of this writing) in a joint R&D center in central England. The move will more than triple its staff dedicated to research, from 150 to 500, with Wolfgang Epple, JLR's Director of Research and Technology telling Automotive News Europe, "In order to play among the big animals in automotive and to be anchored in the mind of customers you have to have offered something unique, to be first in market. We want to be one of the key premier automotive manufacturers."
Jaguar Land Rover's 50-million-pound contribution represents more than half of the 94-million-pound tab, on the so-called National Automotive Innovation Campus. Based at Warwick University, Tata's European Technical Center, Warwick Manufacturing Group and the Higher Education Funding Council, an agency of the British government, are all chipping in for the facility.

Jaguar Land Rover opens first overseas factory in China

Wed, 22 Oct 2014

Anyone who's a car fan knows that Jaguar and Land Rover cars and trucks all come from the UK. And while we don't doubt that will remain true for the most part, it won't be an absolute truth for long, as the British automaker has just opened its first factory overseas.
Its new plant in Changshu, China, is the result of a $1.8-billion joint venture between JLR and local automaker Chery. It covers some 4.3-million square feet and will, once at peak capacity, produce 130,000 units specifically for the Chinese market, where JLR sells over 100,000 vehicles each year to make it the company's single largest market worldwide.
Production at what's officially known as the Chery Jaguar Land Rover Automotive Company will start with the Evoque, of which one in five globally are currently sold in China. Production will eventually encompass three models. We already know that the Discovery Sport will be next, but the third model line has yet to be announced. JLR has confirmed, however, that the Changshu plant will produce unique models and derivatives specifically for the Chinese market, so we wouldn't be surprised to see a long-wheelbase version of the forthcoming XE or next-generation XF assembled there to satisfy local tastes.

Jaguar Land Rover creates new Special Operations division for halo vehicles, bespoke commissions

Fri, 13 Jun 2014

Jaguar Land Rover has announced that a new division of the British manufacturer will be dedicated to "bespoke commissions," as well as heritage products and apparel. Oh, and the new Special Operations division will also be behind JLR's halo cars from now on.
It's that last one that is the most tantalizing, as the last real halo product to see production from Jaguar was the XJ220. The Range Rover, meanwhile, has always had its own kind of halo reputation, although the Land Rover brand itself has never really gotten into the game with a dedicated model.
According to JLR, the new halo models will focus on ultra-high performance and luxury with a limited run of vehicles. The bespoke models, meanwhile, will give the wealthiest customers full sway over how vehicles are outfitted, with unique paints, trims and other accessories. The new SpecOps division will be run by John Edwards.
