2012 Land Rover Range Rover on 2040-cars

More infos regarding my car at: lindylggrothaus@speedfreaks.org .
The 2012 Range Rover Autobiography Ultimate Edition was a special edition produced at the end of the L322's
production run, with only 500 built worldwide of which 50 or less were for the U.S. market. I'm the second owner
of this Autobiography Ultimate, finished in Roussillon Red over Ivory and Dark Cherry semi-aniline leather
interior. It was originally registered in Kansas, and was then brought to California where I purchased it. My
Range Rover currently has under 29,900 miles (which may go up as I still use it occasionally), and drives just as
well as it did when new (granted, I didn't buy this one new, but this is my 5th of this generation and I've owned
every other one from new). This was a truly special Rover, with an original MSRP of $170,000!
Options and features include Autobiography Package: exterior design package, Rover Towing Prep, semi-aniline
leather seats, leather center console sides, lower dashboard, cubby lid, headliner and door panels, 1/2 wood and
leather steering wheel and gear knob, reclining heated and ventilated rear seats with winged headrests and front
seat control, LOGIC 7 1200-watt surround sound system, 4-zone climate control and glass, adaptive cruise control,
Ultimate Edition Package (dual, removable integrated rear seat iPad devices and headphones, individual business
seating for rear passengers with multi-position stowable business table, center console beverage chiller, glass
flutes with deployable holder, Oxford leather dash topper, seat side valances, front and rear console side trim,
door stowage pockets and loadspace trim, exclusive Kalahari wood trim detail on door, door top rolls, and front and
rear console and business tables, polished aluminum door switch surrounds unique Teak wood loadspace floor with
anti-slip inlay and polished stainless steel hardware, unique Ultimate Edition badge, unique 20" multi-spoke
diamond-turned alloy wheels, premium metal side vent finish, polished stainless steel lower tailgate finisher, body
color grille surround, illuminated treadplates, power deployable side steps, and more). This also has the
electronic rear locker. In addition, this vehicle is covered under remaining factory warranty until June of 2016
(I believe) or 50,000 miles, and can be extended with the dealer (probably ~$4k for a Land Rover factory warranty
that goes out another 4 years / 75k or 100k miles).
The exterior is in great condition, with very minor wear commensurate with the low miles. There is a small chip on
the windshield which happened in the last couple of months; however, the windshield was replaced late last year.
The leather is in great condition; there is however a small scuff on the steering wheel leather near the 11 o'clock
position. The rear loadspace shows some use (scuffs on the wood that can be cleaned up, a few marks on the leather
near the floor). Of course, the iPads and champagne flutes come with the vehicle.
I have added the factory crossbars (without the full rail system) and a Land Rover OEM ski rack, and also replaced
the tires with 265/50R20 Nitto Terra Grappler G2s (which are phenomenal in the snow. These tires have ~2000 miles
on them).

Land Rover knows where you're going and how you want to get there
Thu, 10 Jul 2014Land Rover makes some of the most capable SUVs on or off the road, and some of the most luxurious too. But the British automaker isn't about to rest on those laurels - not when every other automaker assaults its territory with sport-utes of their own. That's why Land Rover has been working so hard on nifty new technologies from a depth-sounder in the door mirror of the Range Rover Sport an augmented-reality head-up display that makes the whole front of the car virtually disappear.
JLR's newest tech may not be ground-breaking, but its integration promises to make driving around town that much easier. The system syncs with the driver's smartphone and uses all manner of parameters - including driver habits, weather and location as well as the presence of other passengers - to make the commute go as smoothly as possible. Get into the car and it'll set the seat and mirrors for you. No big deal, because lots of cars do that. But it'll also set up the nav system to take you to work and the sound system to play your favorite music. Okay, getting more interesting.
Get in with your kids and it'll know not only that you've got to drop them off at school first (or remind you to pack their gym bag if they've got soccer practice after school that day) but that they might not enjoy that Chumbawamba album you've been listening to since college and it'll play something it knows you'll all enjoy based on your listening history. Then it'll switch back to Tubthumping once the kids are out, remind you of your morning meeting and alert those you're scheduled to meet with if you get stuck in traffic while finding you a better route to get there, monitoring fuel levels all the while and telling you if you'll need to tank up before you reach your destination. It knows if you like calling your mother on the drive to work and will lower the air suspension to make it easier to hop out once you get there.
Jaguar Land Rover creates new Special Operations division for halo vehicles, bespoke commissions
Fri, 13 Jun 2014Jaguar 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.
European automakers gear up for Brazilian production
Mon, 07 Oct 2013Brazil is the place to be, apparently. Toyota has been investing in the South American country, as has BMW, which announced a $261 million investment in October 2012, on the heels of an Audi factory announcement in San José Chiapa. The high-end immigration is only set to continue, as Mercedes-Benz and Jaguar-Land Rover have both announced plans to set up manufacturing operations there.
Mercedes is the big news here, as its new facility will see the German manufacturer invest 170-million euros for production of its next-generation C-Class and upcoming GLA-Class. "Brazil is an important future market. With our local production we accept the challenge and take on the competition," noted Andreas Renschler, Management Board member for Production and Procurement at Mercedes-Benz Cars and Mercedes-Benz Vans. Production is expected to begin by 2016.
Jaguar-Land Rover, meanwhile, isn't so concrete in its plans. The news of its investment in South America comes from a job posting for a plant quality manager in Brazil that was picked up by the UK's AutoCar. "Portuguese language skills will be definite advantage" for interested candidates, according to the job listing. The want ad follows on the heels of remarks by Jaguar Land Rover's Dr. Ralph Speth, who said there are "very intensive discussions" with Brazil's government. Unlike Mercedes, there's no mention of which vehicles will be produced in South America, although AutoCar thinks the Freelander, sold in the US as the LR2, is a leading contender.
