THE OVERVIEW
Offered for an appreciating new owner is this classic 1995 Land Rover Discovery W/RARE 5 Speed! 
Finished in Alpine white over tan leather, this Rover shows just under 69,000 actual miles on its working six-digit odometer. It sports the 3.9 liter V8 engine mated to the RARE 5 speed manual transmission!  It has electric windows and DUAL ELECTRIC GLASS MOON ROOFS, SEVEN PASSENGER SEATING, original stereo, cruise control, high/low shifter, tow hitch electric leather seating and factory alloy wheels with Michelin tires. It is being sold with clear and clean California title!I have many more photos and a video of the Rover running but Ebay seems to not allow posting of the links which I can email upon request.

PLEASE CALL 650-307-2251 FOR QUESTIONS, TEST DRIVES AND/OR MECHANICAL INSPECTIONS

THE BODY AND TRIM
The exterior of this Disco is in good to very good,  quite presentable condition overall with a few blemishes including: missing rear light guards, some corrosion areas in a couple of the door jam corners, cracking on the rubber, some brush touched up paint nicks, imperfect paint on the front valance grill panel and miscellaneous scuffs.

THE INTERIOR
The interior of this classic Rover is  also in "GOOD" condition overall. It sports electric leather seating, the dual electric glass sunroofs, electric windows all working, nice factory rubber floor mats and the groovy little fold down third row seats with belts too, very nice clean and not sagging headliner, clean crack-free dash, nice original carpets with light wear only! Known imperfections inside this car include some wear on the leather especially on the driver seat, radio inop, hazard switch dangling, rear hatch door speaker grill banged up, ABS light illuminated on dash and a/c not working.

THE DRIVING EXPERIENCE
This classic Rover starts and runs fairly well with solid acceleration and mid range torque from the V8 engine and 5 speed stick shift combination. The transmission up and downshifts well [second gear grinds under enthusiastic shifting, the braking is straight and true with good/slightly soft pedal feel and the suspension is solid with a great highway ride! The catalytic converter is rattling underneath but does not seem to affect any performance. I have not tried to engage the low range shifter since I have owned it. The steering feels aloof and a bit"unPorsche-like".

Jaguar Land Rover may build factory in Saudi Arabia

Tue, 11 Dec 2012

The Middle East is one of the fastest-growing markets for Land Rover, so it makes sense that the automaker is looking to set up shop in the region. According to Automotive News, Jaguar Land Rover is in talks with the people of Saudi Arabia to build a factory in the country at an expected initial cost of $1.2 billion. Still in the early stage of talks, the proposed facility could start up by 2017 using locally sourced materials such as steel and aluminum.
Such an arrangement could be beneficial for both entities as Saudi Arabia looks to diversify its oil-reliant economy and Land Rover could get local production capacity of around 50,000 units. The report also says that the agreement talks about the possibility for Jaguar models to be built at the same plant further down the road.
This won't be the first vehicle produced in Saudi Arabia - that honor goes to the KSU Gazal-1 - but it will be the first from a major global automaker.

Jaguar SUV mule doing Ring testing in Evoque clothes

Mon, 28 Apr 2014

Jaguar has moved its Range Rover Evoque-bodied tests of the production C-X17 Concept from icy streets to the legendary Nürburgring, as work continues on the brand's first SUV.
Really, there's not a great deal of new stuff here. Based on the number plates, this is a different vehicle from the one we saw back in March, which we originally identified as the upcoming replacement for the Land Rover Freelander/LR2. The details, though, appear largely the same. The biggest distinction we can see between the March tests and this are the US-spec headlights, which add amber reflectors at their sides. Based on these shots, it does seem as if the C-X17 should be a fairly poised road vehicle, as the engineers hustle it around the 'Ring.
Of course, as soon our spies can capture images of a production-bodied C-X17, we'll be sure to pass those on to you. Until then, take a look up top for images of the Range Rover-bodied Jaguar as it tests at Germany's Nürburgring. You can also scroll down for our March images for the C-X17 mules testing on public roads.

Jaguar Land Rover offers (some) detail about new Ingenium engine

Thu, 10 Jul 2014

Jaguar Land Rover officially announced its Ingenium family of engines with the unveiling of the 2.0-liter version in the Jaguar XE concept at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, but it kept details very thin at the time. All we knew was that the new turbocharged mills could be configured to use gasoline or diesel, and be positioned longitudinally or transversely. Months later, JLR is finally letting some more info slip about its new baby, but there are still some big questions to be answered.
For the Ingenium project, Jaguar Land Rover gave its engineers a clean sheet of paper and told them not to worry about using any previous parts or machinery. In the end, the designers came up with a family of turbocharged, aluminum-block engines based around modular, 500cc cylinders to allow it to grow or shrink as the market demanded. The layout was also made adaptable enough to incorporate hybrid drivetrains, if needed. "Being configurable and flexible are the two key strands of Ingenium's DNA because we have future-proofed our new engines from the outset," said said Ron Lee, the company's director of Powertrain Engineering.
To maximize efficiency, Jaguar promises that all versions of the Ingenium engines come with computer-controlled, variable oil pumps and water pumps to use only as much energy as needed. They also get direct injection, roller bearings for the cams and stop/start. The diesel version alone has 17 percent less internal friction than the mill it replaces, the company claims. JLR is also promising class-leading figures for Ingenium's torque and horsepower too, but it's not giving away those specs just yet.
