2000 Land Rover Discovery Series Ii Rooftop Tent, Full Rack, Awning, Adventure!! on 2040-cars
Miami, Florida, United States
|
Priorities have changed, so it's time to let go of our nice 2000 Land Rover Discovery Series II with a number of excelent upgrades, specially for the adveturer type.
YES, this car has over 230.000 miles. Let me tell you a little story. I bought the car from a gentlemen who said had bought the car with about 40K miles and drove it for another 185K. The car was in such good shape that I decided to purchase it regardless. I had plans to do a TDI transplant, so the high mileage of the engine did not concern me too much. Soon I was installing the expedition accessories, like rooftop tent, dual battery, etc. In the meantime I used the car wiht its original gas 4.0 V8. I have driven the car for about 10K without a single hiccup. So I wondered: why spend over $10K doing the transplant if it's working perfectly fine. You got my point. The facts: The engine has high mileage but burns no oil, no crankcase pressure, etc. Leaks the smallest amount you can think of. This is my 4th Disco and this is the one with the least leaks by far. Previous owner did a head rebuild at around 170K and a complete engine re-seal at 210K. Work was done at Miami Rovers, where the car is currently serviced regularly. Last service about 200 miles ago. Transmission shifts perfect. Low and High work as they should. Brakes are good. E-brake needs adjustment. The dash shows 4 malfunction lights. 3 of them have the same source, which are the traction control, downwill and ABS. One of the ABS sensors is bad. Computer does not tell you which one it is....ABS still works fine in 3 of 4 wheels. Check engine light goes on and off. O2 sensors replaced recently. In any case this is an emissions related fault. Again, engine performs perfectly fine. Electrical is near perfect. There is nothing I know of that does not work other than the horn (blows the fuse). Features a dual battery with automatic disconnect solenoid. Second battery is sealed AGM. All accessory lights work with original switches in the dash, no weird cutouts or funky toggle switches. This is also true for the rear LED worklights. Interior is in fantastic shape. Leather seats have no rips, tears, etc. Protected with all-weather fitted seat covers by Lucky 7. All controls work as they should. Dual sunroof, both working with their respective sunscreens. Central lock, courtesy lights, power windows (two motors with control boxes just replaced), etc all work. Stereo is factory with CD changer. Fully functional. Harman Kardon audio package. The body is in great shape after 14 years of service. There is no visible rust I could notice other than a 1" surface stain under one of the window's gasket. Tires are of an unknown brand to me, but full size and matching. About 65% thread left. As far as accessories: Full lenght roof rack purchased less than 2 years ago brand new by Voyager Racks (ex Rover-Racks). Model is "offroad". Light brackets welded at factory. This rack is massive xHD. Powder coated. Rack lights are Hella Rallye. Bush guard lights are Land Rover OEM Safari lights. Worklights are Rigid Industries LED's. Rear access ladder also by Voyager Racks (much sturdier than OEM). Also powder coated. Rooftop tent by Tepui tents in CA. This is my 2nd Tepui and is an excellent camping platform. Ive never had one single problem with the tent, no leaks, etc. Ventilation is superb. Built in mattress is very comfy (even my wife says so!). The tent has a telescopic aluminum ladder, which is attached to the floor of the tent and aids in the opening and closing of the tent. It also features a fantastic lower enclosure (annex) with it's own waterproof floor, windows, mosquito netting, etc. Look them up online. The model in this D2 is the Autana. Pictures of the rooftop tent deployed as well as awning with enclosure are identical as the one in this vehicle. Those pictures are from my previous vehicle (a 2003 D2 Drive Around the World series if you wanted to know. Yes, I miss that car!!!). On the LH side of the rack you'll find a matching awning from Tepui. I also have a full mosquito enclosure for this awning. Front OEM bush bar in good condition. OEM running boards installed 2 months ago. Rear OEM light protectors. OEM dog guard less than 1 year old. In the pictures you will notice an number of personal accessories that are NOT inculded. But I'm using this car almos daily, so I will not remove any of these until the sale is finalized. Again, this is a great vehicle that is ready to hit trails or go on an expedition right now. Fuel up and go! I have tried my best to represent the car in an honest way. No known defects I am not disclosing. FL clear title in hand tomy name. As far as conditions for this sale: No warranties implied or expressed. Bidders with less than 2 pos feedback contact me before placing bid. I will cancel bids until you do so. I can assist buyer with shipping. All related expenses to be paid by buyer. Car is located in Miami, FL 33133. If you want to see the vehicle and do a test drive do it so BEFORE you bid. Bring your mechanic, friend, etc, no problem. As a matter of fact I strongly encourage bidders to see the vehicle before bidding. Once you win the auction the car is yours! No time to do inspections then. $1000 deposit to be made immediately after auctio ends. Balance in cash, WT or cashiers check from a US Bank with branch in Miami, FL. If you want to use CC or Paypal to pay for the whole car check with me to discuss details. To arrange for a viewing or test dirve call me at 786-999-4811 Leo. Car is parked during work days in Key Biscayne, FL 33149. BIN price is attractive for this kind of package, and reserve price is very reasonable. Car is being offered for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction early, as long as the reserve has not been met. Thanks for watching and happy bidding! |

Jaguar Land Rover names new manufacturing chief for EV transformation
Thu, May 3 2018LONDON — Britain's biggest carmaker Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) is replacing its director for manufacturing as it prepares its plants for an electrified future, the firm said on Thursday. JLR operates three factories in its home market but is building its first electric car, the I-PACE, in Austria. The Indian-owned automaker's Chief Executive Ralf Speth told Reuters earlier this year he is waiting for more information on trading conditions after Brexit before he decides whether to make electric cars in Britain. On Thursday, he said Executive Director for Manufacturing Wolfgang Stadler is retiring from the business, to be replaced by Director of Quality and Automotive Safety Grant McPherson starting July 1. "He will oversee the ongoing investment into our UK and global manufacturing, transforming our plants to enable Jaguar Land Rover's exciting electrified future," Speth said.

Brabus takes on Range Rover Sport with Startech widebody kit
Wed, 26 Feb 2014Of all the tuners this side of AMG, none are as close to Mercedes-Benz as Brabus. After all, when Daimler needed a tuner to spruce up the Smart car, it was Brabus that it turned to. But Brabus tunes vehicles other than Mercedes - it just uses, let's call it, a pen name. It brands them Startech, like the widebody kit it's developed for the new Range Rover Sport and will present at the Geneva Motor Show next week.
The modifications center around the carbon fiber body panels Brabus (excuse us, Startech) has developed for the British sport-ute that give it over two inches of added width. The wider fender flares encompass 23-inch wheels that are forged, ceramic-coated, skinned with low-profile rubber and fitted to a lowered suspension. The front and rear bumpers have been redone in plastic and can be fitted with or without the wider fenders, and there's a three-piece roof spoiler at the back.
Startech is also offering an upgrade for the 3.0-liter twin-turbo-diesel V6 that squeezes out an extra 31 horsepower and 59 pound-feet of torque for a total of 323 hp and 501 lb-ft, dropping the 0-62 time from 7.2 seconds to 6.9. The German tuner also has a wide array of interior modifications on offer, details of which you can read about in the press release below and scope out in the high-resolution image gallery above.
Jaguar Land Rover to skip 2016 Detroit Auto Show
Mon, Nov 23 2015Jaguar Land Rover won't attend the 2016 Detroit Auto Show in January because the automaker will shift its focus to other international shows instead, the company confirmed to Autoblog. "Following a review of our global consumer engagement program, the decision has been made not to exhibit at the Detroit show in 2016," said a company spokesperson told Autoblog. The story was first reported by Automotive News. JLR will continue to attend other US auto shows in Chicago, New York, and Los Angeles; plus those abroad in Geneva, Frankfurt, Paris, Beijing, and Shanghai. "We recognize that the Detroit show is a world-class Tier 1 auto show, however, we have had to make this decision to sharpen our focus as indicated," the spokesperson said. Detroit Auto Show PR Manager Max Muncey told Autoblog that the organizers already knew JLR wouldn't be there. "We are in discussions with other automakers to fill that spot," he said about using the open space. The show expects 70 percent of the floor plan in 2016 to be different from last year. The automaker used the 2015 Detroit Auto Show to announce diesel versions for several models, and it revealed the name for the Jaguar F-Pace there. JLR reportedly now has a plan to cut the equivalent of $6.8 billion in costs without firing workers and increase production to a million annual deliveries by the end of the decade.
