Up for auction is a 2001 Land Rover Discovery SE7. Vehicle is in great shape for the year and mileage, and has been spared no expense in past service history as shown in the pictures. Truck has had over $11,000 in service done recently, most importantly being the head gasket replaced that is prone to failure on many of these Discovery's. Truck runs and drives great, 4WD works great, transmission shifts smooth, doesn't overheat or anything, no noises. All electrics work, including both sunroofs, with exception to one of the windows which is intermittent, and the rear hatch lock sticks sometimes when operated by the power locks. This Land Rover has the factory LR Alarm system and hasn't been modified or an aftermarket installed. Truck is stock with exception of the radio, which is a premium aftermarket unit that works great. Has the factory CD changer under the passenger seat. Front bumper covers on all Disco 2's are cheap plastic, so this didn't have one when I got it - it has a modified steel bumper which I think looks good. Another common problem with these Land Rovers is the air suspension which fails over time... the previous owner had a professional coil spring conversion kit installed and it now handles even better off-road. Truck is originally from Georgia and was in Georgia until this year; still has a Georgia title. It needs a few things - Number one being a power steering pump seal. It leaks fluid and cost $30 for the seal kit... pump works fine and when fluid is in it, it works great - just needs a proper seal. The windshield has a crack in it but not all the way through, it could use a new rear lower tail light lens, and the brakes are supposedly nearing replacement from what I was told. The 'three amigos' light is on because of a brake pad sensor, it didn't affect the way it drives so I didn't bother with it. It also has an intermittent check engine light on from an EVAP code which I originally was told was an oxygen sensor, but again it runs fine and doesn't have any kind of misfire so I didn't bother with it. One of the Land Rover independent shops in Georgia told me it was a $50 EVAP part in the rear of the truck but didn't affect the way it runs. It could also use some adhesive on the headliner as that is starting to sag a little bit from the Georgia heat, and could definitely use a nice detailing and a few touch ups/ding removal, someone to buff the clear coat and really get a good compound on the old rover. Undercarriage is solid. Mechanically it's great... I just put on brand new OEM spark plugs right from the Land Rover dealer about two weeks ago when I got it out of storage just as a preventative maintenance item. Comes with original paperwork and tool kits. See attached pics for recent work - if any questions call me anytime at 315.464.0636. Truck is located in Rome, NY. $500 Deposit due within 24 hours of auction close, truck must be picked up or shipped out of here within 5 days of auction close unless you talk to me before hand.

Jaguar Land Rover opens winter testing facility in Minnesota
Wed, 12 Dec 2012As it begins the rollout of the all-wheel-drive Jaguar XJ and XF models, Jaguar Land Rover has just announced that it has opened a new facility in northern Minnesota for winter testing. Located in International Falls, MN (on the US and Canadian border), the British automaker says it is one of the coldest locations in the Continental US. Jaguar's new Instinctive All Wheel Drive system was developed primarily to help sell more cars in the northern US, so it only makes sense to open a testing area in the US as well.
With temperatures that can drop to minus 55 degrees Fahrenheit, International Falls was chosen to mimic some of the worst weather a Jaguar or Land Rover will ever see. The grounds house testing chambers, various road surfaces and even a frozen lake. This new facility complements the hot-weather testing grounds in Phoenix, AZ.
The official press release is posted below.
Jaguar-Land Rover builds millionth vehicle at Halewood
Fri, 29 Nov 2013Jaguar-Land Rover is not what you'd call a volume automaker by any stretch of the imagination. But in the dozen years since it started manufacturing at its Halewood plant near Liverpool, England, the automaker has already built its millionth vehicle.
The landmark vehicle is a Range Rover Evoque, done up in white with red roof and mirrors, black wheels and a red and black interior. The crossover is set to be donated to Cancer Research UK, which will auction it off next year to help fund its projects in the north-west of the country.
Halewood started manufacturing the Jaguar X-Type in 2001, then went on to assemble the Land Rover LR2 / Freelander 2 before taking on production of the Evoque a year and a half ago. The facility reached the 300,000-unit milestone just last year as production moved to a 24-hour cycle for the first time in either marque's history.
Jaguar may join the FWD, small-car parade
Tue, 13 Aug 2013Was it right for Chevrolet to detune the 1975 Corvette's base engine to 165 horsepower? Was Aston Martin wrong to make the Toyota iQ-based Cygnet? Is BMW crazy to be testing the new 1 Series with three-cylinder engines and front-wheel drive? It seems now, just as in the 1970s and 1980s, that emissions regulations and social considerations are driving some automakers to adopt unbefitting practices to maintain acceptance in the eyes of governments and consumers. Jaguar has jumped on the bandwagon, and is considering development of small, frugal, front-wheel-drive cars to help lower Jaguar Land Rover's average vehicle CO2 levels in light of tightening European emissions regulations, Autocar reports.
By 2020, the European Union expects the model range of every manufacturer to average 95 grams per kilometer, which is a new law passed by the European Parliament in April. Manufacturers who make more than 300,000 vehicles per year must meet these targets, and JLR is expected to be producing up to 700,000 vehicles per year by then. CO2 regulations after 2020 will only get stricter, as EU politicians already are talking about lowering CO2 levels to between 68 g/km and 78 g/km. (To put that in perspective, Autocar posits that driving a fully charged electric vehicle in Europe produces about 75 g/km when factoring in the power-generation infrastructure.)
Jaguar has some choices here, but so far they all have drawbacks. It could develop a new, compact chassis architecture for a line of compact vehicles, but the investment required for such a project could be prohibitively expensive. Jaguar has been looking into using the Land Rover Evoque platform for a small SUV, Autocar reports, but Land Rover brand manager John Edwards raises issue with such a plan, saying it may not be financially feasible.
