Minimal wear on driver's seat, one minor crease (no paint damage) in bodywork by right rear lights, some evidence of paint touchup from previous owner, no accident history or evidence of any rust."

You're looking a really strong, low-mileage Disco II, where all the typical maintenance issues have already been addressed.  In the past two weeks this truck has had:


Full transmission fluid replacement
Full brake fluid flush
Full coolant flush
Engine oil & filter replaced
New air filter
New power steering pump & fluid, plus new O-rings on the lines

And within the past six months, it's also had:

Throttle body coolant adapter plate replaced
Fuel vapor evaporative purge valve replaced
New pollen/dust air filter element under the hood (the long skinny one that most people ignore)
New oxygen sensor (Sensor 1, Bank 1; the other 3 all test out fine)
Replacement neutral safety switch (rivets failed on the first one, allowing water and gunk to get inside)
New 4-wire trailer harness adapter from Atlantic British
New retainer pin on driver's door strap
Various new finisher caps on wiper cowl & front seat armrests
In-dash vehicle-specific phone mount from ProClip USA -- you can buy a fitted cradle for your particular phone
New latching fitting for under-hood battery box lid
New press-pins for rear gate trim panel, and repair to moisture barrier underneath
New rear wiper arm
New wiper blades on all 3 wipers
Replacement gaiter/boot for handbrake
A replacement OEM in-dash CD player

It also has an add-on Bluetooth adapter from Grom Audio, which provides support for Bluetooth hands-free telephone use, Bluetooth streaming audio, and a standard aux-in audio connection and separate dedicated USB charging connector.  Note:  this replaces the factory CD changer, which is still mounted under the passenger seat but is disconnected.  

The truck comes with two correct OEM remote keys, one of which is brand new and hasn't been used since I bought it.  All owner's manuals are also included in their little pouch.

It has the correct OEM front and rear rubber floor mats, and a new rear rubber cargo mat from Weathertech.  Tires are Falken on/off-road, in good condition.  Factory tools are all present and in good condition, including the storage pouch, which has no tears or zipper damage.  I suspect most of the tools haven't been used.

The car runs strong, all the necessary OBD2 system monitors test successfully, there is no evidence of head gasket problems, and every item I previously noticed needed attention has been addressed.  

On the interior, the headliner is excellent, the seats are excellent, and I added the OEM heated seat switches and trim panel just a few months ago, so those work great as well.  All the power functions (seats, windows, mirrors, sunroofs) work great and at full/normal speed.  All in-dash switches, lights, and functions work 100%.

The correct factory retractable rear cargo cover is present, and I also have a hard-copy factory shop manual, two types of touch-up paint (a pen and a small spray can, both correct Oslo Blue), and an assortment of additional emblems and trim caps as spares.  For a bit of fun, I have Union Jack valve stem caps on the truck as well.  

SPECIAL INCENTIVE FOR BUY-IT-NOW!

If you hit Buy It Now, or the truck ultimately sells via regular auction at or above the BIN price ($9999), the winning bidder will receive the following additional items:

1)  Crossbars for factory roof rack
2)  Rear hitch-mounted aluminum cargo carrier, able to carry 500 lbs, plus a folding ramp if you wanted to load a lawnmower, wheelchair, or whatever else you have
3)  Rear hitch-mounted folding double bike-rack
4)  Awesome Smithsonian National Zoo vinyl-cling rear window sticker

That's easily another $600 worth of accessories.  

To be very clear:  none of these items will be included unless the truck sells AT OR ABOVE the original Buy It Now price.  If the truck is sent via transporter, rather than picked up in person, the rear seats will be folded down and these items will be stored in the back of the truck.  Neither the carrier nor the bike rack fit cleanly unless you first remove the spare tire, but they are just fine after that.  I will not give credit or otherwise discount the price in lieu of receiving those items; if you don't want them, I will keep them, but the price will stay the same.  

If the truck sells above reserve but below the BIN price, and you want any of these items, I will add them for $200 each (for items 1-3, or 4 if you insist), just let me know which ones you want.

Truck is still being driven occasionally so mileage will increase a small amount.

Jaguar Land Rover says half its models will be hybrids or all-electric by 2020

Tue, Nov 22 2016

Neither Jaguar nor Land Rover has ever been mistaken for big-time green-car brands, but their parent company is trying to change that. Jaguar Land Rover looks to have as many as half of its models be of the hybrid, plug-in hybrid, or battery-electric variety by 2020, CEO Ralf Speth said at the Los Angeles Auto Show last week. Speth made the announcement while showing off the I-Pace concept compact crossover. The green-car expansion would mark a natural extension of Jaguar Land Rover's decision last year to double the headcount in its advanced-engineering department. As for the five-seat I-Pace, that model will be Jaguar Land Rover's first production electric vehicle when it starts sales in 2018. The car will have a 90-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery pack that will deliver a single-charge range of about 220 miles. Boasting more than 400 horsepower, the car will also be able to go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in about four seconds. What's also notable is that Jaguar says the model has been designed to be an electric vehicle from the ground up, and hasn't been converted from the platform of an existing model. Of course, Jaguar late last year said it would enter a team in the FIA Formula E electric-vehicle open-wheel racing circuit, so the British badge has made recent noise about upping its green-car quotient. As for the I-Pace, the automaker hasn't revealed pricing on the model, but it's safe to say that it will be quite high. Check out a three-minute video of Speth's presentation here. Related Video:

Jaguar Land Rover names ousted Renault boss as new CEO

Tue, Jul 28 2020

LONDON — Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) has picked ousted Renault boss Thierry Bollore as its next chief executive, with a mission to return Britain's biggest carmaker to profit after a big hit from the COVID-19 pandemic. Bollore took over at Renault in January 2019 after the fall of Carlos Ghosn, but was always viewed as close to the French carmaker's longtime boss and was pushed out in October when the company was looking for a fresh start. Bollore will take over at JLR on Sept. 10, replacing Ralf Speth, whose tenure ends after more than 10 years. "It will be my privilege to lead this fantastic company through what continues to be the most testing time of our generation," Bollore said in a statement on Tuesday. JLR was hit this year first by disruption to sales in China and then by lockdowns across Europe and North America as the COVID-19 outbreak spread around the globe. In 2019, it cut jobs to address tumbling diesel sales, which helped it return to profit. But as the pandemic struck, it slumped to a pretax loss of 422 million pounds ($545 million) for the year ended March 31, 2020. The company has already taken steps to tackle the crisis, including agreeing to a loan facility of around $700 million with lenders in China and further staff reductions. JLR is also in talks with the British government over potential support, according to media reports. Bollore takes over a business that built just over 500,000 cars in 2019/20. He faces a number of tasks, including how to handle the Jaguar brand, which underperforms the Land Rover marque, how quickly to electrify its lineup and a potential hit from Brexit if trade barriers are imposed. JLR has a partnership with BMW on electrification, and parent company Tata Motors recently recommitted to the company. "Tata Group recognizes and values Jaguar Land Rover's future potential highly," said JLR Chairman Natarajan Chandrasekaran earlier this month. "That is why this company is central to our global automotive presence – a presence that we intend to develop for years to come."

Why Land Rover's reluctant to show concepts: Chinese clones

Thu, Oct 19 2017

While the Chinese auto industry continues to grow and expand with new and original products, a number of automakers still refuse to play by the rules. Rather than coming up with original designs, these automakers shamelessly copy designs from other automakers, slapping their badge on the front as if it were an original product. According to Auto Express, Land Rover has grown tired of dealing with these frauds to the point that it's essentially stopped showing concept cars in order to stave off these clones. One of the most notable and brazen examples of these Chinese copycats is the LandWind X7. While that car looks like an obvious ripoff of the Range Rover Evoque, complaints by Jaguar Land Rover were dismissed, and the X7 hit the market for about a third of the price of the Evoque. Further efforts by JLR have done nothing to halt or change the car's production. It seems Chinese authorities are more interested in protecting the home team than upholding copyright laws. Land Rover design boss Gerry McGovern said the automaker was "wary of showing new concepts" because they just give these competitors time to work up a copy. Land Rover's latest model, the Velar, debuted in Geneva in production form. Skipping concepts may not stop competitors from making copies, but it does give Land Rover a huge head start when it comes to production.
