             Remarkably clean 2001 Land Rover Discovery Series II. This is the third year of the Discovery Series II, and an unusual LE model. It is a super-straight, totally RUST-FREE DII throughout, to include chassis, undercarriage, roofline and gutters, door panels, fenders, quarter panels, door sills, rocker panels and tailgate areas.

 This is a TWO-OWNER DII, originally sold at Land Rover of Encino in Anaheim, in Southern California, where it lived until 2004 when it relocated to Placerville, in the central Valley. A CALIFORNIA LAND ROVER ITS WHOLE LIFE until now. Original purchaser owned until sold to the second owner, a computer designer in San Ramon in late 2012. Completely stock and original. NO towing, NO off-roading, One minor accident reported ( the right front plastic is somewhat bruised as pictured) and NO issues. FLAWLESS CARFAX report, and it scores 50 out of  30-54 rating.

It is fairly loaded with most Power amenities except DVD system. It also has the very desirable Central Differential Lock ( CDL), unique to only a couple of years in the DII, this being one of them. This Discovery II has the dual Power-sunroof option ( both work fine and DO NOT leak), roof bars, unique KALAHARI alloy wheels  and factory Tow package ( although nothing has been towed). 

               Stock, reliable 4.0L BOSCH engine. 171K original freeeway miles. Less than 1000 miles on a complete top-end rebuild, to include:

Cylinder heads hot tanked and magna-fluxed

Resurfaced cylinder heads

3-angle valve job

New head gaskets

New valve cover gaskets

All-new exhaust gaskets

New shims

New seals

New Plenum intake kit revision

No engine issues or other drama; the powertrain runs GREAT. This Discovery II runs and drives VERY well and drives nicely both in town and in the highway.

All Power accessories work well, to include its ICE-COLD Air Conditioning system, both Power sunroofs, all four Power windows, both Power heated seats, both Power mirrors, and all instruments, heater/defroster, horn, its factory CD player and all lights.

There are NO service lights on ( NO TC, CHECK ENGINE, ABS or HDC lights turned off or reset). 

 Considering its vintage, This Discovery II is remarkably clean, and the photos do not do it justice~! The 2001 SE is one of the best years to own. It is turn-key, WITHOUT the usual head-gasket issues nor overheating, and it will make a great traveler or off-road trekker. 



              The interior upholstery is in remarkable shape, with NO rips, tears or splits of the leather. Very rare, special-order Two-tone upholstery. The dash is mint, with no cracks or weathering. The carpets and all door panels are very clean, to include the rear cargo area.

Clean headliner, without any significant sagging, staining or damage.  Beautiful Forest-Green finish shines nicely, and looks very sharp. No blemishes, fading nor oxidation of the clearcoat or finish, to include the roof and hood areas. Nice factory-optional 18" KALAHARI alloy wheels with radial tires mounted on them; they have approximately 90% tread all around or better. 


              Feel free to EM or call with pertinent questions or serious inquiries. I can be reached at (650) 430-4660, no later than 9pm PST, please.

I have spent over 20 years in this great country's military and have owned Land Rovers of various types and vintage for nearly 35 years. While I am not a mechanic, I am an avid Land Rover enthusiast ( I own four others) and consider myself fairly well-versed on most of the Land Rover quirks and have assessed this DII as a VERY solid, straight and rust-free example of a Series II Land Rover Discovery.

 Honest CARFAX REPORT. CLEAR title. NO pets or children in it. Always adult-owned, and its condition reflects it.


        Overall, a super-straight, good-running and good looking DII with the 4.0L engine, thorough top end rebuild, ready for trips, off-road excursions or runaround vehicle,  with a reasonably opening bid and no reserve.  Runs and drives well and it looks very nice. 

* I reserve the right to end this listing at any time prior to the end of the auction, should a serious offer or a BUY-IT-NOW offer present itself.


I am glad to assist with NATIONWIDE or OVERSEAS delivery at the most economical shipping rate available. I can do all coordination from here, and you pay the transporter cost directly to the shipper upon receipt of the Discovery.


              Should you be the winning bidder, I would like to receive payment within THREE business days, please. Cashiers check or Bank draft are preferred. Personal, business or annuity checks may be utilized, but must clear funds source prior to any transportation arrangements being made. Another option is a Bank wire transfer to the local CHASE Bank branch here in town. That expedites the process considerably and allows for faster shipping arrangements.

Upon receipt of payment, I will overnight the title and Bill of sale to the winning bidder.


Finally, PLEASE be sure to ask any and all questions prior to placing a bid, and prior to the end of the auction. If you have a ZERO rating, you MUST contact me in advance, prior to placing any bids. Not doing so will get you blocked and prevented from any further bidding in my listings. NO EXCEPTIONS.

Please ensure that your source of funds is in place BEFORE placing a bid or making an offer. We are all adults here; let's not engage in silly games because it is counterproductive and a waste of time for all.


       Thank you for your interest~!

Jaguar may join the FWD, small-car parade

Tue, 13 Aug 2013

Was 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.

Jaguar appoints Joe Eberhardt as North American President

Thu, 19 Dec 2013

Jaguar Land Rover North America has appointed a new president, Joachim Eberhardt. The German exec, 50, had previously done stints at Chrysler Group, DaimlerChrysler UK, Mercedes-Benz USA and Daimler-Benz.
Eberhardt joins JLR NA in a good, but challenging time for the company. It's fresh off the launch of the Range Rover Sport and Jaguar F-Type, which have been subject to rave reviews, and its overall sales are up 21 percent over 2012. Still, as Automotive News points out, the two manufacturers face a fight to become the equal of A-list competitors like BMW and Mercedes in the eyes of consumers.
"Joe brings a proven industry track record and valuable global leadership experience in luxury sales, service and marketing. We look forward to Joe leading our North American team in working with our retail networks to further grow the business and better serve our customers," JLR's group sales operations director, Andy Goss, said.

Jaguar demanding customer data from reluctant dealers

Tue, 25 Feb 2014


Nearly every major business is collecting consumer data these days, and keeping that data secure has come to the forefront of many customer's minds. Jaguar Land Rover North America's decision to begin requesting more customer info from its dealer network appears unfortunately timed, however. If it had come a few years ago, it might have been ignored, but in today's climate of heightened awareness, a few dealers are pushing back. To put the showrooms in an even tougher position, JLR NA is threatening to deny quarterly incentives if they do not turn over the customer data, according to Automotive News.
JLR NA instated the nationwide plan, which it calls Single View CRM, on February 7, but according to Stuart Schorr, Jaguar Land Rover North America Vice President of Communications, the automaker has been negotiating with its dealers to institute the new program for over a year. Schorr tells Autoblog that no financial information is being shared, noting that such data is limited to customer details, including things like what vehicles they own and whether they have any pending service. The initiative is meant to "improve customers' and owners' engagement with the brand," he said. Also, the company is not accessing dealer data itself; instead showrooms are asked to enter the info into JLR's database.
