Thank you for taking a minute to look over our beautiful Rover.  This was intended to be our family 4WD for years and years, as evidenced by the care and attention we've consistently paid to the vehicle.  The primary reason for the sale is due to a recent purchase of a long sought after Syncro Doka TDi.  The secondary reason for the sale is that we simply have too many vehicles at this point and would be thrilled to find another Rover fanatic that will enjoy and care for this LWB as we have done.


We purchased this particular LWB on August 26th, 2009 after an extensive search for a clean one meeting our criteria.  The gentleman who sold us the rig was the 3rd owner, maintained the vehicle very well and didn't take it out of CA the entire time he owned it.  He professionally converted the bags to springs, added the center grill fog lamps and always kept it in the garage.  Sadly, his health issues required the sale.  The vehicle had 91,XXX miles on the odo when we made the purchase.

Since we've been enjoying and maintaining the LWB, we've had it meticulously, and professionally, maintained by a Rover specialist who has consistently provided great service.  Roughly 30K miles ago, a complete head gasket replacement was undertaken without sparing a single expense.  They did a run-through on October 3rd to make sure everything checked out for the new caregiver.  The engine timing was reset and brand new spark plugs were installed.  That's it, everything else was good.

New BFG All Terrain T/A KO LT245/70SR16 tires were installed on January 31st, 2012 with 134,067 miles on the odo.  Plenty of life left in each tire, all of which were recently rotated for the new owner.  The headliner is original and only has one area of slight sag on the passenger side rear as seen in the pics.  Seats are all good and do show signs of acceptable wear but DO NOT have any rips or tears.  Carpet, and mats, are all present and in great shape as we kept rubber mats on top of everything.  Please note a small dark stain in the rear luggage area on the drivers side by where the spare is kept.  Can't recall seeing a cleaner back area in any of the other Rovers we've seen, even the gap between the floor and the gate is intact!

All windows work without issue including the moon roof, all lights work (except 3rd brake light) including blinkers, brakes, etc.  The cassette & 6 disk CD sound system operates beautifully.  No weird shakes, shimmies or pulls at all.  The heated seats and cruise control do not operate.  Electric seats work just fine.  As we do not use salt on the roads in Colorado during the winter, no rust worth mentioning.  Parking brake functions property.  Shifts smoothly and has plenty of power.

There is a slight bit of rust forming on the base of the rear window, the winner of this LWB gets a clean replacement (shown in the pics).  The passenger side fog lamp lens is broken, as is the drivers side front amber turn signal lens.  Small rock chips on the nose might want to be touched up by a paint pen before we get into winter, nothing major.  The front brush guard has a spot of bubbling which has recently started to form, also an easy fix.

Comes with a brand new, still in the box, complete brake rebuild kit FT/R 90/95 RC directly from Atlantic British.  It is not in need of a replacement, just figured it'd better go with the vehicle.  The replacement rear glass & frame are clean, rust free and complete.  The 3rd brake light might even work on this one though I've not tested it.  Two keys, two fobs are also included.  Heated windscreen works as well.  All glass, seals & switches are good.  I'm a bit of an OG geek, everything is as original as possible, including the paint.  Zymol on the outside, Neatsfoot oil on the inside, might want to rub some in their respective areas if only to get to know the rig.  I've also not washed the engine, as you can also see from the pics.

This is as complete a description as I can provide right now although I'm happy to answer any specific questions you may have.  If anything else comes to mind, I'll add the information.

Please speak with your spouse, significant other, parents, parole officer, etc. before bidding if you need anyone else permission to make a decision.  Whomever the winning bidder is, please be cool and honor your commitment to finalize the sale.  There is a $250 deposit to be made within 24 hours of winning the auction, final balance due within 7 (seven) business days.  Happy to help with shipping/delivery so long as it is within reason.  With the USD declining in value, and these growing in popularity overseas, we are willing to assist in overseas shipping.

We're not as motivated to squeeze every last dime out of this Rover as we are to help it find a GREAT home.  Accordingly, we've started this auction at $.99 and without reserve.  That is how confident we are in the LWB's condition and appearance.  Please feel free to set a time to inspect it (or have it inspected) and take it for a test spin.

Bid high, bid often and know this is a special Rover LWB in great condition, truly one of the good ones.  The guy who places his bid after you surely will.

Jaguar Land Rover signs manufacturing contract with Magna Steyr

Thu, Jul 2 2015

Jaguar Land Rover is in the midst of implementing big plans. Those include a raft of new models, and a series of new manufacturing facilities to build them. It seems, however, that the former is outpacing the latter, as the British automaker has just announced a new manufacturing contract to have some of its vehicles built off-site. The latest deal is with Magna Steyr, the contract manufacturer based in Graz, Austria. That could see a Land Rover produced at the same facility that has handled the Mercedes G-Class since 1979, or a Jaguar at the same place that assembled the Aston Martin Rapide until 2012 when production was moved back to the UK. The big question at this point is just what JLR will choose to have Magna build on its behalf. The British automaker isn't saying at this point, but a spokesman confirmed to Autoblog that it will be a future product – not an existing line moved from its current production site to the contract manufacturer, as Mercedes recently did with the R-Class. A timeline wasn't announced at this early stage, either, but we're told it will take about 24 months before new Jaguars or Land Rovers start rolling out of the plant in Austria. Just what those new vehicles will be remains to be seen, but Jaguar Land Rover has a number of new products on their way. It is expected to reveal in the near future a new Defender, a replacement for the current LR4/Discovery, the new Evoque convertible, a new XJ flagship sedan, and possibly a new coupe and convertible to take the place of the old XK. We'll soon see the new Jaguar F-Pace, which may be followed by additional crossovers as well. The company also recently introduced the new XE, XF, and Discovery Sport models, though given the timeframes, they'll almost certainly be produced at JLR's existing facilities. It recently opened its first overseas plant in China, has another one under construction in Brazil, and is also said to be considering a plant in North America on either side of the US-Mexican border. Jaguar Land Rover Signs Contract Manufacturing Agreement With Magna Steyr Whitley, UK - Jaguar Land Rover has agreed a manufacturing partnership with Magna Steyr, an operating unit of Magna International Inc, to build some future vehicles in Graz, Austria.

UK electric motor maker YASA expands production 50-fold for EVs

Thu, Feb 1 2018

LONDON — British electric motor manufacturer YASA said on Thursday it was increasing its production capacity from 2,000 to 100,000 units with a new factory to tap into growing demand from carmakers for greener technologies. Automakers are racing to build greener vehicles and improve charge times in a bid to meet rising customer demand and air quality targets but Britain lacks sufficient manufacturing capacity, an area the government is building up. Last year, the government picked a site in central England to house a new automotive battery development facility, which will develop the processes required to manufacture the latest battery advancements. On Thursday, YASA, based near the English city of Oxford, said it had raised another 15 million pounds ($21 million) as part of its expansion. "Our customers are looking to adopt innovative new technologies such as YASA's axial-flux electric motors and controllers in order to meet the needs of the rapidly expanding hybrid and pure electric automotive market," said Chief Executive Chris Harris. The firm exports 80 percent of production and has worked with companies including Britain's two biggest carmakers Jaguar Land Rover and Nissan as well as Aston Martin. JLR will decide this year whether to build electric cars in its home market, previously citing factors such as pilot testing and support from science and government as pre-requisites.

Weekly Recap: Ford GT inspires guitar, foosball table, sailboat

Sat, Apr 18 2015

Ford design vice president Moray Callum had just wrapped up a briefing on the interior of the Ford GT last month, but something seemed out of place. He grinned and pointed behind him, "You might be wondering why I have a boat behind me," he said mischievously. It was there because Ford set its designers on a mission to stretch and showcase their talents: design non-automotive objects inspired by the interior of the GT supercar. Callum received quite a response, too. His team produced a guitar, a foosball table (yeah bro!), a racing sailboat, a Wi-Fi speaker and some furniture. As the veteran design chief explained, "It's a really great exercise both to highlight our designers' talents, but also to really see how our design philosophy can work and how you can use it and get a common response back from a worldwide design team." Guitar View 25 Photos The objects have been on display this week at the Salone del Mobile furniture and fashion design fair in Milan, Italy, where Ford has had a presence for three years. There's also a light exhibition that apparently was inspired by the GT, as well. While this might seem a little far-fetched for the automaker, Ford said exhibitions like the Salone del Mobile give its designers another way to be creative and ultimately produce striking interior style. Ford wants this to be a differentiator, as research shows consumers are placing emphasis on the layout and features inside when they're making a decision about buying a new car. It's a little light hearted – but it's also potentially big business. Other News & Notes Cadillac CT6 platform could be used for Buick General Motors product chief Mark Reuss said the Cadillac CT6 platform could be used for a large Buick, though "not yet," Automotive News reported. The underpinnings can accommodate rear-wheel or all-wheel drive and would give Buick the large flagship it lacks. The report jibes with comments Reuss made at a roundtable with Autoblog and other reporters at the New York Auto Show. When asked if Buick had space for a large car on the CT6 chassis, he replied, "Yeah, I think it does. Yeah, I think we do." Buick has revamped its lineup in recent years with attractive crossovers and small and midsize sedans, but hasn't added the proverbial flagship that's yearned for by enthusiasts. Buick surprised industry observers with the stylish Avenir concept at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year that raised the possibility of a halo sedan.
