1999 Land Rover Range Rover 4.6 Hse Callaway Edition 1 Of 220 Made P38 on 2040-cars

I am selling my rare 1999 Range Rover Callaway. It has managed to hold up well over the years. Its stately appearance inside out still gets compliments. These special rovers were shipped to Callaway performance in Connecticut for performance work boosting the power and drivetrain. For specifics you can search for Callaway Range Rover, the Callaway website will pop up with all the specs. It runs and drives well but there are a few common rover problems, including a slipped liner in the engine. For those unfamiliar with this condition, the cylinder sleeve will start to tap when the engine reaches operating temperature. It is more of a nuisance due to the tap. Rover drivers as well as myself have driven their rovers with slipped liners thousands of miles without any failure. Simple solution is to pin the liners. Second issue is that the viscous coupling in the transfer case has seized up, so it does not slip as it normally should. A quick fix that was performed so the truck is still 100% drivable is to remove the front propeller shaft, which will come with the purchase of this truck. My local salvage yard will sell these complete transfer cases for 200, which will come with a functioning viscous coupling, which is easily swapped into the Callaway transfer case without removing it from the truck. Send another 200 and i'll pick one up from the salvage yard if you want. The climate control works, but the display dosnt really work as you can see in the picture, the vents do blow cold air with AC but i feel it should be colder and blow harder. The AC compressor cycles like it needs a charge.
The severity of the above problems are purely subjective since the truck as it sits runs and drives 100%. I've taken it for 15+ hour trips in this condition without any problems, sometimes the slipped liner settles and will be quiet for a while, but most of the time you can hear it. The truck looks pretty good, some hazing on the hood but can be buffed out, i did it once when almost a year ago and it looked great. The hood has some minor dents from someone sitting on it i think. Lastly, the previous owner had a high end Alpine Navigation entertainment system installed as well as had the air suspension converted to coil springs. |

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.
Jaguar Land Rover says key models in short supply, some have six-month wait lists
Fri, 08 Aug 2014Care for a bit more proof that the Jaguar Land Rover portfolio of vehicles is the best it's ever been? Well, the Indian-owned pair of brands saw a record year in 2013, while 2014 has seen a 14-percent increase in sales. The crazy thing is, though, is that figure could be even higher, provided the company had the production capacity.
JLR is running a six-month waiting list on two of its most popular models, the Range Rover Sport (above) and Range Rover. According to Mark White, the company's chief technologist for body engineering, the blame can be placed on the paint shop at the company's Solihull factory, in the UK.
"We will probably max out the paint shop before we max out the body shop. Putting the second body shop in has given us the flexibility to ebb and flow the different models that go through there and meet the capacity demands we've got," White told Automotive News. "However, you always hit a bottleneck somewhere. And the paint shop is probably going to be the next biggest obstacle."
Ford's J Mays feels vindicated by Fusion reception
Tue, 25 Sep 2012It's hard to think back now, but the same man overseeing the design of the 2013 Ford Fusion also presided over a rather lackluster period in Ford design, highlighted by vehicles like the Five Hundred and Freestyle. With the redesigned Fusion receiving high praise, J Mays tells Automotive News that he feels vindicated from criticisms suggesting he's not a daring enough designer.
When Mays took over as lead of design in 1997, he admits to having quite an ego ("My head would barely fit through the door some days. I've long since gotten over myself") and the workload to match. With the Blue Oval's portfolio full of premium brands like Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo at that point, along with the bread-and-butter Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models, Mays certainly had quite the challenge.
It was in the mid-2000s that Mays took over just the premium brands, and took on the new title of Chief Creative Officer. At the time, Mays endured some criticism for looking backwards to retro styling, rather than setting a new standard for American car design - criticism that Mays says he is free from with the all-new Fusion.
