2002 Range Rover HSE 103K miles!

Background:

As I’m sure you can already see, this vehicle is gorgeous! With its low miles, low ownership, and full service profile, this will be a distinctive Range Rover that should last you for many years to come. It comes to me from a client that traded up to a newer LR4 – their driveway littered with G-Classes and M-Series BMW’s.  Point being: This truck has ALWAYS been meticulously cared for.  If you’ve been looking for a distinctive, quality 02 HSE, your search is over!

Service History:

As a Land Rover technician whose passion for the marquee inspires my dedication, I always use the best genuine parts and expert skill with their fitment.  This truck does not overheat, hesitate or stumble and the shift quality from the transmission is excellent. All windows, sunroofs, controls and options work as they should.  The following is a list of all of the servicing done to ensure that your ownership experience is as enjoyable as possible!

  1. Head gasket service including: cooling system fluid flush and renewal, head gasket renewal, head stretch bolt renewal, intake resealed, valve covers resealed,  throttle body de-ice plate resealed, exhaust system resealed, engine oil and filter renewed.

  2. 30K mile interval service including: genuine spark plugs, New STI spark plug wires, New air element, New Belt, Differential fluids renewed, transfer case fluid renewed, transmission fluid renewed, all safety components inspected and adjusted to factory spec.

  3. ABS System Service – Full system flush and brake fluid renewal

  4. Brand new factory hoses installed.

  5. Brand new factory radiator and thermostat installed.

  6. Brand new genuine brake pads and rotors installed all around.

  7. Brand new headliner installed.

  8. Brand new battery installed.

  9. Brand new Goodyear 255/15/18"s installed all around.

  10. Newly fitted Bilstein Performance Shock and Spring Suspension.

  11. Clean California title in hand, ready to go!

 

Aesthetics:

This Black on Ash 02 is stunning.  With nearly 15 years of family service to its credit, it is still a head turner around town.  As you can see from the pictures, she details beautifully and the paint is smooth to the touch.  All of the woodwork is rich and dark and chip/crack free.  The leather seats are sumptuous and the overall feeling inside the cabin is truly one of lavish comfort. She offers an executive level of appointments that create a feeling of true confidence behind the wheel.  Additionally, she is a rust free vehicle, the windows, doors and sunroof seal nicely and the cabin ride is quiet. The original factory floor mats are in great condition and the 18” hurricane style wheels are near perfect. 

Like most Californians who have spent their life in the sun, this truck has its share of surface blemishes but nothing that takes away from the overall look that – in my opinion – is still red-carpet ready! You will find the average amount of parking lot variety dings and paint fade (most noticeably) on the forefront of the roof.  The interior may have minor flaws, but too few to mention. There are no rips or tears on the seats, and as said, the overall feel is that of a clean, OEM feeling and new smelling truck.

Operation & Performance:

This truck is a rocket ship!  The 4.6L V8 is as healthy as you would hope for from the vintage and fully serviced as it is you surge off the line with all the available power you could want.  Toggle the available “Sport” mode and this thing beats the pants off of anything you’re next to.  The ride onto the freeway is that of total confidence – she drives as straight as an arrow with no shimmies, shakes, or wanderings of any kind.  The handling is effortless and quiet and the shift quality from the transmission is velvety smooth.  You don’t even feel it shifting from gear to gear!

The remote handset operates all doors.  All handles, locks, windows, sunroof, & latches work perfect. All available multi function controls from the driver input stalks work perfect, the telescoping steering wheel operates perfectly inward, outward, upward and down for a tailored fit to the driver.  Power seats and split folding benched work perfect and yes, the rear upper tailgate stays up on its own!  AC/Heat/Factory nav all work great and all headlight, foglight, tail light, and blinker functions work perfectly too.

EAS VS. Coil Spring Suspension:

This is the most widely debated topic in Range Rover history.  Is air suspension a good thing or bad thing?  In my opinion, it depends on preference. The purists will insist that EAS is what makes the Range Rover a Range Rover. The pragmatists will argue that the original Range Rover… in fact, the line-up for the first 22 years never had it and was celebrated because of the amazing no-fuss, all-performance coil spring suspension.

This truck was fitted with the best coil spring suspension that you can buy.  The Bilstein suspension system on this truck is AMAZINGLY plush… while still giving you aggressive handling with virtually no body roll while cornering.  Dare I say it… but this set up feels better than any recent EAS vehicles that I’ve been in… How good are Bilsteins?  Well, put it this way: I RACE professionally in my Range Rover Classic with a coil-over Bilstein suspension system.

What’s nice about this truck is that should you choose to, you can retrofit EAS with relative ease as the core of the system is still intact. All EAS plumbing, tanks, sensors, driers, ECU and harness are still there.  The choice is yours; and you can get into this P38 knowing that you have reliability and comfort from the get-go.

Purchasing, Perspective & Why Buy From Me:

No one puts a Land Rover together better than me, PERIOD.  It’s the vehicle I drive, and the vehicle I RACE.  Nearly two decades of Rover ownership and service are poured into every Rover that I see into new hands. 

 All too common are sales from the brokerage houses where a vehicle will receive a detail service and nothing else.  Leaving maintenance work for the pleasure of the new owner; often time’s immediately following reception of the vehicle.  Beware of any vintage Rover that does not share the same service points as the ones I advertise with my trucks.  They are ESSENTIAL for long term reliability and any Classic without these services are ticking time bombs.  I am not a Land Rover tech that drives home in a Honda Civic.  I come from a long line of British Car technicians and Live, Breathe and even RACE the green oval.  I understand ALL of your concerns and needs and do my best to ensure that you will be happy based on a simple, yet powerful concept:  DOES THIS VEHICLE MAKE ME HAPPY?  WOULD I PUT MY WIFE AND BABY IN IT? WOULD I LOVE TO HAVE IT?  The answer is always yes.  And that’s when I know they are ready.  I care.  I know you do, too.

Vehicles that I see off not only have domestic endpoints, they go to the farthest reaches of the planet.  They have gone to Europe, Asia, The South Pacific, Central America and currently, a client recently purchased a trail-ready 88 RRC and is en route to Tierra Del Fuego after I picked him up in the vehicle at LAX when he flew in to receive it!  The point here is, I believe in each and every vehicle that I usher in to new ownership.  Please see my recent vehicle sales and I’m sure you’ll be impressed.  I have A LOT of copy-cats out there.  If you aren’t buying one from me… its, well, NOT from me even though other sellers go so far as to “cut-n-paste” my listings!!!

While these vehicles are all totally looked after, they are not immune to future service needs and flaws.  They are used vehicles and normal flaws and wear should be expected as the vast majority of them are pushing 20+ years old.  As I have said, my wife has driven this truck faithfully with no operational complaints but I invite you to ask ANY AND ALL QUESTIONS NOW!  There are no queries too obscure; your satisfaction is the goal here.  Additionally, eBay offers a 3rd party inspection service to verify ALL of your acquisition needs IN PERSON.  Purchase of the vehicle = SATISFACTION.  Once this auction is over, the winning bid and purchase imply that satisfaction has been achieved and will be understood as such.  There are no warranties offered here, but that said, there is always an unspoken “hand-shake” warranty meaning that should something fail within a reasonable amount of time – say a hose, a coilpack, a distributor, blower motors, an alternator, a switch, etc – I will be happy to send you what I have available at that time.

This is a NO RESERVE AUCTION so you are bidding to win!  Please make sure that you bid ONLY what you are prepared to pay.  This means, when the auction is over, and the winning bid is placed, this becomes THE SALE PRICE of the vehicle.  Under no circumstances does it open the door to negotiate or back out of your commitment.  The people bidding for this vehicle actually want it.  Do not spoil their chances at ownership by arm-chair bidding.  Yes, everyone joins eBay at some point, and there is no prejudice against lower transaction numbers here – HOWEVER – if I suspect and/or become aware of any insincerity on the part of said bidder, I reserve the right to cancel all bids from and block that insincere bidder from this auction.

Completion of this transaction is fairly straight forward.  Once the auction is over, I will be contacting the winner immediately and we can discuss the easiest way to finalize the transition.

Who is this truck for:

This truck is for anyone looking for a great Range Rover.  Its fully serviced, ready to go, its got great miles, low ownership and because of the vintage and styling it would make an excellent executive level commuter, estate guest vehicle, first car, gift for your soon-to-be college student and even an excellent base for a luxury off-road expedition vehicle.  Be that as it may, the most important question is what will you do with her? There’s plenty of miles left to cover this summer – so get out there and don’t look back; no matter where this capable vehicle will take you!  Thanks and happy rovering!!!

Land Rover knows where you're going and how you want to get there

Thu, 10 Jul 2014

Land Rover makes some of the most capable SUVs on or off the road, and some of the most luxurious too. But the British automaker isn't about to rest on those laurels - not when every other automaker assaults its territory with sport-utes of their own. That's why Land Rover has been working so hard on nifty new technologies from a depth-sounder in the door mirror of the Range Rover Sport an augmented-reality head-up display that makes the whole front of the car virtually disappear.
JLR's newest tech may not be ground-breaking, but its integration promises to make driving around town that much easier. The system syncs with the driver's smartphone and uses all manner of parameters - including driver habits, weather and location as well as the presence of other passengers - to make the commute go as smoothly as possible. Get into the car and it'll set the seat and mirrors for you. No big deal, because lots of cars do that. But it'll also set up the nav system to take you to work and the sound system to play your favorite music. Okay, getting more interesting.
Get in with your kids and it'll know not only that you've got to drop them off at school first (or remind you to pack their gym bag if they've got soccer practice after school that day) but that they might not enjoy that Chumbawamba album you've been listening to since college and it'll play something it knows you'll all enjoy based on your listening history. Then it'll switch back to Tubthumping once the kids are out, remind you of your morning meeting and alert those you're scheduled to meet with if you get stuck in traffic while finding you a better route to get there, monitoring fuel levels all the while and telling you if you'll need to tank up before you reach your destination. It knows if you like calling your mother on the drive to work and will lower the air suspension to make it easier to hop out once you get there.

Jaguar Land Rover and Chery investing in Chinese plant

Sat, 24 Nov 2012

While the European auto market for Jaguar and Land Rover is waning, Chinese car buyers can't get enough of the British marques. To meet that demand, Tata Motors, parent company of Jag and Land Rover, is partnering with Chinese automaker Chery Automobile Co.
The two announced plans to invest $1.75 billion to build a new plant and create a new, China-focused brand. 2014 is the target for completion of the factory. Jaguars and Land Rovers built at the facility will be the first ever produced outside the UK according to the Associated Press. The JV will be called Chery Jaguar Land Rover Automotive Company Ltd.
The announcement comes less than a month after JLR announced it would open a design studio in China. It's not clear from the reports whether the two announcements are part of the same JV or two separate plans.

Jaguar crossover won't be based on Evoque or have off-road chops

Wed, 21 Aug 2013

Jaguar's long-rumored crossover won't be built on the same platform as the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque, says the Australian site Car Advice. The future of the new CUV remains uncertain, but if Jaguar does dip its toes into the SUV/crossover pool, though, the new vehicle will likely be a car-based soft roader, lacking (or perhaps more appropriately, not needing) the off-road-engineered chops inherent in Land Rover's small CUV platform.
Jaguar product planner Steven De Ploey explained to Car Advice, "There's many groups around the world [platform sharing] - obviously Volkswagen Group is doing it all the time - but I think we have to be careful. He added, "Jaguar is something quite different... It's about capability, but very much on-road focused capability." That seems to gel with our suspicions that the XQ, as it's expected to be called, will share its platform with an upcoming small Jaguar sedan, the oft-rumored X-Type successor.
Still, we'd recommend taking any mention of a Jaguar crossover with a grain of salt. Based on many of the (quite compelling) statements made by De Ploey against a Jag crossover and previous statements made by Jag's design boss, Ian Callum, the case against a leaper-bearing crossover seems strong. If a high-rider were to arrive from Jaguar, though, the article insinuates that it'd be more in line with the BMW X6 or upcoming X4 - sort of a coupe-based crossover. Like we said, grain of salt. If a Jag crossover is going to arrive soon, the upcoming Frankfurt Motor Show is the most likely locale for its debut. We'll find out in a few weeks.
