The Land Rover Range Rover HSE is the best 4x4xfar to get you around town, and to play in the country. This 2004 Range Rover is my third one, and I can't imagine NOT getting a 4th. It's currently based in the Texas Hill Country of Austin, and has made frequent trips to the lakes west of town.

When you're in a Range Rover like this one, you are just plain happy! It's a joy, even at the gas station, when invariably someone will come up and say, "I've always wanted a Range Rover. How do you like it?" I love it!

If you watch any TMZ-like program, you'll notice it's the main vehicle of Hollywood. Everybody just loves a Range Rover, and you just can't beat it for the vehicle that you'll love most, both on and off road. The vehicle's air suspension system can be controlled from the driver's seat, and includes a low setting to enter and exit the vehicle, as well as suspension heights for 4-wheeling, and highway and town driving.

This particular Range Rover's main bad part is this: 
I never purchased a navigational computer, which was missing when I bought it, because iPhones have better systems anyway. However, if you want to replace it, they are available on the Internet for several hundred dollars. Since the navigational screen is blank, you have to program the radio without seeing the station call letters. I listen to just a few radio stations, and the vehicle has rarely left Austin, so it hasn't been an issue, but you may like to spend the extra dollars after purchase to get that navigational computer installed (the small dealer I bought it from in Florida must have taken the computer out before I got the vehicle, and since it wasn't listed, I couldn't do much about it.) Bottom line is that the AM/FM radio/Casette/6-Disc Changer all work, but you can't see what you're listening to. And I think that computer is the only way to set the clock, so the clock isn't set (you could kill the battery, and bring the battery back on at the proper time). The only other little problem is that some of the numbers don't show up all the way in the dashboard, so it doesn't see the 100,000 digit yet (it shows 54K miles, but it's actually 154K miles.) When it hits 200,000, I'm sure you will see portions of the 2. I've included pictures so you can see the problem.

You'll see some wear and tear of an 8-year old vehicle, but as with most vehicles of this caliper, you'll notice that people take way better care of them than cheaper vehicles. The $72,950 Window Sticker is still in the manual packet. When you own a vehicle that was originally high-priced, the best thing you can do is try to find an independent garage that you can trust, and who will help you take care of the vehicle without thinking you're made of money to spare. Range Rovers are plentiful enough that most big cities have a Range Rover specialist that doesn't overcharge you to keep the vehicle in shape. This vehicle has been maintained by Phoenix Motorworks in Austin -- they know what they're doing, and are extremely fair to their customers. They were recommended by Ben's Workshop, the top local Mercedes repair specialist, and both shops have been incredible to work with. I'm sure you can find a local Range Rover enthusiast community to help you with maintaining this SUV.

Happy bidding, and please feel free to contact me with any additional questions or concerns.

Weekly Recap: Chrysler forges ahead with new name, same mission

Sat, Dec 20 2014

Chrysler is history. Sort of. The 89-year-old automaker was absorbed into the Fiat Chrysler Automobiles conglomerate that officially launched this fall, and now the local operations will no longer use the Chrysler Group name. Instead, it's FCA US LLC. Catchy, eh? Here's what it means: The sign outside Chrysler's Auburn Hills, MI, headquarters says FCA (which it already did) and obviously, all official documents use the new name, rather than Chrysler. That's about it. The executives, brands and location of the headquarters aren't changing. You'll still be able to buy a Chrysler 200. It's just made by FCA US LLC. This reinforces that FCA is one company going forward – the seventh largest automaker in the world – not a Fiat-Chrysler dual kingdom. While the move is symbolic, it is a conflicting moment for Detroiters, though nothing is really changing. Chrysler has been owned by someone else (Daimler, Cerberus) for the better part of two decades, but it still seemed like it was Chrysler in the traditional sense: A Big 3 automaker in Detroit. Now, it's clearly the US division of a multinational industrial empire; that's good thing for its future stability, but bittersweet nonetheless. Undoubtedly, it's an emotion that's also being felt at Fiat's Turin, Italy, headquarters as the company will no longer officially be called Fiat there. Digest that for a moment. What began in 1899 as the Societa Anonima Fabbrica Italiana di Automobili Torino – or FIAT – is now FCA Italy SpA. In a statement, FCA said the move "is intended to emphasize the fact that all group companies worldwide are part of a single organization." The new names are the latest changes orchestrated by CEO Sergio Marchionne, who continues to makeover FCA as an international automaker that has ties to its heritage – but isn't tied down by it. Everything from the planned spinoff of Ferrari, a new FCA headquarters in London and the pending demise of the Dodge Grand Caravan in 2016 has shown that the company is willing to move quickly, even if it's controversial. While renaming the United States and Italian divisions were the moves most likely to spur controversy, FCA said other regions across the globe will undergo similar name changes this year. Despite the mixed emotions, it's worth noting: The name of the merged company that oversees all of these far-flung units is Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. Obviously the Chrysler corporate name isn't completely history.

Jaguar Land Rover gets to work on new university R&D center

Fri, Mar 20 2015

Jaguar Land Rover has a raft of new products in the pipeline, from the new Defender to the next-generation XF sedan. But new product isn't the only thing the British automaker is investing in: it's also opening new facilities around the world, including what it's calling the National Automotive Innovation Centre back home in the UK. Based at the University of Warwick, the new $220-million R&D center is the result of a joint effort between JLR, its parent company Tata, the manufacturing arm of the university and the British government. The facility will bring together professionals from the automaker as well as its suppliers with academics to encourage, as the name suggests, innovation in the automotive sector. Its 355,000 square feet are earmarked to become the hub for Jaguar Land Rover's advanced research activities, including "workshops, laboratories, virtual engineering suites and advanced powertrain facilities, equipped to enable a full range of design, visualisation and prototyping activities." The cornerstore was just laid in a ceremony this week, but the facility isn't due to open until the Spring of 2017 when it will encompass some 1,000 employees, including 600 relocated by JLR to the new location from other sites in the UK.

New Forza Horizon 2 pack features Chevy Monte Carlo SS, Audi RS6 Avant [w/video]

Tue, Dec 2 2014

The latest car pack for Forza Horizon 2 is hitting Xbox Live today, giving Xbox One owners a shot at six new vehicles that date back to 1970. Leading the charge in the hearts and minds of the Autoblog staff is, of course, the 1988 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS, one of the most 80s-tastic performance coupes of its time. Chevy's 80s-era NASCAR representative is joined by another General Motors performance two-door, in the form of the 1970 Buick GSX. Complete with a 455-cubic-inch V8, the GSX could best be thought of as the grandpappy to the iconic GNX of the late 1980s. Crossing the pond, we have a trio of offerings from the United Kingdom, with the 2002 Lotus Esprit V8, the redesigned, aluminum-intensive 2014 Land Rover Range Rover Supercharged and finally, the 2015 McLaren 650S. The mid-engined offerings should be a riot on the winding roads of Forza Horizon 2's European locales, while the Range Rover should make cross-country efforts an absolute breeze. Finally, virtual wagon lovers will be able to enjoy the 2015 Audi RS6 Avant and its combination of Quattro all-wheel drive and a twin-turbocharged V8. As per usual, this latest car pack will be available to gamers for $5 while season pass owners will score the sextet of vehicles for free. Scroll down for a video of the new offerings in action, as well as the official press release from Turn 10 Studios. "Forza Horizon 2" NAPA® Chassis Car Pack Now Available The roads and countryside of "Forza Horizon 2" beg for you to leave your mark on them. The NAPA® Chassis Car Pack for "Forza Horizon 2" on Xbox One has arrived, bringing five amazing new cars to blaze trails, break records, or just enjoy a casual cruise in. First off, the new McLaren 650S Coupe's uncanny acceleration and preposterous top speed will satisfy the elitist in you. If you want get away from it all, there's no better way than in the Supercharged Land Rover. Need muscle? Take the classic form of the Buick GSX or the later model Monte Carlo SS for a spin. We all need more wagon in our lives and the Audi RS6 is ready to run around town or serve up surprises at the track. The NAPA® Chassis Car Pack for "Forza Horizon 2" on Xbox One is available today for $5 in the Xbox Live store. Starting today, also available this month for free for all Xbox One players is the 2002 Lotus Esprit V8.
