You are bidding on a 2008 Range Rover with a great body that was flooded and is not in running order. The vehicle has a very clean body and interior, and many new modules and parts. It’s white with beige leather. Odometer shows 43,700 miles. The truck was manufactured in June 2008, so it’s a very late 2008 - almost a 2009. VIN is SALME15418A293331

** THIS IS NOT A RUNNING VEHICLE. IT IS OFFERED AS IS WITH WATER DAMAGE **

From what I can see the body on this truck is in great shape. It looks all original to me and it’s free of damage with the exception of some minor bumper chips. The car has good wheels and tires. It’s all stock.

The interior is nice and clean though there is some corrosion visible under seats and in corners. There is no significant wear or damage to any of the seating surfaces.

Someone bought this car and tried to fix it before being overwhelmed by the job. They purchased a new engine control unit ($2,000), a new body control unit ($2,000) and a new immobilizer. The car was also fitted with a new instrument cluster from another vehicle. All those parts function but are now coded with a different VIN which would have to be cleared before they could be used in a vehicle. Windows, door locks, and all the hood latches, stuff like that work. The vehicle can be locked up with the key and the windows are closed, so it's secure and watertight if parked outside. All the body sheet metal looks really good - doors don't have any damage. Fenders, quarters, etc all good. Windshield even looks new. Complex electronics is mostly inoperative. The car was flooded to at least dash top level.

The seller purchased 8 more used modules (radio, transfer case, and other systems) which may or may not be usable in another 2006-2009 Range Rover. These are included with the vehicle, along with most of the original modules that were swapped out. We do not have the original flooded ECU or the original instrument cluster. The cluster in the car seems to work but I do not know of a way to recode miles and VIN for use in another vehicle.

This would be a great truck for someone who has a rolled or heavily crashed Range Rover. It’s got most of what you need to put a rig like that back on the road. If you have an early L3222 Range Rover I think the front and rear of this vehicle could be used to update a 2003-5 truck but you should check an interchange guide for specifics. I offer the car as it, as water damaged salvage.

If you are a body man you know the value of the parts on this truck. Flooding can ruin mechanicals and electrics but the body, sheet metal, plastic, and all the sealed systems tend to be unaffected. On a vehicle like this, that adds up to a lot. A good nose or tail is close to ten grand for these cars, and when you add an interior, radiator, AC condenser, wheels, and whatever else you can use the truck is a bargain for someone like that. All the plastic trim is complete and undamaged. The seats look near-new and they have the fancier contrast piping.

According to Land Rover this car was last serviced in August 2012 at 43,000 miles. That's the last recorded mileage and the last time it was known to be on the road. It was sold to our client – with water damage – in the fall of 2013.

The car is available for inspection at our Springfield offices, Monday-Friday from 8-5. Robison Service is one of the leading independent Land Rover specialists in the eastern United States. Read more about us online through our RobisonService website or blog. We are an authorized Bosch Car Service center specializing in Land Rover.

This vehicle rolls, but does not start or run. It will have to be towed out of here. You can shift it into park to secure it on a trailer. If you want to inspect the car, please do so BEFORE bidding. If you have questions call John Robison at 413-785-1665 or email through the ebay system.

We are a Massachusetts licensed motor vehicle dealer and repair facility. Buyer will owe 6.25% MA sales tax, and there is a $129 title and document processing fee. Please note that you will owe MA sales tax even if you ship the truck out of state because it's sold off our lot here, and must be picked up in person. It's not a mail-order item. The only exception to this sales tax rule is for licensed dealers who present a valid, current dealer license and state issued tax certificate. These fees are in addition to the bid price for the car. We are not selling subject to financing. Please make sure you have funds lined up before you bid.

Jaguar SUV mule doing Ring testing in Evoque clothes

Mon, 28 Apr 2014

Jaguar has moved its Range Rover Evoque-bodied tests of the production C-X17 Concept from icy streets to the legendary Nürburgring, as work continues on the brand's first SUV.
Really, there's not a great deal of new stuff here. Based on the number plates, this is a different vehicle from the one we saw back in March, which we originally identified as the upcoming replacement for the Land Rover Freelander/LR2. The details, though, appear largely the same. The biggest distinction we can see between the March tests and this are the US-spec headlights, which add amber reflectors at their sides. Based on these shots, it does seem as if the C-X17 should be a fairly poised road vehicle, as the engineers hustle it around the 'Ring.
Of course, as soon our spies can capture images of a production-bodied C-X17, we'll be sure to pass those on to you. Until then, take a look up top for images of the Range Rover-bodied Jaguar as it tests at Germany's Nürburgring. You can also scroll down for our March images for the C-X17 mules testing on public roads.

Jaguar-Land Rover builds millionth vehicle at Halewood

Fri, 29 Nov 2013

Jaguar-Land Rover is not what you'd call a volume automaker by any stretch of the imagination. But in the dozen years since it started manufacturing at its Halewood plant near Liverpool, England, the automaker has already built its millionth vehicle.
The landmark vehicle is a Range Rover Evoque, done up in white with red roof and mirrors, black wheels and a red and black interior. The crossover is set to be donated to Cancer Research UK, which will auction it off next year to help fund its projects in the north-west of the country.
Halewood started manufacturing the Jaguar X-Type in 2001, then went on to assemble the Land Rover LR2 / Freelander 2 before taking on production of the Evoque a year and a half ago. The facility reached the 300,000-unit milestone just last year as production moved to a 24-hour cycle for the first time in either marque's history.

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.
