This is the last year (1995) of the iconic Range Rover Classic Series!! The Range Rover Classic was Land Rover’s transition from the old school defender look to the new school P38, Discovery and the new Range Rover line. The 1995 Range Rover Classic had many luxury upgrades over previous Classic models including the soft dash, the interior leather etc… The lines on this car are incredibly beautiful and EVERYONE comments on how cool looking it is wherever I take it. Here are the details of all of the upgrades to the vehicle which total an estimated at $24,000 NOT COUNTING WHAT I ORIGINALLY PAID FOR THE VEHICLE FROM A COLLECTOR:

  1. Complete engine overhaul immediately prior to my purchase (at 130,000 miles). ($2500)

  2. CAT exhaust system with a sexy throaty sound. ($1200)

  3. Bilstien shocks and coils to replace the shi****ty can suspension system that breaks down on every rover that has it. ($1000). Additional 2 inch lift.

  4. Brand new paint job ($5000) using Mercedes brilliant white. I had the painters remove the upper rear vinyl covered panels and paint them white. The vinyl was always ugly. I don’t think you will find another Classic with this simple but cool modification.

  5. ARB Deluxe front bumper with a Warn Winch with detachable control that you keep in the glove box. ($2800)

  6. Hella lights- 6 x 100 watt and 2 x smaller lights. The Hella light backs are professionally painted red which really stands out as unique! This lights up at night and looks like a UFO going down the road.  

  7. Roof Rack- Off Road Challenge Edition from Voyager Off Road ($1500)

  8. Installation of roof rack and wiring of the Hella Light systems ($800)

  9. Land Rover special edition Sawtooth Wheels (set of 5 16 x 17 for $1,943.20). These are very rare and I doubt you will see them on any other rover other than a collector defender. They are absolutely beautiful and brand new. Look them up at www.roversnorth.com.

  10. Set of 5 brand new tires- goodyear Wrangler duratrac ($1500)

  11. Hi Lift Jack that I had powder coated and mounted on the front. The powder coating prevents any rust drip on my expensive ARB bumper!  ($500)

  12. Recovery loops for ARB bumper ($250)

  13. 2 Rovers North Shovels to mount on the roof rack.

  14. Floor mat sets- Range rover classic and another set from weather tech including a cargo mat. ($500)

  15. Engine leaks fixed (there is one very small remaining leak we are trying to find), radiator pressure tested and leak fixed. New alternator and various other small engine parts replaced or seals replaced over the last several years. ($5000)

  16. Transmission rebuilt within a month of my purchase of this vehicle and done professionally by a dealership. The automatic transition shifts beautifully as a brand new one should. ($2500)

  17. Heat pump/AC box replaced (I think this is what it is called) ($1500) which involved removal of the entire dashboard.

  18. New battery and new spark cables. New radiator fluid reservoir. ($400)

  19. New headliner ($800).

  20. Window tinting throughout ($1000)

  21. This car drives and tracts perfectly. It has the typical rover solid feel. Most old rovers drive very wonky due to various front end issues. this one drives and tracts perfectly at any speed!

For the serious collector, here is what in my opinion would make this the finest 1995 Range rover Classic in the world.

  1. Mount Aluminum Traction Sand Mat Set from Rovers North. See at http://www.roversnorth.com/ProductDesc.aspx?code=RNP1004

  2. New carpet- the existing carpet is nice and in great condition but new would make it PERFECT.

  3. New front upholstery- the existing upholstery is nice but new would be PERFECT. At a minimum, you could just re-cover the arm rests for $100. The front seats have some very minor age cracking but NO tears. The springs in the seats are solid and the power mechanisms all work. The seat heater on the drivers side does not work but could be as simple as a fuse replacement.

  4. Spare Tire Mount for the rear with NATO gas can mount. See it here http://www.tiregate.com/hg-series/. An alternative is to simply mount the brand new spare tire with brand new sawtooth rim in the roof rack, which would look great.

The interior is in exceptional shape which is rare for a rover of this age. The dash is perfect, no sun wear or tears. The carpets and upholstery are in good shape, without stains or tears. The car is has been my daily driver since purchase and the engine runs perfect, no smoke from the exhaust, no ticks, starts immediately. Heater, AC, original radio all work perfectly. The CD system needs a CD disc holder. Speakers and sound system works great.  I am a doctor and I love old Land Rovers and particularly love the lines of the 1995 Classic. I have spared no expense in bringing this car back to the present better than original condition with the customized details that make this car really stand out to the Land Rover sophisticated or un-sophisticated eye. I live in Washington State and the car has always been garaged and never been off road. I just had the vehicle serviced and had all major fluids changed.  

The paint is brand new Mercedes brilliant white and looks FANTASTIC!.

This is a 3.9 L. V8 gasoline.

Loaded with all the options including sunroof. 175k miles, but engine rebuilt at 130k miles. You will not find another 1995 RR Classic SWB in this condition or with the upgrades this one has, all done by professional mechanics.

The following is a partial list of amenities that are fully functional: Tilt up and slide sunroof, cold AC, power windows, power seats, power adjustable side view mirrors, tilt steering wheel, power steering. All gauges are working, heat and A/C function properly, all windows and sunroof work.

Call me (Scott)  at 360-631-1239 with any questions before you buy or bid. Car is sold as is, no returns. This is a 1995 collectors car and I have described it honestly and in as much detail as possible. This car is not for the timid or weak at heart. It is a bold bold head turning ride, and would be great for a collector of old Rovers.

Jaguar Land Rover hands Tata the biggest loss in Indian corporate history

Fri, Feb 8 2019

BENGALURU/NEW DELHI — Jaguar Land Rover's owner Tata Motors Ltd stunned markets by posting the biggest-ever quarterly loss in Indian corporate history of about $4 billion on slumping China sales, sending its shares crashing as much as 30 percent. Tata Motors also warned that the Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) unit, which brings in most of its revenue, would swing to an operating loss for the year versus an earlier projection it would break even, given weak sales at the luxury British carmaker. JLR's China retail sales were cut almost in half in the December quarter as overall demand in the world's biggest auto market contracted last year for the first time since the 1990s. The firm has also been buffeted by Brexit woes and weaker business for diesel cars that account for bulk of its sales in Europe. Tata Motors turned in a third-quarter loss of 269.93 billion rupees ($3.8 billion) on Thursday, more than half its current market capitalization of $6.1 billion, mostly due to a massive impairment at JLR. Analysts were expecting a profit. "We are now taking clear and decisive actions in JLR to step up its competitiveness, reduce costs and improve cash flows and make the business fit for the future," Chief Financial Officer PB Balaji told reporters on a conference call on Thursday. JLR has taken steps to address the slide in China sales by changing its strategy to focus on profits for dealers instead of sales and incentivising retail sales over wholesale, he said. "We are encouraged by continued demand for the refreshed Range Rover and Range Rover Sport," JLR Chief Commercial Officer Felix Brautigam said in a statement. "With deliveries of the new Evoque due to start later this quarter, we look forward to building momentum." But analysts expect JLR to struggle to generate profit with China's economy projected to slow further this year after growth eased to its weakest pace in almost three decades in 2018. JLR's overall retail sales in January plunged 11 percent. The dour numbers prompted Tata investors to make a beeline for the exits as markets opened on Friday, with shares of the company skidding to their lowest in nine years at one point. The stock was down about 20 percent by 0720 GMT near 150 rupees, on track for its sharpest drop since 2003. At least four brokerages cut their price target for Tata Motors shares after its quarterly loss. Analysts at Jefferies pegged the stock at 250 rupees, versus an earlier target of 300 rupees, citing weak performance at JLR.

Jaguar Land Rover may build factory in Saudi Arabia

Tue, 11 Dec 2012

The Middle East is one of the fastest-growing markets for Land Rover, so it makes sense that the automaker is looking to set up shop in the region. According to Automotive News, Jaguar Land Rover is in talks with the people of Saudi Arabia to build a factory in the country at an expected initial cost of $1.2 billion. Still in the early stage of talks, the proposed facility could start up by 2017 using locally sourced materials such as steel and aluminum.
Such an arrangement could be beneficial for both entities as Saudi Arabia looks to diversify its oil-reliant economy and Land Rover could get local production capacity of around 50,000 units. The report also says that the agreement talks about the possibility for Jaguar models to be built at the same plant further down the road.
This won't be the first vehicle produced in Saudi Arabia - that honor goes to the KSU Gazal-1 - but it will be the first from a major global automaker.

Jaguar Land Rover to upgrade Castle Bromwich plant to build EVs

Fri, Jul 5 2019

LONDON — Jaguar Land Rover is making a multi-million pound investment to build electric vehicles in Britain, in a major boost for the UK government and a sector hit by the slump in diesel sales and Brexit uncertainty. Britain's biggest car company, which built 30 percent of the UK's 1.5 million cars last year, will make a range of electrified vehicles at its Castle Bromwich plant in central England, beginning with its luxury saloon, the XJ. "The future of mobility is electric and, as a visionary British company, we are committed to making our next generation of zero-emission vehicles in the UK," Chief Executive Ralf Speth said on Friday. The announcement gives a boost to Britain's automotive sector hit this year by Honda and Ford's plans to close factories. Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) has highlighted the dangers of a no-deal Brexit and the need to maintain frictionless trade with the European Union, echoing warnings from the industry that just-in-time production could be hit by customs delays and additional bureaucracy. But it has signed a deal with workers at the Castle Bromwich factory to go from a five-day to a four-day working week with the same amount of hours which should allow the plant to operate more efficiently. Three of JLR's four European car plants are in Britain, giving it limited capacity elsewhere on the continent. The other, in Slovakia, only opened last year and is still being ramped up with other models allocated there. "We are making this investment because the ongoing Brexit uncertainty has left us with no choice, we had to act, for our employees and our business," JLR said. "We are committed to the UK as our home and will fight to stay here but we need the right deal." Both candidates to replace Prime Minister Theresa May, Boris Johnson and Jeremy Hunt, have both said they are prepared to take Britain out of the EU on Oct. 31 without a deal, although it is not their preferred option. Brexiteers have argued that the EUÂ’s biggest economy Germany, which exports hundreds of thousands of cars to Britain ever year, would do its utmost to protect that trade Friday's announcement comes after a turbulent few months for Jaguar which announced around 4,500 job cuts earlier in January and posted a 3.66 billion pound ($4.5 billion) loss in 2018/19.
