1995 Land Rover Discovery Base Sport Utility 4-door 3.9l on 2040-cars
Franklinton, North Carolina, United States
I have owned my landy for years, keeping my baby meticulously cleaned and maintained. We've been through a lot together, but unfortunately my dad needs some unexpected surgery, and I have to sell her to cover costs :'(
The vehicle is in absurdly good condition, especially given its age. She doesn't have any of the 'typical' old car problems: the paint isn't faded, all of the electronics work (all power doors, windows, radio etc), the weatherstripping still seals, the air vents aren't broken, fuel system is in good condition (recently tested at ~35 psi), windshield wipers work etc. The engine is also extremely healthy – oil changed regularly and not even a vacuum leak. She starts quickly, idles at the proper RPM, and the V8 has all of the get-up-and-go for whatever you can throw at it. It is built like a truck; the GAVR for this vehicle is 7000 lbs, and she has a receiver for a tow hitch.
The brush bars are aftermarket, and the paint on those is fading a touch, but not noticeably.
Jobs performed recently include: Idle Air Control Valve replaced Distributor cap and wires replaced Gear oil changed on both front and rear final drive unit All driveshafts and u-joints greased All Door latch springs replaced Engine oil changed Rotoflex changed Starter replaced Battery upgraded Clutch master cylinder replaced and lines bled
The car has a few caveats: the spotlights on the brush bars were never wired, the AC charge is getting low, and the rear view mirror was removed. This vehicle has seen minor off road use, so there are imperceptible scratches and dings low on some of the body panels.
The spare tire is completely new, and there is also a spare rotoflex that I keep in the back, along with a proper bottle jack. Tread life remaining is estimated at about 30%. The tires are in decent condition and lose less than 2 psi per month. Though the acc belt is new, there is a spare in the back as well.
This is a serious listing – I put effort into this listing so that you can make an informed choice instead of wasting your time. Please do not waste mine - contact me only if you are as serious about buying as I am about selling. Test drives allowed only if cash-in-hand. |

Land Rover wins legal battle over Evoque clone Land Wind X7
Fri, Mar 22 2019Luxury carmaker Jaguar Land Rover, part of Tata Motors Ltd, said it won a case in China against local rival Jiangling Motors Corp for making cars that copy features of Range Rover Evoque. Beijing Chaoyang District Court said on Friday that Evoque, whose latest model was launched in 2018, had five unique features that were copied directly in the Land Wind X7 built by Jiangling Motors, leading to widespread consumer confusion. The court ruled that all sales, manufacturing and marketing of the Land Wind X7 must stop immediately and Jaguar Land Rover be paid compensation. The two sports utility vehicles have a similar shape, with the roof and windows tapering from front to back, and near-identical tail lights and character lines on the side panelling. Britain's biggest carmaker had sued Jiangling in a rare move in 2016. Despite widespread and often blatant copying, global automakers generally don't take legal action in China as they feel the odds of winning against local firms are low. Also, a lawsuit can be bad for branding if the Chinese public think a foreign company is bullying domestic competitors. The new Range Rover Evoque will be launched in China in April 2019. Jiangling could not be immediately reached for comment.

Child cobalt miners: Automakers pledge ethical minerals sourcing for EVs
Wed, Nov 29 2017BERLIN - Leading carmakers including Volkswagen and Toyota pledged on Wednesday to uphold ethical and socially responsible standards in their purchases of minerals for an expected boom in electric vehicle production. Demand for minerals such as cobalt, graphite and lithium is forecast to soar in the coming years as governments crack down on vehicle pollution and carmakers step up their investments in electric models. To cover its plans for more than 80 new models by 2025, Volkswagen alone is looking for partners in China, Europe and North America to provide battery cells and related technology worth more than 50 billion euros ($59 billion). Talks with major cobalt producers, including Glencore, at VW's Wolfsburg headquarters last week ended without a deal. More than half of the world's cobalt comes from the Democratic Republic of Congo, a country racked by political instability and legal opacity, and where child labor is used in mines. On Wednesday, a group of 10 leading passenger-car and truck manufacturers announced an initiative to jointly identify and address ethical, environmental, human and labor rights issues in raw materials sourcing. The partnership dubbed "Drive Sustainability" consists of VW, Toyota Motor Europe, Ford, Daimler, BMW, Honda, Jaguar Land Rover, Volvo Cars and truckmakers Scania and Volvo. The alliance "will assess the risks posed by the top raw materials (such as mica, cobalt, rubber and leather) in the automotive sector," said Stefan Crets of the CSR Europe business network. "This will allow Drive Sustainability to identify the most impactful activities to pursue" to address issues within the supply chain.Reporting by Andreas Cremer.Related Video: Image Credit: Michael Robinson Chavez/The Washington Post via Getty Images Green BMW Ford Honda Jaguar Land Rover Mercedes-Benz Automakers Toyota Volkswagen Volvo Green Automakers Green Culture Electric Scania ethics mining
