For sale is my County Sable Edition 1993 Range Rover Long Wheel Base - SALHC1343PA639159. 


Wife finally making me sell my third vehicle to get our garage back - not to mention kid college fund ;)


Air suspension works as it should; never buy a LWB converted to coil springs (trust me, I have owned three).


Only year to have the beautiful Mediterranean Poplar wood trim – just awesome.


Refer to www.rangerovers.net/modelspecs/1993.html for all specs. 


Sable model was a $1,500 option introduced mid-way in 1993 model year. 


There were approximately 200 of the models with the Beluga Black paint and "Unique Black Accent CSK Wheels and Dark Sable Connolly Leather Seats and Trim". 


fyi - CSK was introduced to Range Rover in 1991 as a special edition model named after Charles Spencer King, the man who designed the original 2-door Range Rover.


The 1993 County LWB was named "Best New Light Truck or Sport Utility Vehicle " by the Automobile Journalists Association of Canada (AJAC).


It was also named "Best Sport Utility Vehicle in North America" by Playboy Magazine.


California model: all 1993s sold in CA had an extra $100.00 charge "For costs incurred by LRNA to comply with the California Air Resource Board (CARB) requirements."


Three owners with first owner having it 18 years, as follows:


>Original owner was dentist in San Fran, CA.; he owned it from 1993 new to approx. 2011 and clearly loved it with many refreshings including the new engine we will go over below.


>Second owner, also from CA, had a few unique range rovers but mostly was involved in a California Porsche club.


>Third owner (me, private seller) - a Land Rover enthusiast that has owned four over the last 16 years (one new Discovery II and three pre-owned RR LWBs, 1993/4/5


I honestly like the 93/4 LWB models better than the 1995 (even though the 95 had airbags with the discovery soft dash).  Why?  The classic dash set up - old school British!


I transported on a reputable car carrier from CA to FL - not driven.


New engine, 4.6, was installed at 112K mileage - a $9K upgrade - see picture of invoice.  Only 45k miles on it - many, many years to go!  See receipt picture


A high performance cam was installed same time as engine to increase performance and drive ability.


fyi - original model’s 4.2 V-8 had 200 HP; the 4.6 has 225 and feels and sounds very stronger (as I have owned two other lwbs). 


Driver side electric seat went out a year ago but believe it could just be a fuse; anyone over 5 feet, 9 inches does not need to move seat anyways. 


The passenger side seems to work ok moving back but lately started having issues moving forward; regardless, due to the uniqueness of classic range rovers, I recommend the new owner keep seats in a standard position at all times (in case they go out).


Heated front windshield and front seats do not work as per normal on rangies but not a huge deal.


Multiple sets of keys and remote key fobs.


Original manual and papers included. 


Tail gate is fine but new owner may want to replace frame with aftermarket aluminum version within five+ years; the tail gates on all rangies have issues as it is a steel component; you can replace the frame reasonably (or the whole glass unit). 


The main body is aluminum and is in great shape except for the passenger door bottom area (four inches) were a patch was done (but cannot really see well) - see picture. 


No wrecks; also, the Paint is original - still shiny too as evidenced by pictures; amazing looking truck that turns heads. 


Connolly Leather has been deeply conditioned four times in last three years; prior to that it is unknown but the leather is very, very nice.  Lexol brand is way to go!


Front seats almost look as if no one sat in them; what impresses me most is how thick the British Connolly leather is on the 1993s. 


Rear seats are almost incredible but there is one area that is a little dry so could later be redyed (6 inch area), etc to get back to normal (albeit unnecessary).


Battery installed late 2012 from second owner.


Tires are new from second owner and are like 95%; they were bought in 2012 by second owner


Expensive fuel filter installed 2014 (tough to replace in back right of vehicle).


I will include a new air filter in its box (for later use).


Sunroof and air suspension operate with no issues.


Headliner was replaced by second owner and is perfect; only the sunroof portion is not 100% - just needs minor regluing (albeit unnecessary). 


The pictures are mostly done in the neutral air suspension position but I have a couple shots showing the high and low profile ride heights. 


Again, never buy a Rangie LWB converted to coil springs as it (1) loses it charm, (2) usually has the car sit too high, and (3) loses its very unique feel (very squishy and I love it).


Front passenger door has the minor issue repaired by first owner - I believe he had opened it into a San Fran curb but you cannot see the patch; it should be corrected only if repainted.


Original manual and what we believe are full records – massive stack of papers including the document for the engine conversion.


iPod port installed by second owner.


Second owner also installed the nice light guards. 


Multi-CD changer. 


Cassette stock radio with a/d/s speakers and subwoofer.


For me, the major draw to 1993 vs 1994 was the Mediterranean Popular wood; they switched to burlwood for 1994. 


Wood is a 9+/10 condition; only the shifter cap is faded and can easier be replaced (if even wanted).


Rare Sable rear cover included; that alone draws major dollars in the aftermarket.


Dash is perfect; zero cracking, etc.; this truck has been cared for and is definitely one that will remain a strong classic for another decade+.


The undercarriage is super clean; it had some type of coating/painting done by a previous owner (but I do not know details).


Air conditioning and heating work as they should. 


No air bags. 


Cup holders are great but if you want more let me know and I’ll include the bolt on ones I took off an old Land Rover Discovery (otherwise I may sell those on ebay for a nice sum).


I know a concern with most SUVs is whether or not a shorter person can get in easily; no worries as the air suspension can be lowered when you park.


Smoke Free by me last two years; no info on owners 1 & 2.


Cruise control not working but that is common issue on these SUVs.


Sold new at British Motors of San Francisco Ca.


It was heavily been dealer serviced and maintained but specialist Roverland in San Francisco has performed majority of services.


This car has been owned by three meticulous enthusiasts that treated the car well. 


LWB is the only way to go for the Classic Rangies; the short wheel bases just don't compare.


Last series of RRs that were old school British (they dropped off with the 1996 model).


H4 headlights.


Serviced factory air suspension by owners one and two; I never had to service it as third owner.


The rangie has a slightly throaty sound from the upgraded NRP after-market exhaust system the second owner installed.


Replaced right front caliper and new brake pads in July 2012.


Factory remote key system works perfectly on one fob but the second one has a dead battery (no big deal to replace).


Other work done by owners two/three: the catalytic convertors, transfer case, front wheel bearings, radiator, water pump, brakes.


The headliner is new; only the sunroof portion has some unstuck glue (easily corrected).  


Second owner installed medium after-market tint (which looks nice with Black paint); this can be removed easily, if wanted.


MESSAGE ME WITH ANY SPECIFIC QUESTIONS.

Clean title; I own this SUV out right.

***This is a 1993 so please don't expect a show car - but do expect an 8 out of 10 in my eye - a rangie you will be very proud of***.

Jaguar Land Rover said to favor Europe rather than US for new plant

Sat, Feb 21 2015

With its plants running at full tilt, Jaguar Land Rover is in desperate need of additional manufacturing capacity. That's led to reports that the Indian-owned British company was looking to join European, Japanese and Korean automakers in America's southern states, all while it opened new plants in the UK and China. The company even announced it would be building the Land Rover Discovery Sport in Brazil. Now, though, reports are suggesting that JLR is looking at Europe for a new facility, rather than the US, with Automotive News claiming the company's execs are eyeing the lower costs afforded by Austria and Turkey. The report cites the Birmingham Post (UK), the broadsheet that's closest to the company's headquarters. According to the original report, labor costs and wage disputes with unions are ruling out another factory in the UK, while those same disputes with labor outfits may also be souring the automaker on a US facility. "At this stage Europe seems more likely than America. The union pay dispute had a big effect," an unnamed source told the Post. "There is a feeling of alienation that has been left over from the way the pay talks were handled." JLR, meanwhile, offered a solid no comment to the Post, with a spokesperson saying, "No decision has been taken on future manufacturing locations. We will continue to evaluate opportunities to increase our manufacturing footprint in the future." Related Video:
