1995 Range Rover County LWB

Overview:

The wait is over!  Many of you have asked and I am finally pleased to deliver this 1995 LWB in stunning Alpine White on Bahama Beige.  This vehicle comes to me from a long-time client in San Diego.  It was primarily used as their summer family vehicle when out here for the season from Arizona.  It has been meticulously maintained over the years and what I have to present now is the result of exhaustive maintenance.  Whatever your intention is for this ONE YEAR ONLY vintage, it will be sure to serve you for many enjoyable years to come.

Operation and Aesthetics:

For many, the 95 LWB is the crowning achievement to the Range Rover Classic line.  It has all of the upgrades and  refinements of 25 years worth of development and yet, in true Range Rover form, it embraces new innovation and design while exhibiting all of its heritage in one coherent work.  This vehicle is a PROUD representative of that lineage with its full service profile and alluring cosmetic integrity.

This vehicle fires right up and the fully serviced 4.2L V8 roars to life.  It idles perfectly and with a slight step on the accelerator you are off in a flash.  This truck surges onto the motorways with TOTAL CONFIDENCE with no hesitation, rattles, or wanderings of any kind.  The Old Man Emu Springs provide an extremely plush ride while the Bilstien Shock Absorbers unleash the European sport-touring nature of the Range Rover via crisp and decisive handling.  The transmission is smooth with no winding and the shift quality is excellent in all gear ranges.

All power options work as they should, seats, windows, mirrors, lights, sunroof, safety MFCU’s, and all.  The AC works brilliantly and the heat is perfect without any offending coolant smells inside the cabin.  That said, this is also A NON SMOKER VEHICLE and with its recent upholstery renewals and professional detail, she still smells like a new car.

This vehicle is a blast to drive for many reasons.  It performs as you would expect from a vehicle of this caliber and all of the distinctive features of this one year only model are in excellent condition.  Its an interesting point to make here:  The Range Rovers have ALWAYS influenced the rest of the Land Rover Line.  For example, the ladder chassis and suspension would eventually become the platform for the discovery.  In 2003 – with the launch of the MKIII Full Size Range Rover – Discovery 2’s were still on the showroom floor.  The 03/04 D2’s were given the same aggressive headlamp style that can be found on Range Rovers even to this day.  But to my original point:  The 95 RRC’s were truly special because for the 1st and ONLY time in its history, the Range Rover received styling inspiration from the Land Rover Discovery.  Known as the “Soft-Dash,” The impressive in cabin appearance owes much to the Discovery’s own Soft-Dash design as it too was introduced at that time with the Range Rover.  Additionally, it is the ONLY RANGE ROVER CLASSIC to offer driver and passenger SRS airbags.  Lastly and perhaps most interestingly, this year the company transformed from “Range Rover of North America,” as it was known up until that moment, into “Land Rover of North America.”  1995 was a milestone in Range Rover history and will always serve as an investment point for collectors.

Body, Chassis & Coachwork:

Overall this vehicle is a total pleasure to look at.  The TRW wheels offered in 1995 are in excellent shape and add to this trucks impressive appearance.  The legendary Soft-Dash is in equally tidy shape with no gouges, rips or curl. The chrome appointments are in pristine order and even the front bumpers push-pads are intact (they are almost always missing).  The rugs and mats are clean and soft as is the original leather.  The front seats are in astonishingly good condition and display what happens to quality materials when cared for appropriately. 

Note the highlighted pictures of the door sills, upper tailgate corner, hinges and jambs.  These are all critical areas for corrosion on the Range Rover Classics and they are present here in near perfect condition.   

The vehicle is proudly drip free and you should consider it nice driveway safe! 

The paint is touchably smooth and as pictured, polishes up great.  Like most older Californians who have spent a life in the sun, you will see expected wear and tear for the age but as this truck is still all original without any cosmetic surgery, she can still wow the camera and the fans at red carpet appearances!

To recap, this is a straight, original, rot free, clean and comfortable Range Rover that you would be otherwise proud to own.

A Word on EAS:

Air suspension. Perhaps the most widely debated topic in Range Rover history.  Some love it.  Some hate it.  Some vouch for reliability. Some curse its introduction to an already amazing suspension system.  Personally, I love it.  The purist in me enjoys the feature when working correctly.  Simultaneously, Coil Springs and NOT EAS was original to the Classic.  And I love it too.  So what to do with this truck?  It has the TOP OF THE LINE Coil Spring and Shock replacement parts on it and the ride quality is amazing.  I have personally evaluated the EAS system and it is intact and functional.  All you would need to do to restore the EAS system is fit a set of air coils all the way around.  So why haven’t I?  The vast majority of you have asked for a 95 LWB with coil springs… and here it is with the best available.  I personally do not see the hurry to run back to EAS just for arguments sake.  The system is operational and ready to be retro fit if/when you decide necessary.  For this vehicle, I do feel that she is perfect just the way she is.

Purchasing, Perspective & Why Buy From Me:

No one puts a Range Rover Classic together better than me, PERIOD.  It’s the vehicle I drive, and the vehicle I RACE.  Nearly two decades of Classic ownership and service are poured into every Classic (and every Rover) that I see into new hands. 

 All too common are sales from the brokerage houses where a vehicle will receive a detail service and nothing else.  Leaving maintenance work for the pleasure of the new owner; often time’s immediately following reception of the vehicle.  Beware of any Classic that does not share the same service points as the ones I advertise with my trucks.  They are ESSENTIAL for long term reliability and any Classic without these services are ticking time bombs.  I am not a Land Rover tech that drives home in a Honda Civic.  I come from a long line of British Car technicians and Live, Breathe and even RACE the green oval.  I understand ALL of your concerns and needs and do my best to ensure that you will be happy based on a simple, yet powerful concept:  DOES THIS VEHICLE MAKE ME HAPPY?  WOULD I PUT MY WIFE AND BABY IN IT? WOULD I LOVE TO HAVE IT?  The answer is always yes.  And that’s when I know they are ready.  I care.  I know you do, too.

Vehicles that I see off not only have domestic endpoints, they go to the farthest reaches of the planet.  They have gone to Europe, Asia, The South Pacific, Central America and currently, a client recently purchased a trail-ready 88 RRC and is en route to Tierra Del Fuego after I picked him up in the vehicle at LAX when he flew in to receive it!  The point here is, I believe in each and every vehicle that I usher in to new ownership.  Please see my recent vehicle sales and I’m sure you’ll be impressed.

While these vehicles are all totally looked after, they are not immune to future service needs and flaws.  They are used vehicles and normal flaws and wear should be expected as the vast majority of them are pushing 20+ years old.  I invite you to ask ANY AND ALL QUESTIONS NOW!  There are no queries too obscure; your satisfaction is the goal here.  Additionally, eBay offers a 3rd party inspection service to verify ALL of your acquisition needs IN PERSON.  Purchase of the vehicle = SATISFACTION.  Once this auction is over, the winning bid and purchase imply that satisfaction has been achieved and will be understood as such.  There are no warranties offered here, but that said, there is always an unspoken “hand-shake” warranty meaning that should something fail within a reasonable amount of time – say a hose, a coilpack, a distributor, blower motors, an alternator, a switch, etc – I will be happy to send you what I have available at that time.

This is a NO RESERVE AUCTION so you are bidding to win!  Please make sure that you bid ONLY what you are prepared to pay.  This means, when the auction is over, and the winning bid is placed, this becomes THE SALE PRICE of the vehicle.  Under no circumstances does it open the door to negotiate or back out of your commitment.  The people bidding for this vehicle actually want it.  Do not spoil their chances at ownership by arm-chair bidding.  Yes, everyone joins eBay at some point, and there is no prejudice against lower transaction numbers here – HOWEVER – if I suspect and/or become aware of any insincerity on the part of said bidder, I reserve the right to cancel all bids from and block that insincere bidder from this auction.

Completion of this transaction is fairly straight forward.  Once the auction is over, I will be contacting the winner immediately and we can discuss the easiest way to finalize the transition.

Finally, people always ask me who I think a particular vehicle is for.  This truck has potential for so many… It’s the ideal candidate for someone who has been looking for their first taste of a 95.  Its clean, functional, reliable, and gorgeous.  It can make an excellent daily driver.  A first car.  A summer guest vehicle.  A build platform for an overland luxury concept truck.  The 95’s were distinctive all the way.  And if you are looking for 95’s only, then no doubt you have a specific need.  Whatever it may be, this vehicle is up to the task and will make its new owner proud.  Summer time is coming – and this vehicle is ready to be an essential component to your itinerary… whatever and wherever that may be!  Best of luck and Happy Rovering!Pic 1

We compare 2021 Ford Bronco and Bronco Sport specifications to their ritzy Land Rover competiton

Tue, Jul 14 2020

The 2021 Bronco and Bronco Sport are the spearheads for Ford's new 4x4 sub-brand, with the former taking the fight directly to the Jeep Wrangler and the latter providing Ford with a more rugged alternative to the Escape. We've already looked at how the new Bronco and Bronco Sport compare to their mainstream competition, but we'd like to see how the Bronco stacks up to another hotly anticipated returning nameplate: the Land Rover Defender.  Not to leave its little sibling in the cold, I decided to browse Land Rover's lineup and see what might be a suitable counterpoint to the Bronco Sport. For better or worse, I found an almost-perfect fit in the Range Rover Evoque. So, how do these new American 4x4s compare to the Old Country's more-expensive alternatives? Let's dig in, starting with the big boys.  As you might expect from the Bronco's robust credentials, it holds its own here against the more-expensive Brit. The Defender's higher price point brings along a good bit of power advantage with both engines, but that's to be expected. The Defender also has that trick adjustable-height suspension that the Bronco lacks, giving it an edge in practicality, and it can also tow quite a bit more.  On the flip side, there are quite a few advantages to going with the Ford, including a greater number of choices in terms of powertrain. The available manual transmission on four-cylinder Broncos is a nice bonus, for instance, as is the option of getting either the base 2.3-liter or the optional 2.7-liter engine with either wheelbase. The Defender is a bit more restrictive in this regard offering only the inline-six on the short-wheelbase model. As an added bonus, the Bronco is a convertible. That may not necessarily be a "plus" for all shoppers, but it's certainly an added bit of versatility (and potential appeal) the Defender lacks. And of course, the Bronco can be had for as little as $30,000, whereas the Land Rover starts at $50,000. Now, on to the less-rugged siblings. The specs here are actually a little tighter in most respects, but the powertrain story is almost identical. The Evoque checks in where the Bronco Sport tops out, and the Range Rover gets an optional high-output variant of the 2.0-liter turbocharged four.

Jaguar Land Rover launches Pivotal subscription service

Fri, Jul 3 2020

Two years ago, Jaguar Land Rover launched a subscription service in the UK dubbed Carpe. The program was effectively a 12-month lease with no deposit and no mileage limit, and an all-inclusive monthly payment covering insurance, tax, service, and repairs. For GBP910 ($1,134 U.S.) plus the cost of fuel every month, a subscriber could secure a Jaguar E-Pace at the bottom end, a payment of GBP2,200 ($2,741 U.S.) per month opening the doors to a Range Rover Sport. In between, the Range Rover Evoque cost GBP980, the Jaguar XE GBP1,200, the Range Rover Velar GBP1,255, and Land Rover Discovery GBP1,550. The numbers and customer feedback have encouraged JLR to turn Carpe into Pivotal, with new lease levels, terms, and restrictions. Instead of keeping a vehicle for 12 months, Pivotal subscribers pay GBP550 to join, then swap out every six months. Changing cars early incurs a GBP250 fee, or customers can request to stick with the vehicle they have beyond six months, but JLR reserves the right to switch out cars when necessary. Pivotal keeps tabs to the odometer, too — instead of unlimited driving, the program caps fee-free travel at 1,500 miles per month, 20 pence per mile after that. However, the FAQ section explains that "mileage is accumulative so do not worry if you do not use your full mileage allowance, the first month can be carried on into the next within a given vehicle."  Carpe's six levels have been reduced to four Pivotal tiers. Blue costs GBP750 ($934 U.S.) per month and offers access to the Jaguar F-Pace, Land Rover Discovery Sport, or Range Rover Evoque, clearly a much better deal than GBP910 for an E-Pace (and we like the E-Pace). Indigo runs GBP1,150 ($1,433 U.S.) for the choice of a Jaguar I-Pace, Range Rover Velar, or Land Rover Discovery. Violet, costing GBP1,350 ($1,682 U.S.), comes with just one vehicle for now, the Range Rover Sport. Same goes for Ultraviolet at GBP1,600 ($1,993 U.S.), which gets the Range Rover. The brand already has plans to expand the fleet with the new Defender, and plug-in hybrid versions of the Discovery Sport and Range Rover Evoque The only noted repair item not covered is windshield replacement, which carries a GBP150 deductible. The splashy rework in England comes shortly after Mercedes-Benz shuttered its Collection service here in the U.S. On trial for two years in Nashville, Philadelphia, and Atlanta, Collection couldn't get the traction Mercedes wanted.

Jaguar Land Rover exploring 3D HUD and infotainment projections

Wed, Aug 21 2019

With its most recent technology research, Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) is exploring the use of 3D projections for a world before and/or after autonomous vehicles come to fruition. In collaboration with the United Kingdom's University of Cambridge, JLR has developed concepts for a 3D head-up display that shows information on the road ahead and a system that projects personalized 3D infotainment for vehicle passengers.  As of right now, hundreds of production vehicles are equipped with two-dimensional head-up displays, some color, others black and white. Using various techniques and different technologies, manufacturers display information in a flat image in front of a driver. Some might find it distracting or unhelpful to have this in the driver's line of sight, and JLR might have found a solution. Rather than wedge the information in between the person and the view ahead, a 3D system that uses augmented reality could display the info onto the road in front of the driver. JLR thinks the system could project navigation directions, safety alerts such as lane departure, hazard detection or other bits typically found in a car's infotainment or instrument cluster. Some might find this to be even more distracting that 2D head-up displays, but to each his or her own. While the 3D head-up display is something that could be used right now, if it were released and passed legal, part two of JLR's 3D technology research is imagined for a life where truly autonomous vehicles are skating across the country. Using head- and eye-tracking technology, the system could lock into the position of numerous people in a vehicle and give each of them a personalized 3D projection "screen." This could be used to track a trip, look up points of interest, or even watch movies. JLR points out this could be used during ride-sharing without bothering others in the vehicle. The work with the Center for Advanced Photonics and Electronics at Cambridge is still in development for now, but it's only a matter of time before 3D tech makes it into cars in some degree.
