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.

All Jaguars and Land Rovers to get diesel engines... almost

Mon, Jan 12 2015

Virtually all Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles – except the F-Type sports car – will get a diesel engine option in the next three years, the company confirmed Sunday night at an event before the Detroit Auto Show. The aggressive blitz begins this fall, when the 2016 Range Rover and Range Rover Sport will launch with available turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 diesel engines. They will push out 254 horsepower and 440 pound-feet of torque, while returning fuel economy of up to 28 miles per gallon on the highway. The combined rating in city and highway driving will be 25 mpg. The Rovers will be followed in 2016 by the XE sedan and F-Pace crossover, which will offer the 2.0-liter turbodiesel four-cylinder engines, in addition to gasoline units. The diesel-powered XE is expected to get at least 40 mpg on the highway, Jaguar Land Rover North America CEO Joe Eberhardt said. The oil-burners are expected to offer 20-to-30 percent improvements in fuel economy compared with gasoline engines, depending on the vehicle. JLR's announcement comes as gasoline prices have plummeted in the United States, and regular fuel costs about $1 less than a gallon of diesel, according to AAA research. Still, the company is taking the long view, and Eberhardt said diesel engines offer greater performance and range than other options. JLR expects about 20 percent of its customers will opt for diesel engines. "We strongly believe this is what our customers will want, regardless of the fluctuations in gas prices," he said.

Jaguar Land Rover cutting production in face of falling demand

Sat, Feb 8 2020

LONDON — Jaguar Land Rover will reduce or stop production on certain days at two of its British factories over the next few weeks as Britain's biggest carmaker pursues cost-cutting measures in response to falling demand. JLR posted a 2.3% drop in retail sales in the three months to the end of December and has targeted billions of pounds worth of savings to tackle falling diesel demand in Europe and a tough sales environment in China. The firm will halt production on selected days over a four-week period from late February at its Castle Bromwich factory in central England and stop production on some half or full days at its nearby Solihull facility until the end of March. "The external environment remains challenging for our industry and the company is taking decisive actions to achieve the necessary operational efficiencies to safeguard long-term success," the company said in a statement. "We have confirmed that Solihull and Castle Bromwich will make some minor changes to their production schedules to reflect fluctuating demand globally, whilst still meeting customer needs." The move is not connected to coronavirus, a spokeswoman said, which prompted Fiat Chrysler to warn on Thursday that a European plant could shut down within two to four weeks if Chinese parts suppliers cannot get back to work.

Jaguar Land Rover tech tracks brainwaves, heart, lungs

Wed, Jun 17 2015

Jaguar Land Rover has been on a bit of a tech kick lately, and its latest is called Mind Sense, which uses biometric sensors to monitor and enhance the driver's level of alertness. Jaguar is installing brainwave sensors adapted from NASA into the steering wheel of an XJ sedan, along with medical-grade heart and respiratory sensors in the seat. Together, the sensors would determine if the driver is focused on the road, dozing off, merely thinking about something else, or if the driver's stress level suddenly peaks. The system would enable the vehicle to better prepare for an emergency, or for a future autonomous vehicle to hand off control to a better-prepared driver where needed. At the same time, JLR is also working on an enhanced infotainment system designed to reduce the amount of time the driver's hands are off the wheel and their eyes are off the road. The system determines which control they're reaching for on the display and engages it while their finger is still in mid-air, deploying an ultrasonic pulse to provide artificial haptic feedback without actually having to touch anything. Finally, a new haptic accelerator pedal is under development that could alert the driver to respond to an impending situation without overloading the senses with chimes and beeps. These latest developments follow the demonstration of a remote-control system installed on a Range Rover Sport, and follow in a long line of new technologies under development by the British automaker. JAGUAR LAND ROVER ROAD SAFETY RESEARCH INCLUDES BRAIN WAVE MONITORING TO IMPROVE DRIVER CONCENTRATION AND REDUCE ACCIDENTS - Jaguar Land Rover's pioneering Mind Sense project is researching measuring brainwaves to monitor driver concentration in the car - Researchers are developing a Wellness Seat in a Jaguar XJ which analyses the driver's heart rate and breathing to monitor driver health and stress - Touchscreens that predict which button you want to press as the user's fingers are in mid-air - to minimise time spent with eyes off the road - Jaguar Land Rover researchers use new haptic accelerator pedal to communicate hazards to the driver Whitley, UK: Jaguar Land Rover has revealed a range of new road safety technology research projects that are being developed to reduce the number of accidents caused by drivers who are stressed, distracted and not concentrating on the road ahead.
