2002 Range Rover HSE 103K miles!

Background:

As I’m sure you can already see, this vehicle is gorgeous! With its low miles, low ownership, and full service profile, this will be a distinctive Range Rover that should last you for many years to come. It comes to me from a client that traded up to a newer LR4 – their driveway littered with G-Classes and M-Series BMW’s.  Point being: This truck has ALWAYS been meticulously cared for.  If you’ve been looking for a distinctive, quality 02 HSE, your search is over!

Service History:

As a Land Rover technician whose passion for the marquee inspires my dedication, I always use the best genuine parts and expert skill with their fitment.  This truck does not overheat, hesitate or stumble and the shift quality from the transmission is excellent. All windows, sunroofs, controls and options work as they should.  The following is a list of all of the servicing done to ensure that your ownership experience is as enjoyable as possible!

  1. Head gasket service including: cooling system fluid flush and renewal, head gasket renewal, head stretch bolt renewal, intake resealed, valve covers resealed,  throttle body de-ice plate resealed, exhaust system resealed, engine oil and filter renewed.

  2. 30K mile interval service including: genuine spark plugs, New STI spark plug wires, New air element, New Belt, Differential fluids renewed, transfer case fluid renewed, transmission fluid renewed, all safety components inspected and adjusted to factory spec.

  3. ABS System Service – Full system flush and brake fluid renewal

  4. Brand new factory hoses installed.

  5. Brand new factory radiator and thermostat installed.

  6. Brand new genuine brake pads and rotors installed all around.

  7. Brand new headliner installed.

  8. Brand new battery installed.

  9. Brand new Goodyear 255/15/18"s installed all around.

  10. Newly fitted Bilstein Performance Shock and Spring Suspension.

  11. Clean California title in hand, ready to go!

 

Aesthetics:

This Black on Ash 02 is stunning.  With nearly 15 years of family service to its credit, it is still a head turner around town.  As you can see from the pictures, she details beautifully and the paint is smooth to the touch.  All of the woodwork is rich and dark and chip/crack free.  The leather seats are sumptuous and the overall feeling inside the cabin is truly one of lavish comfort. She offers an executive level of appointments that create a feeling of true confidence behind the wheel.  Additionally, she is a rust free vehicle, the windows, doors and sunroof seal nicely and the cabin ride is quiet. The original factory floor mats are in great condition and the 18” hurricane style wheels are near perfect. 

Like most Californians who have spent their life in the sun, this truck has its share of surface blemishes but nothing that takes away from the overall look that – in my opinion – is still red-carpet ready! You will find the average amount of parking lot variety dings and paint fade (most noticeably) on the forefront of the roof.  The interior may have minor flaws, but too few to mention. There are no rips or tears on the seats, and as said, the overall feel is that of a clean, OEM feeling and new smelling truck.

Operation & Performance:

This truck is a rocket ship!  The 4.6L V8 is as healthy as you would hope for from the vintage and fully serviced as it is you surge off the line with all the available power you could want.  Toggle the available “Sport” mode and this thing beats the pants off of anything you’re next to.  The ride onto the freeway is that of total confidence – she drives as straight as an arrow with no shimmies, shakes, or wanderings of any kind.  The handling is effortless and quiet and the shift quality from the transmission is velvety smooth.  You don’t even feel it shifting from gear to gear!

The remote handset operates all doors.  All handles, locks, windows, sunroof, & latches work perfect. All available multi function controls from the driver input stalks work perfect, the telescoping steering wheel operates perfectly inward, outward, upward and down for a tailored fit to the driver.  Power seats and split folding benched work perfect and yes, the rear upper tailgate stays up on its own!  AC/Heat/Factory nav all work great and all headlight, foglight, tail light, and blinker functions work perfectly too.

EAS VS. Coil Spring Suspension:

This is the most widely debated topic in Range Rover history.  Is air suspension a good thing or bad thing?  In my opinion, it depends on preference. The purists will insist that EAS is what makes the Range Rover a Range Rover. The pragmatists will argue that the original Range Rover… in fact, the line-up for the first 22 years never had it and was celebrated because of the amazing no-fuss, all-performance coil spring suspension.

This truck was fitted with the best coil spring suspension that you can buy.  The Bilstein suspension system on this truck is AMAZINGLY plush… while still giving you aggressive handling with virtually no body roll while cornering.  Dare I say it… but this set up feels better than any recent EAS vehicles that I’ve been in… How good are Bilsteins?  Well, put it this way: I RACE professionally in my Range Rover Classic with a coil-over Bilstein suspension system.

What’s nice about this truck is that should you choose to, you can retrofit EAS with relative ease as the core of the system is still intact. All EAS plumbing, tanks, sensors, driers, ECU and harness are still there.  The choice is yours; and you can get into this P38 knowing that you have reliability and comfort from the get-go.

Purchasing, Perspective & Why Buy From Me:

No one puts a Land Rover together better than me, PERIOD.  It’s the vehicle I drive, and the vehicle I RACE.  Nearly two decades of Rover ownership and service are poured into 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 vintage Rover 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.  I have A LOT of copy-cats out there.  If you aren’t buying one from me… its, well, NOT from me even though other sellers go so far as to “cut-n-paste” my listings!!!

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.  As I have said, my wife has driven this truck faithfully with no operational complaints but 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.

Who is this truck for:

This truck is for anyone looking for a great Range Rover.  Its fully serviced, ready to go, its got great miles, low ownership and because of the vintage and styling it would make an excellent executive level commuter, estate guest vehicle, first car, gift for your soon-to-be college student and even an excellent base for a luxury off-road expedition vehicle.  Be that as it may, the most important question is what will you do with her? There’s plenty of miles left to cover this summer – so get out there and don’t look back; no matter where this capable vehicle will take you!  Thanks and happy rovering!!!

Land Rover plotting high-performance Disco Sport, Evoque

Tue, Jan 20 2015

Jaguar Land Rover is getting serious about performance with its new SVR line of high-output machinery. We've already seen the Range Rover Sport SVR, and we're anticipating more to follow with SVR versions of the new Jaguar XE, Range Rover LWB, outgoing Land Rover Defender and plenty more. The lineup will eventually include performance versions of most, but not all of the British automaker's products. But while the smallest Land Rovers may not get the full-on SVR treatment, JLR reportedly has something in the works. According to Australian website Motoring, Land Rover is watching the segment and considering its options. It sees Audi with its SQ5, BMW planning performance versions of the X3 and X4, and Mercedes plotting an AMG version of the GLC that's set to replace the GLK. The question is just what Land Rover will do. Both the Discovery Sport and Range Rover Evoque are based on the same D8 platform that incorporates transversely mounted inline-fours, so fitting something larger might be prohibitive, but a high-output turbo version of the new Ingenium four-cylinder engine design could do the trick. Considering what the likes of Volvo and Mercedes have managed to do with their high-strung turbo fours, Land Rover's approach could prove to be no slouch at all – even without the 5.0-liter supercharged V8 powering the flagship SVR models. In related news, Autovisie – the automotive section of Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf – projects that an SVR version of the Jaguar F-Type will be among the high-performance models coming up next. Slotting above the F-Type R with its 550 horsepower, the F-Type SVR will be even more powerful. The Project 7 speedster packaged a 575-hp version of the same supercharged V8, potentially pointing the way forward for future SVR models.

Jaguar Land Rover and Cambridge have developed a touchless touchscreen

Thu, Jul 23 2020

Jaguar Land Rover and the University of Cambridge are working on new touchscreen technology that eliminates the need to touch the screen. Counterintuitive, right? It’s called “predictive touch” for now, in part because the system is able to predict what you might be aiming for on the screen.  The video at the top of this post is the best way to understand how users will interact with the tech, but weÂ’ll do some more explaining here. You simply reach out with your finger pointing toward the item on screen that you want to select. ItÂ’ll highlight the item and then select it. HereÂ’s how it works, according to the University of Cambridge: “The technology uses machine intelligence to determine the item the user intends to select on the screen early in the pointing task, speeding up the interaction. It uses a gesture tracker, including vision-based or radio frequency-based sensors, which are increasingly common in consumer electronics; contextual information such as user profile, interface design, environmental conditions; and data available from other sensors, such as an eye-gaze tracker, to infer the userÂ’s intent in real time.” Cambridge claims that lab tests showed a 50 percent reduction in both effort and time by the driver in using the screen, which would theoretically translate to more time looking at the road and less time jabbing away at the screen. If the prediction and machine learning tech is good enough, we could see this resulting in a reduced number of accidental inputs. However, on a certain level it almost sounds more difficult to point at a screen while moving than it does to actually touch a section of that screen. Without using the tech and its supposedly great predictive abilities, we canÂ’t come to any grand conclusions. One comparison you may already be thinking of is BMWÂ’s Gesture Controls. ItÂ’s already been addressed with a subtle diss from Cambridge: “Our technology has numerous advantages over more basic mid-air interaction techniques or conventional gesture recognition, because it supports intuitive interactions with legacy interface designs and doesnÂ’t require any learning on the part of the user,” said Dr Bashar Ahmad of the University of Cambridge. Of course, this tech can be used for much more than just vehicle touchscreen control. Cambridge says it could be integrated into ATMs, airport check-in kiosks, grocery store self checkouts and more.

Jaguar Land Rover considering Mexican plant

Mon, Apr 27 2015

Jaguar Land Rover has been expanding its production out of the UK and into overseas markets, and according to the latest word from Bloomberg, the British automaker is considering spending more than half a billion dollars to build a new assembly plant somewhere in Mexico. Since the Range Rover Sport and Evoque are two of the company's top sellers in the US, those would reportedly be the most likely to be manufactured at the Mexican plant, although Jaguars could follow as well. The automaker was previously said to be leaning towards a location in the Southern US, and while it could conceivably proceed with plans for both, it would be more likely to go with one or the other. State and local authorities below the Mason-Dixon line have been soliciting the business with various incentives, but lower labor costs South of the Border could prove more attractive to JLR and its parent company Tata. It wouldn't be the first, after all. Over the past month alone, General Motors committed to building the next Chevy Cruze in Mexico, Toyota did the same with the Corolla, Hyundai was reported to be considering a similar step, and Ford announced two new plants in the country amounting to a $2.5-billion investment. Luxury automakers like Audi, BMW and Mercedes have also been delving into Mexican production as well, blazing a path that JLR could potentially follow. The British automaker recently opened a plant in China and another in Brazil, while investing in additional facilities in the UK as well.
