Are You Ready For The Winter??  You can’t beat a Range Rover in the Snow and the Farmer’s Almanac is predicting an exceptionally snowy winter this year.

 

This auction is for my prized 1999 Range Rover 4.0 SE. It is the absolutely most desirable color combination and in fabulous shape. This is the second generation p38 with the Bosch engine. It is in beautiful condition and has been meticulously maintained.

It is fully equipped with a super heavy duty front winch bumper with steering protection plate and a Warn winch with (wired) remote control, roof rack, and high power emergency strobe lights in all four corners (hidden inside the signal lights), towing package with class III receiver and trailer wiring (plug your ball mount into the receiver and go) and slightly over-sized tires. If you are looking at Range Rovers, you probably know they come equipped with air suspension that tends to cause a lot of very expensive problems. This Range Rover has been converted to coils spring suspension for better reliability and better ride on and off road. There are no check engine light warnings or other warning lights on.

The Rangie is in great shape. It’s beautiful inside and out and in great running condition. Interior is in great shape, showing light wear for the age, headliner is not sagging, seats are beautiful tan leather, includes the rare factory Range Rover floor mats front and back and a cargo cover and load space liner in back. It has the factory stereo system with weather band and CD changer. My local mechanic recently inspected it and the only issue he found was a small exhaust leak. The only other issues I know of are that the winch cable needs to be pulled out manually, but pulls/powers in fine. I’m pretty sure that this is just a solenoid or connection, but I haven’t looked into it since I don’t off-road the truck. The only time I used the winch was to pull a UPS truck out of the ditch in front of my house last winter. Also, the heated seats and cruise control are not working. The Rangie is super clean, runs, shifts, stops without a fault. It never runs hot. ABS, Traction control, AWD, etc. all work as they should. As you can see from the pictures, the paint and body are in beautiful shape with only a couple small door dings. The heated windshield has a few small rock chips, but otherwise is great. Steering is nice and tight and the Rover rides and stops strong and straight. I would not be selling it, except for the fact that my wife now has the newer generation Range Rover and we can’t afford to keep both.

The Rangie includes the full owner’s manual, and both original keys (the original switch blade key plus the regular key).

Please be aware that the Rangie is for sale locally and I reserve the right to cancel the auction at any time. It is in great shape for its age and mileage, but please remember that it is a used car and is not in new car condition. It is sold strictly as-is, where-is and the buyer is responsible for all shipping arrangements and costs, although I will try to be as helpful as possible to make the transaction smooth.

A $500 non-refundable deposit is required within 48 hours of the auction end and the balance is due within 7 days. Please do not bid if you are not going to follow through. Your bid is a legally binding contract.  Please email me with any questions you have. Good luck bidding.

Ford's J Mays feels vindicated by Fusion reception

Tue, 25 Sep 2012

It's hard to think back now, but the same man overseeing the design of the 2013 Ford Fusion also presided over a rather lackluster period in Ford design, highlighted by vehicles like the Five Hundred and Freestyle. With the redesigned Fusion receiving high praise, J Mays tells Automotive News that he feels vindicated from criticisms suggesting he's not a daring enough designer.
When Mays took over as lead of design in 1997, he admits to having quite an ego ("My head would barely fit through the door some days. I've long since gotten over myself") and the workload to match. With the Blue Oval's portfolio full of premium brands like Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo at that point, along with the bread-and-butter Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models, Mays certainly had quite the challenge.
It was in the mid-2000s that Mays took over just the premium brands, and took on the new title of Chief Creative Officer. At the time, Mays endured some criticism for looking backwards to retro styling, rather than setting a new standard for American car design - criticism that Mays says he is free from with the all-new Fusion.

European automakers gear up for Brazilian production

Mon, 07 Oct 2013

Brazil is the place to be, apparently. Toyota has been investing in the South American country, as has BMW, which announced a $261 million investment in October 2012, on the heels of an Audi factory announcement in San José Chiapa. The high-end immigration is only set to continue, as Mercedes-Benz and Jaguar-Land Rover have both announced plans to set up manufacturing operations there.
Mercedes is the big news here, as its new facility will see the German manufacturer invest 170-million euros for production of its next-generation C-Class and upcoming GLA-Class. "Brazil is an important future market. With our local production we accept the challenge and take on the competition," noted Andreas Renschler, Management Board member for Production and Procurement at Mercedes-Benz Cars and Mercedes-Benz Vans. Production is expected to begin by 2016.
Jaguar-Land Rover, meanwhile, isn't so concrete in its plans. The news of its investment in South America comes from a job posting for a plant quality manager in Brazil that was picked up by the UK's AutoCar. "Portuguese language skills will be definite advantage" for interested candidates, according to the job listing. The want ad follows on the heels of remarks by Jaguar Land Rover's Dr. Ralph Speth, who said there are "very intensive discussions" with Brazil's government. Unlike Mercedes, there's no mention of which vehicles will be produced in South America, although AutoCar thinks the Freelander, sold in the US as the LR2, is a leading contender.

Jaguar Land Rover building new Special Vehicle Operations facility

Sun, 17 Aug 2014

It's only been a couple of months since Jaguar Land Rover announced the formation of its new Special Operations division, and we've already seen a number of vehicles to come out of it. But now the British automaker has announced a new facility that will house its elite skunkworks department.
Set to be built at Prologis Park in Ryton, England, on the outskirts of Coventry, the new Special Vehicle Operations Technical Centre will encompass dedicated production lines, F1-style flexible workshops, a dedicated paint studio and VIP suite for commissioning bespoke projects. JLR will spend some $33 million on the facility that will be home to 150 specialists - 100 of them being new hires.
The first project which the Special Operations division is working on is the F-Type Project 7, but we've already seen more projects in the pipeline - including the upcoming Range Rover Sport SVR - and you can bet there'll be more. The revival of the Lightweight E-Type also falls under Special Operations, but is undertaken by the Jaguar Heritage department located nearby at Browns Lane.
