Clean 1990 Range Rover Classic - Southern Car on 2040-cars
Beaufort, South Carolina, United States
Original, unmolested 1990 Range Rover Classic. Always a southern vehicle, it was sold new in FL and has been in SC for the last dozen years or so. I bought it a couple of years ago from an employee of the original owner and it has been my wife's toy/daily around-town driver ever since. The Autocheck report shows the mileage as genuine but it estimates the number of owners incorrectly. Fairly sure I am the third owner. We've put 10,000 miles on it in two+ years.
If you're reading this, you know about these trucks. Unbeatable 4WD but quirky. This truck is nearly rust free except for the usual rear lift gate spots. Frame is perfect. 1990 predates the air suspension so no hassles there to worry about. The body is mainly aluminum and as a result has the usual dings you'd expect. The paint is original and has seen a lot of SC sun. Thin in spots but overall presentable. Four new tires in the last year with tons of life left. The power steering pump and steering box are fine - a little weeping but no leaks. I have not had to put fluid in it in over a year. Regular oil changes during our ownership. NOT using coolant and has not been overheated. Starts, runs and drives as good as it gets for an old Range Rover. The AC worked last summer but needs (at least) a recharge now. The cruise control works - pretty rare for an old Rover. The headliner is (miraculously) in near perfect condition and the sunroof does not leak. Carpets, dash plastic and woodwork are in decent shape for their age. All windows go up and down as they should and the central locking works on all five locks. Both power seats work and the leather is not in bad condition. Overall it is really clean. We're non smokers but I can't promise you my yellow lab has not shed some hair in the back! Put your canoe or kayak on the roof, stuff it with gear and go anywhere. You can't kill this one. We're moving and can't take this with us. Wish I had the space, it has been a fun vehicle. Feel free to call Eric with questions. (843) 321-1648. Thanks! |

Jaguar demanding customer data from reluctant dealers
Tue, 25 Feb 2014
Nearly every major business is collecting consumer data these days, and keeping that data secure has come to the forefront of many customer's minds. Jaguar Land Rover North America's decision to begin requesting more customer info from its dealer network appears unfortunately timed, however. If it had come a few years ago, it might have been ignored, but in today's climate of heightened awareness, a few dealers are pushing back. To put the showrooms in an even tougher position, JLR NA is threatening to deny quarterly incentives if they do not turn over the customer data, according to Automotive News.
JLR NA instated the nationwide plan, which it calls Single View CRM, on February 7, but according to Stuart Schorr, Jaguar Land Rover North America Vice President of Communications, the automaker has been negotiating with its dealers to institute the new program for over a year. Schorr tells Autoblog that no financial information is being shared, noting that such data is limited to customer details, including things like what vehicles they own and whether they have any pending service. The initiative is meant to "improve customers' and owners' engagement with the brand," he said. Also, the company is not accessing dealer data itself; instead showrooms are asked to enter the info into JLR's database.
Jaguar may join the FWD, small-car parade
Tue, 13 Aug 2013Was it right for Chevrolet to detune the 1975 Corvette's base engine to 165 horsepower? Was Aston Martin wrong to make the Toyota iQ-based Cygnet? Is BMW crazy to be testing the new 1 Series with three-cylinder engines and front-wheel drive? It seems now, just as in the 1970s and 1980s, that emissions regulations and social considerations are driving some automakers to adopt unbefitting practices to maintain acceptance in the eyes of governments and consumers. Jaguar has jumped on the bandwagon, and is considering development of small, frugal, front-wheel-drive cars to help lower Jaguar Land Rover's average vehicle CO2 levels in light of tightening European emissions regulations, Autocar reports.
By 2020, the European Union expects the model range of every manufacturer to average 95 grams per kilometer, which is a new law passed by the European Parliament in April. Manufacturers who make more than 300,000 vehicles per year must meet these targets, and JLR is expected to be producing up to 700,000 vehicles per year by then. CO2 regulations after 2020 will only get stricter, as EU politicians already are talking about lowering CO2 levels to between 68 g/km and 78 g/km. (To put that in perspective, Autocar posits that driving a fully charged electric vehicle in Europe produces about 75 g/km when factoring in the power-generation infrastructure.)
Jaguar has some choices here, but so far they all have drawbacks. It could develop a new, compact chassis architecture for a line of compact vehicles, but the investment required for such a project could be prohibitively expensive. Jaguar has been looking into using the Land Rover Evoque platform for a small SUV, Autocar reports, but Land Rover brand manager John Edwards raises issue with such a plan, saying it may not be financially feasible.
Jaguar Land Rover calls in handful of vehicles over suspension bolts
Thu, 24 Apr 2014With most recalls seemingly affecting mass-market vehicles, it'd be all too easy to assume, consciously or otherwise, that higher-end automobiles never face such issues. But the main reason we don't see the NHTSA recalling more luxury automobiles isn't because of their quality, we'd postulate: it's because of their relative scarcity.
Take Jaguar Land Rover, recalls of whose vehicles we only seem to have cause to report about once a year. So if you're figuring they're about due, here you go. The Indian-owned British auto group has just announced two recalls, both regarding suspension components: one affecting Jaguars and another concerning - you guessed it - Land Rovers.
First up we have a recall for 2013 to 2014 model year Jaguar XJ, XF and XK models - a whopping 297 of them - which have been found to have problematic toe links. Separation of the toe link from the rear sub-frame could result in impaired stability and control over the vehicle's direction, so JLR is calling them in to replace the nuts and washers on the rear toe links.
