It has 6 seats, FM Radio / CD Player, Cubby Box, Heated Rear Window, Power Assisted Steering, 4 Wheel Drive through 5 Speed Gearbox (Hi and Lo ratios), Tow Bar with Electrics and has a rare Snatch Land Rover Bull Bar fitted. This car has had a lot of time and money invested in it to make it a reliable and practical every day drive. It has a very solid chassis and has not had any welding on the bulkhead or foot wells. There is superficial corrosion in places due to the usual reaction between aluminium and steel. The under side has recently been steam cleaned and waxoyled. The body is in its original Land Rover Marine Blue and although there are some touch up patches it has not been re-sprayed to maintain its originality. The car is registered in the UK with VIN No. SALLDVAD7AA260405 and Engine No. 17H04089. Although not heavily modified it has had the following improvements made:- 1/ Wheels & Suspension 8x15 eight spoke wheels with General Grabber AT tyres. New OEM brake pads and shoes.

There are two sets of keys consisting of, Ignition, Front Doors, Rear Door, Petrol Cap, Pedal Lock and Hood Lock. All in all this is a solid, reliable and original Land Rover, with sound body work, tidy interior and healthy engine, which is happy to cruise at 60mph all day. It is a joy to drive something of this age and I am reluctant to sell but with petrol prices in the UK at about $10 per gal, it is too expensive for me to run. I was considering replacing the petrol engine with a 200tdi to improve fuel efficiency but decided that the car is too good to modify in this way and hope that someone in the US will appreciate its pedigree. SHIPPING Due to the specific import requirements for the US, the buyer (who would be the owner) would need to arrange and pay for the shipping from UK to US and all customs duties and fees. I have obtained quotes from Anglo Pacific ref 961679, for shipping from their local UK depot to New York or LA, which are available if required. The contact at Anglo Pacific is Mr Doug Dyer who would be able to advise you on the service they provide and what information is required from you. He can be contacted by phone on 011442088388028 or by email, dougdyer@anglopacific.co.uk. I would make arrangements to deliver the car to the shippers local UK depot with necessary export paperwork. PAYMENT Although the auction bids will be made in $ I would prefer payment to me to be in GB?. Within 48hr of completion of the auction the buyer to pay me GB?1200 ($1900) by Pay Pal. The balance to be paid within 14 days of end of auction or prior to me handing the car over to the shipping agent if earlier, by bank transfer. Thank you and good luck with the bidding. |

These are the top luxury cars bought by people entering the segment for the first time
Fri, 25 Jul 2014Let's say you just got a big promotion at work or the kids are moving out of the house, and you finally have some extra money. You decide to blow it all at once and treat yourself by upgrading your ride. Naturally, you look to a luxury automaker. What do you choose?
Models like the Audi A3 and Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class may be tailor-made to introduce buyers to the premium segment, but a new study finds that they don't garner the highest rates of non-luxury customer conquests. It turns out that a Volvo leads among folks moving up to a premium brand, and it isn't even one that's made anymore, at that.
A recent study by Polk and IHS Automotive looked at what models had the highest rates of buyers upgrading from a non-luxury segment. The information comes from its new vehicle registration data through April 2014. All ten top models boasted conquest rates of over 50 percent, but the Volvo C70 led the field with 68.01 percent of its customers coming from non-premium brands.
Top Gear pits Hennessey VelociRaptor vs. Range Rover Sport SVR
Fri, Jun 5 2015As a television series, Top Gear is in limbo with an intent to return, but no hosts yet. However, it's magazine and website continue to bring us clips like this one. While the video might lack the show's charismatic hosts, this is an opportunity to see a drag race between a Land Rover Range Rover Sport SVR with 550 horsepower and a Hennessey VelociRaptor with 623 hp. The duel between these two supercharged V8s definitely sounds great. Both rugged models start at the line growling angrily at each other like dogs ready for a fight. You have to watch the clip to see whether the more powerful VelociRaptor feeds on the SVR, though.

Jaguar Land Rover and Chery investing in Chinese plant
Sat, 24 Nov 2012While the European auto market for Jaguar and Land Rover is waning, Chinese car buyers can't get enough of the British marques. To meet that demand, Tata Motors, parent company of Jag and Land Rover, is partnering with Chinese automaker Chery Automobile Co.
The two announced plans to invest $1.75 billion to build a new plant and create a new, China-focused brand. 2014 is the target for completion of the factory. Jaguars and Land Rovers built at the facility will be the first ever produced outside the UK according to the Associated Press. The JV will be called Chery Jaguar Land Rover Automotive Company Ltd.
The announcement comes less than a month after JLR announced it would open a design studio in China. It's not clear from the reports whether the two announcements are part of the same JV or two separate plans.
