Land Rover 109 stage 1 v8 station wagon, VIN SALLBCMV2AA101794 To see over 40 pictures, email me for a link. Ebay won't allow me to place the link in the ad. Yes,
a 109 Stage 1 V8 - one of the best and most sought after Land Rovers. Possibly one of the rarest in the US as well. If
you don't know much about the stage 1 V8, here's some useful background info
from various sites: "Stage 1" refers to the first stage of investment
by the British Government in the company to improve the Land Rover and Range
Rover product offerings, which eventually led to the Land Rover 90 and 110. The
use of the Range Rover engine and drive train made it the only Series III
vehicle to have permanent four-wheel drive. From
Landroverclub.net, an entire site dedicated to stage 1 V8's: "The Stage One V8 is - in our opinion - the best
Series Three ever built. Where diesel engines just lack power or 2 1/4 engines
lose power after 150,000 kms, the Stage One V8 keeps going strong. There is
nothing comparable to that joy when Sally, the prototype, revs up to 120
kms/75miles/h or passed impenetrable mudholes crossed by sheer torque. " This
Land Rover is in great condition for its age.
The body is straight, the motor runs strong and smooth. The dual carbs are a little touchy and may
need to be tuned for your altitude (I'm at 5500 feet and had them serviced last
year, running well). This
is not a restored land rover but is in great shape for its year. The original front seats have been replaced
for a set of Discovery seats, which I really like. The front grille is of course not stock but I
prefer the Defender grille, but a purest would probably replace it for the
stock wire grille. The paint is old and
was probably an inexpensive paint job. It looks
good from 10 feet away but when you get close you can see the chips and
scratches. Odometer says 137,000 KM (85,000 miles), believed to be accurate, but I don't have documentation to verify. A VIN check will indicate that this vehicle is left had drive. It was indeed flipped to RHD at some point in its life. It could be flipped back to LHD without issue but I actually prefer the RHD. All
of the gauges and lights work. This is a great vehicle and someone will enjoy this. I just don't drive it and need the garage space. I'm
into this over 17,000 and my reserve is set well below that. Please remember that this vehicle is 31 years old but fantastic condition for its age. Please give me a call or message with any further questions, and if you're local, feel free to come and see it.
The investment programme also produced the 5 door Range Rover, and
culminated in the replacement of the Series III Land Rovers by the coil-sprung
110" and 90" Land Rovers in 1983 and 1984 respectively. The Stage 1 introduced some new features which would be carried
forward to the 90/110 range. Permanent four wheel drive - most previous series
models had selectable 2 or 4 wheel drive. The radiator was moved forwards which
gave us the flat fronted appearance still seen on the Defender. The bonnet was
llonger than the 'standard' Series IIIs, rounded at the front and wrapping
around at the leading edge. The door locks are mounted in the door skin rather
than in the handle aperture (also carried on to military Defenders)." |

Your guide to vehicle subscription services
Mon, Oct 1 2018They might be extremely limited in scope because of location availability, but vehicle subscription services are a growing trend that most luxury manufacturers are jumping on. Plans are expensive, but you're paying for much more than just the car typically. We highlighted four of the larger plans with a few more listed at the end. Care by Volvo Volvo launched its subscription service last year with its brand-new XC40. It was the only vehicle available for a time, but subscribers can now get an S60 sedan as well. Subscriptions are for two years, with the monthly price including insurance, a concierge service, wear-and-tear item replacements and all maintenance. You'll be able to drive 15,000 miles per year with whichever Volvo you choose, and although there are no options to extend that mileage, you can swap cars after a year. Pricing for the XC40 is $650 per month in base trim, while an S60 can be as expensive as $850 for the R-Design. Volvo's plan is to offer more cars soon through the service, but it's relatively limited compared to others right now. Porsche Passport Porsche has two levels in its subscription service: Launch and Accelerate. Launch will cost $2,000 per month and give you access to the Cayman, Boxster, Macan and Cayenne. All of those but the Cayenne can be had in "S" trim as well. Accelerate is where the fun really starts. For $3,000 per month you can choose from a fleet of 911s, including the S, 4S, Cabriolet and Cabriolet S. If those aren't enough, you can also get the Panamera 4S, Macan GTS and Cayenne S. There are no mileage limits and you can change vehicles as often as you'd like. Also included in the price is insurance, repairs, detailing and any maintenance. It might be extremely expensive and limited to Atlanta only, but this subscription service is second-to-none for what you get. Audi Select Audi just launched its subscription car service, and it's offered in one version for a flat fee of $1,395 per month. For that you'll have access to five different cars including the A4, S5 Coupe, A5 Cabriolet, Q5, and Q7. Not a bad range of vehicles, but it would've been neat to see the recently updated A7 in there too. Maybe in time. Like the others, insurance and maintenance are wrapped up in the price. Audi is allowing for unlimited miles and two car swaps per month here. In addition to that, you'll get two days of free rentals through Audi's Silvercar rental agency should you go on a trip.
Jaguar Land Rover building new Special Vehicle Operations facility
Sun, 17 Aug 2014It'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.
