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)." |

Is Jaguar's 3 Series-fighter the brand's last chance?
Wed, 16 Oct 2013The upcoming line of compact 3 Series-fighters from Jaguar, often referred to as the Jaguar XS, could consist of a sedan, wagon and possibly a coupe and GT model (think BMW 5 Series GT). The car's all-aluminum architecture also will provide the basis for two new sports utility vehicles. Just how important is the much-touted "baby Jag" project to parent company Jaguar Land Rover? A JLR executive reportedly says the brand's survival is directly linked to the success of the XS, codenamed X760, Autocar reports.
The brand's survival is directly linked to the success of the XS.
"If the X760 fails, it will probably be the end for the [Jaguar] brand," the executive says. But Adrian Hallmark, Jaguar's global brand director, claims Jaguar will "build the most advanced, most efficient, most refined car in that [compact luxury sedan] segment. Not almost as good as, but better than the best in the world."
Jaguar Land Rover partners with Nvidia for vehicle electronics and software
Wed, Feb 16 2022DETROIT — Luxury automaker Jaguar Land Rover and Silicon Valley artificial intelligence company Nvidia said Wednesday they will collaborate to develop the computer brains and nervous systems for Jaguars and Land Rovers launching in 2025 and beyond. The companies did not disclose financial terms of their multiyear agreement. The collaboration is a high-profile win for Nvidia Corp's effort to expand its reach in the auto industry, building on its base in gaming, artificial intelligence and high-powered chips and software used in servers. For Jaguar Land Rover Automotive, the partnership with Nvidia gives it a well-funded ally as it tries to catch up with Tesla and other luxury vehicle rivals in a digital technology arms race. "We can now accelerate our in-vehicle software," Francois Dossa, JLR's executive director for strategy, said during a conference call. Working with Nvidia engineers, Jaguar Land Rover plans to develop vehicles that can drive themselves under certain conditions, park autonomously and provide more information and software-powered features to drivers, the companies said. The new Jaguars will be upgradable — as Tesla vehicles are today. The automaker said it will use Nvidia technology to power simulations used to train autonomous vehicles. Jaguar Land Rover has a previous deal with Alphabet Inc's Waymo unit to deploy autonomous driving technology. Dossa said the Waymo collaboration was limited to the Jaguar I-PACE electric SUV. The Nvidia alliance covers all Jaguar and Land Rover models to be launched from 2025. Nvidia technology will act as the brains and the nervous system of Jaguar Land Rover vehicles starting in 2025, said Nvidia's vice president of automotive, Danny Shapiro. Nvidia last month announced deals with several Chinese electric vehicle brands. The company has said it has $8 billion in automotive business booked over the next six years. Shapiro said the company will update the figure during an investor day scheduled for March 22. Jaguar Land Rover, a subsidiary of India's Tata Motors Ltd has been struggling with rising costs and semiconductor shortages. Jaguar Land Rover reported a narrow pretax profit for the quarter ended Dec. 31, but Tata Motors reported a larger quarterly loss than expected.
