Altai Silver on Granite Gray! Offered only for 1996, this color combo is a unique moment for Discovery in the US! If you have been looking for a serviced, low mile, wonderful driving Discovery, wait no longer!
Background: Let me begin with a little background. It was ordered in a uncommon color and option package. To begin with, this is the fantastic SE7 model. The SE7 model and this specific truck were optioned and were graced with Land Rover "Castor" (the factory name) wheels, 7 seats, rear AC, dual sunroofs and few other wonderful trim pieces. Originally first sold in Los Angeles in January of 1996 and serviced by LA dealerships for most of its life, the Rover stayed in sunny SoCal its whole life. The Condition and Service: This truck has been ENTHUSIASTICALLY and PROFESSIONALLY maintained and serviced and is a high standard for Rover service! Let's start on the engine and drivetrain: This engine has LOW MILES (less than 6,500 a year), only 110,000 miles appear on the odometer and the entire truck shows the same care. There has been A TON of scheduled and preventive maintenance performed to this truck to keep in near brand new condition. The engine is very healthy and has loads of smooth power! -HEAD GASKETS As part of the preventive service schedule, this truck received brand new OEM head gaskets and OEM headbolts. It was installed by a master Rover tech with several decades of experience. The truck runs COOL as can be and has never overheated. -UPPER AND LOWER ENGINE GASKETS While being serviced, the valve cover gaskets, valley pan gaskets, valve stem seals, upper intake gaskets and crank seal, all resealed among a few other minor seals. NONE of these were leaking, but were done in order to keep with the same high regard and care. -LOWER ENGINE Great shape, no knocks or mechanical issues!! As with ALL Rovers there is some minor "moisture" at oil pan seals, power steering etc. Its the British car way. That said the truck leaves no puddles or drips. -RADIATOR The radiator was cleaned and rodded in order to keep maximum flow and keep this beauty nice and cool. The temp needle NEVER moves past 7/8pm even with the AC on and in traffic. -WATER PUMP Brand new OEM replacement pump! -HOSES New OEM hoses -IGNITION Brand new Champion coppers (the RIGHT plugs) and wires. -BATTERY BRAND NEW battery!! -EMERGENCY BRAKE Recently adjusted and tight, only a couple notches on the handle holds the truck tight -TRANSMISSION The trans was just given all new fluid and shifts great! -DIFFS and DRIVESHAFTS New gear oil in the diffs and lubricated u-joints -SWIVEL BALLS Fresh grease, serviced and shims Lets move to the suspension and brakes: -BRAKES BRAND NEW OEM brake pads in the front and rear - loads of pad life! The truck brakes great. No ABS lights! -SHOCKS Great feeling OEM shocks. They are soft on bumps and tight in corners. The trucks handles wonderfully! -STEERING The steering is tight and has no excess play as you may find in MANY Discoveries. -4WD SYSTEM 4WD Low and High both work great! Let's continue to the exterior: -PAINT The paint is very nice! It is a 7 out of 10. The truck shines up very nice as seen in the pics! Ther are some minor flaws in the paint though. There is some clearcoat chipping and fading on the roof and some fading on the doors and trunk. Its minor fading, but just trying to be thorough! CLEAN and CLEAR CarFax. There are few minor dings which are very hard to see in pics and in person and there are some touch ups to the paint on the truck on various parts of the truck. Remember this is a 18 year old truck, there may be some minor scratches, wear etc, but they are below any expectation level for Discoveries or cars of this year. I try to explain these the trucks the best I can! The rest of the exterior is in very nice shape! -TIRES Great shape OEM Michelin XPC!!!!! These tires are fantastic both on and off-road! -WHEELS The wheels are in great shape with no major flaws or curbing. The Castors look fantastic on the truck! -GLASS Not to let a pebble defeat this truck, the windshield is great shape! -TRAILER HITCH The Disco has a factory trailer hitch and is wired up and ready to tow. Onto the cabin: -SEATS The Granite Gray seats are fantastic!!! There is NO tears, NO seams coming apart. They are incredibly supportive with what feels like zero foam wear. The leather is in very nice shape! Check out the jump seats! Impossible to find granite gray jump seats and these are in fantastic shape! -DOOR PANELS One of the big things with Discos is the top of the drivers side door panel gets cracked...not this one! All of the panels are free of dents or major defects. -HEADLINER No sags or tears in this headliner - nice shape!!! -CARPET Nice carpet in the truck. Check out the pictures! Clean, no tears and no major stains! -POWER SEATS All power seat functions work perfect! Hard to find in a Discovery! -POWER LOCKS All doors lock and unlock with central locking function and OEM remote! A rare find! -POWER WINDOWS All windows work smooth and quickly! -RADIO/CD CHANGER OEM radio works great as well as the OEM CD player! -AC/HEAT AC is arctic cold and Heat is earth core hot! The rear AC/Heat works great too! -MIRRORS Power mirrors work perfectly! -STEERING WHEEL The leather is very nice, no tears or issues! -CARGO AREA Cargo cover in place and operating (usually they are missing!). Good luck finding a granite gray cargo cover! -MISCELLANEOUS The OEM roof rack bars are on the roof and the original jack and ramp are are the hood The Experience Driving this Discovery is fantastic. It is Lexus quiet inside, pulls and handles like a sports car and is as comfortable as a Rolls Royce. Its got all the power it had from the factory and from even a little gas is torquey and responsive. I hope you can tell by my long ad that this truck is a great pre-owned and uncommon color combination Land Rover. Serviced and ready to enjoy for decades to come, or to further restore its minor cosmetic flaws or to make a camp or off road truck. It's LOW miles and ready to go another 100k++ miles. Treat yourself to this truck, that you will not have to dump TONS of money into in this NO RESERVE AUCTION! There is well over $5k in recent scheduled and preventive service alone in this truck so you are ready to go another 100k+++ of care free miles. Don't buy an unserviced truck for a little less than spend 2 times as much to get it to this level of service! Feel free to ask me any questions at all. Residents around the country I am happy to be flexible for your arranged shipper so that you can get your new truck as soon as possible. CA residents, registration recently expired, but I will deduct the expired registration cost from the final auction price so you will pay exactly what is fair! My standard disclaimer/mantra for any car regardless of service or price: The truck is sold with no warranty. You are buying a used car. Eventually every car will break, if you find one that doesn't please let me know. I do my ABSOLUTE BEST to offer only cars that are of TOP NOTCH service. I am not a dealer, just a guy who loves Rovers (among other cars) and hope to pass along my passion and fervor for these trucks. That said if ever you encounter an issue I do my best to provide advice, direction or even parts if I have them. Please understand that it is a used car and will have minor signs of use. That means please do not expect a showroom brand new truck. Please adjust your expectation level to that of a 110,000 mile truck that however is above average for its year with some minor cosmetic flaws. Please only bid if you intend to buy. If you would like to have eBay 3rd party mechanic service check out the truck I more than welcome it. Please check your local laws and registration procedures before buying. Please ask any and all questions ahead of purchase. All sales are final, you are buying as-is, the sky is blue, etc, etc. Sorry to have to give the boring speech. Please feel free to ask any and all questions!! Happy Rover-trails!!!! |

Aston Martin DB10 spied in action on James Bond Spectre set
Tue, Feb 17 2015Spectre, the next film in the James Bond franchise, is due for release on November 6 of this year. That means there's filming happening right now all over Europe as scenes are stitched together, and one of them involves the Aston Martin DB10 shuffling through maneuvers at Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire, England. Our guess is that Bond has become an unwelcome guest at a fancy event – there's a Porsche 959 and a Bugatti EB110 in the courtyard – which is why he is forced to make one of his quick-reversing escapes under fire. While that was being captured last week, the Spectre production crew put together another behind-the-scenes clip from filming in Austria, which gives us a look at the Range Rover Sport SVR and Land Rover Defender "Bigfoot" crushing it up some snowy mountain passes. That clip is below. Yes, we're excited.

Jaguar Land Rover CEO: Wrong Brexit deal will cost thousands of UK jobs
Tue, Sep 11 2018BIRMINGHAM, England — The wrong Brexit deal could cost tens of thousands of jobs, the boss of Britain's biggest carmaker Jaguar Land Rover warned on Tuesday, saying he had no idea whether his plants would be able to operate after Britain leaves the European Union next year. Ralf Speth also said that the company would not be able to build cars if customs checks meant that the motorway to and from the southern English port of Dover, which is used to transport components, becomes a "car park" due to snarl-ups of people no longer able to move freely among EU countries. Speth made the warning at a conference in Birmingham, central England, speaking shortly before Prime Minister Theresa May, who is battling to have her so-called Chequers Brexit plan accepted by many in her Conservative Party as well as the EU ahead of Britain's departure from the bloc on March 29. "A thousand (jobs were) lost as a result of diesel policy, and those numbers will be counted in the tens of thousands if we do not get the right Brexit deal," warned Speth, referring to redundancies made earlier this year at the firm. "Currently I do not even know if any of our manufacturing facilities in the UK will be able to function on the 30th," he said. The boss of JLR, which built nearly a third of Britain's cars last year, also said long-standing issues around low productivity in Britain could be compounded by a Brexit agreement which made the country less competitive. "It is thousands of pounds cheaper to produce vehicles for instance in Eastern Europe than in Solihull, and what decisions will I be forced to make if Brexit means not merely that costs go up but that we cannot physically build cars on time and on budget in the UK?" he said.Reporting by Costas Pitas
Jaguar Land Rover details JustDrive connectivity suite

JustDrive will allegedly deliver on the long-promised idea of natural communication between driver and car.
Jaguar Land Rover's all-new InControl system is set to get a big bump as the British company will add a new service called JustDrive, which expands on the smartphone-focused infotainment system by adding a singular voice controller for a wide array of the system's currently available apps.
