Today I am making the hard decision of selling my Off-road ready Land Rover Discovery. I bought this car in late January of 2013.  It had roughly 189,400 miles on it, and was in need of some TLC.  The man I bought it from had bought it as a novelty item and did not understand what a great car he had on his hands. Due to financial troubles he was forced to sell, and bought it from him days after.  As you can see I have been very busy with the Discovery, repairing and replacing item throughout.  My plan with this car was to take it from the "diamond in the rough" condition and bring it back to par with 2013.  I can tell you mechanically this vehicle is solid, the engine was just overhauled and given a clean bill of health.  All the lights and accessories work flawlessly. The transmission was also looked over and found to be perfectly fine. The tires and brakes are also in good condition with plenty of miles left on them.  By the lengthy repairs you can tell, I am not one to skimp out and am a perfectionist.  When I hear something or see something odd it gets dealt with that very same week. 

This car has been a weekend cruiser for me, and sadly due to lack of free time have not had the opportunity to take it off road. During the week it sits parked in a warehouse waiting for the weekend. The vehicle exterior and interior are above average for there age and milage.  Before purchasing this vehicle I looked at several discovery's (both newer and older) and could not find one with as much potential as this one.  The interior does not have any tears in the seats or carpet. The seats havent faded or began sagging, and the leather is plush and soft. The exterior body is straight, with very small dents on the drivers door panel (see photos).  The paint was not professionally done, and does not have a Ferrari finish to it. For a 14 year old off-road SUV spending $2,000 + on a mirror gloss paint job felt like a waste, since off-roading will always scratch glossy paint jobs. The car originally was gold in color with the common Land Rover fading/cracking paint.  I had the old paint sanded down, and sprayed with a coat of bed liner to prevent rust and oxidation. Then it was painted Mineral Grey and clear coated.  Very easy to touch up, making scratches and imperfections an easy repair. 

This vehicle has over $10,000 in repair and modification.  While the miles may be higher than to your liking, I can tell you its nothing to alarm you. The car is rock solid, and I wouldn't for a moment hesitate to drive it cross country or across the country.
I am selling this car because a close group of friends and I were going to take a road trip to Cabo San Lucas in it, however there just isn't enough free time to do all this, and I am not planning to go off road anytime soon.  Therefore it needs a home who will take care of it and use it for what it was built for.    

Please know: This car is 13 years old with 192k on the odometer.  It is far from a new car, and while it is in outstanding condition, it has its blemishes.  Please see all photos and videos below before purchasing or bidding.  
THIS VEHICLE IS BEING SOLD "AS-IS" / ALL SALES ARE FINAL
PAYMENT: $200 NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT IS REQUIRED 48 HOURS AFTER AUCTION CLOSE VIA PAYPAL.
SHIPPING: IF YOU PLAN TO SHIP THE VEHICLE, YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ACQUIRING TRANSPORT.

Please contact me with questions and concerns before bidding. A bid is a binding contract between the buyer and the seller.  If you plan to bid, you plan on buying. All violators will be reported to eBay.

Current photos are pictured below, however I have HD photos in the photo bucket album link below.  They were taken October 2013, prior to the exhaust, strobe lights, and parking sensor install. That is the only difference between these photos.

Tata to shed 1,100 Jaguar Land Rover jobs after coronavirus hits earnings

Mon, Jun 15 2020

BENGALURU — India's Tata Motors Ltd expects to shed about 1,100 temporary jobs at Jaguar Land Rover after it raised the cost-cutting target at its luxury unit by 1 billion pounds ($1.26 billion) to ride out the disruptions caused by the coronavirus outbreak. Tata Motors expects to save 5 billion pounds in costs by March 2021 at its Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) unit, the Indian automaker's Chief Financial Officer PB Balaji said on Monday, adding 3.5 billion pounds of the savings had already been achieved. It will also reduce capital expenditure at JLR to 2.5 billion pounds for the current fiscal year, from the more than 3 billion pounds it has spent annually in previous years. "Conserving cash and prioritizing capital expenditure, and targeting investment spending to the right areas is our focus," Balaji told reporters, after the company posted a fourth quarter loss. We anticipate that up to 1,100 agency employees will be affected, a JLR spokeswoman said in a separate statement. Tata Motors is reviewing all its businesses and would consider exiting those that do not add strategic value, as part of a broader effort to save 60 billion rupees ($789 million) in its domestic business in the fiscal year to 2021. The automaker on Monday posted a consolidated fourth quarter net loss of 98.94 billion rupees, as coronavirus lockdowns across its markets ravaged sales, including at JLR. Total revenue from operations fell 27.7% to 624.93 billion rupees in the quarter, which ended March 31. JLR, which contributes the bulk of Tata Motors' revenues, reported a pre-tax loss of 501 million pounds for the period after it took a hit of 800 million pounds because of the novel coronavirus, Balaji said. He said there were signs sales were recovering in China, one of JLR's biggest markets, as well as in the United States and in Europe, with strong orders for Land Rover's sport-utility vehicle Defender and Range Rover's Evoque. JLR's boss Ralf Speth, who has led the company since 2010, will step down from his role at the end of his contract term in September.

Is Jaguar's 3 Series-fighter the brand's last chance?

Wed, 16 Oct 2013

The 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."

Kahn and Evanta team up for hot-rod Defender, custom Barchetta

Thu, Jul 10 2014

If you're familiar with the work of Afzal Kahn, it's probably for his tuned Range Rovers. And if you live in London, you may have seen his Bugatti Veyron with the F1 license plate. But the British tuner and self-styled "automotive fashion designer" is now embarking on a far more ambitious project. Kahn is teaming up with Ant Anstead of Evanta fame – responsible for rebodying Aston Martin DB7s to look like DB4 GTs and that full-scale DBR1/2 model kit – on a new outfit called Ant-Kahn. Far more than a tuning endeavor, Ant-Kahm is setting about creating truly unique (and uniquely British) automobiles. Their first project is called the Flying Huntsman, a long-nose Land Rover Defender that we imagine will emerge as something like a British take on the 1998 Jeepster concept crossed with something Icon might concoct. It'll pack a 6.2-liter GM LS3 V8 producing 550 horsepower, mated to a push-button six-speed automatic transmission, mounted close to the bulkhead with over 15 inches of extra bodywork and set to be unveiled within the coming months. Their second collaboration is set to yield the Evanta Barchetta previewed by rendering above. "Inspired by the design language of 1950s motorsport," the Barchetta pays homage to classic British and Italian roadsters. It's being built around a tubular frame with handcrafted composite Kevlar bodywork and powered by that same LS3 tuned to 450 hp but in a much lighter form than the Flying Hunstman. Only 20 examples will be made after its debut at the Goodwood Revival come September. An Aston Martin project codenamed WB12 is also in the works, painting a picture of an ambitious startup backed by two experienced operators whose projects we're looking forward to seeing come to fruition. Ant-Kahn – The birth of a groundbreaking collaboration between two leading figures in the UK automotive industry. Ant-Kahn is a collaborative partnership between Afzal Kahn - innovative automotive fashion designer and founder of the Kahn group of companies, and Ant Anstead, founder of expert vehicle manufacturer Evanta, and star of Channel 4's "For The Love of Cars". Working together under the Ant-Kahn banner, they will lead a resurgence in British specialist vehicle manufacture, with a number of projects already underway. Their focus is on luxury and quality, using modern prototyping and manufacturing technology, while maintaining the attention to details associated with traditional coach building.
