2003 Land Rover Discovery Se Sport Utility 4-door 4.6l on 2040-cars
Hershey, Pennsylvania, United States
|
Garage kept 2003 Land Rover Discovery. Since new this has been a Disco that has been maintained in an extraordinary fashion by only two owners. The first owner has been an administrator at the Hershey Antique auto museum for the duration of the car’s in-service life. All schedule services from new have been documented in the vehicle's Land Rover service manual. The car has had careful attention to all usual trouble spots. For instance, the differential and transmission fluids have been changed before 60, before 90 and at 115k. New front drive shaft May 2014!! These are services ahead of schedule to keep the keep the drive line quiet, smooth and long lasting. The obvious issues are addressed as needed. The vehicle has of course had intake gasket service and does not drip or ooze coolant. The car does not use oil. The car receives frequent oil changes in the 3- 5 k range with lucas oil additives to keep the engine fresh and tight. The vehicle has never been in an accident. Recent upgrades in the last 4k miles, new steering pump. New Michelins. Pictures should show the spare tire to be new, never on the road and, the rim I do not believe has ever been mounted. The rims are in very, very nice condition. The rims do show the changing position of wheel weights, but the rims are not bent or gashed in any way. The leather is very, very nice. No known leather tears. There is a small snag in the rear trunk area on the back of a lower seat area. The only detractor in the car is a sagging roof liner over the passenger side door. This is common and you will find it in all Discos at this point in their life. The only real fix is to remove and recover(about 400.00) or replace (about 900.00) I bought the car in the fall of 2013 from the original owner as she had just inherited a BMW from her father. I have owned over 20 newer Rovers, from 2001 to current, but I did not have a Rover for the winter and this was daily driver. The vehicle was washed a minimum of twice a week over the rougher months and sometimes twice a day. When looking at the undercarriage, it is a testimony to the vehicles care. There is no significant rust. My last two Disco’s eventually needed some frame repair as they were not attended to by prior owners. This car is extra rust free, there is virtually no scaling under the car, it is just that clean. All service was done by Land Rover Harrisburg and by Trevor at British 4x4 in Elizabethtown, PA> Trevor will speak to anyone who might want an overall report on the car. The last oil change was done at Land Rover Harrisburg and the vehicle received a full green light(standard Land Rover check list done at any vehicle service) on all mechanical checks including front and rear brakes, tires and all other conditions. The body is ridiculously clean and any buyer will feel the car must have had some repaint to be this nice. Only the front left bumper cover was recently redone as I grazed an post while parking. The CD player is excellent as is the sound system. Many old Discos have cracking stereos and failed CD players, this car is top flight in performance. Lastly, around town I consistently pull at or just under 15mpg. Which, in the 6 discos I have owned, 4 from new, this is the best performing vehicle of the lot. Feel free to phone me 717-773-1711. The car is priced fairly. I have already declined 6k, thus low offers will not benefit a prospective buyer or myself. Best regards, Todd

Jaguar Land Rover looks to hire hundreds of laid-off tech workers
Sun, Nov 20 2022LONDON — Laid off tech industry workers in Britain could find a new home at Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), as the 100-year-old luxury carmaker looks to hire hundreds of engineers to help develop electric car technology. The carmaker, which wants to become an "electric-first" business from 2025, on Friday announced a jobs portal for displaced tech workers to fill 800 roles spanning self-driving, electrification, machine learning and data science. The company said it believed workers leaving big tech groups like Amazon were most likely to have the required skills to fill new roles in Britain, Ireland, the United States, India, China and Hungary. The majority of the jobs will be in Britain. The hiring drive comes after thousands of layoffs in recent weeks at U.S. tech firms including Twitter, Meta and Amazon, some of which have offices in London and Dublin, Ireland. "Our digital transformation journey is well underway but being able to recruit highly skilled digital workers is an important next step," Chief Information Officer Anthony Battle said in a statement. JLR last year announced an electrification strategy under which all Jaguar cars would be fully electric by 2024 and an electric option would be offered across its entire portfolio including Land Rover. The company is owned by India's Tata Motors. Related video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

Weekly Recap: Chrysler forges ahead with new name, same mission
Sat, Dec 20 2014Chrysler is history. Sort of. The 89-year-old automaker was absorbed into the Fiat Chrysler Automobiles conglomerate that officially launched this fall, and now the local operations will no longer use the Chrysler Group name. Instead, it's FCA US LLC. Catchy, eh? Here's what it means: The sign outside Chrysler's Auburn Hills, MI, headquarters says FCA (which it already did) and obviously, all official documents use the new name, rather than Chrysler. That's about it. The executives, brands and location of the headquarters aren't changing. You'll still be able to buy a Chrysler 200. It's just made by FCA US LLC. This reinforces that FCA is one company going forward – the seventh largest automaker in the world – not a Fiat-Chrysler dual kingdom. While the move is symbolic, it is a conflicting moment for Detroiters, though nothing is really changing. Chrysler has been owned by someone else (Daimler, Cerberus) for the better part of two decades, but it still seemed like it was Chrysler in the traditional sense: A Big 3 automaker in Detroit. Now, it's clearly the US division of a multinational industrial empire; that's good thing for its future stability, but bittersweet nonetheless. Undoubtedly, it's an emotion that's also being felt at Fiat's Turin, Italy, headquarters as the company will no longer officially be called Fiat there. Digest that for a moment. What began in 1899 as the Societa Anonima Fabbrica Italiana di Automobili Torino – or FIAT – is now FCA Italy SpA. In a statement, FCA said the move "is intended to emphasize the fact that all group companies worldwide are part of a single organization." The new names are the latest changes orchestrated by CEO Sergio Marchionne, who continues to makeover FCA as an international automaker that has ties to its heritage – but isn't tied down by it. Everything from the planned spinoff of Ferrari, a new FCA headquarters in London and the pending demise of the Dodge Grand Caravan in 2016 has shown that the company is willing to move quickly, even if it's controversial. While renaming the United States and Italian divisions were the moves most likely to spur controversy, FCA said other regions across the globe will undergo similar name changes this year. Despite the mixed emotions, it's worth noting: The name of the merged company that oversees all of these far-flung units is Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. Obviously the Chrysler corporate name isn't completely history.
Weekly Recap: Ford GT inspires guitar, foosball table, sailboat
Sat, Apr 18 2015Ford design vice president Moray Callum had just wrapped up a briefing on the interior of the Ford GT last month, but something seemed out of place. He grinned and pointed behind him, "You might be wondering why I have a boat behind me," he said mischievously. It was there because Ford set its designers on a mission to stretch and showcase their talents: design non-automotive objects inspired by the interior of the GT supercar. Callum received quite a response, too. His team produced a guitar, a foosball table (yeah bro!), a racing sailboat, a Wi-Fi speaker and some furniture. As the veteran design chief explained, "It's a really great exercise both to highlight our designers' talents, but also to really see how our design philosophy can work and how you can use it and get a common response back from a worldwide design team." Guitar View 25 Photos The objects have been on display this week at the Salone del Mobile furniture and fashion design fair in Milan, Italy, where Ford has had a presence for three years. There's also a light exhibition that apparently was inspired by the GT, as well. While this might seem a little far-fetched for the automaker, Ford said exhibitions like the Salone del Mobile give its designers another way to be creative and ultimately produce striking interior style. Ford wants this to be a differentiator, as research shows consumers are placing emphasis on the layout and features inside when they're making a decision about buying a new car. It's a little light hearted – but it's also potentially big business. Other News & Notes Cadillac CT6 platform could be used for Buick General Motors product chief Mark Reuss said the Cadillac CT6 platform could be used for a large Buick, though "not yet," Automotive News reported. The underpinnings can accommodate rear-wheel or all-wheel drive and would give Buick the large flagship it lacks. The report jibes with comments Reuss made at a roundtable with Autoblog and other reporters at the New York Auto Show. When asked if Buick had space for a large car on the CT6 chassis, he replied, "Yeah, I think it does. Yeah, I think we do." Buick has revamped its lineup in recent years with attractive crossovers and small and midsize sedans, but hasn't added the proverbial flagship that's yearned for by enthusiasts. Buick surprised industry observers with the stylish Avenir concept at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year that raised the possibility of a halo sedan.
