MORE INFORMATION DIRECTLY FROM THE SELLER
I have owned this car for 3 years and I absolutely love the look and drive of it. The reason we are selling it is because we are expecting our 3rd child in August and the back wont fit 3 car seats across. We purchased a new expedition and the dealership low-balled us on the trade-in offer so I decided I would just list it for a penny on ebay and let it go for whatever the highest bid is!
The body is totally straight. I think there is one slight dent next to the driver's side door handle (looks like a hail dent). I tried to take a picture but it wouldn't even show up. If there is any other dents then they are so superficial that I have never noticed. As far as the mechanical condition: This is a landrover and these notoriously have high maintenance costs. However, I have used this for three years as a daily driver and have had no major problems. I take it in to our family mechanic 3-4 times a year for minor upkeep type stuff (tune-up, new fuel, pump, new coolant reservoir are the recent stuff that I can think of). Again, nothing major though. Just keep in mind that this is a 2001 landrover with 159,xxx miles on it (will likely have slightly over 160k by the time this auction ends), so bid accordingly. There are no warranties expressed or implied on this auto so please bid accordingly. The mechanic that has worked on this was also the mechanic of the family friend that I purchased this car from (I believe they were the original or 2nd owners of the car) so you can feel free to call him directly and he can let you know the entire mechanical history of this car. His name is Allen and he owns Ross and Greenville automotive on Garland Road (right by White Rock lake). As a separate plug, if you are a Dallas purchaser then you should continue to use him as your mechanic. He is very reasonable and very honest (a rare find for mechanics).
Paint condition - looks great - no peeling or fading or major scratches that I know of at all. I regularly get it cleaned and waxed and it looks like a brand new car from the paint perspective. See the pics or schedule a time to come look at the car for yourself. She's a beauty!
Interior - Grey leather interior. The seats have wear on them, as expected from a 12 year old car but no rips or tears that I know of . No major stains that I know either. The leather housing on the four wheel drive and emergency brake are peeling (see pictures). The steering wheel also has some wear on it. There is a 6-disc CD changer under the passenger seat which I have never even used. The radio works great, the A/C works great (cool and heat).
If you would like to view and/or test drive this auto before bidding then feel free to send me an email and we can arrange a time place to come by. I want you to feel totally comfortable with your bid. AGAIN, it is a great car and I am sad to see it go. It has been very good to us BUT it is 12 years old and does have 160k miles on it so BID ACCORDINGLY.
All other "Negatives" that I can think of:
1) slightly cracked windshield (smaller than a dollar bill) around the registration/inspection stickers (see the pics). This can be repaired very cheaply by filling (should be done before winter or it sill spread). There is also a chip on the passenger side that should also be filled
2) the gas door wont shut all the way (should be easy to fix) - see pictures
3) the key that locks/unlocks the door and turns on/off the alarm is broken (last I checked this was $70 to replace but I never cared). This is needed to fully lock the driver side door. If you lock the door from the inside then it wont lock the driver door (since it is open/closed after you lock). So you will need to replace the key to fully lock the door. This was always garaged parked at work and at home so I never cared enough to replace it
4) lights on the dash - The lights on the dash (service engine, etc) are (and always have been) on. I don't even notice them but I don't want the purchaser to be alarmed about this. This was the main reason that the dealership cited for their low-ball offer. I have taken it to the land rover dealership multiple times to see if this could be remedied but they say this is very common for older land rovers and that nothing was actually wrong and it would be a waste of money to remedy it. It may be something that precludes you from bidding or causes you to be unhappy with the purchase so I just wanted to fully disclose.
5) knobs for the driver side seat came off at some point (though they all work)
6) the button for the horn came off at some point. It was replaced but looks slightly different that the other one (you would probably never know this but I wanted to fully disclose).
7) When the dealership removed the panel to see if they could remedy the "service engine light" condition they lost the screws so they put on some non factory screws which I think looks like crap but you would probably never notice if I didn't disclose it.
That's all I can think of. If I think of anything else then I will add it to this listing.
Bidding notes:
I reserve the right to remove a bid for any bidder that has a feedback score of less than 95% or has more than 2 negative feedback remarks. The reason for this is that I sold a car on eBay about 8 years ago with FULL disclosure and detailed pictures (as I did on this listing) and the winning bidder still tried to reduce the price when he came to pick up the car. I had to go through the trouble of getting that bidder removed from eBay and had to relist the car which was a huge waste of time (although I did get more money on the 2nd listing ;) Nonetheless, please only bid if you are a serious bidder. I have sold a half dozen cars on ebay over the last 12 years and have been extremely happy with the transaction in all cases except this one. If you do not feel comfortable with your bid then please contact me to arrange a time to come look and test/drive the car. I'm not going to accept any transactions outside of eBay so please don't try to offer anything. Whoever has the highest bid wins it, regardless of the price. The winning bidder MUST pay in all cash and must have this car picked up and paid for within 72 hours (3 days) of this auction ending. If not then I will relist the car and report the bidder to eBay promptly (I REALLY don't want to do this because again, it is a huge waste of time so please just pick up the car within 72 hours). If you are having the car shipped then please arrange for this shipping yourself and have the car paid for and picked up within 72 hours.
Happy bidding!

Jaguar Land Rover opens first overseas factory in China
Wed, 22 Oct 2014Anyone who's a car fan knows that Jaguar and Land Rover cars and trucks all come from the UK. And while we don't doubt that will remain true for the most part, it won't be an absolute truth for long, as the British automaker has just opened its first factory overseas.
Its new plant in Changshu, China, is the result of a $1.8-billion joint venture between JLR and local automaker Chery. It covers some 4.3-million square feet and will, once at peak capacity, produce 130,000 units specifically for the Chinese market, where JLR sells over 100,000 vehicles each year to make it the company's single largest market worldwide.
Production at what's officially known as the Chery Jaguar Land Rover Automotive Company will start with the Evoque, of which one in five globally are currently sold in China. Production will eventually encompass three models. We already know that the Discovery Sport will be next, but the third model line has yet to be announced. JLR has confirmed, however, that the Changshu plant will produce unique models and derivatives specifically for the Chinese market, so we wouldn't be surprised to see a long-wheelbase version of the forthcoming XE or next-generation XF assembled there to satisfy local tastes.
Land Rover will put a Covid-nuking air filtration system in future cars
Tue, Mar 16 2021Jaguar - Land Rover (JLR) is developing an air filtration system that inhibits up to 97% of viruses and airborne bacteria. Designed like a face mask for your car's HVAC system, it's built on Panasonic's Nanoe X technology. Most of the company's models (including the Land Rover Defender) currently come equipped with Panasonic's Nanoe technology and PM2.5 filtration. Nanoe X is 10 times more effective, according to the brand, because it relies on a high voltage to create trillions of hydroxyl (OH) radicals enveloped in nano-sized water molecules. Think of them as Roman guards in front of a fortress: they keep the bad out, and ensure only the good can come in. Viruses and bacteria proteins are denatured when they come into contact with the filtration system, meaning they can't reproduce or grow. The OH radicals also zap common allergens and mold, but they're harmless to humans. JLR stressed it's not relying on computer simulations to decide whether its filtration system works as designed. It asked British laboratory Perfectus Biomed to perform a test that simulates a ventilation system in recirculation mode for a 30-minute cycle in a sealed chamber. The results were encouraging: 97% of viruses and airborne bacteria were nuked. The carmaker pointed out Panasonic's Nanoe X technology has been independently proven to inhibit 99.995% of coronaviruses during a two-hour laboratory test carried out by French immunology lab Texcell. Future models from Jaguar and Land Rover will use this technology, though a representative for both companies declined to tell us when it will reach production, and which nameplate(s) will inaugurate it. Meanwhile, Honda launched its own coronavirus killer across the pond. It's a cabin air filter sold as a genuine replacement part that consists of four layers, including one coated with an active substance of fruit extract that inactivates nearly 100% of the viral aerosols it captures. It's available in Europe through Honda dealers, but it won't be sold in America. Jaguar Land Rover
Michael Jordan's cars showcased in 'The Last Dance' documentary
Sun, May 10 2020After the masses begged and pleaded for an early release, ESPN finally unlocked the doors to the biggest production in company history last month. Episodes 1 and 2 of The Last Dance, a 10-part documentary special about Michael Jordan, the Chicago Bulls, and the 1997-1998 season, was released at last on April 19, 2020. Each week since, two new episodes have aired on Sunday nights, and the next two, episodes 7 and 8 are scheduled to drop this weekend on May 10. With unprecedented video access to MJ, who became averse to the media during his playing days, a byproduct from The Last Dance is a look at some of Jordan's cars. The Goat's taste ranges across a number of brands, but they all had one thing in common: performance as a top priority. Below, we have listed the rides that have already appeared in the series, and each week, we will update with new car cameos. Chevrolet Corvette C4 The photo above somewhat epitomizes one of the themes of The Last Dance. Everybody, whether that was men, women, children, franchise owners, reporters, coaches, teammates, or opponents, wanted a piece of Jordan. If that meant stopping in the middle of the road to get an autograph, then so be it. Around town, MJ was fairly easy to spot due to his flashy cars that occasionally wore Bulls red. Jordan has driven numerous Corvettes throughout the years, but the C4 is unique in that it was Chevy's top ride when Jordan signed an endorsement deal with the American company during his rookie year in 1984. Two famous photos, one in front of the Chicago skyline, show him standing next to a C4 with the license plate "Jump 23." This exact car, however, came later, as indicated by the squared-off taillights. He went on to star in a number of Chevrolet commercials with vehicles such as the Blazer and S-10 pickup truck. Chevrolet Corvette C5 The most notable Corvette His Airness ever owned was likely the C4 40th Anniversary ZR-1, but he also drove a C5 coupe at one point. Roughly nine minutes into the first episode, Jordan is seen driving the chrome-wheeled targa top into the parking lot at the Berto Center, the Bulls old practice facility. Ferrari 550 Maranello Roughly three minutes into episode four, viewers get a glimpse of Jordan's exotic taste in the form of a red Ferrari 550 Maranello.
