I bought this truck on 1/14/05, sticker was $38 and by the time it was paid off in 2009 I paid $43,000. It has 7000 miles on it from driving back and forth to CA where this car was driven for 3 yrs until I moved back to Ny in August. This car was purchased for my X wife while I lived in South Merrick,NY in case we had kids. Since then (6/05) I used it as my third car as I decided to keep it 5 months later! From 6/05 to 9/08 while living in the city the car was kept at a friends home in the hamptons and was used on wknds only for daily drives. Winter of 08 I moved to LA where the car was kept far from any ocean and was my 3rd car while living therE. It was hardly used but always maintained. August /12 I moved back to NY and because of hurricane Sandy I lost my business and have to move to another city (Chicago) where I wont need a car once again. I need the money to make the move instead and now use different transportation and have no need for a car. This truck comes with automatic start (great for cold or hot weather!). This truck was NEVER in an accident and everything is original besides the electric start! *I literally know nothing about cars, Im going to tell you everything I know and what issues I know the car does have. I must move in 3 wks for a new job, this truck must be gone by then. **My reserve is low, Ive left room for shipping fees on your end. As well as what ever needs to be fixed.**
Problems with the car: The back left tail light needs to be replaced- the left side door; I was driving in LA and rubbed against the big round pipe that sits in front of the gas pump. In LA the talent of women is abundant and it was when I first moved there. As I was pulling away my eyes moved to the right as my car was turning left pulling away from the pump and I cut it short and pushed in the door. She noticed as others did and it was quite embarring as everyone knew what happened, she was that incredible!! I have been pulled over atleast ten times in LA and NY for someone to punch out the door and fix it- offers ranged from $150-$400 I guess it depended on my dress attire for that day.- Back seat; for some reason I cant fully push it back? It was fine until in August/12 I needed to move something and dropped the seat and that was that. All seats are in great condition with no tears or holes. Backseat middle seat belt was cut, 5 yrs ago it got stuck and I got frustrated and cut it, bad decision but whats done is done. Front moonroof; Hasn't opened in 2 yrs, I was told I needed to clean out some hole, (why theres a hole is beside me) leaves got in the hole and clogged it? No idea and was ok with it not working. My other car is a convertible and I had a motorcycle at the time. Front left fender area; someone's car seems to have rubbed up against it but its not dented, you can rub it out, that didn't bother me either. All minor issues that can easily be fixed.
On Oct 27th Hurricane Sandy hit, fortunately I went to stay in the city with a friend of mine up on 80th st on the 26th of Oct the day before, (my other car not as fortunate -vintage corvette). On the 28th I drove back into Long Island with supplies, food and gas! I helped as many people as I could for the next 3 days. I did drive this truck through some water that was up to my tires but I felt it was worth it to get people to safer grounds! On 11/05/12 I received a picture ticket: I took a pic of the ticket. NY was still is distress at the time and bridges where down still ( I was helping a family get to a better place) to my surprise I received the ticket over a month later. I took the car off the road in Dec as I couldn afford the insurance anymore with no income coming in (I pay $350 a month). The car was started every wk if not 2-4 times a wk depending on the weather that wk. The car drives well, tires are great, ZERO water got into the engine (it was checked by my mechanic after what help I could offer) all windows work, all lights work, zero exterior damage besides whats listed, no interior damage besides whats listed, all electronics work, BUT: some symbols pop up on the dashboard when I turn the car on, they blink? The light by the shifter blinks when normally it would stay solid red when in gear. Since I dont need the car anymore I have no reason to get fixed what ever needs to be fixed. Im selling the car as is and will not be held responsible for what ever issues the car may have. It could just be a switch or circuit or whatever its called that needs to be replaced or could be something more. I do know this, the engine 1000% is fine and the car itself is great! As far as electronics, the lights blinking I do not know what that is! I drove the car today (4/17/13) around the block and it drove fine, lights blinking and all. Please call me at 516.889.1729 for any further questions, Gary. This is for pickup only or I will work with you for it to be picked up. I sold my motorcycle to a gentleman in Saigon before leaving LA and that went off with no problems! Thanks for looking!

Jaguar to offer high-performance SVR models like Land Rover?
Tue, 01 Jul 2014At the Goodwood Festival of Speed this past weekend, Land Rover previewed its upcoming performance version of the Range Rover Sport. Only instead of wearing the R-S badge that adorns the most hardcore of Jaguar models, the performance SUV from JLR's Special Operations unit introduced the letters SVR. And now, it seems that badge is here to stay.
Following the Range Rover Sport SVR, a new report from Motor Authority now says that Jaguar Land Rover will use those letters to distinguish the top-of-the-line performance models from both marques moving forward. As such, we might expect SVR models of the upcoming Jaguar XE compact sedan and Land Rover Discovery Sport, as well as potential new performance models based on the new F-Type and next-generation XF.
If accurate, the move would seem to separate Jaguar in particular from the R-S badge that has adorned performance models like the XFR-S and XKR-S. Both Audi and Porsche use the letters RS to distinguish its most hardcore models as well (e.g. Audi RS7 Sportback and Porsche 911 GT3 RS). Whether the similarity was a factor in shifting to the SVR moniker, we don't know, but either way, we welcome the arrival of a new generation of Jaguar and Land Rover performance models - especially if they pack the 575-horsepower version of the company's ubiquitous 5.0-liter supercharged V8. Not incidentally, that delicious powerplant gained a couple of new engine bays to call home at Goodwood as well - it's not just found in the forthcoming Range Rover Sport SVR, it's found a home in the F-Type Project 7, too.
Jaguar Land Rover releases a vintage-looking infotainment system for classics
Fri, Sep 7 2018Jaguar and Land Rover have a new option for owners of its older vehicles: a touchscreen infotainment system. Much like the Porsche classic infotainment head unit released a few years ago, this one tries to blend in with its interior surroundings. Five distinct designs of these "Classic Infotainment Systems" are offered in an effort to have an option that fits well with the interior of any particular car offered by Jag or Land Rover over the past few decades. Chrome and black options are available for Jaguars, while brushed aluminum and black are the choices for Land Rovers. The infotainment system has navigation with 2D or 3D maps and Bluetooth audio. Sure, you don't need to stream Spotify in a 1970s Land Rover, but now you can. Jaguar says it'll offer much higher quality sound with a 4 x 45 watt output from the single DIN head unit, but you might need to upgrade those ancient speakers to actually take advantage of it. There's no mention of satellite radio like Porsche's unit offers, unfortunately. It is a radio though, so we get both AM and FM functionality. Jaguar says it's "compatible with negative earth vehicles" (newer vehicles use negative grounding systems) and retails for $1,796 before taxes in the U.S. You can buy and have it professionally fitted at an "authorized" Jaguar or Land Rover dealer if you'd like as well. It's easy to shake your fist at such a device for classic cars, but this head unit tried hard to be an elegant piece — we're still not sure about slotting it into an old E-Type though... Here are U.S. specific model fitments: Jaguar XJ40; XJS; XJ Series 3 Sedan Land Rover Defender 90, 110; Range Rover Classic (93-96); Discovery 1 (94-98); Freelander (97-04) Related Video: Featured Gallery Jaguar Land Rover Classic Infotainment System News Source: Jaguar Jaguar Land Rover Technology Infotainment
Not just 'our logo on a sail': Automakers gain technology from America's Cup
Wed, Jun 28 2017HAMILTON, Bermuda - From water taxis that "fly" on hydrofoils to aircraft wings and cutting-edge car steering wheels, the America's Cup has produced technology with potential far beyond its "foiling" catamarans. With their focus on carbon fiber and aerodynamics, the teams that fought for the America's Cup attracted partners including planemaker Airbus and automotive groups BMW and Land Rover, who were keen to learn from them. One area where this is likely to have an impact is in harnessing "foiling" technology, where the America's Cup boats "fly" above the water on foils, cutting water resistance. "Foiling in small electric boats will most likely appear on rivers in major cities. We are just at the beginning of the foiling adventure," Pierre Marie Belleau, head of Airbus Business Development, who managed its partnership with Larry Ellison's Oracle Team USA, told Reuters. The space-age catamarans used in the 35th America's Cup, which ended in victory for Emirates Team New Zealand this week, can sail at maximum speeds of 50 knots (57 mph) and have more in common with flying than sailing."CARBON FIBER RELATIONSHIP" For Jaguar Land Rover, which sponsored British sailor Ben Ainslie's attempt to win the cup, the relationship is a strategic one with a focus on technology and innovation. "We don't just get our logo onto a sail," Mark Cameron, JLR's Experiential Marketing Director, said by telephone, adding that the carmaker would be providing more designers to help Land Rover BAR with technology for their next campaign. "This is a dynamic sport that is developing fast. ... It's moving quickly just like the car industry is moving quickly. It's all changing," Land Rover produced a special steering wheel for Ainslie to use in the America's Cup, with in-built gear shift paddles that allowed him to adjust the catamaran's "flight" levels. The relationship is similar between BMW and Oracle Team USA, with the German automaker focused on areas including the electronics in the wheel used by skipper Jimmy Spithill, the development of carbon fiber used to make the boat and its components, and the aerodynamic testing. "We like to think of ourselves more as a partner than a sponsor. We have a very strong carbon fiber relationship," Ian Robertson, who is the BMW management board member responsible for sales and brand, told Reuters between races. "This is a dynamic sport that is developing fast. ... It's moving quickly just like the car industry is moving quickly.
