 For auction I have a 1988 Range rover Classic in good shape with a newer 4.6 L engine. I bought the truck in 2009 locally with the intention to use it for towing my 19 ft. boat to the lake and some local driving. The original 3.5L engine was weak and soon I decided to install 1998 Range Rover 4.6L engine in the truck. Motor was purchased used and reconditioned in a automotive machine shop with new bearings, oil pump, piston rings, r/v cam and lifters, gaskets and accessories. The motor is running on the original engine management with a 4.2L computer.  The end result is a nice powerful Rover with good towing capability and torque. Transmission is in good shape, shifts smooth, transfer case works good too, no noises, and drives on the road with no vibrations. Only one little observation: since the new rebuild of the engine, there is one engine lifter that is a little lazy on first start up in the morning.  It ticks for about 15-20 seconds and goes away. It is been doing it since new and has not changed since. The  engine has about 20k miles since the installation and runs strong.
Brakes are in good shape, about mid life wear.
Suspension is good, this truck has no air bags suspention, just the  regular trouble free coil-overs.
Starter, water pump, hoses and alternator was replaced with the 4.6 engine ( 20k miles ago), a/c pump removed but still available, and the rest of the a/c equipment is still installed
Tires are all good, at mid life.
Muffler has a small leak, possible replacement is needed.
Windshield is crack free
All electrical system works, all lights good, sunroof works, all windows work, instruments work and accurate.
Body is rust free, tailgate and rear hatch is rust free, a few minor door dings around the body, a mid size ding on the tail gate (see picture), paint is presentable and shiny.
Interior is clean, driver front seat  fabric on the side is ripped( see pic), head liner is good and new, sunroof does not leak, one  front cabin vent grille is missing.
Washington title on hand, free & clear.
Truck is in good shape, there is no need for any serious repairs to be done, and is reliable for long trips.
If interested, I have a spare complete good transmission, transfer case available for the truck with the purchase of the Rover.

Jaguar Land Rover gets to work on new university R&D center

Fri, Mar 20 2015

Jaguar Land Rover has a raft of new products in the pipeline, from the new Defender to the next-generation XF sedan. But new product isn't the only thing the British automaker is investing in: it's also opening new facilities around the world, including what it's calling the National Automotive Innovation Centre back home in the UK. Based at the University of Warwick, the new $220-million R&D center is the result of a joint effort between JLR, its parent company Tata, the manufacturing arm of the university and the British government. The facility will bring together professionals from the automaker as well as its suppliers with academics to encourage, as the name suggests, innovation in the automotive sector. Its 355,000 square feet are earmarked to become the hub for Jaguar Land Rover's advanced research activities, including "workshops, laboratories, virtual engineering suites and advanced powertrain facilities, equipped to enable a full range of design, visualisation and prototyping activities." The cornerstore was just laid in a ceremony this week, but the facility isn't due to open until the Spring of 2017 when it will encompass some 1,000 employees, including 600 relocated by JLR to the new location from other sites in the UK.

Jaguar Land Rover won't get a bailout from the UK

Sun, Aug 16 2020

Bailout talks between Jaguar Land Rover and Tata Steel with the UK government have ended, leaving both firms to rely on private financing to overcome the impact of coronavirus on business, the Financial Times reported on Friday. The report said that talks for an emergency funding fell through as Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) did not qualify for taxpayer support. It is the luxury car unit of India's Tata Motors and Tata Steel, both owned by Indian conglomerate Tata Group. The bailout plan, titled "Project Birch", had been authorized by Finance Minister Rishi Sunak in May to rescue companies that are seen as strategically important, with the Treasury saying it may step in to support crucial businesses on a "last resort" basis after other options run out. The report, citing a source familiar with the matter, said that the funding scheme became infeasible for Tata as it imposed strict conditions on any lending. "Tata Steel remains in ongoing and constructive talks with the UK Government on areas of potential support," Tata Steel said in an emailed statement. The UK Treasury said it would not comment on individual companies. Tata Motors did not immediately respond to request for comment.

Lots of Land Rovers, Jaguars and Minis actually survived that near-capsized ship

Thu, Jan 29 2015

Despite a severe list to starboard, many of the 1,400 cars and SUVs aboard the 51,000-ton Hoegh Osaka are currently being recovered in salvageable condition, with video showing some of the vehicles from British brands Land Rover, Jaguar and Mini, being driven ashore under their own power. The car-carrying vessel developed a severe list on January 3 and was intentionally run aground on a sandbar between England and the Isle of Wight. It has since limped its way back to port in Southampton, where damage assessments are being conducted on both the ship and its $53-million in cargo. According to the company that owns the car carrier, the ship itself only suffered minor damage in the incident, while Car and Driver is reporting that many of the damaged vehicles will almost certainly be scrapped. Still, the fact that there are vehicles, some of which appear undamaged (look at that Defender at 0:50!), being removed from the Hoegh Osaka needs to count as a net win.
