I am relisting this truck as the previous high bidder fell off the face of the earth after winning the auction.  Please, if you place a bid on my truck do so with the intent to buy my truck.  If you have less than 10 feedbacks please contact me prior to bidding. 

This 1990 Range Rover was my daily driver for eight years, but it has been parked since November of 2012 when I got a 1987 BMW 325e to tinker with.  According to the autocheck ebay provides, I'm the second owner of this 24 year old Rover.

The body is in pretty good shape except for a nice dent in the front driver's side fender. Since I bought it 10 years ago I have put on new OEM springs (not cheap), new Bilstein shocks all around (not cheap) and EBC slotted rotors and pads (again, not cheap). I put new Hela fog lights in the front air dam and new Hela halogen headlights. I also installed a new aluminum framed rear hatch so there is no rust on the back glass frame. An (extremely expensive) OEM radiator was fitted about four years ago.  I've replaced numerous other parts, but at this point some may need replaced again.

The main reason the truck was parked was because it had no heat-- the heater core popped the summer of 2012. I bypassed the core and drove it until it got too chilly. Since it has been sitting for awhile, one of the tires has gone flat and the battery is totally dead. The air conditioning didn't work when I bought it and I never bothered trying to fix it, but all the components are there. The radio works but drains the battery. The sunroof opens but hangs up on the roof. I'm sure that there are a few other things, but it is a 24 year old British truck. 

I pulled the battery from my other truck and put it in this one.  The windows, headlights, dash lights and horn all worked with the good battery, but the truck would not crank.  It will take some work to get this old Rover back on the road, so plan on bringing a trailer if you are the high bidder.  Do not plan on starting the truck and driving it onto a trailer, or tinkering under the hood and getting it running well enough to drive home.  Please keep in mind that this is a 24 year old British vehicle that does not run. 

I will gladly take photos of anything that anyone wants to see, and will answer any questions to the best of my knowledge.  I'm not a mechanic, but I'll try to answer any question that you may have. 

The truck is for sale locally, so I may end the auction early.  I have the title in hand.

Jaguar Land Rover likely to build US plant... in three years

Mon, Mar 9 2015

Jaguar Land Rover may very well open a plant in the United States, but the latest word has it that it'll be another three years or so before the company even makes a decision on the matter. The prospect first came up on our radar back in October when we reported that JLR was considering building a plant in the South. Georgia governor Nathan Deal even flew to the UK to solicit JLR's business. Former parent-company chairman Ratan Tata subsequently confirmed the idea was under consideration last month. And now the British automaker's CEO has told Automotive News that JLR will need a US assembly plant to fuel its growth in the vital North American market, but that'll it'll take a while to get going. The reasons for the delay, according to chief executive Ralf Speth, are threefold. For one thing, the automaker has its hands full at the moment opening plants in other locations: last year it opened one in China and this year it opened one in Brazil. It also recently opened a new SVO facility, an electric-propulsion R&D center and a new engine plant all in the UK, and can only handle building so many new facilities at a time. JLR will also need US suppliers of aluminum components to step up their game, as the company relies heavily on aluminum construction for their vehicles. US automakers shifting to aluminum for models like the new Ford F-150 will encourage American suppliers to get into the game, but it may be a while before they're up to Jaguar Land Rover standards. Finally, JLR will need to increase its sales potential in the US in order to justify local production. Speth says the company would need one model of which it could sell 30,000 to 40,000 units in the US alone, and it sold less than 18,000 units of its best-selling the Range Rover Sport here last year. In fact the entire Jaguar brand sold less than 16,000 units throughout all of last year in America, with Land Rover selling far more at over 50,000 units to contribute to total sales of over 67,000 units.

Jaguar Land Rover parent Tata posts a loss over coronavirus

Tue, Oct 27 2020

BENGALURU — India's Tata Motors posted a wider loss for the September quarter on Tuesday as the COVID-19 pandemic sapped demand in several of its key markets. The global health crisis has hammered sales for automakers worldwide and compounded problems for Tata Motors, which was trying to improve Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) sales amid weak demand and uncertainty related to Brexit. Tata Motors reported a consolidated net loss of 3.14 billion rupees ($42.47 million) for the second quarter ended Sept. 30, compared with a loss of 2.17 billion rupees a year earlier. Retail unit sales at luxury car unit JLR, which rakes in most of the company's revenue, was down nearly 12% for the reported quarter. Tata Motors, however, said it expects JLR sales to gradually improve. "Despite concerns around the risk of a second wave of (COVID-19) infections ... we expect a gradual recovery of demand and supply in the coming months," the carmaker said in an exchange filing. Total revenue from operations fell 18.2% to 535.3 billion rupees. Tata Motors said it was committed to achieving near-zero net automotive debt in the coming years. Shares of Tata Motors ended 1.46% higher on Tuesday while the broader Mumbai market settled 1.03% higher.

With a new Jaguar and the Shell app, your car can pay for its own gas

Wed, Feb 15 2017

Contactless payments are making their way into the car. Jaguar and Shell have the first major rollout, allowing you to pay for fuel through the car's touchscreen. Of course you'll still have to get out of the car to actually pump the fuel into the car, but hey, progress, right? Apple Pay and PayPal will be available payment methods from the start, and Android Pay will be added later. For this all to work, you'll need a new Jaguar (or Land Rover) with the InControl infotainment system, a connected phone with the InControl app and Shell app, some space in your tank, and some electronic money. When you pull up to a Shell station and launch the Shell app through the touchscreen, the car will use geolocation to figure out which station you're at and then prompt you to enter the pump number you're next to (don't want to pay for someone else's fuel now do you?). Once that's done, you tell the system how much fuel you want (it's not clear if you can just fill the tank like most normal people do) and then the screen in the car shows you a receipt; one is also sent to you via email. While this might just seem like trading one screen for another and entering info through your car instead of at the pump, contactless payments also have an added level of security over pulling out a credit card. (Credit card skimmers, which steal card data when you go to swipe at a kiosk or ATM, have been popular at gas stations.) It will also be welcome in the winter months, when you can limit your exposure time. Plus you'll never again have to respond to this incomplete sentence, which greets us at Shell stations everywhere: "Is this debit card?" InControl is available on every Jaguar and Land Rover model. And if you get this Shell app working on an F-Pace with the Jaguar Activity Key, you'll have the latest in minimal-touch technology. The system will roll out to people in the UK first and should arrive in the US later this year. Related Video: Jaguar Land Rover Technology Smartphone Luxury shell paypal
