For sale is my 1991 Range Rover with just under 103,000 original miles. I purchased it in early summer this year in hopes to fully restore its original beauty and make it my daily driver. Unfortunately, this "dream" will have to wait until another time period and I regretfully need to sell due to financial reasons. Since purchased I have put less than 500 miles on it; most recently being a 95 mile round trip utilizing highway (70-80 mph) and city (25-45 mph) roads. I must say that I am very impressed with the way that it drives.

Being that I have only owned it a couple months, I can only tell you what I know to the best of my knowledge. With that being said, here is my best shot at an overview:

This RR has 102,423 original miles (which may change due to occasional driving and being listed locally). It is green in color and could really benefit from a new paint job. To be honest, this was going to be the first thing that I planned on getting done after winter. I planned on having minor body work done on the rust areas (as shown in the pictures) and then a complete paint job after winter. As I just mentioned, it has some rust bubbling under the paint in some areas and surface rust as well, mostly on the bumper and hitch (also shown in pictures). The tires in my estimate have about 85% tread left and all seem to show consistent wear. The spare is there, but would recommend replacing it for a more reliable tire.

This RR is equipped with cruise and I honestly have not tried to use it so I am not sure if it works. I can check it if requested, but since I never use it on my family vehicles, I never tested it. The radio has a cassette player, but currently no sound comes out of the speakers. There is power to the stereo, but no sound. I have not checked it out to see if the issue is the connection or the speakers. It also has air / heat. I can say that the blower works, but the air is not ice cold and it has not been cold enough to check the heater. The sun/moon roof works as do the power seats, power mirrors, and all 4 power windows. The front and rear wipers work and I was told that the rear brakes were replaced. I was also told that the pitman ball arms were replaced in the front before I purchased it which makes the steering feel tight. It also comes with new brake pads and rotors for the front and rear (as shown in the pictures in a box). All that needs to be done is install. The interior for its age looks amazing...especially the rear seats and floor.

The worst things that I can mention about this RR is there is a 1.4amp battery drain that over time will kill the battery (previous owner informed me). The previous owner installed a twist know battery connection that cuts the power to the vehicle when parked for long periods of time. I had it parked for a week with the disconnect and then started it right up when reconnected (this was also something I was going to investigate getting fixed to make it a more reliable daily driver). The windshield wash light comes on and off even though it is full. I haven't been able to see if there is a loose connection to the sensor, but that would be the first place I would check. The engine light comes on after a period of time. I narrowed it down to after it is running for a while when warmed up, if you sit in park or are stuck in traffic for a period of time (stop light) is when it comes on. I did drive it last week for about 2 hours with shutting off the vehicle a couple times for about 5 min each. During a 30 min consistent 25-40 mph drive and no long idles, the check engine light did not come on; hence my original assumption. I am not a mechanic so I have no real idea what it could be. I drove it 70 miles with it on and had no issues...and as mentioned I drove it for about 35-40 miles with no long idling and the light never came on. To me there isn't anything that seems to affect the vehicle, but again, I am not a mechanic. Also, the headliner is sagging and needs to eventually be repaired / replaced. This is typical on these older RR's.

Please remember that this is a 22 year old vehicle and is far from being new. You will hear the "creaks and squeaks" of a true truck of this age and will always have something that will need attention. I will say though that I have been looking for one for a long time and this is one of the lowest mileage RR's that I have found this old. If I didn't run into the immediate financial need, I would not be listing this as it took me a long time to find one with these miles and current shape without any restoration done to it.

If you have any questions, I will try to answer them to the best of my knowledge.  I apologize if there is anything I forgot, but I hope my description covers it as well as the pictures.

Winning bidder is responsible for a $500 non-refundable deposit.  Remaining balance needs to be paid by certified funds or cash.  Shipping is the responsibility of the winning bidder; however I prefer local pickup.  I can only assist by being available at time of pickup if winning bid is not local and shipping is required.  I also have this listed locally and have the right to cancel the listing at any time.  If seriously interested, please contact me after bidding so I can communicate any local interest which might negate the high bid.

Thanks for looking!

Top horsepower-per-dollar cars in 2017

Tue, Feb 17 2015

Bang for the buck. That quasi-scientific statistic is bandied about by motor heads everywhere from classrooms to barrooms, though the truth of the matter is that it's exceedingly complex to measure. A fair performance-per-dollar index would include something like cross-referencing MSRP (Manufacturers Suggested Retail Price) with point-to-point times on a track or driving route, which is obviously hard to do comprehensively. But, for the sheer joy of talking about cars and playing with a big spreadsheet, there's always the horsepower-per-dollar index, which is more straightforward, albeit hilariously flawed. There are vagaries even with this simple formula, of course: MSRP for vehicles can change at a moment's notice, to say nothing of the bottom-line shifting that happens with local deals or showroom negotiation. For this list we're running with the straight MSRP wherever possible, and as recently reported as we can get it. All the vehicles on this list are 2017 models, and all trims are reported where the lowest price and differing power levels intersect. Some choices were made for personal preference and some for sanity, avoiding things like all 48 trim levels of the Ford Transit, all with the same horsepower). If this list were a simple top ten, or even a top fifty, you'd be bored to tears with all the red, white and blue that is represented. Following perfectly with conventional wisdom, American cars really do lead the world where hp/$ is concerned. So, for the sake of variety (and the sheer joy of seeing a minivan 'win' one round of this thing) I've sorted out some top five and bottom five lists for broad power categories. Let's dive in. Less Than 100 Horsepower Okay, okay, this is hardly a category we'll grant you. But we've often tried to click off all the sub-100-hp cars on sale in the US, and making this list gave us an excuse. It also illustrates that none of these smallish vehicles bring cheap horsepower to the table - for that you'll need a motorcycle. The segment-leading Chevy Spark (above) asks just over $139 for each hp, and that Smart Fortwo Electric Drive has hp on sale for about the same price as its very distant family cousin, the Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG (insert your favorite Smart joke here... we know you want to).

Jaguar Land Rover output at two UK plants hit by chip shortage

Thu, Apr 22 2021

LONDON — Output at two of Jaguar Land Rover's (JLR) British car factories will be temporarily halted from Monday, due to COVID-19 supply chain disruption, including a lack of semi-conductors, the firm said on Thursday. "We have adjusted production schedules for certain vehicles which means that our Castle Bromwich and Halewood manufacturing plants will be operating a limited period of non-production from Monday 26th April," the Tata Motors-owned company said. The COVID-19 pandemic has driven up demand for semiconductor chips for use in electronics like computers, as people worked from home, and suppliers are struggling to adjust, hitting output at many automakers. Trade flows have also been affected. On Wednesday, carmaker Stellantis said it would replace digital speedometers with more old-fashioned analogue ones in one of its Peugeot models, as the fallout continues. Renault's finance chief said on Thursday that car production fell by tens of thousands of vehicles in the first quarter as a result of the shortage. Output at JLR's third British car factory in Solihull, central England, will continue, the company said. "We are working closely with affected suppliers to resolve the issues and minimize the impact on customer orders wherever possible."  

Jaguar wants to become the British electric company

Thu, Sep 8 2016

Jaguar has been telegraphing its electric future for years, and this week we're beginning to see it come to fruition. The company's Formula E race team officially launched September 8 with sponsorship, livery, and an interesting name for its racecar, the I-Type 1. It marks Jaguar's return to factory-supported racing and serves as a model for the company's future strategy. "The Formula E championship will enable us to engineer and test our advanced technologies under extreme performance conditions," Nick Rogers, executive director of product engineering at Jaguar Land Rover, said in a statement. "We will apply this vital knowledge as part of our real-world development." Formula E competition starts October 9 as the all-electric racing series begins its third season. Panasonic signed on as the title sponsor of the team. Formula E is a natural move for Jag and allows the British company to remain true to its racing heritage while still looking toward. The company claims seven Le Mans titles, which is the fourth-most in history, even though it hasn't won one since 1990. That's a great lineage, but Jaguar knows it's getting dusty. Launching a Formula E effort allows it to compete in a form of motorsports that should prove relevant to road-car technology. Jag is drawing on Williams Advanced Engineering (you might have heard of its F1 team) for the electric powertrain. Williams also helped with the development of Jaguar's C-X75 plug-in concept car. Meanwhile, we also captured an F-Pace crossover silently testing this week in the Alps. Though it looks like a normal F-Pace, spy shooters report it was producing no engine noise, leading (or perhaps leaping) to the conclusion it's the rumored electric SUV Jaguar is working on. Likely, this prototype has a diesel engine as a range extender. View 11 Photos Though the camouflaged F-Pace is great fodder for speculation, Jag's electric efforts are not a secret. Jaguar and Land Rover showed off three electric-vehicle demonstrators last year and the company is exploring everything from mild hybrids to full electric powertrains. JLR has filed paperwork to secure trademarks for I-Pace and E-Pace. "JLR is definitely rushing headfirst into electrification," said Ed Kim, vice president of industry analysis for research firm AutoPacific.
