1993 Range Rover Classic County Lwb on 2040-cars
Orange, Connecticut, United States
This is a 1993 Range Rover Classic LWB that I've had for about 4 years, and driven it about 20k miles. It was shipped here to CT from Idaho, and has NO rust problems at all. MANY more photos available via e-mail. Some common chronic problems with this model are present: Headliner is sagging. Currently tacked up in places with common thumbtacks. Works great. ABS and TC light are on, and have been for a while. Both systems worked great for about a year after I got it, then the light came on. I have not determined which wheel sensor is causing it. Seat ECU has been un-plugged on the driver's side. Passenger side works. Seats were swapped in from a pristine '95 LWB, and the driver's seat and mirrors went haywire soon after (acting on their own as if possessed). I've read this is a corroded battery in the ECU under the seat. I jumped the driver's seat manually to adjust to my position, then left it there. Seat motor DOES work. Suspension swapped (by me) over to 2" OME springs and Bilsteins. Rides better than my '04 Grand Cherokee. Suspension air tank still in place. A/C compressor seized (bought it that way, never bothered to install a rebuilt one). Heater core replaced by the PO, heat COOKS. Ignition module re-located by me to the driver's side fender. STACKS of maintenance receipts from the PO. Does not have original stereo (came that way), but I installed a Dual head unit with integral iPod dock and Bluetooth, and wired in (2) moveable box speakers in the back. The upper cargo speakers are still in place and work, just not hooked up. The front door and A-pillar speakers still work. Sounds nice. Rear subwoofer box converted to a useable tool box. Spare removed from the rear to add cargo space. I do have a full-size (LT235/85r16) AT spare. Aside from the TC not working, and an occasional weird stalling that I haven't figured out (no pattern; stalls, then can be started within seconds and runs again just fine), thid truck is TIGHT. Does not drip a drop of oil. Mechanically, it's a daily driver as is, doesn't need brakes or exhaust or steering or ANYTHING. For sale locally, I reserve the right to end this ad at any time. |

Top Gear pits Hennessey VelociRaptor vs. Range Rover Sport SVR
Fri, Jun 5 2015As a television series, Top Gear is in limbo with an intent to return, but no hosts yet. However, it's magazine and website continue to bring us clips like this one. While the video might lack the show's charismatic hosts, this is an opportunity to see a drag race between a Land Rover Range Rover Sport SVR with 550 horsepower and a Hennessey VelociRaptor with 623 hp. The duel between these two supercharged V8s definitely sounds great. Both rugged models start at the line growling angrily at each other like dogs ready for a fight. You have to watch the clip to see whether the more powerful VelociRaptor feeds on the SVR, though.

Jaguar Land Rover gets to work on new university R&D center
Fri, Mar 20 2015Jaguar 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 SUV mule doing Ring testing in Evoque clothes
Mon, 28 Apr 2014Jaguar has moved its Range Rover Evoque-bodied tests of the production C-X17 Concept from icy streets to the legendary Nürburgring, as work continues on the brand's first SUV.
Really, there's not a great deal of new stuff here. Based on the number plates, this is a different vehicle from the one we saw back in March, which we originally identified as the upcoming replacement for the Land Rover Freelander/LR2. The details, though, appear largely the same. The biggest distinction we can see between the March tests and this are the US-spec headlights, which add amber reflectors at their sides. Based on these shots, it does seem as if the C-X17 should be a fairly poised road vehicle, as the engineers hustle it around the 'Ring.
Of course, as soon our spies can capture images of a production-bodied C-X17, we'll be sure to pass those on to you. Until then, take a look up top for images of the Range Rover-bodied Jaguar as it tests at Germany's Nürburgring. You can also scroll down for our March images for the C-X17 mules testing on public roads.
