 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.

I maintained this rig to be a fun trail truck, and the body has suffered dings and scratches as a result. The biggest is the left rear door, which has a BIG ding in it, but does not affect the door seal or door operation at all. I bought it this way from Idaho, and I don't even notice it anymore. Kind of adds character.

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.
 Please, serious inquiries only. This is a rock-solid driver that has no big unknowns to fix.

Jaguar Land Rover UK factories could shut down in two weeks due to coronavirus

Tue, Feb 18 2020

COVENTRY, England — Jaguar Land Rover has enough parts from China to maintain its British production for the next two weeks but not beyond that at the moment, Chief Executive Ralf Speth said on Tuesday. Britain's biggest carmaker, which operate three car factories in its home market, joined major global companies such as Apple in warning of the impact of the virus on supply chains. The rapidly spreading virus has killed nearly 1,900 in China and stricken some 72,000 people, confining millions to their homes, disrupting supply chains and delaying reopening of factories after the extended Lunar New Year holiday break. "We are safe for this week and we are safe for next week and in the third week we have... parts missing," said Speth when asking about the potential impact on British production. He said the firm's Chinese factory would open next week and was "safe for the very first week." Sales were not currently happening in China and it was unclear when they would return, he added. The boss of Tata Motors, JLR's parent company, speaking at the same event, said the company does not have sufficient visibility regarding parts suppliers from China. "We are safe for the month of February and for a good part of March," said Guenter Butschek. "Are we fully covered at this point of time for the full month of March? Unfortunately...not."

Jaguar likely moving HQ to Britain's most iconic racetrack

Fri, Feb 26 2016

Jaguar Land Rover looks increasingly likely to make Britain's iconic Silverstone race track the automaker's new headquarters. There isn't a final deal in place yet, but the British Racing Drivers' Club, which owns the circuit, plans to have the membership vote on whether the negotiations should move forward, according to Autosport. BRDC leaders already presented the plan to members, and they were open to the idea. "The response was favorable so we will now set up an EGM for the members to vote and give the board a mandate to proceed with the deal and continue with the negotiations with JLR," BRDC president Derek Warwick told Autosport. There's no guarantee yet that JLR actually completes the deal. "There's still a lot of work to do to get the deal to where both sides are happy and more importantly what's right for the BRDC and its members." Warwick said. Rumors in early December suggested JLR was among the firms submitting bids to purchase the track, and the automaker allegedly offered 22.7 million pounds ($34.1 million at the time) for it. The company would also reportedly invest nearly $80 million to renovate the site, including adding a museum, experience center, hotel, and offices. The track would still be open for motorsport, too. Silverstone has hosted the Formula One British Grand Prix many times over the decades, and organizers signed a 17-year deal in 2009 to keep things that way well into the future. Series like the FIA World Endurance Championship, MotoGP, and British Touring Car Championship also compete there. Related Video:
