1995 Land Rover Range Rover Classic County Lwb on 2040-cars

New Orleans, Louisiana, United States

This wonderful 1995 Range Rover Classic LWB has been my daily driver for the past 4+ years.  Its proven to be very reliable on long trips as I've driven it from New Jersey to New Orleans and back twice a year since owning it, without any issues.  I've been reassigned to San Diego and have decided not to take the Landy with me since I won't be needing a daily driver.

I've kept up with regular oil changes every 5,000 miles and I change the differential fluid every 10,000.  Around 123,000 miles the transmission fluid was drained and a new filter was installed as well as a new fuel and air filter.  Around that time the Rover was lifted 2" using Big Blue Springs and Pro Comp Shocks sourced from DAP.  The brake rotors, pads, two hubs, and bearings on all four wheels were also replaced.  The tires are BF Goodrich All terrain T/A KO with approximately  8,000 miles on them.  Less than 500 miles ago I replaced all the spark plugs, wires, cap, rotor, and ignition coil (bosch)  with genuine parts.  The viscous coupling unit in the transfer case was just replaced a month ago and the truck is turning like a dream now.  I had it overheat on me once while I was driving around Pensacola in August, so I replaced the viscous fan clutch and have not had any trouble since.  Other small thing which have been done are replacing the roto-flex coupling, all three u joints, new gaskets on the y pipe, a new starter motor, and four new mudflaps.  It has a new battery as of 2 weeks ago. The head gasket, serpentine belt, tensioner, and stepper motor were all replaced by the previous owner shortly before I bought the truck.

A while back the rear ring and pinion in the rear differential failed on me, just before I was planning on a longer trip.  Being pressed for time I decided to replace the entire differential with a used unit instead of rebuilding the old one.  The replacement has done just fine driving around, but the bearing in it whines and will have to be addressed at some point.  The power steering hoses leak slightly, I've tightened them before which temporarily stops the leak, but it always comes back.

The leather in the interior has held up very well over the years.  The headliner is sagging mostly in the rear of the vehicle.

The body has a couple of dings and dents in the sides and the hood, but is otherwise in pretty good shape.  The under body is clear of rust and the only problem is a bolt in panel behind the right rear wheel well (pictured).  The hood is the only part of the body showing rust and it has manifested as a few small holes.  The rear hatch must have been replaced at some point during the Rovers life because it shows absolutely no rust.

If you have any questions about the truck or would like pictures of something specific, please let me know and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.  If you'd like to ship the vehicle you'll have to arrange it yourself, but I'll be happy to assist with getting it on the flatbed.

Jaguar Land Rover details JustDrive connectivity suite

Tue, 18 Nov 2014



JustDrive will allegedly deliver on the long-promised idea of natural communication between driver and car.
Jaguar Land Rover's all-new InControl system is set to get a big bump as the British company will add a new service called JustDrive, which expands on the smartphone-focused infotainment system by adding a singular voice controller for a wide array of the system's currently available apps.

Jaguar Land Rover gives Lyft $25M and a fleet of cars

Mon, Jun 12 2017

Lyft recently raised $600 million in a massive funding round, and now we know that $25 million of that came from Jaguar Land Rover, via its mobility services subsidiary InMotion. The car maker's investment in Lyft goes beyond just funds, however; it's providing Lyft drivers with a fleet of Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles as part of the tie-up, and it's also going to work with the ride-hailing tech company on autonomous vehicle testing. This is yet another high-profile partner for Lyft after a spate of recent new collaborators, including Waymo and, just last week, Nutonomy. Now, Jaguar Land Rover is also joining the company's Open Platform for autonomous cars: The collaboration with InMotion will see the Jaguar Land Rover-owned company "develop and test its mobility services, including autonomous vehicles" using Lyft's platform. Lyft's ability to rapidly bring on a lot of partners in the car maker space, specifically around autonomy, may have a lot to do with rival Uber's ongoing problems, which now also include mounting calls for CEO Travis Kalanick to step back, at least temporarily, from his leadership role. Lyft has also been pretty clear about seeking to partner on autonomy, rather than pursue its own tech, which is likewise different from Uber's current approach. Uber, too, has brought automakers to the table around self-driving services and making use of its ride hailing platform for mobility service offerings. Both Uber and Lyft seem interested in being the layer that connects riders and these future services, and for automakers, it means leaving a complex and challenging part of the picture to partners with experience and expertise, rather than having to spin up that part of the tech business themselves. The fleet provision in the deal is also interesting, and suggests the partnership between the two could involve more strategic cooperative service offerings ahead of the advent of commercial self-driving tech. Lyft gaining more ground among automakers beyond longtime partner GM also explains why it was reported that the ride hailing company turned down overtures regarding a potential acquisition by the Detroit-based automaker.Written by Darrell Etherington for TechCrunch.Related Video:

These are the top luxury cars bought by people entering the segment for the first time

Fri, 25 Jul 2014

Let's say you just got a big promotion at work or the kids are moving out of the house, and you finally have some extra money. You decide to blow it all at once and treat yourself by upgrading your ride. Naturally, you look to a luxury automaker. What do you choose?
Models like the Audi A3 and Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class may be tailor-made to introduce buyers to the premium segment, but a new study finds that they don't garner the highest rates of non-luxury customer conquests. It turns out that a Volvo leads among folks moving up to a premium brand, and it isn't even one that's made anymore, at that.
A recent study by Polk and IHS Automotive looked at what models had the highest rates of buyers upgrading from a non-luxury segment. The information comes from its new vehicle registration data through April 2014. All ten top models boasted conquest rates of over 50 percent, but the Volvo C70 led the field with 68.01 percent of its customers coming from non-premium brands.
