1995 Range Rover County LWB Overview: The wait is over! Many of you have asked and I am finally pleased to deliver this 1995 LWB in stunning Alpine White on Bahama Beige. This vehicle comes to me from a long-time client in San Diego. It was primarily used as their summer family vehicle when out here for the season from Arizona. It has been meticulously maintained over the years and what I have to present now is the result of exhaustive maintenance. Whatever your intention is for this ONE YEAR ONLY vintage, it will be sure to serve you for many enjoyable years to come. Service History: As a Land Rover Master Tech, reliability is my first objective… ALWAYS. The following is an exhaustive list of service points done previously by the owner as well as the most recently done with me. The list covers all critical areas for the vintage. Here are the highlights:
Operation and Aesthetics: For many, the 95 LWB is the crowning achievement to the Range Rover Classic line. It has all of the upgrades and refinements of 25 years worth of development and yet, in true Range Rover form, it embraces new innovation and design while exhibiting all of its heritage in one coherent work. This vehicle is a PROUD representative of that lineage with its full service profile and alluring cosmetic integrity. This vehicle fires right up and the fully serviced 4.2L V8 roars to life. It idles perfectly and with a slight step on the accelerator you are off in a flash. This truck surges onto the motorways with TOTAL CONFIDENCE with no hesitation, rattles, or wanderings of any kind. The Old Man Emu Springs provide an extremely plush ride while the Bilstien Shock Absorbers unleash the European sport-touring nature of the Range Rover via crisp and decisive handling. The transmission is smooth with no winding and the shift quality is excellent in all gear ranges. All power options work as they should, seats, windows, mirrors, lights, sunroof, safety MFCU’s, and all. The AC works brilliantly and the heat is perfect without any offending coolant smells inside the cabin. That said, this is also A NON SMOKER VEHICLE and with its recent upholstery renewals and professional detail, she still smells like a new car. This vehicle is a blast to drive for many reasons. It performs as you would expect from a vehicle of this caliber and all of the distinctive features of this one year only model are in excellent condition. Its an interesting point to make here: The Range Rovers have ALWAYS influenced the rest of the Land Rover Line. For example, the ladder chassis and suspension would eventually become the platform for the discovery. In 2003 – with the launch of the MKIII Full Size Range Rover – Discovery 2’s were still on the showroom floor. The 03/04 D2’s were given the same aggressive headlamp style that can be found on Range Rovers even to this day. But to my original point: The 95 RRC’s were truly special because for the 1st and ONLY time in its history, the Range Rover received styling inspiration from the Land Rover Discovery. Known as the “Soft-Dash,” The impressive in cabin appearance owes much to the Discovery’s own Soft-Dash design as it too was introduced at that time with the Range Rover. Additionally, it is the ONLY RANGE ROVER CLASSIC to offer driver and passenger SRS airbags. Lastly and perhaps most interestingly, this year the company transformed from “Range Rover of North America,” as it was known up until that moment, into “Land Rover of North America.” 1995 was a milestone in Range Rover history and will always serve as an investment point for collectors. Body, Chassis & Coachwork: Overall this vehicle is a total pleasure to look at. The TRW wheels offered in 1995 are in excellent shape and add to this trucks impressive appearance. The legendary Soft-Dash is in equally tidy shape with no gouges, rips or curl. The chrome appointments are in pristine order and even the front bumpers push-pads are intact (they are almost always missing). The rugs and mats are clean and soft as is the original leather. The front seats are in astonishingly good condition and display what happens to quality materials when cared for appropriately. Note the highlighted pictures of the door sills, upper tailgate corner, hinges and jambs. These are all critical areas for corrosion on the Range Rover Classics and they are present here in near perfect condition. The vehicle is proudly drip free and you should consider it nice driveway safe! The paint is touchably smooth and as pictured, polishes up great. Like most older Californians who have spent a life in the sun, you will see expected wear and tear for the age but as this truck is still all original without any cosmetic surgery, she can still wow the camera and the fans at red carpet appearances! To recap, this is a straight, original, rot free, clean and comfortable Range Rover that you would be otherwise proud to own. A Word on EAS: Air suspension. Perhaps the most widely debated topic in Range Rover history. Some love it. Some hate it. Some vouch for reliability. Some curse its introduction to an already amazing suspension system. Personally, I love it. The purist in me enjoys the feature when working correctly. Simultaneously, Coil Springs and NOT EAS was original to the Classic. And I love it too. So what to do with this truck? It has the TOP OF THE LINE Coil Spring and Shock replacement parts on it and the ride quality is amazing. I have personally evaluated the EAS system and it is intact and functional. All you would need to do to restore the EAS system is fit a set of air coils all the way around. So why haven’t I? The vast majority of you have asked for a 95 LWB with coil springs… and here it is with the best available. I personally do not see the hurry to run back to EAS just for arguments sake. The system is operational and ready to be retro fit if/when you decide necessary. For this vehicle, I do feel that she is perfect just the way she is. Purchasing, Perspective & Why Buy From Me: No one puts a Range Rover Classic together better than me, PERIOD. It’s the vehicle I drive, and the vehicle I RACE. Nearly two decades of Classic ownership and service are poured into every Classic (and every Rover) that I see into new hands. All too common are sales from the brokerage houses where a vehicle will receive a detail service and nothing else. Leaving maintenance work for the pleasure of the new owner; often time’s immediately following reception of the vehicle. Beware of any Classic that does not share the same service points as the ones I advertise with my trucks. They are ESSENTIAL for long term reliability and any Classic without these services are ticking time bombs. I am not a Land Rover tech that drives home in a Honda Civic. I come from a long line of British Car technicians and Live, Breathe and even RACE the green oval. I understand ALL of your concerns and needs and do my best to ensure that you will be happy based on a simple, yet powerful concept: DOES THIS VEHICLE MAKE ME HAPPY? WOULD I PUT MY WIFE AND BABY IN IT? WOULD I LOVE TO HAVE IT? The answer is always yes. And that’s when I know they are ready. I care. I know you do, too. Vehicles that I see off not only have domestic endpoints, they go to the farthest reaches of the planet. They have gone to Europe, Asia, The South Pacific, Central America and currently, a client recently purchased a trail-ready 88 RRC and is en route to Tierra Del Fuego after I picked him up in the vehicle at LAX when he flew in to receive it! The point here is, I believe in each and every vehicle that I usher in to new ownership. Please see my recent vehicle sales and I’m sure you’ll be impressed. While these vehicles are all totally looked after, they are not immune to future service needs and flaws. They are used vehicles and normal flaws and wear should be expected as the vast majority of them are pushing 20+ years old. I invite you to ask ANY AND ALL QUESTIONS NOW! There are no queries too obscure; your satisfaction is the goal here. Additionally, eBay offers a 3rd party inspection service to verify ALL of your acquisition needs IN PERSON. Purchase of the vehicle = SATISFACTION. Once this auction is over, the winning bid and purchase imply that satisfaction has been achieved and will be understood as such. There are no warranties offered here, but that said, there is always an unspoken “hand-shake” warranty meaning that should something fail within a reasonable amount of time – say a hose, a coilpack, a distributor, blower motors, an alternator, a switch, etc – I will be happy to send you what I have available at that time. This is a NO RESERVE AUCTION so you are bidding to win! Please make sure that you bid ONLY what you are prepared to pay. This means, when the auction is over, and the winning bid is placed, this becomes THE SALE PRICE of the vehicle. Under no circumstances does it open the door to negotiate or back out of your commitment. The people bidding for this vehicle actually want it. Do not spoil their chances at ownership by arm-chair bidding. Yes, everyone joins eBay at some point, and there is no prejudice against lower transaction numbers here – HOWEVER – if I suspect and/or become aware of any insincerity on the part of said bidder, I reserve the right to cancel all bids from and block that insincere bidder from this auction. Completion of this transaction is fairly straight forward. Once the auction is over, I will be contacting the winner immediately and we can discuss the easiest way to finalize the transition. Finally, people always ask me who I think a particular vehicle is for. This truck has potential for so many… It’s the ideal candidate for someone who has been looking for their first taste of a 95. Its clean, functional, reliable, and gorgeous. It can make an excellent daily driver. A first car. A summer guest vehicle. A build platform for an overland luxury concept truck. The 95’s were distinctive all the way. And if you are looking for 95’s only, then no doubt you have a specific need. Whatever it may be, this vehicle is up to the task and will make its new owner proud. Summer time is coming – and this vehicle is ready to be an essential component to your itinerary… whatever and wherever that may be! Best of luck and Happy Rovering! |

Autoblog's Editors' Picks: Our complete list of the best new vehicles
Mon, May 13 2024It's not easy to earn an “EditorsÂ’ Picks” at Autoblog as part of the rating and review process that every new vehicle goes through. Our editors have been at it a long time, which means weÂ’ve driven and reviewed virtually every new car you can go buy on the dealer lot. There are disagreements, of course, and all vehicles have their strengths and weaknesses, but this list features what we think are the best new vehicles chosen by Autoblog editors. We started this formal review process back in 2018, so there's quite of few of them now. So what does it mean to be an EditorsÂ’ Pick? In short, it means itÂ’s a car that we can highly recommend purchasing. There may be one, multiple, or even zero vehicles in any given segment that we give the green light to. What really matters is that itÂ’s a vehicle that weÂ’d tell a friend or family member to go buy if theyÂ’re considering it, because itÂ’s a very good car. The best way to use this list is is with the navigation links below. Click on a segment, and you'll quickly arrive at the top rated pickup truck or SUV, for example. Use the back button to return to these links and search in another segment, like sedans. If youÂ’ve been keeping up with our monthly series of the latest vehicles to earn EditorsÂ’ Pick status, youÂ’re likely going to be familiar with this list already. If not, welcome to the complete list that weÂ’ll be keeping updated as vehicles enter (and others perhaps exit) the good graces of our editorial team. We rate a new car — giving it a numerical score out of 10 — every time thereÂ’s a significant refresh or if it happens to be an all-new model. Any given vehicle may be impressive on a first drive, but we wait until itÂ’s in the hands of our editors to put it through the same type of testing as every other vehicle that rolls through our test fleet before giving it the EditorsÂ’ Pick badge. This ensures consistency and allows more voices to be heard on each individual model. And just so you donÂ’t think weÂ’ve skipped trims or variants of a model, we hand out the EditorsÂ’ Pick based on the overarching model to keep things consistent. So, when you read that the 3 Series is an EditorsÂ’ Pick, yes, that includes the 330i to the M3 and all the variants in between. If thereÂ’s a particular version of that car we vehemently disagree with, we make sure to call that out.
Land Rover planning SVX hardcore off-roaders
Sun, May 3 2015The new Special Vehicle Operations division at Jaguar Land Rover has already given us an array of ultimate wheeled creations, but it isn't quite done yet. Next, according to Car and Driver, will be a new line of SVX models. Not to be confused with the Subaru coupe from the 1990s (which also had all-wheel drive, come to think of it), Land Rover's SVX models will be hardcore off-roaders. Details are few and far between at the moment, but they're said to take inspiration from rough-terrain events like the Dakar Rally and Camel Trophy as inspiration – different from the Ford F-150 Raptor that takes its cues from the Baja 1000. Last we heard, Land Rover was planning a hardcore Defender to send the model off to pasture in high-performance style, and considering an extreme Range Rover as well. If either of those rumors materialize, they look like they'd be prime candidates for the SVX line. JLR Special Vehicle Operations has already showcased what it can do with the high-performance Range Rover Sport SVR, the luxed-up Range Rover SVAutobiography, the exclusive F-Type Project 7 and the continuation classic Lightweight E-Type. C/D confirms that further SVR models are in store to replace Jaguar's R-S performance models, while the SVX line would likely remain exclusive to Land Rover.
Environmental group accuses BMW, JLR of link to deforestation in Paraguay
Wed, Sep 30 2020ASUNCION, Paraguay — Environmental group Earthsight said on Wednesday it has linked some of Europe's largest carmakers to the deforestation of the Chaco, a dry forest region of Paraguay home to jaguars and one of the last uncontacted indigenous groups in the world. The group said in a report that livestock companies have illegally logged lands of the Ayoreo Totobiegosode indigenous ethnic group, some of whose members live in voluntary isolation. The livestock skin is used in leather upholstery of luxury vehicles sold by high-end European auto brands including BMW, Jaguar and Land Rover, the group said. UK-based Earthsight said it had made covert visits to tanneries that bragged about supplying the raw material to the luxury car brands. "BMW is using hides sourced from two slaughterhouses processing cows from ranches responsible for illegal [logging] in the Ayoreo Totobiegosode's forests. Jaguar Land Rover didn't dispute sourcing from a Paraguayan tannery that processes hides from another slaughterhouse doing the same," the report said. Jaguar Land Rover said in a statement to Reuters it had found no evidence to verify Earthsight's claims. It said its European suppliers assured sustainability. "We continue our drive for further transparency and, in this case, the leather supplier in Europe verifies with each raw material supplier that no rural property that directly supplies it is involved in illegal deforestation," the automaker said. BMW did not respond to a request for comment on the Earthsight investigation. Paraguay exports about 50,000 tons of wet-blue leather (tanned, but not dried, dyed or finished) a year, and almost two-thirds of those shipments are bound for Europe, according to the report. Automakers say that leather is a byproduct of the far larger meat industry and high-end cars constitute a comparatively small market niche. But indigenous leaders say deforestation driven by growth in beef and leather exports is encroaching on their territory and destroying their way of life. "As deforestation advances with extensive cattle ranching, they are being imprisoned, they are disappearing," Taguide Picanerai, a spokesman for the Ayoreo community in the Alto Paraguay department, northwest of Asuncion, told Reuters. The region is home to some of the world's highest rates of deforestation, Earthsight said.  Green BMW Jaguar Land Rover
