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.

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!Pic 1

All of the Bond cars of 'No Time To Die' (caution for spoilers)

Thu, Sep 30 2021

Note: The following overview of the cars in No Time To Die contains spoilers. Read at your own risk, or come back after seeing the film to make sure you caught everything.   No Time To Die picks up right around where Spectre leaves us. James Bond (Daniel Craig) and Madeleine Swann (Lea Seydoux) are driving along in Bond’s restored and iconic DB5 in Matera, Italy. Things donÂ’t stay all that cheery for long in picturesque Matera, though. As is tradition in Bond films, the first car chase hits us with an explosion of action in what's a super-long opening scene. Fourth-gen Maserati Quattroporte: The baddies in the beginning are driving a Maserati and chasing after Bond in the DB5. Specifically, theyÂ’re in a fourth-gen Quattroporte, which feels right for a chase scene in Italy. Its squared-off looks are mean enough, and its Italian growl is a good background soundtrack to the DB5Â’s inline-six. In addition to the Quattroporte, the chase scene in Matera is home to a couple of the best stunts of the entire movie, including the arch jump done with a Triumph motorcycle seen in trailers — Matera is extremely hilly. Eventually, Bond and Swann find themselves in the DB5 again together, which is where the famous gatling gun scene from the trailer commences, but not before the bulletproof windows and body of the DB5 are thoroughly tested. RIP to the first-gen Range Rover Classics and Jaguar XFs that joined the Maserati in pursuit of Bond (here's a list of other Bond cars over the years). As the DB5 escape scene concludes, we catch a glimpse of what appears to be a Ferrari from the 1970s. However, the view was far enough away that weÂ’ll need a second look to be sure of the exact model. Land Rover Series III: Next time we see Bond, heÂ’s fishing in Jamaica and driving around a blue Land Rover Series III. ItÂ’s yet another of the many Land Rover products featured throughout the film, and unlike most of BondÂ’s Aston Martins, this one doesnÂ’t seem to have any unique features. The other intriguing vehicle out of Jamaica? An old Chevrolet Bel-Air expertly and effectively piloted by Bond newcomer, Ana de Armas. Next up, we get a few shots of the new and still-not-for-sale Aston Martin Valhalla mid-engine supercar (also seen in trailers). BondÂ’s old boss M is in the scene which appears to have been shot in some secret wind tunnel of sorts. Much to our dismay, nobody ends up driving the Valhalla in the film. Could it be a teaser for what the next 007Â’s car is?

Land Rover Defender V8 vs. Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 | V8 4x4s square off on paper

Thu, Feb 25 2021

Land Rover pulled the sheet off its 2022 Defender on Wednesday, introducing another high-performance V8 to the off-road segment. This time, it's a 5.0-liter, supercharged V8 boasting 518 horsepower. It will be available in both the Defender 90 and 110 models. In the former, Land Rover says it can crack off a 0-60 run in just 4.9 seconds on its way to a top speed of 149 mph. The long-wheelbase 110 will be a bit slower, but "slow" probably isn't the right adjective to use here at all.  But Land Rover isn't the only automaker offering a high-performance variant of its off-road SUV. While Jeep may have been sneered at for presenting the 2021 Wrangler Rubicon 392 on the heels of the 2021 Ford Bronco's introduction, it starts to make a lot more sense in this context. There's reportedly a high-output Bronco on the way, too, so call Jeep the dinosaur of the group all you want, but you can't put a price on being first. Well, you can, actually, but that's not the point.  Thankfully, both Land Rover and Jeep have provided enough specs for us to rough out a comparison chart. Since the Rubicon 392 is offered only in four-door guise, we're looking at the long-wheelbase Defender 110 as its direct competitor here. Have a look: There are a few caveats to mention off the top. For starters, we don't have an official curb weight for the V8-powered Defender yet, as Land Rover has not finalized its U.S. specs. We used the European figures (as provided by a spokesperson), which we expect to be accurate within about 50 pounds. The 0-60 time provided by Land Rover was for the Defender 90, which is smaller and somewhat lighter than the 110. When equipped with the inline-6, the Defender 110 is about a tenth of a second slower to 60 than the Defender 90, so we figure it should be roughly the same for the V8.  While the Defender has nearly 50 horsepower on the Wrangler, that advantage disappears thanks to the Land Rover V8's monster weight penalty, which will fall somewhere between 600 and 700 pounds depending on equipment. Yikes. On the flip side, however, the Land Rover has the edge in top speed, and it's not even close. Chalk that up to the tires, we suspect. We know for a fact that the Rubicon 392's all-terrains dictate its speed limiter; Jeep's own engineers told us as much. This could make for a (hypothetically) interesting drag race, as the Jeep's advantage off the line may evaporate once triple digits come into play.

Jaguar Land Rover Special Vehicle Operations could build standalone models

Sun, Mar 8 2015

Jaguar Land Rover may be set to turn its Special Vehicle Operations division into something much bigger than a mere in-house tuner. Bloomberg spoke to the head of JLR's high-performance, customization outfit, John Edwards, who hinted that his team may move beyond simply modifying F-Types, Range Rovers and the like. "We're certainly looking at that, and we've got the capability to do that," Edwards told AN. "Is there an opportunity for us to do a completely standalone car? Maybe." Such a move into full-scale, standalone models would be a big step, particularly for a division that's still kind of in its infancy. Bloomberg references the success of Mercedes-AMG, but the German division has had the benefit of decades of growth. AMG spent years and years building high-performance versions of all manner of mainstream Mercedes vehicles, before moving onto cars like the SLS AMG and AMG GT, which have no mainstream analog. In other words, AMG had a long time to develop a reputation building high-performance vehicles that people know and recognize before it moved into building vehicles of its own. We aren't entirely convinced that SpecOps wouldn't benefit from taking a similar approach, delivering additional SVR vehicles, like the rumored XE SVR, before striking out on its own. We'd like to know what you think, though. Is it already time for Special Vehicle Operations to build standalone models, or should it learn to walk before it runs by modifying more of Jaguar Land Rover's existing product.
