This is a 1995 Land Rover Range Rover, soft dash round eye. It has the Brooklands-TRW package. If you Google that, you will find reference to the rarity of this option. More than 1 site says that only 7 of these were ordered in the USA. One site reports the following:

Only 7 in 1995, in the US. ordered with special Body Aero kit designed by Tom Walkenshaw Racing (TWR). The TWR body kit was first introduced back in 1991 on the European Brooklands model that was never sold in North America.

In February 1995 LRNA issued a press release that said: "The TWR kit adds a unique and attractive appearance to the classic Range Rover. The kit is specially fitted at the factory and is available on a limited number of Epsom Green and Beluga Black County Classics." 

I have owned this car since 2006 when I bought it from a fellow Arizonan that had it for 6 years prior to that. This car is my daily driver and has been very reliable. I believe it to be rare, but I really don't know its value, so my loss may be your gain.

This is a no reserve auction.

As you may know, Things do not rust much here. There is no rust, look closely at the photos. There is 1 dent on the passenger side, see pics.I highly recommend a trip out to personally test drive this car. There are more pics available, contact me.
 
Paint is
driver quality, but the top and hood areas are badly oxidized and the vehicle should be resprayed. There is a dent on the passenger side and some paint scratches and cracks. There are Pics of some of the flaws. Please look at the photos closely. I highly recommend that you come drive this car or have a proper inspection done by a trusted person. The scratches and such are visible in the Pics.. The odometer shows just over 178,000 miles. Doors are solid and close with the classic Rover thud. Please ask if you want more pics. Happy bidding!!

The pluses are:

Tires only have a few thousand miles on them. The spare is a nearly new Michelin studded tire, without the studs. I have never had it on the car.

New brakes, rotors and brakes lines.

The troublesome air suspension system has been replaced by coil spring suspension. She rides like a dream.

Fresh tune up with plugs, wires, distributor cap and rotor.

Ac works good.

4WD works good.

Transmission fluid and filter changed.

Battery less than a year old.

Nothing but Mobile one oil in engine since I have owned it.


I try very hard to describe the things that I sell, but you need to ask any and all questions prior to bidding. I have 100% PFB all the way back to 1998, so bid with confidence. This car is sold as is and where is, without warranty, expressed or implied. I try to be very honest and describe my items as accurately as possible. Your bid is your word so please act accordingly. I will assist with shipping the car, at buyers expense. I have already shipped a car to Paris France and another to London, England, so I have some experience

International bidders welcome!!!

Happy Bidding!!!

Car is for sale locally and I reserve right to end action early if it sells.

Jaguar Heritage to auction off part of its classic-car collection

Mon, Feb 19 2018

A few years back it was reported that Jaguar Land Rover had purchased the James Hull classic car collection in its entirety. The collection is beyond significant, as it was at the time of sale the biggest single collection of British cars in the world and the largest private car collection in the UK. Consisting of 543 cars, it ranged from the mundane to the obscure, including some extremely rare prototypes. There were 130 Jaguars, for example, from the C-type to the D-type to the XKSS. When the cars were put up for sale in 2014, the asking price was a not-insubstantial $170 million. JLR didn't reveal how much it spent to buy the cars, but now it seems the carmaker is about to recoup some of those costs. At least 50 cars from the collection will be sold by auction house Brightwells, as part of the Affordable Classics at Bicester sale on March 21; some reports have said JLR would be eventually offloading as many as 100 cars. Looking at the listing, there are some definite gems in there. Not all cars are British, as there are Citroens, Mercedes-Benzes, a Fiat and a Goggomobil. Jaguars and Land Rovers are notably absent from Brightwells' listing, which we take as a clue that the sale will consist of cars not crucial to JLR's wellbeing and heritage. That said, for a lover of British cars there's a possibility to grab something truly interesting: For example, the Reliant Scimitar Ferguson 4x4 Prototype must be worth preserving. A 4WD pioneer also known for Massey-Ferguson tractors, Ferguson fitted its system in Jensens as well as a prototype 4WD Mustang in the 1960s. The fiberglass-bodied Reliant sports car is an interesting sidenote in Ferguson's history. Then there's a Vauxhall Chevette 2300 HS, which is a veritable rally-bred RWD hot hatch in comparison to the American market Chevrolet Chevette, its distant relative. On the hot hatch front, there are also Metro and Maestro turbos, which offer plenty of poke in a light, boxy body. Or if you view the internet's popular "Worst Cars Ever Made" lists as shopping lists, you could build your own collection of slightly dodgy cars: Start with the unfortunate-looking Vanden Plas Allegro, continue to the malaise-tastic Morris Ital Camper, and finish it off with a late-model Lada Riva wagon from the mid-1990s. Some cars are in tip-top shape, and some are best seen as restoration projects, like the very pretty Borgward Isabella coupe from 1960.

Jaguar Land Rover calls in handful of vehicles over suspension bolts

Thu, 24 Apr 2014

With most recalls seemingly affecting mass-market vehicles, it'd be all too easy to assume, consciously or otherwise, that higher-end automobiles never face such issues. But the main reason we don't see the NHTSA recalling more luxury automobiles isn't because of their quality, we'd postulate: it's because of their relative scarcity.
Take Jaguar Land Rover, recalls of whose vehicles we only seem to have cause to report about once a year. So if you're figuring they're about due, here you go. The Indian-owned British auto group has just announced two recalls, both regarding suspension components: one affecting Jaguars and another concerning - you guessed it - Land Rovers.
First up we have a recall for 2013 to 2014 model year Jaguar XJ, XF and XK models - a whopping 297 of them - which have been found to have problematic toe links. Separation of the toe link from the rear sub-frame could result in impaired stability and control over the vehicle's direction, so JLR is calling them in to replace the nuts and washers on the rear toe links.

We compare 2021 Ford Bronco and Bronco Sport specifications to their ritzy Land Rover competiton

Tue, Jul 14 2020

The 2021 Bronco and Bronco Sport are the spearheads for Ford's new 4x4 sub-brand, with the former taking the fight directly to the Jeep Wrangler and the latter providing Ford with a more rugged alternative to the Escape. We've already looked at how the new Bronco and Bronco Sport compare to their mainstream competition, but we'd like to see how the Bronco stacks up to another hotly anticipated returning nameplate: the Land Rover Defender.  Not to leave its little sibling in the cold, I decided to browse Land Rover's lineup and see what might be a suitable counterpoint to the Bronco Sport. For better or worse, I found an almost-perfect fit in the Range Rover Evoque. So, how do these new American 4x4s compare to the Old Country's more-expensive alternatives? Let's dig in, starting with the big boys.  As you might expect from the Bronco's robust credentials, it holds its own here against the more-expensive Brit. The Defender's higher price point brings along a good bit of power advantage with both engines, but that's to be expected. The Defender also has that trick adjustable-height suspension that the Bronco lacks, giving it an edge in practicality, and it can also tow quite a bit more.  On the flip side, there are quite a few advantages to going with the Ford, including a greater number of choices in terms of powertrain. The available manual transmission on four-cylinder Broncos is a nice bonus, for instance, as is the option of getting either the base 2.3-liter or the optional 2.7-liter engine with either wheelbase. The Defender is a bit more restrictive in this regard offering only the inline-six on the short-wheelbase model. As an added bonus, the Bronco is a convertible. That may not necessarily be a "plus" for all shoppers, but it's certainly an added bit of versatility (and potential appeal) the Defender lacks. And of course, the Bronco can be had for as little as $30,000, whereas the Land Rover starts at $50,000. Now, on to the less-rugged siblings. The specs here are actually a little tighter in most respects, but the powertrain story is almost identical. The Evoque checks in where the Bronco Sport tops out, and the Range Rover gets an optional high-output variant of the 2.0-liter turbocharged four.
