1995 Land Rover Range Rover County Classic Sport Utility 4-door 3.9l on 2040-cars
Collierville, Tennessee, United States
I drove this car as my daily driver back and forth to work. It has always been reliable. The car handles well, has a great Pioneer stereo, and has been reliable, safe transportation. I drove the car from Memphis to Nashville and back a few of weeks ago, and I still love driving it.
However, the car doesn't really fit my needs anymore in that I really need a car that has more seating capacity (I have 4 kids). Also, I just don't get to go off road that much anymore.
But if you are a Land Rover or 4x4 enthusiast, or you just want a big car that looks and runs great, check this one out. The car weighs around 4500 pounds, and has that thick, safe feel.
The trouble-prone air suspension system has removed and replaced with a standard coil-in-spring system. I also had a new water pump and thermostat, new alternator, Mallory ignition system, replaced the hoses from the power steering pump. The tires are in good shape. The car starts every morning, the transmission shifts smoothly, and the transfer case works fine as well. The cruise control does not engage.The air conditioner does not work (needs a new compressor).The power windows work, as well as the sunroof.The heater works. All of the lights work except one right side driving light. This car has never been owned by a smoker.
There are no rust issues. There is paint oxidation on the hood and roof, but no rust.
The headliner fabric is tight. There are, however some cracked interior plastic trim pieces, but over all nice. The glass sunroof is flawless and does not leak.
The seat warmers also don't work. I'm not sure if they were inoperative when I received the car, but they don't get hot. But since the car has been garaged every day, and it doesn't get that cold here in Memphis, it hasn't been a problem.
The driver seat power works in every direction except recline. It worked when I got it, but at some point stopped. The passenger seat reclines/adjusts and is very comfortable.
The 6-CD cassette player that came originally is no longer there. I replaced the factory cassette stereo with an after market Pioneer that has aux. and USB port and will charge your phone. I also replaced the front door speakers and the rear speakers with Pioneer, as well.
Occasionally, the Anti-Lock warning lamp and the Traction Control warning lamp illuminate. However, I have never noticed any change in the performance.
The speedometer and dash cluster functions as it should. The fuel gauge works, too.
There are no oils leaks. I have noticed a little fluid near the power steering pump, but nothing drastic and the reservoir is not low. It's par for the course for these older Range Rovers.
The SRS (air-bag) lamp is illuminated. The car has not been in any sort of accident or other event that might cause the airbag to deploy. I have heard that the air-bag sensors just get a little corroded, and the controller is probably picking up a little extra resistance across that sensor. This is a dealer-only item, and I just haven't gotten around to going up to the Land Rover dealer in Memphis to have the troubleshooting done and, potentially, new sensors installed.
The car comes with the original owner's manual along with manuals for the stereo.

Jaguar Land Rover Special Vehicle Operations could build standalone models
Sun, Mar 8 2015Jaguar 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.

Jaguar Land Rover CEO: Wrong Brexit deal will cost thousands of UK jobs
Tue, Sep 11 2018BIRMINGHAM, England — The wrong Brexit deal could cost tens of thousands of jobs, the boss of Britain's biggest carmaker Jaguar Land Rover warned on Tuesday, saying he had no idea whether his plants would be able to operate after Britain leaves the European Union next year. Ralf Speth also said that the company would not be able to build cars if customs checks meant that the motorway to and from the southern English port of Dover, which is used to transport components, becomes a "car park" due to snarl-ups of people no longer able to move freely among EU countries. Speth made the warning at a conference in Birmingham, central England, speaking shortly before Prime Minister Theresa May, who is battling to have her so-called Chequers Brexit plan accepted by many in her Conservative Party as well as the EU ahead of Britain's departure from the bloc on March 29. "A thousand (jobs were) lost as a result of diesel policy, and those numbers will be counted in the tens of thousands if we do not get the right Brexit deal," warned Speth, referring to redundancies made earlier this year at the firm. "Currently I do not even know if any of our manufacturing facilities in the UK will be able to function on the 30th," he said. The boss of JLR, which built nearly a third of Britain's cars last year, also said long-standing issues around low productivity in Britain could be compounded by a Brexit agreement which made the country less competitive. "It is thousands of pounds cheaper to produce vehicles for instance in Eastern Europe than in Solihull, and what decisions will I be forced to make if Brexit means not merely that costs go up but that we cannot physically build cars on time and on budget in the UK?" he said.Reporting by Costas Pitas
Jaguar Land Rover and Cambridge have developed a touchless touchscreen
Thu, Jul 23 2020Jaguar Land Rover and the University of Cambridge are working on new touchscreen technology that eliminates the need to touch the screen. Counterintuitive, right? It’s called “predictive touch” for now, in part because the system is able to predict what you might be aiming for on the screen. The video at the top of this post is the best way to understand how users will interact with the tech, but weÂ’ll do some more explaining here. You simply reach out with your finger pointing toward the item on screen that you want to select. ItÂ’ll highlight the item and then select it. HereÂ’s how it works, according to the University of Cambridge: “The technology uses machine intelligence to determine the item the user intends to select on the screen early in the pointing task, speeding up the interaction. It uses a gesture tracker, including vision-based or radio frequency-based sensors, which are increasingly common in consumer electronics; contextual information such as user profile, interface design, environmental conditions; and data available from other sensors, such as an eye-gaze tracker, to infer the userÂ’s intent in real time.” Cambridge claims that lab tests showed a 50 percent reduction in both effort and time by the driver in using the screen, which would theoretically translate to more time looking at the road and less time jabbing away at the screen. If the prediction and machine learning tech is good enough, we could see this resulting in a reduced number of accidental inputs. However, on a certain level it almost sounds more difficult to point at a screen while moving than it does to actually touch a section of that screen. Without using the tech and its supposedly great predictive abilities, we canÂ’t come to any grand conclusions. One comparison you may already be thinking of is BMWÂ’s Gesture Controls. ItÂ’s already been addressed with a subtle diss from Cambridge: “Our technology has numerous advantages over more basic mid-air interaction techniques or conventional gesture recognition, because it supports intuitive interactions with legacy interface designs and doesnÂ’t require any learning on the part of the user,” said Dr Bashar Ahmad of the University of Cambridge. Of course, this tech can be used for much more than just vehicle touchscreen control. Cambridge says it could be integrated into ATMs, airport check-in kiosks, grocery store self checkouts and more.
