You've found it! A very sharp example of the SWB 3.9L EFI V8 County Classic Range Rover in Epsom Green with Lightstone leather upholstery and Walnut wood trim on door cappings and shift console. Built in 05/95 and still turning heads today. I've enjoyed owning this fantastic SUV and I know I will miss it when it's gone. It's lived in Sunny Southern California it's whole life so there is only light surface rust on the under carriage. The paint is in really good shape with the exception of the fading on the bonnet (hood). I would take it to the detail shop and keep it waxed every couple of months. A new detailer went crazy with the buffing machine on the hood and did a number to the clear coat. It's a good thing they stopped him before he kept going onto the rest of the body panels. I take all of my cars to this Car Wash and they usually do an amazing job so I didn't make a huge deal out of it. They gave me credit for 3 months of unlimited washes and I thought that was a fair deal. Over time it's gotten more noticeable as there is no heat insulation underneath the hood. The photos on this listing were taken just recently and it's hard to see in these pictures. I will take a close up of the hood and post it soon so you may see what I speak of. The EAS (electronic controlled air suspension) was replaced with a 2" lift coil spring suspension and Bilstein Shocks that allows the clearance for the oversized Yokohama tires and gives it (in my opinion) a perfect stance. It also has the Factory TWR (Tom Wilkenshaw Racing) 5 spoke wheels and front brush guard to complete it's rugged good looks. Moving on to the inside you will first notice the alcantara suede trimmed headliner done in dark charcoal (BMW M5) and works well with the contrast of the Lightstone Connolly leather seats and details upholstery. I take this Range Rover out and get complements from other drivers sitting next to me at the lights. When I pull up to valet parking at restaurants people are always asking what year it is because it looks so clean. It's not perfect but it's all there if you are looking for one that can be restored to a true show quality piece. I know that the Air tank for the EAS is still there as well as the Control module underneath the front passenger seat and the ride height sensors at each wheel should you want to go back to  Electronic controlled air suspension with 3 selectable modes and 2 automatic modes.  


As with any vehicle of this age you are going to have things that need attention. I have listed those items below. Please make sure you look over them carefully.  (((((( I SELL THIS VEHICLE AS-IS WITH NO WARRANTY EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED ))))))  Feel free to ask me any questions you may have regarding this Range Rover

Jaguar reportedly prepping fully electric F-Pace

Thu, Feb 19 2015

Tesla might want to take a look over its shoulder because there could be a cat catching its Model X in a few years. Jaguar reportedly has a fully electric vehicle under development that is possibly based on the upcoming F-Pace crossover, and it could be on sale in Europe as soon as 2018. Autocar cites anonymous "well-placed industry sources" as the foundation for the rumor and believes that Jag's future CUV would be the most likely recipient of the new powertrain. The battery electric technology would reportedly be shared with the brand's partners at Land Rover to keep costs down, and a range of around 300 miles would be the target. The F-Pace is reportedly already being prepped with a number of drivetrain options. JLR's latest 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder and supercharged 3.0-liter V6 are likely choices. However, a hybrid version is rumored, as well. JLR has been taking baby steps towards electrification for quite some time. Perhaps the biggest example was the introduction of the Range Rover Hybrid, but Land Rover has also been rumored to have an EV version of its flagship SUV under development too. The company already tested several electric Defenders, as well. From Jaguar's camp, the automaker recently trademarked the EV-Type name in the US and Europe, and its C-X75 concept had a very interesting hybrid system. The reason for all of this EV development from the Brit brands is to adhere to constricting emissions rules around the world, according to Autocar. The EU is moving to real world testing possibly as soon as 2017, and US regulators continue to work towards cleaning up the cars here, too.

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. Have your say in Comments. Related Video:

Brabus takes on Range Rover Sport with Startech widebody kit

Wed, 26 Feb 2014

Of all the tuners this side of AMG, none are as close to Mercedes-Benz as Brabus. After all, when Daimler needed a tuner to spruce up the Smart car, it was Brabus that it turned to. But Brabus tunes vehicles other than Mercedes - it just uses, let's call it, a pen name. It brands them Startech, like the widebody kit it's developed for the new Range Rover Sport and will present at the Geneva Motor Show next week.
The modifications center around the carbon fiber body panels Brabus (excuse us, Startech) has developed for the British sport-ute that give it over two inches of added width. The wider fender flares encompass 23-inch wheels that are forged, ceramic-coated, skinned with low-profile rubber and fitted to a lowered suspension. The front and rear bumpers have been redone in plastic and can be fitted with or without the wider fenders, and there's a three-piece roof spoiler at the back.
Startech is also offering an upgrade for the 3.0-liter twin-turbo-diesel V6 that squeezes out an extra 31 horsepower and 59 pound-feet of torque for a total of 323 hp and 501 lb-ft, dropping the 0-62 time from 7.2 seconds to 6.9. The German tuner also has a wide array of interior modifications on offer, details of which you can read about in the press release below and scope out in the high-resolution image gallery above.
