Nice 1998 P38 Land Rover Range Rover HSE 4.6 P38 with only @ 72K miles. This is still our "nanny-mobile" so the mileage will change from limited weekly use, but not dramatically. Overall, the body and interior are very nice, with some minor normal wear and tear for a vehicle of this age. It's nicely appointed, including leather interior, fog lights, factory roof rack, (with cheap aftermarket roof basket mounted to that). It runs strong, fires right up, and goes anywhere. That said, the low reserve reflects the fact that this P38 needs some minor reconditioning. While the brakes are strong, the ABS and Traction Control lights are currently on. I think it also needs the temperature control servos that control the internal vent flap positions in the HEVAC system to direct hot or cold air where it is wanted.  The stereo was working well, but recently stopped working, and I haven't looked into it. It might need a trip to a Rover mechanic to reset the computer. All power windows and sunroof work fine. Doors all open and close, but remote door lock fob does not open or lock all doors as it's supposed to. The title is a clean Wisconsin title, however it had a salvage title in Illinois in the past. I know nothing of the reason for the salvage: not sure if it was due to theft, or an accident, or? That said, I've owned the vehicle for years with no signs of collision related issues. There are no signs of past collision damage to the frame or body that I can see. Likewise with the prior owner: he also claimed no known issues related to the prior salvage title. As I said, the tile is now a clean Wisconsin title. Prior owner took the fog lights off, but I remounted them to the brush bar, but I have not reconnected them to the electric. What else can I tell you? Please do ask. Or come take it for a spin. If you don't know Range Rovers, they are amazing vehicles with spectacular off road capabilities. I've owned amazing 4x4's from reputable brands like Jeep, Chevy, International and Ford, and as much as I hate to admit it, the Rover blows them all away in the snow. For the right person, willing to do a little TLC, this is an awesome vehicle. Our daughter is starting full day school soon, and our nanny is off to New Jersey, so we're going to get rid of the Rover to make more room in the garage. Vehicle is located in central Chicago convenient to 94 and 290.

Jaguar-Land Rover builds millionth vehicle at Halewood

Fri, 29 Nov 2013

Jaguar-Land Rover is not what you'd call a volume automaker by any stretch of the imagination. But in the dozen years since it started manufacturing at its Halewood plant near Liverpool, England, the automaker has already built its millionth vehicle.
The landmark vehicle is a Range Rover Evoque, done up in white with red roof and mirrors, black wheels and a red and black interior. The crossover is set to be donated to Cancer Research UK, which will auction it off next year to help fund its projects in the north-west of the country.
Halewood started manufacturing the Jaguar X-Type in 2001, then went on to assemble the Land Rover LR2 / Freelander 2 before taking on production of the Evoque a year and a half ago. The facility reached the 300,000-unit milestone just last year as production moved to a 24-hour cycle for the first time in either marque's history.

Jaguar Land Rover remains bullish on diesels

Wed, Sep 30 2015

Despite Volkswagen's recent diesel scandal, Jaguar Land Rover is pushing ahead with ambitious plans to roll out the technology across most of its lineup in the coming years. Jaguar and Land Rover will add diesel engine variants to every model in their lineups, except for the Jaguar F-Type sports car. Land Rover launched the Range Rover and Range Rover Sport with available 3.0-liter turbocharged V6 diesels, and together they have sold more than 330 units so far in September, their first month on sale in the United States. JLA officials say they've seen no fallout from VW's emissions problem and are adamant their diesels meet EPA standards. "That has been our strategy, and it is not changing," Joe Eberhardt, Jaguar Land Rover North America CEO, told the Automotive Press Association on Wednesday in Detroit. "You have to deal with the situations as they arrive. We are confident of diesel." Jaguar will get another diesel next year from its Ingenium engine family, which will initially be sold in the XE sedan and the F-Pace crossover. It's a turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder unit and makes 180 horsepower and 317 pound-feet of torque. A JLR spokesman said the Ingenium has not yet gone through the EPA certification process, and the diesel-powered models will arrive in the fall. Jaguar also plans to add diesel engines to the flagship XJ and XF sedans. Land Rovers, including the Discovery and Evoque, will also get diesel options, and the company estimates the technology will offer 20- to 30-percent improvements in fuel economy, depending on the vehicle. Eberhardt said it is "too soon to tell" if the diesel market will be weighed down by Volkswagen's situation. The German automaker admitted to cheating on emissions tests to make its diesel-powered cars appear to run cleaner than they actually do in real-world situations. The ensuing outrage forced longtime VW chief executive Martin Winterkorn to step down and prompted a reorganization of the company, which faces legal and regulatory action around the world. Still, Eberhardt maintains JLR is "very confident" in its diesels, which are part of its strategy to grow sales around the world. Land Rover has experienced rapid growth under the ownership of Indian conglomerate, Tata Motors, while Jaguar is set to revitalize its lineup with new entries like the XE and F-Pace to reach a broader market segment.
