The Land Rover Range Rover HSE is the best 4x4xfar to get you around town, and to play in the country. This 2004 Range Rover is my third one, and I can't imagine NOT getting a 4th. It's currently based in the Texas Hill Country of Austin, and has made frequent trips to the lakes west of town.

When you're in a Range Rover like this one, you are just plain happy! It's a joy, even at the gas station, when invariably someone will come up and say, "I've always wanted a Range Rover. How do you like it?" I love it!

If you watch any TMZ-like program, you'll notice it's the main vehicle of Hollywood. Everybody just loves a Range Rover, and you just can't beat it for the vehicle that you'll love most, both on and off road. The vehicle's air suspension system can be controlled from the driver's seat, and includes a low setting to enter and exit the vehicle, as well as suspension heights for 4-wheeling, and highway and town driving.

This particular Range Rover's main bad part is this: 
I never purchased a navigational computer, which was missing when I bought it, because iPhones have better systems anyway. However, if you want to replace it, they are available on the Internet for several hundred dollars. Since the navigational screen is blank, you have to program the radio without seeing the station call letters. I listen to just a few radio stations, and the vehicle has rarely left Austin, so it hasn't been an issue, but you may like to spend the extra dollars after purchase to get that navigational computer installed (the small dealer I bought it from in Florida must have taken the computer out before I got the vehicle, and since it wasn't listed, I couldn't do much about it.) Bottom line is that the AM/FM radio/Casette/6-Disc Changer all work, but you can't see what you're listening to. And I think that computer is the only way to set the clock, so the clock isn't set (you could kill the battery, and bring the battery back on at the proper time). The only other little problem is that some of the numbers don't show up all the way in the dashboard, so it doesn't see the 100,000 digit yet (it shows 54K miles, but it's actually 154K miles.) When it hits 200,000, I'm sure you will see portions of the 2. I've included pictures so you can see the problem.

You'll see some wear and tear of an 8-year old vehicle, but as with most vehicles of this caliper, you'll notice that people take way better care of them than cheaper vehicles. The $72,950 Window Sticker is still in the manual packet. When you own a vehicle that was originally high-priced, the best thing you can do is try to find an independent garage that you can trust, and who will help you take care of the vehicle without thinking you're made of money to spare. Range Rovers are plentiful enough that most big cities have a Range Rover specialist that doesn't overcharge you to keep the vehicle in shape. This vehicle has been maintained by Phoenix Motorworks in Austin -- they know what they're doing, and are extremely fair to their customers. They were recommended by Ben's Workshop, the top local Mercedes repair specialist, and both shops have been incredible to work with. I'm sure you can find a local Range Rover enthusiast community to help you with maintaining this SUV.

Happy bidding, and please feel free to contact me with any additional questions or concerns.

Top 11 Lego Technic cars to buy on Amazon in 2024

Mon, Jan 22 2024

Autoblog may receive a share from purchases made via links on this page. Pricing and availability are subject to change. I recently got a birthday wish list from my 11-year-old nephew, and I couldn't help but smile when I saw “Lego Technic Cars” at the top. Lego isnÂ’t a phase, itÂ’s a lifestyle. Once a Lego fan, always a Lego fan. In fact, IÂ’d be willing to bet that many of you reading this right now have some kind of Lego vehicle in a box somewhere, or better yet, on display in your home. While theyÂ’re not necessarily cheap, getting into building Lego Technic vehicles doesnÂ’t have to bankrupt you, either, unless you go for the $400 Lamborghini right off the bat. Here are 11 of our favorite Lego Technic vehicles on Amazon, right now, ranging from an affordable $35 all the way up to $450. LEGO Technic Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Ages 9+ (544 Pieces) - $39.99 (20% off) One of my first and favorite model cars growing up was a first-gen Ford Mustang GT350, so this GT500 for under $40 is right up my alley. At 544 pieces and made for ages 9 and up, the GT500 is a considerable step up from Grave Digger but a great starter to a Technic collection nonetheless. It isnÂ’t the most accurate-looking vehicle in this list, but the AR app and the fact that it can drive make it a worthwhile purchase. $39.99 at Amazon LEGO Technic Formula E Porsche 99X Electric Ages 9+ (422 Pieces) - $49.99 Not a Ford fan? Not a problem. This Formula E Porsche 99X is the same price and better looking than the GT500. Even though there are 122 fewer pieces in this Porsche set, it has a level of detail seen in much more expensive Technic sets including numerous decals and a pull back motor.  $49.99 at Amazon LEGO Technic Jeep Wrangler Ages 9+ (665 Pieces) - $54.99 This is the set I ended up going with for my nephew, not because I think it is the coolest, but because for the price, I think you get the most bang for your buck. 665 pieces is over 50% more than the comparatively priced Porsche 99X and it also scratches the nostalgia itch for me: The first-ever model vehicle I built was a yellow Jeep Wrangler Sahara. This Wrangler Rubicon has definitely had some aftermarket mods like the front winch, which makes it one of the coolest Technic sets under $60.  $54.99 at Amazon LEGO Technic Monster Jam Grave Digger Ages 7+ (212 Pieces) - $34.16 If ever there was a gateway Lego Technic, this Grave Digger is it.

Jaguar Land Rover and Chery investing in Chinese plant

Sat, 24 Nov 2012

While the European auto market for Jaguar and Land Rover is waning, Chinese car buyers can't get enough of the British marques. To meet that demand, Tata Motors, parent company of Jag and Land Rover, is partnering with Chinese automaker Chery Automobile Co.
The two announced plans to invest $1.75 billion to build a new plant and create a new, China-focused brand. 2014 is the target for completion of the factory. Jaguars and Land Rovers built at the facility will be the first ever produced outside the UK according to the Associated Press. The JV will be called Chery Jaguar Land Rover Automotive Company Ltd.
The announcement comes less than a month after JLR announced it would open a design studio in China. It's not clear from the reports whether the two announcements are part of the same JV or two separate plans.

Jaguar Land Rover proposes seats that scientifically massage your butt, for your health

Thu, Jan 16 2020

Habitually sitting too long can degrade a person's health. Scientific research has proven that dormancy can increase the risk of obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, deep-vein thrombosis, and metabolic syndrome, according to the Harvard Medical School. Although sitting can be avoided in many cases, such as using a standing desk at work, taking a seat is the only option when hopping in the car for a drive. Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) is hoping to address this negative aspect of cars with a new high-tech seat that the company says mimics the act of walking.  JLR calls the concept a shape-shifting, or morphable, seat system, and it is currently in a trial period with Jaguar Land Rover’s Body Interiors Research division. Using actuators built into the seat's foam, the seat will constantly be in motion with micro-adjustments that can be tuned to the needs of different people and body types. JLR believes it has created a system that recreates what is known as pelvic oscillation, a motion that can supposedly trick the brain into thinking the body is walking. In addition to helping to prevent internal health issues, JLR also notes that a sedentary lifestyle can degrade and shorten muscles in the legs, hips, and rear. If these muscles are worked on a regular basis, the chance and risk of injury and back issues could potentially be reduced. The new seats are just one of many car interior technologies JLR has explored. In the past, we've seen tech that tracks brainwaves and heart rates, creates augmented reality, helps prevent motion sickness, and helps stop the spread of germs. They've also taken the time to have an expert demonstrate the perfect seating position. Most of this stuff is experimental for now, but it's possible similar features could eventually trickle down to production cars, in time. See how the seat moves in the video below. Related Video:   Â
