2012 Land Rover Range Rover on 2040-cars
Graton, California, United States

The 2012 Range Rover Autobiography Ultimate Edition was a special edition produced at the end of the L322's
production run, with only 500 built worldwide of which 50 or less were for the U.S. market. I'm the second owner
of this Autobiography Ultimate, finished in Roussillon Red over Ivory and Dark Cherry semi-aniline leather
interior. It was originally registered in Kansas, and was then brought to California where I purchased it. My
Range Rover currently has under 29,900 miles (which may go up as I still use it occasionally), and drives just as
well as it did when new (granted, I didn't buy this one new, but this is my 5th of this generation and I've owned
every other one from new). This was a truly special Rover, with an original MSRP of $170,000!
Options and features include Autobiography Package: exterior design package, Rover Towing Prep, semi-aniline
leather seats, leather center console sides, lower dashboard, cubby lid, headliner and door panels, 1/2 wood and
leather steering wheel and gear knob, reclining heated and ventilated rear seats with winged headrests and front
seat control, LOGIC 7 1200-watt surround sound system, 4-zone climate control and glass, adaptive cruise control,
Ultimate Edition Package (dual, removable integrated rear seat iPad devices and headphones, individual business
seating for rear passengers with multi-position stowable business table, center console beverage chiller, glass
flutes with deployable holder, Oxford leather dash topper, seat side valances, front and rear console side trim,
door stowage pockets and loadspace trim, exclusive Kalahari wood trim detail on door, door top rolls, and front and
rear console and business tables, polished aluminum door switch surrounds unique Teak wood loadspace floor with
anti-slip inlay and polished stainless steel hardware, unique Ultimate Edition badge, unique 20" multi-spoke
diamond-turned alloy wheels, premium metal side vent finish, polished stainless steel lower tailgate finisher, body
color grille surround, illuminated treadplates, power deployable side steps, and more). This also has the
electronic rear locker. In addition, this vehicle is covered under remaining factory warranty until June of 2016
(I believe) or 50,000 miles, and can be extended with the dealer (probably ~$4k for a Land Rover factory warranty
that goes out another 4 years / 75k or 100k miles).
The exterior is in great condition, with very minor wear commensurate with the low miles. There is a small chip on
the windshield which happened in the last couple of months; however, the windshield was replaced late last year.
The leather is in great condition; there is however a small scuff on the steering wheel leather near the 11 o'clock
position. The rear loadspace shows some use (scuffs on the wood that can be cleaned up, a few marks on the leather
near the floor). Of course, the iPads and champagne flutes come with the vehicle.
I have added the factory crossbars (without the full rail system) and a Land Rover OEM ski rack, and also replaced
the tires with 265/50R20 Nitto Terra Grappler G2s (which are phenomenal in the snow. These tires have ~2000 miles
on them).

Top Gear pits Hennessey VelociRaptor vs. Range Rover Sport SVR
Fri, Jun 5 2015As a television series, Top Gear is in limbo with an intent to return, but no hosts yet. However, it's magazine and website continue to bring us clips like this one. While the video might lack the show's charismatic hosts, this is an opportunity to see a drag race between a Land Rover Range Rover Sport SVR with 550 horsepower and a Hennessey VelociRaptor with 623 hp. The duel between these two supercharged V8s definitely sounds great. Both rugged models start at the line growling angrily at each other like dogs ready for a fight. You have to watch the clip to see whether the more powerful VelociRaptor feeds on the SVR, though.

Top horsepower-per-dollar cars in 2017
Tue, Feb 17 2015Bang for the buck. That quasi-scientific statistic is bandied about by motor heads everywhere from classrooms to barrooms, though the truth of the matter is that it's exceedingly complex to measure. A fair performance-per-dollar index would include something like cross-referencing MSRP (Manufacturers Suggested Retail Price) with point-to-point times on a track or driving route, which is obviously hard to do comprehensively. But, for the sheer joy of talking about cars and playing with a big spreadsheet, there's always the horsepower-per-dollar index, which is more straightforward, albeit hilariously flawed. There are vagaries even with this simple formula, of course: MSRP for vehicles can change at a moment's notice, to say nothing of the bottom-line shifting that happens with local deals or showroom negotiation. For this list we're running with the straight MSRP wherever possible, and as recently reported as we can get it. All the vehicles on this list are 2017 models, and all trims are reported where the lowest price and differing power levels intersect. Some choices were made for personal preference and some for sanity, avoiding things like all 48 trim levels of the Ford Transit, all with the same horsepower). If this list were a simple top ten, or even a top fifty, you'd be bored to tears with all the red, white and blue that is represented. Following perfectly with conventional wisdom, American cars really do lead the world where hp/$ is concerned. So, for the sake of variety (and the sheer joy of seeing a minivan 'win' one round of this thing) I've sorted out some top five and bottom five lists for broad power categories. Let's dive in. Less Than 100 Horsepower Okay, okay, this is hardly a category we'll grant you. But we've often tried to click off all the sub-100-hp cars on sale in the US, and making this list gave us an excuse. It also illustrates that none of these smallish vehicles bring cheap horsepower to the table - for that you'll need a motorcycle. The segment-leading Chevy Spark (above) asks just over $139 for each hp, and that Smart Fortwo Electric Drive has hp on sale for about the same price as its very distant family cousin, the Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG (insert your favorite Smart joke here... we know you want to).
Jaguar Land Rover releases a vintage-looking infotainment system for classics
Fri, Sep 7 2018Jaguar and Land Rover have a new option for owners of its older vehicles: a touchscreen infotainment system. Much like the Porsche classic infotainment head unit released a few years ago, this one tries to blend in with its interior surroundings. Five distinct designs of these "Classic Infotainment Systems" are offered in an effort to have an option that fits well with the interior of any particular car offered by Jag or Land Rover over the past few decades. Chrome and black options are available for Jaguars, while brushed aluminum and black are the choices for Land Rovers. The infotainment system has navigation with 2D or 3D maps and Bluetooth audio. Sure, you don't need to stream Spotify in a 1970s Land Rover, but now you can. Jaguar says it'll offer much higher quality sound with a 4 x 45 watt output from the single DIN head unit, but you might need to upgrade those ancient speakers to actually take advantage of it. There's no mention of satellite radio like Porsche's unit offers, unfortunately. It is a radio though, so we get both AM and FM functionality. Jaguar says it's "compatible with negative earth vehicles" (newer vehicles use negative grounding systems) and retails for $1,796 before taxes in the U.S. You can buy and have it professionally fitted at an "authorized" Jaguar or Land Rover dealer if you'd like as well. It's easy to shake your fist at such a device for classic cars, but this head unit tried hard to be an elegant piece — we're still not sure about slotting it into an old E-Type though... Here are U.S. specific model fitments: Jaguar XJ40; XJS; XJ Series 3 Sedan Land Rover Defender 90, 110; Range Rover Classic (93-96); Discovery 1 (94-98); Freelander (97-04) Related Video: Featured Gallery Jaguar Land Rover Classic Infotainment System News Source: Jaguar Jaguar Land Rover Technology Infotainment
