Solid 1991 Range Rover County Short Wheel base. This is a fairly rare, original GREAT DIVIDE EDITION. It is correctly titled and badged as an original GD, #175. There were 409 of these made in 1990, and all were sold as 1991 models ( there is extensive history on the GDs available). There are reportedly less than 200 left according to the LR registry. This GD has been a California RRC all of its life, and as such, the aluminum panels, roof, doors and undercarriage are rust free and solid throughout, making it a perfect candidate for a mild restoration or drive it as it is.
This is a fairly rare, one-year-only model of the GD in the US. I had no intention of selling it, but a sudden job-relocation makes this improbable. Reluctantly, I am posting it for sale here to find it a good Rover home.
This GD comes fully-equipped with the County package ( all Power accessories work, including all four windows, both power seats, hard sunroof and central locking), with the original stock 3.9L V8 engine, heavy-duty suspension revised with OldMan 2" lift set up, EMU springs and struts, Updated front suspension, correct GD optional wheels, original early Land Rover all-metal sidesteps, factory tow package and roof bars. It has 213K original miles, and it runs well.
The automatic transmission shifts well into all forward and reverse gears. There is NO slippage or grinding of gears. No rearend, axle or bearing noises. The 4x4 system works well into both L and H gearing.
The 3.9L engine received a top-end overhaul about 2 yrs ago. It is tight and not a leaky mess like most. It is completely original, without any modifications from stock, except for an alternator shield and auxiliary PIAA light-back up system pod. The car has had a remanufactured BOSCH alternator replaced, along with a starter, as well as a Beck-Arnley water pump, ABS module and brake pump. Brakes are about 70%. This GD has stock-size radials with fair tread ( about 60% left), mounted on the factory GD alloy wheels. NO front-end vibrations, wobbling or pulling.
The body is in EXCELLENT condition, with absolutely NO rust whatsoever, anywhere in, under or around the car. The body is completely 100% RUST-FREE, as any clean, California car should always be. The original factory finish has held up remarkably well, with no flaking of the clearcoat anywhere, or fading to the roofline, hood or filler front panel. The original Alpine white still retains a beautiful shine despite the passing of years, evident that it has been regularly garaged. It would probably clean up even better with a good polishing.
The interior upholstery is in better than average condition, except the bottoms of both front seats which are in need of reupholstering ( I have an estimate to re-do them both for $300). There are NO cracks, splits, tears or separation of the seams in ay of the remaining seats, and they are all the perforated upholstery, unique to the GREAT DIVIDE models only. The rest of the upholstery, including the other seats and all door panels are in very good shape, clean and with no damage. The factory carpeting is clean, and I had it recently professionally shampooed, along with the trunk carpeting, which is also clean.
Overall, it is a very solid, original Range Rover, and a hard-to-find GD in its fairly original configuration. It has NEVER been in an accident, off-roaded, abused or wrecked. I have listed the car to sell, with a ridiculous $1 opening bid. That being said, I have advertised it in various other venues, and am open to a reasonable, FAIR offer.
To those that like to play games and bid $5 at the time, this is NOT going to be the car for you. To the serious, potential interested bidders, I welcome your bid and any questions you may have concerning the GD. I reserve the right to end this auction early at any time, should a serious offer present itself, so bid early and bid often~!
Upon end of the auction, I would like to receive payment within three business days. PLEASE ensure that your source of funds is in place and sorted out before placing a bid, in order to make timely payment.
If that means asking your significant other, checking with your boss that you are not getting transferred to Saudi Arabia or checking any significant tornado patterns landing in your home state, PLEASE do so prior to placing a bid and prior to the end of the auction.
Upon receipt of payment, I shall immediately mail you the CA title and bill of sale to the GREAT DIVIDE, via USPS priority mail with delivery confirmation, unless otherwise noted. Method of payment can be a cashier's check, or money order(s). Personal, business, C.C advance or annuity account checks may be utilized, but must clear funding before the car is released. Additionally, a bank wire transfer may be sent to my local CHASE bank branch here in town; it allows for faster shipping arrangements and a timely closing of the transaction. Finally, PAYPAL may be used as an alternative if previously arranged between the buyer and seller (me), prior to placing a bid, and prior to the end of the auction.
I shall be glad to assist with transportation/ delivery of this Rover to any location, nationwide or overseas. I can make all arrangements for shipping from here to your location, at the most economical shipping rate available.
Feel free to EM or call me with questions at (650) 430-4660 ( no later than 9pm PST, please). Thank you for your interest~!

Autoblog's ultimate holiday rides
Tue, Dec 16 2014Over the hills and through the woods, it's the time of year when many of us visit family and friends for the holidays. But getting there can be a chore. It's cold and snowy across much of the United States, and even if the climate is favorable, the drive to grandmother's house often is not. Think back to holiday road trips of yore: They probably included crying babies, antsy children, hungover adults and frequent bathrooms stops all around. Now, we're all at different life stages here at Autoblog, and the perfect car for one staffer might be as useful as a team of Budweiser Clydesdales to another. Some of us bounce from family event to family event with children and a labrador in tow, while others prefer a quieter, simpler holiday. But whatever the endeavor, we all need wheels. With that in mind, here is the unofficial Autoblog list of the ultimate cars in which to tackle the holiday season. 2015 Ferrari FF To borrow a chestnut from Top Gear presenter James May, "As you'd expect, I've done this properly." That oddly voluptuous ruby bolide in the photo above? It's a 2015 Ferrari FF – all 652 all-wheel-driven horsepower of it. What makes a Ferrari the ideal for holiday time in PaukertLand? My Midwestern winter breaks are wonderful, but they're typically frenetic and slushy, involving a lot of schlepping from house to house and even city to city, not to mention inevitable last-minute runs for forgotten presents and dinner ingredients. Needless to say, a powerful V12 is a welcome ally for such duties. And this one isn't just a friend when the road is clear. The FF has been gifted Ferrari's novel 4RM AWD system, and despite sitting lower to the ground than, say, an SUV, it's a pretty effective tool for real winter driving, especially when outfitted with a set of snow tires. Unlike other Ferraris, it's also a rather practical thing, with legitimate seating for four adults and 15.9 cubic feet of cargo space – that's precisely as much room as a Mercedes E-Class – and you can fold the rear chairs and cram 28.2 cubes-worth of holiday cheer in the back. Okay, so it's far from cheap and fuel economy isn't that great, but who cares? Just drop a paddle-shifted gear or two, bury the throttle and Repeat The Sounding Joy. Ain't the holidays grand? – Chris Paukert Executive Editor 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe My Mom gives out more presents than any other human being I've ever encountered.
Land Rover could build a baby Defender on a platform sourced from BMW
Mon, Aug 12 2019The collaboration between BMW and Jaguar-Land Rover started out small, it was originally limited to motors for electric cars, but it might not stay that way for long. The Tata-owned British sister companies will allegedly rummage through Munich's sizable parts bin to build nearly half a dozen cars scheduled to come out during the 2020s. According to a report by British magazine Autocar, Jaguar has started designing two small cars that will join its growing family of Pace-badged soft-roaders. They'll be new additions to the firm's portfolio, not replacements for existing cars. One will be a regular crossover, while the other will be a swoopier, form-over-function four-door model ostensibly marketed as a coupe. Both will slot at the very bottom of the Jaguar portfolio, below the already pretty small E-Pace, in a growing market segment where the competition is fierce, and profit margins are thinner than an i3's tires. Here's where BMW apparently comes in. Instead of developing a platform from scratch, the two crossovers could ride on the hybrid-ready, front-wheel drive FAAR architecture found under the third-generation 1 Series hatchback and the upcoming 2 Series Gran Coupe. If we believe an earlier report claiming Jaguar and BMW will also share engines, most of the hardware found under the sheet metal will have German genes. All-wheel drive will certainly be available, and it could also come from BMW. The same platform -- and, presumably, the same engines -- would provide the basis for a Land Rover-badged model positioned in the same segment. Autocar learned it will be to the next-generation Defender (pictured) what the Mercedes-Benz GLB is to the G-Class. Some key design cues will carry over, but the two models will share absolutely nothing under the sheet metal. The soft-roader could resurrect the Freelander nameplate when it goes on sale during the 2020s. Looking even further ahead, the front-wheel-drive platform the next Mini Countryman and X1 will utilize could find its way under the replacements for the next Range Rover Evoque and Discovery Sport. These plans could very well change; the Evoque and the Disco Sport barely entered their second generation, so they're not due for a replacement until the second half of the coming decade. While neither company has confirmed or denied the report, the partnership makes sense from a business standpoint.

No donation or payment necessary to enter or win this sweepstakes. See official rules on Omaze. Enter to win this giveaway or any other Omaze experience now through April 23, 2021 and receive 500 extra entries into any campaign plus a chance to win $10K with code GOGREEN500. Simply add the discount at checkout. Whether you like it or not, there will come a day when most, if not all of us, will be driving electric cars. For some of us that day can't come soon enough, and in honor of Earth Day we've put together a list of our favorite car giveaways so you can save some green while being green. Win a 2021 Porsche Taycan Turbo S and $20,000 - Enter Here If there’s one thing Porsche is good at, itÂ’s making fast, beautiful cars, and the Taycan Turbo S is no exception. Making 750 horsepower, 774 lb-ft of torque and a top speed of 161 miles per hour, punching the accelerator will surely throw you back in your seat. In fact, its 0-60 time of 2.6 seconds matches that of the quickest Porsche 911 ever made, the Turbo S. The difference between this Taycan Turbo S and that 911 Turbo S, of course, is that the only reason youÂ’ll ever need to stop off at a gas station is to fill up on snacks. That and the fact the Taycan doesn't actually have a turbo anywhere in the car. We wouldnÂ’t be reaching for a bag of FlaminÂ’ Hot Cheetos, though, because this incredibly comfortable leather interior is immaculate, and weÂ’d hope to keep it that way. Enter here for a chance to win this prize worth $220,000. Win a Himalaya Land Rover Defender 110 EV and $20,000 - Enter Here The Land Rover Defender is an icon: an intense, luxurious off-roader that turns heads and can crawl up nearly anything. The problem? For the past 20+ years it hasn't been available in the United States and it's never been what youÂ’d call environmentally friendly. But this Defender is different. ItÂ’s vintage, restored by Himalaya and itÂ’s all-electric. At 275 horsepower, you wonÂ’t be thrown back in your seat, but the 406 lb-ft of torque helps make this an incredibly capable rock crawler.
