Today I am making the hard decision of selling my Off-road ready Land Rover Discovery. I bought this car in late January of 2013.  It had roughly 189,400 miles on it, and was in need of some TLC.  The man I bought it from had bought it as a novelty item and did not understand what a great car he had on his hands. Due to financial troubles he was forced to sell, and bought it from him days after.  As you can see I have been very busy with the Discovery, repairing and replacing item throughout.  My plan with this car was to take it from the "diamond in the rough" condition and bring it back to par with 2013.  I can tell you mechanically this vehicle is solid, the engine was just overhauled and given a clean bill of health.  All the lights and accessories work flawlessly. The transmission was also looked over and found to be perfectly fine. The tires and brakes are also in good condition with plenty of miles left on them.  By the lengthy repairs you can tell, I am not one to skimp out and am a perfectionist.  When I hear something or see something odd it gets dealt with that very same week. 

This car has been a weekend cruiser for me, and sadly due to lack of free time have not had the opportunity to take it off road. During the week it sits parked in a warehouse waiting for the weekend. The vehicle exterior and interior are above average for there age and milage.  Before purchasing this vehicle I looked at several discovery's (both newer and older) and could not find one with as much potential as this one.  The interior does not have any tears in the seats or carpet. The seats havent faded or began sagging, and the leather is plush and soft. The exterior body is straight, with very small dents on the drivers door panel (see photos).  The paint was not professionally done, and does not have a Ferrari finish to it. For a 14 year old off-road SUV spending $2,000 + on a mirror gloss paint job felt like a waste, since off-roading will always scratch glossy paint jobs. The car originally was gold in color with the common Land Rover fading/cracking paint.  I had the old paint sanded down, and sprayed with a coat of bed liner to prevent rust and oxidation. Then it was painted Mineral Grey and clear coated.  Very easy to touch up, making scratches and imperfections an easy repair. 

This vehicle has over $10,000 in repair and modification.  While the miles may be higher than to your liking, I can tell you its nothing to alarm you. The car is rock solid, and I wouldn't for a moment hesitate to drive it cross country or across the country.
I am selling this car because a close group of friends and I were going to take a road trip to Cabo San Lucas in it, however there just isn't enough free time to do all this, and I am not planning to go off road anytime soon.  Therefore it needs a home who will take care of it and use it for what it was built for.    

Please know: This car is 13 years old with 192k on the odometer.  It is far from a new car, and while it is in outstanding condition, it has its blemishes.  Please see all photos and videos below before purchasing or bidding.  
THIS VEHICLE IS BEING SOLD "AS-IS" / ALL SALES ARE FINAL
PAYMENT: $200 NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT IS REQUIRED 48 HOURS AFTER AUCTION CLOSE VIA PAYPAL.
SHIPPING: IF YOU PLAN TO SHIP THE VEHICLE, YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ACQUIRING TRANSPORT.

Please contact me with questions and concerns before bidding. A bid is a binding contract between the buyer and the seller.  If you plan to bid, you plan on buying. All violators will be reported to eBay.

Current photos are pictured below, however I have HD photos in the photo bucket album link below.  They were taken October 2013, prior to the exhaust, strobe lights, and parking sensor install. That is the only difference between these photos.

Recharge Wrap-up: Jaguar Land Rover talks EVs, Batteries should be modular

Wed, Sep 3 2014

A new study out of Germany suggests adopting a modular approach to battery offerings in plug-in hybrid and extended range electric vehicles. Automakers could offer the same car with different battery sizes (and different costs, accordingly) to drivers depending on their driving ranges. This would optimize the total cost of ownership for various drivers better than the current approach. Developing a modular battery design and offering appropriate batteries for different customers "is the key for electric powertrains to meet customer expectations and become cost competitive against conventional technologies," according to the report from the Institute of Vehicle Concepts, German Aerospace Center. Learn more at Green Car Congress. Jaguar and Land Rover are looking to offer more electric driving from their vehicles. Wolfgang Ziebart, head of product development for Jaguar Land Rover, said in an interview that its hybrid system is being tweaked for more electric power and "downsized" combustion. He also said the likely target market for EVs would be second and third vehicles, rather than primary vehicles for urban driving. Within that market, Europeans look for something smaller, while American drivers lean toward larger luxury vehicles for their second car. Ziebart uses the Tesla Model S as an example of American tastes, and compares its size to that of the Jaguar XJ. Read more at Automotive News Europe. Thailand will likely approve a Volkswagen factory as early as next week. A German newspaper suggests that Thailand's Board of Investment is set to greenlight the plant, which is planned for a site near the Port of Bangkok. Thailand is a relatively large and growing auto manufacturing country, which seeks to be a major producer of eco-friendly vehicles. The country's "Eco2" program would provide incentives to Volkswagen if it builds clean cars and meets certain production targets. Read more at Reuters. Formula E has chosen Sky Deutschland for broadcasting rights in the German market. The deal includes television rights, as well as online broadcasting. Sky Deutschland has 3.8 million subscribers in Germany and Austria. Showing the races on Germany's largest pay television provider should help generate interest for the series, particularly the Berlin ePrix - the inaugural season's penultimate race - scheduled for May 30, 2015.

Jaguars and Land Rovers to feature in 007's Spectre

Mon, Feb 9 2015

James Bond may be more closely associated with Aston Martin, but Jaguars and Land Rovers have featured in 007 movies new and old. Skyfall, the most recent installment in the series, opened with Bond and Moneypenny ripping through the streets of Istanbul in a Defender and saw M being chauffeured around London in an XJ. And the upcoming feature Spectre is set to feature some of JLR's finest as well. While Bond himself will be piloting the new Aston Martin DB10, the movie will also feature a Jag and a couple of Landies. The Jaguar C-X75 concept, as we know, will be part of a chase scene against the DB10, now revealed to be set in Rome. But the movie will also include the new Range Rover Sport SVR (with what looks like some auxiliary lighting) and at least two Defenders modified by JLR Special Operations to "Big Foot" specifications with 37-inch off-road tires, upgraded suspensions and added bodywork protection. As you may recall, a couple of months ago a fleet of nine vehicles used in the film were stolen from a garage in Dusseldorf, including five Range Rover Sports. This is the first confirmation we're seeing of any of them being SVR models, or of the Big Foot Defenders being part of the mix as well. The scenes including the Land Rovers have already been filmed in Austria, and we're looking forward to seeing them all on the silver screen come November.

Broccoli's EON Productions, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios, and Sony Pictures Entertainment. These will include the Jaguar C-X75, Range Rover Sport SVR and Defender Big Foot, which have been provided by Jaguar Land Rover Special Operations. The Jaguar C-X75 will feature in a spectacular car chase sequence through Rome alongside the Aston Martin DB10. The C-X75 vehicles used in filming have been built in collaboration with Williams Advanced Engineering facility in Oxfordshire, England.

Jaguar Land Rover building new R&D center for hybrids, EVs, autonomous cars

Wed, 25 Sep 2013

The success of Jaguar Land Rover in recent years has largely been down to a resurgent product lineup, but a recent move into the research and development will see the British-based, Indian-owned brands take the fight to its German rivals more aggressively than ever before.
JLR is investing 50 million pounds ($80,345,000, as of this writing) in a joint R&D center in central England. The move will more than triple its staff dedicated to research, from 150 to 500, with Wolfgang Epple, JLR's Director of Research and Technology telling Automotive News Europe, "In order to play among the big animals in automotive and to be anchored in the mind of customers you have to have offered something unique, to be first in market. We want to be one of the key premier automotive manufacturers."
Jaguar Land Rover's 50-million-pound contribution represents more than half of the 94-million-pound tab, on the so-called National Automotive Innovation Campus. Based at Warwick University, Tata's European Technical Center, Warwick Manufacturing Group and the Higher Education Funding Council, an agency of the British government, are all chipping in for the facility.
