Introduction:
If you’ve been looking for that perfectly serviced, low
family ownership, ultra clean Discovery II 7-Seater, your search is over! This is an AWESOME truck… it joins the best
of both world: All the options and refinement of the Disco 2’s – including rear air suspension! – but as it’s an
SD7, so it also boasts more overall reliability than its more equipment
burdened cousins. I think you’ll find
that with a truck like this flaunting over $7000 of recent retail servicing,
jumping on it should be a no brainer!
Service and Reliability:
As a Land Rover technician whose passion for the marquee
inspires my dedication, I always use the best genuine parts and expert skill
with their fitment. The following is a
list of all of the servicing done to ensure that your ownership experience is
as enjoyable as possible!

value 120K original miles, Clean California title in
hand, passed new stringent California Star-Smog certification with flying
colors. Excellent CARFAX history.
Styling and Options:
The SD7’s were all business – they featured all of the
legendary updates that made the Discovery II’s what they are, and yet – they
are designed to be as field ready as you would hope from a truck in the Land
Rover line-up.
As I’m sure you can see from the pictures, the Alpine White exterior is BLINDINGLY
gorgeous. The paint is still smooth to
the touch and will be forever. The
Alpine White colour was the ONLY Rover colour that was formulated to resist the
battering of harsh sun-bleached climates around the world. You will never have to worry about fade; as
you would with nearly any other colour.
The Bahama Beige seats
are in excellent condition; soft, clean and perfectly working. All power seats work as they should; as does
the rear split-folding bench, as well as both of the 3rd row jump seats and
folding head rests.
The factory running boards are near perfect, the front
bumper has no chunks missing, both front wheel brake vent scoops are still
intact and the rear folding cabin step tucks away as it should!
The rugs are still clean, plush and odor free. This was a non smoker vehicle and it shows
from the second you get into it. The Brand New headliner rounds out that
feeling of factory freshness and she even smells like a new car inside.
The best part about the cabin for me is the non-sunroof
interior. It protects both drivers and
passengers from blistering sun – where the retractable sunroof screens on other
models don’t quite do the job. You have
a roof that will never leak, you have a cabin with more head room, and when
summer heat is at its worst, the SD’s will ALWAYS stay much cooler inside.
Performance and Operation:
As you would think, this truck performs brilliantly. It does not overheat, tick, knock, stumble,
or hesitate at all. There are no warning
lights, and no stored codes. It is all
power, all go, all guts, from the second you turn the key. This truck was really combed over to be the
best it can be. All electrical windows,
seats, sunroofs, doors, lights work perfect.
The steering is crisp, the suspension is tight, and the drivetrain has
been fully serviced making it totally reliable. The next-gen HVAC AC and HEAT work great and
with its recent service, the AC is ear-lobe and knuckle freezing cold!!!!
With selectable SPORT mode, you can launch onto the
motorways with total confidence. There
are no shimmies, shakes, or wanderings of any kind. The ride – partly due to the rear EAS – is rail
road like in quality. No clunks or bumps
– just a smooth, quiet, reliable ride you can feel. Have another look at the highlighted shots
featuring standard ride height and max ride height: there is NO LEAK DOWN
whatsoever.
Let’s talk about Rear
Air Suspension. This feature is the
advanced version of the EAS that was originally developed by Land Rover In
1993. It is more robust and reliable
than older models and works perfectly.
For most people it is great for two reasons – A) Towing. It will automatically level your ride height
when pulling a trailer as opposed to a normal vehicle that collapses and does a
wheelie with your camper in tow. B) Enhanced comfort. As mentioned, you will absolutely notice a
difference when you hit speed bumps, pot holes, and crowned roads/dip
crossings. This is especially nice for
your 3rd row passengers!!!
Purchasing, Perspective & Why Buy From Me:
No one puts a Land Rover together better than me,
PERIOD. It’s the vehicle I drive, and
the vehicle I RACE. Nearly two decades of Rover ownership and
service are poured into every Rover that I see into new hands.
All too common are
sales from the brokerage houses where a vehicle will receive a detail service
and nothing else. Leaving maintenance
work for the pleasure of the new owner; often time’s immediately following
reception of the vehicle. Beware of
any vintage Rover that does not share the same service points as the ones I
advertise with my trucks. They are
ESSENTIAL for long term reliability and any Classic without these services are
ticking time bombs. I am not a Land
Rover tech that drives home in a Honda Civic.
I come from a long line of British Car technicians and Live, Breathe and
even RACE the green oval. I understand
ALL of your concerns and needs and do my best to ensure that you will be happy
based on a simple, yet powerful concept:
DOES THIS VEHICLE MAKE ME HAPPY?
WOULD I PUT MY WIFE AND BABY IN IT? WOULD I LOVE TO HAVE IT? The answer is always yes. And that’s when I know they are ready. I care.
I know you do, too.
Vehicles that I see off not only have domestic endpoints,
they go to the farthest reaches of the planet.
They have gone to Europe, Asia, The South Pacific, Central America and
currently, a client recently purchased a trail-ready 88 RRC and is en route to
Tierra Del Fuego after I picked him up in the vehicle at LAX when he flew in to
receive it! The point here is, I believe
in each and every vehicle that I usher in to new ownership. Please see my recent vehicle sales and I’m
sure you’ll be impressed. I have A LOT
of copy-cats out there. If you aren’t buying
one from me… its, well, NOT from me even though other sellers go so far as to
“cut-n-paste” my listings!!!
While these vehicles are all totally looked after, they are
not immune to future service needs and flaws.
They are used vehicles and normal flaws and wear should be expected as
the vast majority of them are pushing 20+ years old. Case in point on this truck, the pictures
display a host of parking lot variety dings and bangs; but nothing in my
opinion that takes away from its overall quality and reliability. I invite you to ask ANY AND ALL QUESTIONS
NOW! There are no queries too obscure;
your satisfaction is the goal here.
Additionally, eBay offers a 3rd party inspection service to
verify ALL of your acquisition needs IN PERSON.
Purchase of the vehicle = SATISFACTION.
Once this auction is over, the winning bid and purchase imply that
satisfaction has been achieved and will be understood as such. There are no warranties offered here, but
that said, there is always an unspoken “hand-shake” warranty meaning that
should something fail within a reasonable amount of time – say a hose, a
coilpack, a distributor, blower motors, an alternator, a switch, etc – I will
be happy to send you what I have available at that time.
This is a NO RESERVE AUCTION so you are bidding to win! Please make sure that you bid ONLY what you
are prepared to pay. This means, when
the auction is over, and the winning bid is placed, this becomes THE SALE PRICE
of the vehicle. Under no circumstances
does it open the door to negotiate or back out of your commitment. The people bidding for this vehicle actually
want it. Do not spoil their chances at
ownership by arm-chair bidding. Yes,
everyone joins eBay at some point, and there is no prejudice against lower
transaction numbers here – HOWEVER – if I suspect and/or become aware of any
insincerity on the part of said bidder, I reserve the right to cancel all bids
from and block that insincere bidder from this auction.
Completion of this transaction is fairly straight
forward. Once the auction is over, I
will be contacting the winner immediately and we can discuss the easiest way to
finalize the transition.
Who is this truck for:
Great question!
First – anyone looking for a reliable & clean D2 7-Seater. Beyond that, it can be a great 1st
car, weekender, guest vehicle, daily driver, or build platform for an excellent
off-road expedition truck. She’s as
versatile as she is reliable. Whatever you decide to do with it, it is most
certainly up to the task. Snow season is
coming, back to school time is here – where will you find yourself in this
awesome D2? Best of luck and Happy
Rovering!!!

While it offers diesel models and even a couple hybrids, Jaguar Land Rover isn't quite as fleshed out on alternative powertrains as its luxurious German rivals. That should change pretty soon. JLR revealed three concepts at the CENEX Low Carbon Vehicle event in Millbrook, England, today. The Concept_e "research demonstrators" all use a new electric drive module, an EV system that the Indian-owned, British-based outfit claims will double the power and torque of today' electric motors. JLR says these modular EDMs can be paired with any of the company's engines or transmissions to create either a mild hybrid, a plug-in hybrid, or a pure EV. So yeah, this is kind of a big deal. Arguably the most exciting offering is a one-of-a-kind research vehicle. Riding on JLR's aluminium aluminum architecture, it ties together two electric motors – an 85-kW unit with a single-speed trans on the front axle and a 145-kW rear motor that's been mated to a two-speed transmission – with a 70-kWh li-ion battery that's mounted in the underbody of the car. There's also the Concept_e MHEV. This is a Range Rover Evoque that's been fitted with a mild hybrid system. Just a refresher, but a mild hybrid is very different than what's found in either a Chevrolet Volt or Toyota Prius, as it uses the electric motor and battery pack to simply assist the internal combustion engine, rather than for an electric driving mode. Reflecting that use, this particular Evoque uses a 15-kilowatt electric motor and a 48-volt, lithium-ion battery pack alongside a 90-metric-horsepower diesel-powered prototype. Finally, we have a Range Rover Sport-based plug-in hybrid. This brute uses a 300-metric-horsepower prototype gas engine and an eight-speed automatic alongside a 150-kilowatt electric motor. Energy is stored in a trunk-mounted, 320-volt, li-ion battery back. Partially funded by the British government, the EDMs are the result of a 16.3-million-pound ($25-million) research-and-development program. They're built in house by JLR, but were developed alongside 12 partners. While these concepts are exciting, don't get your hopes up to see a plug-in Jaguar XF or an all-electric Discovery Sport in your local dealer any time soon. "This is a long-term Jaguar Land Rover research project exploring all aspects of future hybrid and battery electric vehicle technology," JLR research and design boss Dr. Wolfgang Epple said in the attached statement.

Jaguar and Land Rover are known for making highly covetable luxury, performance and off-road vehicles, but the British automakers are on a bit of a technology bent lately. Keen to show that it can not only keep up but lead the way when it comes to safety and convenience features, JLR has come out with two more systems to show the way forward. JLR's new 360 Virtual Urban Windscreen system, showcased on an XJ sedan, adopts two novel approaches to getting around town. First up is the Transparent Pillar system, which uses a combination of cameras and display screens embedded in the A, B and C-pillars to make them virtually disappear. Instead of acting as blind spots limiting the driver's visibility, the system uses the roof pillars to display what's going on around the car. If there's an obstacle hidden by the A-pillars, the system shows you the potential hazard as if the pillars weren't there, and brings the obstacle to the driver's attention. If the driver turns his or her head to see a vehicle passing alongside, it projects the vehicle on the inside of the B- or C-pillar. The second technology integrated in the next-generation head-up display is the Follow-Me Ghost Car Navigation system, which takes a page out of the video-game playbook by projecting a "ghost car" on the windscreen that the driver can then "follow" instead of listening to turn-by-turn directions or looking at a map in the dashboard display. The system is similar to what Jaguar recently showcased on an F-Type for track use, but applied for more practical use on city streets and highways. The release of these systems also follows the integrated smart navigation and infotainment system displayed on the Range Rover Sport and the Transparent Bonnet showcased on the Discovery Vision concept. Though these new technologies might not be quite ready for production applications, their impressive sum total goes to show that Jaguar Land Rover is ahead of the curve when it comes to reducing driver distraction and increasing the driver's visibility. Scope out the latest systems in the press release and video below for a closer look of what the future holds for British-style luxury motoring. This content is hosted by a third party.
