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.

Jaguar Land Rover data leak reveals employee records, upcoming layoffs

Fri, May 25 2018

A massive data leak has revealed the personnel files of hundreds of employees at Jaguar Land Rover's factory in Solihull, England. The documents reveal details such as sick days used, disciplinary issues and — most notably — red lines indicating potential firings in the weeks or months ahead. In total, the personal records of more than 600 workers were released. JLR is scrambling to contain the crisis. The breach was first reported by the Huffington Post UK, with the automaker initially claiming the story was "fake news." That publicity gaff certainly didn't help matters, especially for employees staring at their name with a red line slashed across it. Last month, the British automaker had said it would be eliminating roughly 1,000 employees at factories in the U.K. The Solihull plant, which produces models like the Range Rover, Range Rover Sport, Jaguar F-Pace and Jaguar XE, was among those mentioned in the statement. JLR, which is owned by the Indian conglomerate Tata Motors, is facing a steep drop in sales, particularly in its home market. The main culprits include a huge slump in sales of diesel-powered vehicles - a vital part of JLR's business in the U.K. and throughout Europe - along with fears about how the upcoming "Brexit" will affect business operations. In the HuffPost UK story, one worker called the situation "disgusting" and "embarrassing," adding that people at the factory now know whether they, or their colleagues, are soon due to lose their job.

New Land Rover Defender aces Euro crash tests

Wed, Dec 9 2020

While the 2020 Land Rover Defender has not yet been crash-test by U.S. safety agencies such as NHTSA or IIHS, we do now have results for Europe's NCAP crash tests and accident-avoidance tests, where the Defender earned the top rating of five stars. The Defender model used for NCAP testing was the 110 variant with right-hand drive. The NCAP regimen includes several different crash tests: an offset front crash test into a moveable barrier with both the vehicle and the barrier traveling at 50 km/hr (31 mph), a front crash test into a full-width fixed barrier at 50 km/hr (31 mph), a side-impact crash test with a barrier traveling at 60 km/hr (37 mph) hitting the driver's door, and a side-impact test where the car strikes a pole at 32 km/hr (20 mph). The Defender's scores for the adult occupant and for a child occupant were both 85%. Additionally, the agency looks at the severity of injuries of the vehicle striking a pedestrian, taking data for a pedestrian's head hitting the hood, and their upper and lower leg being hit by the front of the vehicle. There is also testing of the vehicle's automatic emergency braking system's ability to avoiding hitting a pedestrian and a cyclist under various scenarios. The efficacy of active-safety systems for avoiding collisions with other vehicles is also tested. The Defender's score for protecting pedestrians and cyclists was 71%. The driver assists scored 79%. Results for several European-market cars were released together with those for the Defender, the most noteworthy of which was for the Honda E. The electric city car fared less well than the big Land Rover, garnering a score of four stars overall. In the same battery of test, the Honda E scored 76% for adult occupant protection, 82% for a child occupant, 62% for protecting pedestrians and cyclists, and 65% for its driver assists.

Jaguar Land Rover tech tracks brainwaves, heart, lungs

Wed, Jun 17 2015

Jaguar Land Rover has been on a bit of a tech kick lately, and its latest is called Mind Sense, which uses biometric sensors to monitor and enhance the driver's level of alertness. Jaguar is installing brainwave sensors adapted from NASA into the steering wheel of an XJ sedan, along with medical-grade heart and respiratory sensors in the seat. Together, the sensors would determine if the driver is focused on the road, dozing off, merely thinking about something else, or if the driver's stress level suddenly peaks. The system would enable the vehicle to better prepare for an emergency, or for a future autonomous vehicle to hand off control to a better-prepared driver where needed. At the same time, JLR is also working on an enhanced infotainment system designed to reduce the amount of time the driver's hands are off the wheel and their eyes are off the road. The system determines which control they're reaching for on the display and engages it while their finger is still in mid-air, deploying an ultrasonic pulse to provide artificial haptic feedback without actually having to touch anything. Finally, a new haptic accelerator pedal is under development that could alert the driver to respond to an impending situation without overloading the senses with chimes and beeps. These latest developments follow the demonstration of a remote-control system installed on a Range Rover Sport, and follow in a long line of new technologies under development by the British automaker. JAGUAR LAND ROVER ROAD SAFETY RESEARCH INCLUDES BRAIN WAVE MONITORING TO IMPROVE DRIVER CONCENTRATION AND REDUCE ACCIDENTS - Jaguar Land Rover's pioneering Mind Sense project is researching measuring brainwaves to monitor driver concentration in the car - Researchers are developing a Wellness Seat in a Jaguar XJ which analyses the driver's heart rate and breathing to monitor driver health and stress - Touchscreens that predict which button you want to press as the user's fingers are in mid-air - to minimise time spent with eyes off the road - Jaguar Land Rover researchers use new haptic accelerator pedal to communicate hazards to the driver Whitley, UK: Jaguar Land Rover has revealed a range of new road safety technology research projects that are being developed to reduce the number of accidents caused by drivers who are stressed, distracted and not concentrating on the road ahead.
