Up for auction is my 2003 Land Rover Discovery 2 with 95.720 actual miles on it.  I have owned this sporty Discovery for 2 years and it really is a blast to drive.  This Discovery handles very nicely on the tight, twisty curves we have in West Virginia and is ready for any adventure you may have in mind for it!

This Discovery has dual sunroofs that both work; tan leather interior; heated driver and passenger seats; automatic climate control with great heat and cold a/c; AM/FM/Cassette Player with 5 Disc CD changer (factory); cruise control; power locks; power windows; armrest /storage compartment; rear defrost; front heated windshield to melt frost; roof rack; and much more!

Since owning this Discovery, I have made several cosmetic and mechanical improvements to it.  Below is a list of recent upgrades/repairs that have been made:
  • Installed New General Grabber All Terrain tires 8,000 miles ago.  These tires were a MUST have for my Discovery with all the snow/sleet/ice we had in the mountains of WV this year and the Discovery handled like a champ.
  • I had my mechanic replace the following 9,000 miles ago:
  • Transmission fluid/filter was changed/replaced.
  • Two new 02 (oxygen) sensors were replaced
  • New spark plugs/wires
  • New serpentine belt
  • New valve cover gaskets
  • New intake & exhaust gaskets
  • New left and right hand side front window regulators
  • When I purchased this Discovery, the headliner was sagging so I had a brand new headliner installed.
  • All 4 of the interior door "skins" were reupholstered to their original condition.
This vehicle is a clean Discovery; it has never been smoked in.  I have never taken it off-road since owning it.  The engine is very strong and quiet; it does not leak any fluids nor does the engine smoke nor have any knock to it.  I have used synthetic oil in the vehicle since owning it (Castrol 5W-30) and have had the oil changed every 3,000 miles.  There are NO Instrument Warning Lights Illuminated on this Discovery (as you will often notice on several other Discovery's).  I replaced the instrument panel lights with LED lights so at night time, the dash is nice and bright; I also replaced all 3 interior light-bulbs with LED lights so the car lights up nicely at night time.  I also had an original Land Rover tow package and wiring installed on this Discovery.  I have taken pride in this vehicle since owning and I hope it shows.

My regular mechanic has informed me that it looks to him that the original engine has been removed and a rebuilt engine was installed at some point.  I cannot confirm this, but wanted to pass this info along to you...

As with any 11 year old vehicle, there is NO warranty with this vehicle as it is not in perfect condition.  The driver's seat had been ripped at one time and it was fixed (it was like this when I purchased it); when they fixed it, they did not do a fantastic job on it as it is still evident but the seat is NOT ripped nor torn.  I just wanted to point this out.  There are some scratches on the paint; there is a little surface rust that is beginning to show under the vehicle (please see included pictures) but it is not bad.  

I have a clean title in hand.  The WV inspection on this Discovery is good until 11/14.  Has a clean CarFax; no accident/damage reported to CARFAX.

Please contact me if you have any questions.

Thanks for looking.

Jaguar wants to become the British electric company

Thu, Sep 8 2016

Jaguar has been telegraphing its electric future for years, and this week we're beginning to see it come to fruition. The company's Formula E race team officially launched September 8 with sponsorship, livery, and an interesting name for its racecar, the I-Type 1. It marks Jaguar's return to factory-supported racing and serves as a model for the company's future strategy. "The Formula E championship will enable us to engineer and test our advanced technologies under extreme performance conditions," Nick Rogers, executive director of product engineering at Jaguar Land Rover, said in a statement. "We will apply this vital knowledge as part of our real-world development." Formula E competition starts October 9 as the all-electric racing series begins its third season. Panasonic signed on as the title sponsor of the team. Formula E is a natural move for Jag and allows the British company to remain true to its racing heritage while still looking toward. The company claims seven Le Mans titles, which is the fourth-most in history, even though it hasn't won one since 1990. That's a great lineage, but Jaguar knows it's getting dusty. Launching a Formula E effort allows it to compete in a form of motorsports that should prove relevant to road-car technology. Jag is drawing on Williams Advanced Engineering (you might have heard of its F1 team) for the electric powertrain. Williams also helped with the development of Jaguar's C-X75 plug-in concept car. Meanwhile, we also captured an F-Pace crossover silently testing this week in the Alps. Though it looks like a normal F-Pace, spy shooters report it was producing no engine noise, leading (or perhaps leaping) to the conclusion it's the rumored electric SUV Jaguar is working on. Likely, this prototype has a diesel engine as a range extender. View 11 Photos Though the camouflaged F-Pace is great fodder for speculation, Jag's electric efforts are not a secret. Jaguar and Land Rover showed off three electric-vehicle demonstrators last year and the company is exploring everything from mild hybrids to full electric powertrains. JLR has filed paperwork to secure trademarks for I-Pace and E-Pace. "JLR is definitely rushing headfirst into electrification," said Ed Kim, vice president of industry analysis for research firm AutoPacific.

Jaguar Land Rover names ousted Renault boss as new CEO

Tue, Jul 28 2020

LONDON — Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) has picked ousted Renault boss Thierry Bollore as its next chief executive, with a mission to return Britain's biggest carmaker to profit after a big hit from the COVID-19 pandemic. Bollore took over at Renault in January 2019 after the fall of Carlos Ghosn, but was always viewed as close to the French carmaker's longtime boss and was pushed out in October when the company was looking for a fresh start. Bollore will take over at JLR on Sept. 10, replacing Ralf Speth, whose tenure ends after more than 10 years. "It will be my privilege to lead this fantastic company through what continues to be the most testing time of our generation," Bollore said in a statement on Tuesday. JLR was hit this year first by disruption to sales in China and then by lockdowns across Europe and North America as the COVID-19 outbreak spread around the globe. In 2019, it cut jobs to address tumbling diesel sales, which helped it return to profit. But as the pandemic struck, it slumped to a pretax loss of 422 million pounds ($545 million) for the year ended March 31, 2020. The company has already taken steps to tackle the crisis, including agreeing to a loan facility of around $700 million with lenders in China and further staff reductions. JLR is also in talks with the British government over potential support, according to media reports. Bollore takes over a business that built just over 500,000 cars in 2019/20. He faces a number of tasks, including how to handle the Jaguar brand, which underperforms the Land Rover marque, how quickly to electrify its lineup and a potential hit from Brexit if trade barriers are imposed. JLR has a partnership with BMW on electrification, and parent company Tata Motors recently recommitted to the company. "Tata Group recognizes and values Jaguar Land Rover's future potential highly," said JLR Chairman Natarajan Chandrasekaran earlier this month. "That is why this company is central to our global automotive presence – a presence that we intend to develop for years to come."

Weekly Recap: Ford GT inspires guitar, foosball table, sailboat

Sat, Apr 18 2015

Ford design vice president Moray Callum had just wrapped up a briefing on the interior of the Ford GT last month, but something seemed out of place. He grinned and pointed behind him, "You might be wondering why I have a boat behind me," he said mischievously. It was there because Ford set its designers on a mission to stretch and showcase their talents: design non-automotive objects inspired by the interior of the GT supercar. Callum received quite a response, too. His team produced a guitar, a foosball table (yeah bro!), a racing sailboat, a Wi-Fi speaker and some furniture. As the veteran design chief explained, "It's a really great exercise both to highlight our designers' talents, but also to really see how our design philosophy can work and how you can use it and get a common response back from a worldwide design team." Guitar View 25 Photos The objects have been on display this week at the Salone del Mobile furniture and fashion design fair in Milan, Italy, where Ford has had a presence for three years. There's also a light exhibition that apparently was inspired by the GT, as well. While this might seem a little far-fetched for the automaker, Ford said exhibitions like the Salone del Mobile give its designers another way to be creative and ultimately produce striking interior style. Ford wants this to be a differentiator, as research shows consumers are placing emphasis on the layout and features inside when they're making a decision about buying a new car. It's a little light hearted – but it's also potentially big business. Other News & Notes Cadillac CT6 platform could be used for Buick General Motors product chief Mark Reuss said the Cadillac CT6 platform could be used for a large Buick, though "not yet," Automotive News reported. The underpinnings can accommodate rear-wheel or all-wheel drive and would give Buick the large flagship it lacks. The report jibes with comments Reuss made at a roundtable with Autoblog and other reporters at the New York Auto Show. When asked if Buick had space for a large car on the CT6 chassis, he replied, "Yeah, I think it does. Yeah, I think we do." Buick has revamped its lineup in recent years with attractive crossovers and small and midsize sedans, but hasn't added the proverbial flagship that's yearned for by enthusiasts. Buick surprised industry observers with the stylish Avenir concept at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year that raised the possibility of a halo sedan.
