2004 Range Rover, With $14k Repairs Completed, One Owner, Works Great on 2040-cars
Kissimmee, Florida, United States
|
Hello. I am the original buyer and owner of this 2004 Range Rover. And while it has 188,000 miles on it, please know that in the past 18 months, I've put some $14,359 of key repairs into the car so the new owner should have good future service. I'd like to tell you the whole history of the car, and so let's begin.
I bought this Rover from Range Rover dealer in McLean, VA in 2004. Sticker price was total $77,950 which included the Luxury Interior Package of $5,000. Please find a photo of the window sticker included in the photos section. This has been a wonderful car, giving great service. This is the BMW redesign of Rover, and it has the BMW engine. The car worked just great with little repairs for the first 140,000 miles. Then in the past 18 months, there were significant repairs needed and this is probably reasonable given the high mileage. For you the prospective new buyer, you should know that only Range Rover parts have been used during the life of the car. Service was performed by Rover dealer in Virginia, and then here in Orlando. About 18 months ago, I switched my service loyalty over to E2 Services here in Orlando which is owned and operated by previous lead service tech from the Orlando dealership. They work on just Land Rovers and Mini Coopers, and their services are excellent at better prices than the dealership. Also, they are timely in their repair work. Today I visited E2 and got a six page print out of all the details of the various service repairs done to my car. These pages will be sent to new buyer. Here is fast recap of the major repairs done on the car: -- March 16, 2012: $4,011 for new radiator, new cabin filter, new hoses throughout, new AT filter, transmission service, replace 4 front control arms and ball joints. --May 1, 2012: $2022.12 for new Strut Assembly, front air strut, thermostat replacement, new battery. --March 6, 2013: $662 for new Valve Cover Gasket, remove and replace both, and new front brake pads rotors and sensor. --April 23, 2013: $1257 for expansion tank, water pump, BG induction kit. --March 12, 2013: $1328 Valve Covers replace both, turn signal assembly front left and front right. --June 17, 2013: $1919 for strut assembly air suspension, right side, and rear brake pads rotors and sensors; with this repair, air suspension system for front left and front right have been completed; also, new brakes for front and back have been installed. --September 20, 2013: $1194 for new suspension compressor; also routine oil change. --December 5, 2013: $1225 for new fuel pump, new fuel pump filters. And $50 for a pair of new struts for rear window opening/closing. OK, those are the major repairs. And remember, this car has delivered 188,000 miles so this $14,359 of service is more understandable. The good news for you, is that these repairs have already been completed. When you see other 2004 Rovers advertised at lower prices, please check to see what repairs have been made. This Rover has never been in accident. Rover has been garaged since taking delivery in 2004. Car is 100% no smoking. All repairs have been with Land Rover parts. Car has been detailed cleaned each month for past eight years. Car is very clean inside and out. Tires were bought from Costco on July 3, 2012 and the four tires are Michelin Latitude Tour HP All Season and cost about $1300 installed; tires were put on when car had 159K miles, so total miles on the tires are about 25K. The Costco people thought these high quality tires should deliver 50K miles. For all the repairs, and the Costco Tires, I have about 24 pages of receipts that I will provide the buyer. There are two original smart keys that came with the car. It seems the transmitting key lasts about three years, and about two years ago, I ordered a new third key from Land Rover Orlando. This $300 third key works great. The other two keys still work, but on one I needed to put tape to hold the battery compartment together. Future keys can be ordered from any Rover dealer. OK, that's the whole story. As you give this thought, please keep in mind that this 2004 Rover has many miles, but that also it has already had the repairs of $14, 359 completed so that you the new owner get a great looking car with so many repairs completed with original Rover parts done by Rover trained techs. Please see that I have over 300 transactions on ebay and I have 100% positive feedback. What that should mean to you, is that I'm a fair seller and I'm giving you the honest story. Bidding rules: Upon completion of auction or Buy It Now, buyer will send immediate Pay Pal deposit of $500. Balance of payment will be wire transfer from your checking account to my checking account at my local Bank of America; the wire transfer will cost you about $25.00 which is much better than the Pay Pal charge of 3%. Only when Pay Pal payment and wire transfer have been received, will I then sign over the clear title and provide car for pickup here in Orlando, FL market. You might want to hire a car carrier company to come pick up the car and that works very well. One company that does a great job is United Auto Carrier. USA shipping only. OK, here is the video that I shot about one month ago that give complete story. I've also shot a new video today December 6, and I'm having trouble putting it up on You Tube but I'll get it figured out and this will be up shortly. Why am I selling? I've found a new 2012 Rover that I'd like to buy so I'm putting this 2004 up for sale; I had this up for sale previously for about one day, but then I rethought the sale and thought I'd keep it another year. Just recently I found this newer 2012 that I'd like to get so now I'm wanting to sell this car again. OK here's the video story. Please note that the still pictures were taken today December 6, 2013. Please send any questions . |

Frankfurt Motor Show Notes: Why Jaguar decided to build an SUV
Wed, Sep 16 2015It was inevitable. Jaguar had to make an SUV, and that notion became reality this week with the debut of the F-Pace, an all-wheel-drive five-seater that will launch in the United States next spring. Some purists may cringe. But in an era when Porsche, Bentley, Lamborghini, Rolls-Royce, Aston Martin, and other traditional luxury brands are all building or (planning to build) SUVs, Jaguar had to evolve. While it seems like a leap for Jaguar to make an SUV, longtime design director Ian Callum said it's been in the works for years. "The first time I was asked the question was when I arrived 16 years ago," he said. So in 1999 (and probably well before that), Jaguar was already thinking SUV. What took so long? "It wasn't a priority," Callum said. Jaguar was concentrating on fixing its existing lineup, which was pockmarked with holes and poorly selling products, like the X-Type. Along the way, Jaguar and sister brand Land Rover were sold by Ford to Indian conglomerate Tata Motors. Flash forward several years, and Jaguar and Land Rover are both experiencing a resurgence in the United States and around the world. Jaguar's lineup is flush with the E-Type's modern successor, the F-Type, plus a new version of the XF. The XJ received a 2016 freshening, and the smaller XE sedan is on the way. Jaguar put its house in order as other factors conspired to make a crossover timely. Fuel prices stayed relatively low, and consumers in the US and China remained steadfast in their love for utility vehicles of all stripes. Making a Jaguar SUV became a priority. "The world was telling us in no uncertain terms this is what they wanted," Callum said. "Not to be in the sector would be a little naive for the sake of purity." Jaguar proved its intent two years ago when it revealed the C-X17 crossover concept at Frankfurt, and the final production model is close to the prototype's striking looks. "I thought we managed to maintain that spirit," Callum said. It's a true Jaguar, with cues from the F-Type, 1968 XJ, and other famous models. Who would have thought Jaguar would make an SUV? "I certainly didn't," Callum admitted. But the F-Pace is here. If Callum is okay with it, purists can be, too. Quick Hits Opel retrenches for 2016 and beyond Opel used the Frankfurt show to display its new generation of the Astra, a critical vehicle line for the German division of General Motors.
