1996 Land Rover Discovery Se, 4-door 4.0l V8-engine, White, Bay Area - Calif on 2040-cars
San Francisco, California, United States
|
Available now - my 1996 Land Rover Discovery. This rugged truck has been a loyal warrior - I drove it to Burning Man this past summer (hence all that dust that you see in the photos!), went hiking into the Sierra Nevadas and drove around San Francisco -- this truck does everything. On the right side there are scrapes and dents as you can see in the photos, and the right-side headlight needs a proper mount. But it runs fine and is ready to drive, with a great smooth-sounding strong V8 engine, automatic transmission, AC that blows cold and two sunroofs. This has 202,188 miles; engine was replaced approx 49K miles back with a new one.
What does not work: the passenger-side front seat (the seats are electric) doesn't adjust although you can jump a wire on it to make it work. The light bulb that illuminates the transmission-shifter is out. The driver-side front door is troublesome to lock using the key-remote. The bike-rack that you see within the photos here does not come with it (unless you want to buy it - it's the Thule swing-away that holds four bikes). I do have a proper title to convey over to you, and the vehicle did just this last week get a passing smog-test certificate. I am in San Leandro, next to Alameda and Oakland. I do drive into San Francisco a few days a week (Telegraph Hill area) so if you'd like we could meet there. Thank you for looking, & best of wishes James |

Jaguar Land Rover and Chery investing in Chinese plant
Sat, 24 Nov 2012While the European auto market for Jaguar and Land Rover is waning, Chinese car buyers can't get enough of the British marques. To meet that demand, Tata Motors, parent company of Jag and Land Rover, is partnering with Chinese automaker Chery Automobile Co.
The two announced plans to invest $1.75 billion to build a new plant and create a new, China-focused brand. 2014 is the target for completion of the factory. Jaguars and Land Rovers built at the facility will be the first ever produced outside the UK according to the Associated Press. The JV will be called Chery Jaguar Land Rover Automotive Company Ltd.
The announcement comes less than a month after JLR announced it would open a design studio in China. It's not clear from the reports whether the two announcements are part of the same JV or two separate plans.
Jaguar opens new engine plant in the UK
Thu, 30 Oct 2014The heads of Jaguar Land Rover are having a busy couple of weeks opening factories. Just days after inaugurating the company's first overseas plant in China, the automaker's new Engine Manufacturing Center in the UK is being inaugurated, as well. The plant near Wolverhampton, England, marks the first time in decades that JLR is building its own powerplants in-house. Further signaling the importance of this launch for the business, Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip were on hand and even tweeted about it.
The factory's first major project is to build JLR's latest Ingenium four-cylinders, starting with the 2.0-liter diesel version. "Our new Engine Manufacturing Centre is an important step in advancing the competitiveness and capability of the UK automotive sector. The production of in-house engines will support the expansion of the UK supply chain providing critical mass for inward investment," said Trevor Leeks, plant operations director in the automaker's announcement.
Opening the doors to the Engine Manufacturing Center has been years in the making for JLR. The plant was first announced in September 2011 and broke ground in June 2012. Building it cost the company 500 million pounds ($800 million) and created 1,400 new jobs. Of course, being a state-of-the-art factory, considerations were made to make the place as energy efficient as possible. That meant installing the UK's largest solar array with 21,000 panels to produce about 30 percent of the site's electricity needs.
Jaguar Land Rover building new Special Vehicle Operations facility
Sun, 17 Aug 2014It's only been a couple of months since Jaguar Land Rover announced the formation of its new Special Operations division, and we've already seen a number of vehicles to come out of it. But now the British automaker has announced a new facility that will house its elite skunkworks department.
Set to be built at Prologis Park in Ryton, England, on the outskirts of Coventry, the new Special Vehicle Operations Technical Centre will encompass dedicated production lines, F1-style flexible workshops, a dedicated paint studio and VIP suite for commissioning bespoke projects. JLR will spend some $33 million on the facility that will be home to 150 specialists - 100 of them being new hires.
The first project which the Special Operations division is working on is the F-Type Project 7, but we've already seen more projects in the pipeline - including the upcoming Range Rover Sport SVR - and you can bet there'll be more. The revival of the Lightweight E-Type also falls under Special Operations, but is undertaken by the Jaguar Heritage department located nearby at Browns Lane.
