The BAD
Slight oil leak. I was told by a local Rover guy (blueridgerover.com) all british cars leak. If the leak is smaller than a size of softball don't worry about it. It does not drip at all but it is apparent underneath the suv. Does not use oil between oil changes (Every 3000 miles so it is definitely a very tiny leak - does not overheat).
Drivers side blows fuse F20. (Only if you sit on it indicating a short somewhere in the heater circuit. I replace the fuse, get where I need the seat to be and then remove it)
The clear coat is peeling (mainly on the hood), but the rest of the bodywork is very good with no rust or damage.
Cruise control does not work (That is how it was when I bought it)
Other cosmetic stuff (Radio woks great but display cluster is gone. The glove box drops down all the way to the floor, Door (driver side front) sill plastic trim is cracked in one place, the plastic trim under the steering column has two spots where it has broken off , driver side headlight wiper arm missing, front range rover decal letters are gone - again all of this was how it was when I bought it)
Some warning lights (Brake ABS and TC) take about 10-20 seconds to go off
Nothing else , no other hidden damage. It is my daily driver
I have priced this very competitively knowing its excellent interior and exterior condition and all of the quirks that have been described above. But I understand that it is still buyers who decide what the suv is worth so listing it at OBO.
Location Asheville NC 28732
Will accept cashiers cheque on a nationalized bank that has a branch in my area, cash, wire transfer / teller deposit or escrow.
No warranty express or implied. This suv drives great and ready for a P38 enthusiast

This Or That: 1987 VW Vanagon Syncro vs. 1987 Land Rover Defender [w/poll]
Thu, 13 Nov 2014As I scoured auction sites and classified ads for the perfect vehicle to take into battle with Autoblog Associate Editor Brandon Turkus, I knew I needed to find something unique. You see, I'm currently 0-2 at winning a round of This or That, in which two of our editors agree on a category, choose a side, and argue it out over a (mostly) friendly chain of emails.
The first time we did this, my chosen Fiat 500 Abarth took about a third of the popular vote in our reader poll. The second time, my lovely 1980 Oldsmobile 442 did just a little bit better against a 1989 BMW 635 CSi. Despite holding the opinion that my automotive choices, though perhaps a little bit more... obscure than my fellow editors, are still better, an outright win would go a long way toward boosting my vehicular self worth a few notches upward.
With all of that out of the way, even if three isn't my lucky number after all, I go into battle against Brandon knowing full well that I've made the perfect choice: A 1987 Volkswagen Vanagon Syncro. My rough-and-tumble van/'ute has a formidable opponent in the form of a 1987 Land Rover Defender, which, truth be told, is exactly what I was expecting from Turkus, a self-proclaimed Rover aficionado.
Land Rover, Toyota big winners in ALG top resale value awards
Tue, 18 Nov 2014
"Residual value is important for automakers and consumers because it's a complete indicator of the vehicle's future value." - Larry Dominique

Jaguar crossover won't be based on Evoque or have off-road chops
Wed, 21 Aug 2013Jaguar's long-rumored crossover won't be built on the same platform as the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque, says the Australian site Car Advice. The future of the new CUV remains uncertain, but if Jaguar does dip its toes into the SUV/crossover pool, though, the new vehicle will likely be a car-based soft roader, lacking (or perhaps more appropriately, not needing) the off-road-engineered chops inherent in Land Rover's small CUV platform.
Jaguar product planner Steven De Ploey explained to Car Advice, "There's many groups around the world [platform sharing] - obviously Volkswagen Group is doing it all the time - but I think we have to be careful. He added, "Jaguar is something quite different... It's about capability, but very much on-road focused capability." That seems to gel with our suspicions that the XQ, as it's expected to be called, will share its platform with an upcoming small Jaguar sedan, the oft-rumored X-Type successor.
Still, we'd recommend taking any mention of a Jaguar crossover with a grain of salt. Based on many of the (quite compelling) statements made by De Ploey against a Jag crossover and previous statements made by Jag's design boss, Ian Callum, the case against a leaper-bearing crossover seems strong. If a high-rider were to arrive from Jaguar, though, the article insinuates that it'd be more in line with the BMW X6 or upcoming X4 - sort of a coupe-based crossover. Like we said, grain of salt. If a Jag crossover is going to arrive soon, the upcoming Frankfurt Motor Show is the most likely locale for its debut. We'll find out in a few weeks.
