Jaguar Land Rover owners Tata have been waiting for the UK Government to underwrite loans from the European Investment Bank to help ease the pain of the current economic recession. But Lord Mandelson and his minions seem to be procrastinating over the deal. Reports have indicated that the biggest stumbling block has been the Government’s […]
Rolls Royce Sponsors Michael Jackson Funeral!
It’s a bit of a tabloid headline – apologies. And it’s not strictly true. But it is true that a Rolls Royce and Land Rover dealer – Land Rover Encino – supplied a couple of Black Rolls Royce Phantoms and a fleet of ten Black Range Rovers for the use of the Jackson family and […]
Range Rover Sport & Discovery 4 (LR4) – UK Prices
It’s almost three months since Land Rover unveiled the new Range Rover Sport and Discovery 4 (LR4) at the New York Motor Show. They managed to release prices for the new Range Rover – which was also revealed at the New York Motor Show – early last month, but they’ve only just got round to […]

Land Rover Discovery 4 (LR4) – an English car in New York
Yes, I know. Land Rover is now owned by Tata, an Indian Company. But in all but the nationality of its owner this is quintessentially an ‘English’ car and, apart from the Defender, as ‘Land Rover’ a Land Rover as there has been. Sure, it passes a nod to the modern comforts and practicalities buyers […]
New Range Rover Sport in New York
Lots going on for Land Rover today in New York, with the unveiling of three new models; the Range Rover, The Range Rover Sport and the Land Rover Discovery 4 (LR4). We covered the Range Rover earlier (and the Disco’s next!), but this is the news on the RRS. Land Rover are working hard to […]
