Well, technically speaking, and for the benefit of our American friends, this is the release of prices for the new Range Rover 2010MY. But it actually goes on sale, at least in the UK, in July 2009. Confusing! And what’s also a little confusing, especially if you are an avid and knowledgeable Land Rover buff, […]
Jaguar Land Rover open in India
Well, I suppose it was always going to happen. After all, Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), although still considered by most to be a traditional British car maker, is in fact owned by Indian Conglomerate Tata.

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 […]

So as with every other premium car maker, Land Rover is looking for ways to introduce a cheaper, cleaner and more economical car without damaging its brand image. The Land Rover LRX Concept, which was first revealed […]
Jaguar and Land Rover’s Big Chinese Takeaway
As we are only too well aware, car makers are having the most torrid of times. Massive drops in car sales in the UK (at least in new cars – UK used car sales are actually rising) means car makers’ cashflows are horrific. But it looks like there’s a white knight on the horizon for […]
Land Rover Discovery Scoops Top Awards
The Land Rover Discovery 3 is without doubt one of, if not the, best 4×4 (by far!) there is. Well built, enormously capable and, in its current iteration, a nice car to drive. And it has now won over 100 ‘Best’ awards worldwide. The latest award to be thrown the Disco’s way is Australia’s Best […]
Stop-Start Freelander on the way
