Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second generation Range Rovers were conceived before the BMW take-over, as was the agreement to use the BMW diesel engine. Sales were strong and it quickly out-sold its predecessor. Limited editions and special editions were introduced periodically. From mid-1988 the two V8 engines were re-worked to improve drivability. A minor facelift in 2000 was the last real change before production ceased in 2001. Neglected vehicles can be very expensive to rectify.

Models covered include: Vitesse, SE, HSE, TD, Overfinch, Callaway, Vogue.

Download or read book Land Rover Series III written by R. M. Clarke and published by Brooklands Book Limited. This book was released on 1998-11-02 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second major face-lift in the life of the Land Rover was introduced with the Series III model in 1971. Production figures cannot be confirmed but it is thought that around 440,000 were built between 1971 and 1985. As this was a bad time for British Leyland most of the profits went into the car division and few changes were made. Even when Land Rover became a separate operating division in 1978 it took until 1983 for a replacement to be produced. Not every market took to the new vehicles so the Series III remained in low volume production until 1985. This is a book of contemporary road and comparison tests, specifications and technical data, off-road reports, long terms tests, driver's reports, plus advice on buying a used example. Types covered include: 4 & 6-cylinder, 2.6 station wagon, SWB, V8, LWB, Diesel, Pick-up, 3/4 ton, 3S Station Wagon, 3-9D, County.

The low-profiles tires improved the handling. The trend continued when the original YJ gave way to the redesigned TJ model in 1996. Coil springs were used for comfort and airbags came as standard.

Book excerpt: A quarter of a century ago, the Land Rover Discovery defined at a stroke how traditional 4 x 4 all-terrain ability could co-exist with family-estate practicality at an affordable price.

Topics covered include the design and development of the original Discovery in the late 1980s, and the move into North America; the new 300Tdi engine and R380 gearbox of 1994, and the BMW takeover; Series II models of 1998-2004, and Land Rover's move from BMW to Ford; Discovery 3/'LR3' - 2004-2009, and the new TDV6 engine, developed by Jaguar; Discovery 4/'LR4' - the all-purpose family luxury car; special editions and derivatives of all four generations of Discovery, including Discoverys for the emergency services and the Camel Trophy and G4 Challenge competition vehicles. Superbly illustrated with 351 colour photographs.
