FRANKFURT, May 4 - Daimler Chief Executive Dieter Zetsche would be interested in a cooperation with carmakers Jaguar and Land Rover, according to a report in a German trade magazine. Zetsche could envision supplying the two brands with components, the magazine, auto motor und sport, quoted him as saying in comments published on Sunday. Jaguar and Land Rover are owned by India's Tata Motors Ltd , who acquired the two automakers from Ford Motor Co for $2.3 billion in March. Daimler owns around 7 percent in the Indian company. "If (chairman) Ratan Tata would approach us in regard to supplying components, we would be open to talks," Zetsche said, adding Daimler had no plans to increase its stake in Tata. Zetsche also said the company would take a decision o

When we enter our sixth decade, retirement, a bungalow in Eastbourne and plenty of time for hobbies loom large – but try telling that to Land Rover Defender SVX.The Land Rover Defender SVX is celebrating it and the firm’s 60th birthday by refusing to grow old gracefully. In fact, the firm is hitting back at suggestions that it should pension off the Defender by revealing the most thrilling version yet!The SVX is essentially a standard Defender 90 with some cosmetic updates. It’ll be offered as both a station wagon and the soft-top version seen here in prototype guise. This is the first time the roofless model has been sold in the UK for 20 years, and Land Rover has come up with an all-new hood that’s made from the sort of cloth you’d expect to see on a drop-top Jaguar, and stows

Much has been written about acquisition of luxury brands Jaguar and Land Rover by Tata motors. People, who are obsessed with super luxury cars, may be waiting eagerly to put their fingers across for these luxury brands in India. But, they will have to wait for at least five years to drive home Jaguar and Land Rover in India. So much so hype has created on JLR deal that many had thought Tata will introduce these brands in India may be within one or two years. In fact, Tata has no plans to launch these luxury brands in India for the next five to six years as it is now only concentrating to revamp these brands and roll out in USA and other western countries first. Tata might think of launching these cars in India after success of these cars in other countries. For Tata, success of these br

Dear Useless Men,The recent letter about raisin bread toasting faster than white bread reminded me of my own toast mystery. Why is it that, whenever I toast Tandoori Nan, my kitchen fills with these strange, foreign smells?

I thought I might have accidentally bought an Asian made toaster, but the bottom says union made in the USA.

The future looks bright for Jaguar and Land Rover – but what does it mean for you, the car buyer? Hot on the heels of last week’s £1billion sale to Tata, Auto Express has learned of the marques’ product plans for the next five years. The new strategy, put in place by former owner Ford, will see the Jaguar X-Type axed, a new XJ introduced and a big brother for the Land Rover Freelander launched. These moves play on both brands’ strengths and should help them diversify into new markets. As we revealed in Issue 1,001, next year Jaguar will unleash a BMW M5-rivalling XFR saloon, with a 500bhp 5.0-litre supercharged V8. Its engine will be offered in other Jag models in normally aspirated 380bhp form. At Land Rover, 2009 will bring a revised Range Rover and Range Rover Sport complete wi

DETROIT — Ford Motor Co. is selling its storied Jaguar and Land Rover businesses to India’s Tata Motors Ltd. in a deal that will net the U.S. automaker $1.7 billion — roughly a third of the price it paid for the two luxury brands. The deal announced Wednesday will expand the Indian carmaker’s reach around the globe and give Jaguar and Land Rover badly needed capital to update and expand their product lines. The sale had been in the works for months as cash-strapped Ford sought money to fund its turnaround plan. Tata will pay $2.3 billion for the British brands, but Ford will pay about $600 million into the Jaguar-Land Rover pension fund when the deal closes, Tata’s statement said. Ford bought Jaguar for $2.5 billion in 1989 and Land Rover for $2.7 billion in 2

Car giant Ford has sold its luxury UK-based car marques Jaguar and Land Rover to the Indian company Tata. We knew it was happening, but a deal is not a deal until it is signed, sealed and delivered. For those of us in Warwickshire and beyond, this is good news. It means Land Rover at Solihull continues.Tata is a huge business, created by entrepreneurial Indians. They obviously know something that the British and American car giants don't. Soon all the former brands run by the US/UK businesses will be in the Tata camp. They have global ambitions. And the best of luck to them. if they can do it, why not?I think that a country that has grown up with the need to keep battered Morris Oxford lookalikes on the road knows something about persistence as well as customer requirements.

Our spies have produced these exclusive images from top secret information.Based on the LRX concept cars that wowed the crowds at this year’s Detroit and Geneva motor shows, the newcomer is a sporty five-door SUV. It will slot into the range above the Freelander and go head-to-head with prestige brand rivals, including the upcoming BMW X1 and Audi Q5.The model will showcase technology aimed at increasing efficiency and boosting the marque’s green credentials. A stop-start system and a hybrid drivetrain are likely to appear as top brass attempt to reduce the overall CO2 emissions of the range.But the exterior w

Segments keep blending and niches keep growing. We don't complain, though, when the results are as stunning as the LRX concept. Land Rover brought a second version of the show car to Geneva in a sharp new black-and-silver paintjob that would be our first choice for arriving at the Academy Awards if they were held on the moon. Hopefully the LRX is less pie-in-the-sky than that, though, because we want one. Or two.As sinisterly handsome as the carbon LRX looks from afar, the devil is in the details, which include such subtle modern touches as brushed-aluminum badging, grille, roof, vents and the like. And we like. Check out the images in the gallery below to see for yourself, and the details in our previous post.

While the sale of the Jaguar and Land Rover has not been completed yet, Tata is preparing to make major changes at the companies. According to sources speaking with InsideLine, Tata purchased a 450-acre swath of land in Gurgaon, outside of New Delhi, for the explicit purpose of building Land Rovers. The source said that "... Jaguar will be spun off almost immediately." British labor unions supported Jaguar’s sale to Tata over rival bids from Indian automaker Mahindra & Mahindra and an American private equity firm. Both companies could eventually attempt to buy Jaguar from Tata should these reports become true.Ford announced Tata Motors was the preferred buyer of Jaguar and Land Rover back in January and the sale could be completed in the next few weeks.

Think Land Rover, and no doubt a chunky off-roader will spring to mind. For the past 60 years, the firm has produced some of the world’s finest mud-pluggers. From Defender to Disco­very, its 4x4s have majored on practicality and versatility, but have tended to relegate style to second place.Not this time! The LRX was the star of last month’s Detroit Motor Show. It’s a rakish concept representing a bold new design direction for the company as it gets ready to go head-to-head with the forthcoming BMW X1.The revolution isn’t limited to the exterior, either. Bosses at the firm claim this is set to be one of the greenest SUVs on the road.

We have already seen that the best and easiest way to market your product in today’s industry would be to relate it to the Apple wonder phone i.e. the Apple iPhone somehow and then wait for the word to spread around the globe. Land Rover has very cleverly done the same in the Land Rover LRX concept car. Land Rover LRX is a new concept car (that probably won’t ever see the production line) but will definitely boast something (a full-fledge iPhone integration) that is bound to attract a lot of people. It is hard to say whether the car will only have an iPhone slot or whether the iPhone will be electronically connected to the car thus controlling all its functions but if ever there is to be an iPhone integrated car it wouldn’t be so much amazing unless the luxurious car is fully controlled through the iPhone (which is more than just an ideal approach right now) Courtesy: IntoMobile Related Posts8 Most Stylish iPhone Concept DesignsGoogle Phone (G-Phone) Concept Desig

Ford Motor Co. unit will introduce a new car-based concept vehicle at the 2008 North American International Auto Show. It is more compact, lighter and “sustainable” than anything the venerable off-road specialist has engineered and built before. The 3-door LRX pushes Land Rover into new territory — pint-sized SUVs that are more car-like than truck-like. It is smaller than the LR2 — the smallest Land Rover available — and would be built on a new platform, the company says. It is just the latest example of how automakers worldwide are responding to pressure from consumers and government regulators to increase fuel efficiency, reduce carbon dioxide emissions and expand recycling efforts. Ford is in the process of selling Land Rover, and the new owner faces the prospect of investing heavily in alternative fuel technology. Europe is weighing more stringent caps on carbon dioxide emissions, and U.K. officials have already warned Land Rover may be forced out of

  Ford Motor Co. expects to complete the sale of its Jaguar and Land Rover nameplates by early next year at the latest, company executives say. Mark Truby, a company spokesman, said Friday that Ford cannot rule out the possibility of a deal for a buyer for the brands before the end of the year. However, Mark Fields, Ford?s president of the Americas, said it was possible the company might not be ready to announce a deal until the early part of next year. "Basically we want to make sure the buyer can uphold the tradition of these brands," Fields told reporters this week. The guessing in Detroit is that Tata Motors, the automotive branch of the diversified Indian manufacturer, and Chase & Company’s One Equity Partners are the leading contenders for Jaguar and Land Rover. The senior adviser at One Equity Partners is former Ford chief executive Jacques Nasser, who spent 3.3 billion dollars to acquire Land Rover from BMW. Ford acquired Jaguar from the British govern

You’re looking at Land Rover’s next big thing. The LRX concept making its debut at the Detroit show is small, sporty, and designed to be as luxurious as any Landie. It could go on sale in three years or so for more money than the 10-inch-longer LR2/Discovery. It’s Land Rover’s Mini Cooper or Audi TT says design director Gerry McGovern, showing off his first concept since leaving Lincoln. With a sports-car-fast windshield, low, sloping roofline, and wheels pushed out to the four corners, it looks longer than it is in the vacuum of a single-car studio showing. Note how the shoulderline rises faster than the beltline. The C-pillars have see-through openings leading into a rather squat rear window.

You're looking at Land Rover's next big thing. The LRX concept making its debut at the Detroit show is small, sporty, and designed to be as luxurious as any Landie. It could go on sale in three years or so for more money than the 10-inch-longer LR2/Discovery. It's Land Rover's Mini Cooper or Audi TT says design director Gerry McGovern, showing off his first concept since leaving Lincoln.With a sports-car-fast windshield, low, sloping roofline, and wheels pushed out to the four corners, it looks longer than it is in the vacuum of a single-car studio showing.

...Kidnappers, Criminals, Drug Cartels, Come On OverThe information contained in these articles absolutely convinces me that we MUST secure the United States border. If we expect to continue to live as a sovereign nation, we cannot ignore this problem any longer.It is no longer about innocent Mexicans coming to the US to work. We can and must make it easier for them to come here legally! This is about criminals, drug cartels and terrorists given free reign to come in and out of our country. I fear that the American people, especially those in border towns, will not continue to put up with the anarchy on the border and the unwillingness of our federal government to protect us.Kidnapping, Murder Sweep Nuevo LaredoNuevo Laredo Patrol (video)Blood and Glass Everywhere (just after the video was made)Terrorists Target Army Base - In Arizona (page 1) (page 2)In response to the last article, the FBI has said that the leads did not amount to anything.

OverviewForty-some years ago, a famous Land Rover magazine ad tallied the record number of times one of these stalwart vehicles had been gored by a Rhinoceros: "If you know of a Land Rover that has been gored more times, or by more Rhinoceroses, please contact us. . . ." The ad was deliberate camp, and a blatant parody of a famous Rolls-Royce ad of the same period. But its point was clear, and essentially true: If you needed to drive where Rhinoceros encounters were a genuine possibility, then the Land Rover was your baby. Whereas if quiet highway cruising was your goal, well then, old boy, you might do as well to shop elsewhere.Four decades later, Rhinoceroses are still rarely encountered in upmarket suburbs; whereas comfortable, competent, even sporty SUV-like vehicles such as the BMW X5, Cadillac SRX, Infiniti FX, Mercedes-Benz M-Class, and Porsche Cayenne frequently are. And competition from these vehicles, more than the occasional large horn driven angrily through an aluminum door

OverviewThe Range Rover has been extensively revised for the 2007 model year. The cabin has been redesigned for increased comfort and ease of use and new safety features have been added. Off-road and on-road capability have been enhanced with Land Rover's new Terrain Response system, which makes venturing away from pavement even easier than before. The Range Rover benefitted from new engines and transmissions for 2006.These changes, which coincide with the 20th anniversary of Range Rover's presence in the American automotive market, continue to improve on what remains the ultimate luxury sport-utility. This top-of-the-line Land Rover offers authentic all-terrain capability combined with a beautiful European-flavor cabin and the latest in safety features.The 2007 Range Rover is quieter and more comfortable and easier to operate. The cabin benefits from new switchgear, revised air conditioning, redesigned seats and increased noise-reduction measures. Redesigned airbags further improve

OverviewThe LR3 in an impressive achievement. While other mid-luxury SUVs are surrendering off-road competence, the LR3 continues to combine responsive on-road performance with go-anywhere off-road capability in a single comfortable, safe and secure vehicle.The LR3 offers the competence of the Range Rover and some of its luxurious feel. Underway, the LR3 feels composed and secure, with little noise and vibration transmitted into the cabin. The brakes are excellent. The LR3 incorporates the latest in electronic systems, which select the best combination of traction, power, gearing, and braking to suit any type of terrain and surface, to put serious off-road trekking within the reach of most enthusiasts. Simply twisting a knob to Grass/Gravel/Snow, Mud/Ruts, Sand, or Rock Crawl optimizes the settings for the LR3's mind-boggling array of electronic controls and traction aids. In short, the LR3 can go just about anywhere on the planet. And it does it in style.The LR3 has a spacious, airy

OverviewIf the Land Rover LR2 doesn't knock the socks off of shoppers for an SUV of this size and price, nothing will. It offers more content than they have reason to expect, compared to what's out there. Think of it as a baby Range Rover Sport, for at least 20 grand less. It costs about $8,000 less than the next Land Rover up the scale, the LR3, and has a more powerful and smoother engine: an all-new, high-tech, inline six-cylinder built by Volvo, mated to a sophisticated six-speed automatic transmission.The styling is clean and handsome, and the interior roomy, with leather seating surfaces, wood trim, a panoramic sunroof, fold-flat rear seats, quality sound system and all the power stuff as standard equipment. The body structure is second to none in its rigidity and safety, with liberal use of ultra-high-strength steel in the door beams and other places. The list of electronic safeguards goes on and on. ABS, EBD, EBA, DSC, ARM, CBC, HDC, GRC (they're all explained below; each cou

The Kobold Watch Company was commissioned by Land Rover to design an exclusive clock for the dashboard of the brand’s premium vehicle, the Range Rover. In addition to the clocks, which will be mounted in the 20th Anniversary Edition Range Rover, a set of his and hers Kobold wristwatches will accompany each vehicle. Kobold’s Range Rover 20th Anniversary Edition watches are crafted from aerospace grade titanium featuring a polished, high-gloss finish. The polished titanium cases represent a premium over the case finish of conventional titanium watches, which are usually sandblasted to a matte finish. The watches are powered by modified ETA 2892 movements. Furthermore, Land Rover also commissioned Kobold to manufacture a series of Land Rover-branded watches, made available only to distinguished retailers and senior Land Rover executives.(c) Europa Star Magazine

I really expected to like this novel a lot. I'll go a step farther and say that I really wanted to like this novel - and that's probably why I'm a little disappointed in it. According to the New York Times, Red Rover is a very personal novel to its author, Deirdre McNamer, a story that she at first intended to tell as nonfiction but decided to flesh out as fiction in order to "to create a
