A partnership has been renewed.  What great information to hear and it involves Jaguar, Land Rover, and Wallenius Wilhelmsen Logistics (WWL).  The car brands have been doing business with each other since the early 1980′s.  WWL is responsible for shipping Jaguars and Land Rovers overseas from Southampton in the UK to North America and other countries.  Thus, you can thank them for the beautiful XK or Land Rover Sport waiting for you at your Madison dealer.

In 2010 WWL will ship around 45,000 Jaguar and Land Rover models across the Atlantic to several ports.  These include Baltimore, Brunswick, Port Hueneme in the United States; Halifax in Canada and Fremantle, Melbourne and Port Kembla in Australia; and Auckland in New Zealand.  Both companies will be working together to make sure their policies are in tune with lessening any negative impact on the environment.

It’s kind of cool to see where your new and used cars Madison come from.  Now that we’ve moved across the ocean from port to port, let’s see what’s on tap at  your Madison dealer.

Currently, there are many new models for sale.  For example, you have the 2010 Jaguar XF Premium Luxury model.  It is a beautiful luxury car with many great amenities.  It features a 5.0 L, V8 engine and an automatic transmission.  Inside the car you will find a handy navigation system, rear cupholders (making those backseat drivers very happy!), and many great audio features.

If you’re in the market for something bigger, consider the 2010 Land Rover LR2.  It has a sportier design, along with some awesome off road capabilities if you’ve got that adventurous gene in you!   Powertrain wise, it offers 230 HP and four wheel drive.  The engine is a 3.2 L that gives 234 pound feet of torque.  Fuel economy wise, highway driving is around 22 mpg.  Obviously, it’s not as great as a used cars Madison sedan, but after all, SUV’s aren’t known for that!  Instead, it’ll offer a ton of passenger and cargo space that a smaller auto cannot.

Don’t forget to bring your Jaguar or LR in for their Madison oil change every 3,000 miles or so. Your auto will thank you!

The outfit responsible for customizing Range Rovers, Overfinch, is teaming up with Holland and Holland, a rifle and shotgun company in Britain.  They are going to make this SUV one fascinating ride!

Characteristics both inside and outside the vehicle will be very noticeable!  The new Range Rover will come with tires that are all season and great in mud and snow.  There will be treatments coming special from Overfinch, such as upgrades on headlamp, tail light , and bumper. Cool features that the staff will notice when you come in for your Madison oil change.

The interior trim and seating is elegant and luxurious.  High-quality leather, with contrasting stitching is used all over the vehicle.  You’ll find it on doors, seating, upper and lower dashboard, even in the cubby box.

Another amenity Land Rover can brag out is the “cupboard” that has 3 drawers.  Like some antique wood-crafted cupboards, the LR’s has hand crafted veneers that mimic the woodwork used in other areas of the SUV.  These drawers do not come empty, however.  In them, a buyer can find “Holland & Holland crystal tumblers and flutes, shotguns, a cleaning kit for them as well as cartridges and the bag in which to carry them”.  Very cool if you’re a gun/hunting enthusiast

I saved perhaps the best feature for last….The Rand Rover (maybe making to your Madison dealer?), comes with a “bar” and alcohol. A rear console area that can fit 4-people has a built in microfridge.  The alcohol provided is good stuff and includes: Pol Roger champagne, Balvenie single malt whiskey, Hendrick’s small-batch gin, and Ivan the Terrible vodka, with Willow Spring water.  And, as part of the premium price you’ll pay, Overfinch will replenish all of these for a full year!

Only 100 of these bad boys are going to made per year and they will run for around $190K in the U.S.  If you are interested in finding out more about purchasing one, head to your Madison dealer!

The study was conducted by Quality Planning, a company that validates policyholder info for auto insurers, based on data gathered between August 2007 and September 2008. Other vehicles that made the ranks were the Chevrolet Suburban, the 2005 Buick Park Avenue, and the Mazda6.

The XJ is Jaguar’s top of the line model, best known for pampering its occupants with traditional British luxury and a smooth ride. The XJ has been called the “most beautiful” by The Detroit News. Indeed, all the upright lines are discarded for a low, sleek roofline, giving the car a more avant-garde silhouette. The interior boasts a modern look with a leather headliner, upgraded leather seats and laser-inlaid wood trim and new custom trim options. And a new dash panel without traditional dials uses a large high-definition screen to display all the usual gauge functions, while also changing colors subtly to indicate performance driving modes with a soft red glow. Sleek design, high-tech performance, and it won’t get you pulled over? Yes, please.

The XJ is also a favorite of Jay Leno and Jay-Z, the latter of who featured the car in his latest music video. But you don’t have to be a late-night or hip-hop star (or named Jay) to enjoy the XJ’s luxury and performance.
