Podcasts about Land Rover

Land Rover's legendary Defender nameplate made its return to the United States just a few years ago. This off-road legend was barred from the United States since it departed before the turn of the century, and made an even bigger space for its off-road-focused competition. In its return, the Defender might be softer than its Series and Defender predecessors. Its increased ride comfort might make your commute easier, but the Defender still offers plenty of off-roading chops if you find yourself out in the wild. Powering this Defender 110 is a turbocharged 3.0-liter straight-six that works alongside its mild-hybrid system to throw 395 hp and 406 lb-ft of torque to the wheels through an eight-speed automatic transmission. On this episode of Quick Spin, Autoweek executive editor Tom Murphy puts the '23 Land Rover Defender 110 through its paces. Murphy takes you on a tour of this off-road-focused Land Rover and highlights some of his favorite features. Later, Murphy takes you along for a live drive review. Adding some context, Murphy chats with host Wesley Wren about the Land Rover Defender's sales, competition, and more. The pair also discuss the Defender in the greater context of Land Rover's history. Closing the show, the pair breaks down what makes this Defender special.

La historia del automóvil está llena de mitos y curiosidades… y de mentiras e inexactitudes. ¡Vamos a reescribir la historia! Te hemos traído 10 mitos ó 10 datos históricos, más un “Bonus”, que son falsos… para que luego presumas con tus amigos lo mucho que sabes de coches… sobre todo con tus amigos que no ven Garaje Hermético. 1. James Dean: El coche “maldito”. Vamos con la parte que es verdad: Dean circulaba a gran velocidad y en el cruce de la ruta 41 con la 466 impactó con un Ford Custom Tudor. El conductor del Ford, un tal Donald Turnupspeed, tuvo varias fracturas, pero Dean moría camino del hospital. La leyenda cuenta que “Little Bastard” fue comprado un amigo de Dean, George Barris, y que al cargarlo en la grúa se rompió el cable y partió las dos piernas a un mecánico; y luego que el coche se despiezo en partes y todos los que usaron elementos de este coche tuvieron graves accidentes… 2. Alfasud: Acero ruso. El Alfasud es un modelo injustamente tratado por la historia, porque fue muy innovador en su momento y se puede decir que creó una categoría. Pero hay múltiples “leyendas negras” sobre este modelo. La que más gracia me hace es la del “acero ruso” que cuenta que este coche no tenía la calidad deseada porque estaba hecho con acero ruso de mala calidad proveniente del achatarramiento de las armas soviéticas. 3. Benz MotorWagen: El primer automóvil. Te invito a un ejercicio: Pon en Google “primer automóvil” y te saldrá que es el Benz 1 Motorwagen de 1885. ¡FALSO! Primer automóvil de motor térmico. Porque en 1834, el profesor holandés Sibrandus Stratingh y su asistente Christopher Becker crearon un automóvil eléctrico alimentado por baterías no recargables. Incluso hubo intentos anteriores, como el del químico escocés Robert Andersson en 1832… 4. Porsche: Sinónimo de éxito en Le Mans. La primera participación de Porsche en la 24 Horas de Le Mans fue en 1951, con un 356SL. Pero la primera victoria absoluta no llegó hasta 19 años después, cuando en 1970 con el Porsche 917 KH, ocupó el primer puesto con Hans Herrmann y Richard Attwood. 5. El Escarabajo: Un diseño de Porsche. No me voy a extender porque hicimos un vídeo reciente sobre el tema donde demostramos que Ferdinand Porsche copió a Joseph Ganz y a Tatra… 6. Usar aluminio en el Land Rover: Una genialidad. Cuando en 1947 los hermanos Wilks tuvieron la brillante idea de producir un 4x4 barato no solo pensado en un uso militar, sino en un vehículo sencillo y copiaron el Jeep se encontraron con un problema: La escasez de acero. Por pura casualidad la carrocería del Land Rover se hizo de aluminio, porque era más barato y fácil de encontrar. 7. El Citroën Traction Avant: Primer tracción delantera. Si decimos que el Traction Avant es el primer coche de tracción delantera fabricado en grandes series, sería cierto. Pero si quitamos “grandes” y decimos “el primero fabricado en serie” pues el falso. El peculiar Bucciali TAV-6 de 1922 fue el primer tracción delantera y se presentó en el Salón de París de 1922 tenía entre otras muchas, innovaciones, un sistema de tracción delantera, algo “delicado” y que fue su “Talón de Aquiles” … 8. Ford T: Primer coche fabricado “en serie”. Otra vez tengo que decir, ¡FALSO! Fue el Oldsmobile Curved Dash de 1901, un modelo técnicamente mucho menos adelantado que el Ford T que contaba con un motor monocilíndrico de 1.560 cm3 y alcanzaba la terrorífica velocidad de 32 km/h. 9. VW Escarabajo: Vendidos por “suscripción”. Ya sabéis que el VW, el “Coche del pueblo” nace con la idea, supuestamente, de motorizar a la clase media alemana. Hitler mandó construir una fábrica, incluso una ciudad que aún hoy existe, Wolfsburgo, y para comercializar el coche lanzó una especie de cartillas de ahorro. Lo cierto es que ni antes ni por supuesto durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial se entregó un solo coche a un particular, todos fueron a parar a manos del ejercito o del Estado Alemán.. 10. Coches eléctricos: Lo “último”. Me río de la “modernidad” de los coches eléctricos. Ya habéis visto que el primer coche fue eléctrico, pero os doy otro dato: En el año 1900 la cuota de mercado de los eléctricos en los EE.UU. de Norteamérica era de más del 25 por ciento. ¡Bonus! Los híbridos: Un invento reciente. Depende… ¡y de que depende! De lo que consideres reciente. ¿100 años es reciente? Porque hace más de 120 años un jovencito llamado Ferdinand Porsche, con solo 24 añitos, ya diseñó un modelo híbrido que fue todo un éxito. De ese coche se vendieron 300 unidades desde 1900 hasta 1906.

Bristol was a car company for 75 years but sold fewer cars than the number of shirts you probably own. They were also universally lauded as excellent vehicles. But also terribly ugly. Were they actually any good, are they worth anything now, and is Steve's Land Rover already broken?

On this week's show, Ike and Steve are joined by Alex Massey and Rob Sprason, the vintage Land Rover fanatics behind the Series One parts supplier, CKD Shop. From new old stock to exacting reproductions of original parts, they have it all. This episode is guaranteed to be riveting…

El Land Cruiser nace como una copia del genuino Jeep Willys Overland… una copia fiel. ¿No te lo crees? Si pones uno junto al otro, resulta evidente y es lo que vamos a hacer para ti. Desde ese lejano 1951 hasta hoy el Land Cruiser no ha dejado de evolucionar y de mejorar, superando al original y convirtiéndose en uno de los pocos coches presentes en los 5 continentes. En el consultorio de este podcast os voy a contar por qué nació este canal… Pero, ¡hablemos del Land Cruiser! Porque este otro vídeo que tenía ganas de hacer y que tendrá unas cuantas anécdotas. Y como las historias deben arrancar desde el principio, no nos vamos al año 1951 sino a finales de los años 40. Para entender el nacimiento de este modelo hay que conocer la situación de Japón en esos años. El 15 de agosto de 1945 el Imperio Japonés firma su rendición incondicional en el USS Missouri: Japón se convierte en un país ocupado… Ocupado, destruido y desmoralizado. Los EE.UU. de Norteamérica ocuparon el país hasta 1952. Las ciudades y la industrias estaban destruidas. La tasa de suicidios se disparó en un país donde en el ejército no existe la palabra rendición y donde el suicidio, por cuestiones culturales, se considera algo digno… En 1950 estalla la guerra en Corea, cuando Corea del Norte invade Corea del Sur y Japón se convierte en una base de reavituallamiento para los norteamericanos, lo cual supone un espaldarazo a su industria y, especialmente, aumenta la producción de camiones destinados al ejército. Pero además de camiones se necesitaba un vehículo ligero, sencillo, barato y todo terreno ¿os suena? Y en 1951 nace el primer prototipo del Toyota Land Cruiser, una copia del Jeep, con chasis de un camión ligero y motor de 3,4 litros de gasolina… No hace falta ser ingeniero ni siquiera experto para ver que el Toyota es una copia muy fiel del Jeep. Es más, ¿sabéis cómo se llamaba inicialmente este coche? Jeep BJ… más claro, agua. Comienza la fabricación en serie del coche cuando Willys Company denuncia a Toyota. Esto tiene su gracia: Lo denuncia por el uso del nombre, no tanto por copiarlo. Esto es una opinión, pero parece que Willys no consideraba en esos momentos un rival peligroso a Toyota… ¡qué gran error! Es entonces, en 1954, cuando Toyota cambia la denominación y pasa a llamarlo “Land Cruiser”, un nombre que podríamos traducir como “Crucero terrestre” … me gusta, tanto en inglés como en español. Y comienza la evolución, rapidísima, de este modelo. El Serie 20 era mucho más que el paso del coche del mundo “civil” al “militar”, se mejora el confort y los faros pasan de las aletas a la parrilla central, dando lugar a una estética muy particular y que duraría muchos años. El Land Cruiser más bonito, con más personalidad, el que encumbró este modelo a la fama, la tercera generación, la llamada Serie 40 nace… ¡en 1960! ¡Qué buena cosecha la de ese año! De este modelo hubo multitud de variantes, con distintas distancias entre ejes, distintos motores y techo duro o de lona. A mí la versión de techo de chapa, con las esquinas acristaladas y redondeadas y los faros delanteros “juntitos”, un poco al estilo de los primeros Land Rover, me volvía loco… ¡me sigue volviendo loco! Y el Land Cruiser crece… y no parará de crecer, al menos en las versiones de batallas larga y cuatro puertas laterales. El FJ55 llegado en 1967 ofrece una versión con distancia entre ejes de 2,70 m y carrocerías más modernas… pero no más bonitas. En este Land Cruiser se abandonan las dos puertas traseras de acceso al maletero… se abandonan relativamente, porque esta opción coexiste con un portón que a su vez tiene el cristal descendente… una opción que a mí me gusta mucho y que probé por primera vez un Toyota 4Runner que, por consejo mío, compraron unos amigos… y que se podría considerar un derivado del Land Cruiser y, igual que él, indestructible. Hasta 1984 los Land Cruiser que podías comprar eran muchísimo mejores que el original, pero no dejaban de ser de algún modo un derivado del original y esto cambia con la serie 70, que conserva el nombre… y poco más. Una de las decisiones que se toman, acertadas, es hacer dos líneas distintas de Land Cruiser, una para profesionales denominada Heavy Duty y otra más cercana a un coche de turismo o Light Duty. Este modelo es mucho más refinado que su antecesor, por dentro, por fuera, en su mecánica… y le tengo especial cariño, pues mi primer contacto con los Land Cruiser, ya como probador, fue con este modelo, con el 250BJ73 “Made in Portugal”. Llevaba motor VM de 4 cilindros y 2,5 litros con 114 CV y los fabricaba Salvador Caetano en Portugal. El 1996 llega la serie 90, con unos acabados impecables, refinado, confortable, como siempre indestructible, nada barato… pero responsable de que, hasta hoy, este modelo compita sin complejos con los modelos “Premium” de otras marcas. Bueno, sin complejos o superándolos. Lo bueno de este Toyota es que se ha convertido en un coche confortable, incluso rápido, con una imagen inmejorable… pero sin renunciar a dos características claves: Fiabilidad y prestaciones en campo. A la serie 90 seguirían las series 100, 120, 150… ¡hasta la 300! Con motor V8 y más premium que nunca. Siempre manteniendo las cualidades que han hecho a este coche un coche único… por una cualidad o característica que me he dejado para el final… Muchas marcas han pretendido hacer un coche “Mundial”, que satisfaga las exigencias de todos los mercados, un espíritu con el que nació el Dacia Logan, el Fiat Palio y algunos modelos de Ford… y no funcionó, porque cada mercado tiene unos requisitos singulares. Pero el Land Cruiser si la ha conseguido. Ya sea como coche militar, en manos de ONG´s, de terroristas, de exploradores, en competición, en recorridos por caminos de todo el mundo, en países donde no hay carreteras o en urbanizaciones de lujo en países donde sí hay carreteras… lo cierto es que el Land Cruiser en un fenómeno único… que ha superado al original…

This week on the Underpowered Hour, we've got a lot of business to catch up on!  First up, DriveTribe has done a video about our friend Julian Schoolheifer's restoration of the very first production Land Rover, JUE 477. If you haven't listened to our interview with Julien, be sure to go back a few episodes and check out our replay to get the whole story.  Link below to the video we talk about.  Next up, there's a unique Red Camel Trophy car up on Bring a Trailer; the guys recorded this a few hours before the auction closed, so Ike and Steve debate whether the fact that it is red helps or hinders the collectible nature of the vehicle. (Check out the BAT listing below, and click through the comments to find out what happened when the auction closed). And word on the street is that a new, mallet, all electric Defender has been confirmed for 2027. Will it be called Defender Sport? Why not, there's already a Range Rover Sport and a Discovery Sport. Seems fitting, even if Bronco has jumped on that bandwagon too.  Then, we've got a favorite segment we call “Love It, Can't Have It”, and this time we're drooling over the German market Surf Defender in coveted Marine Blue. Consider this our official petition to make that color available in the rest of the world. Who knew that the luxury SUV market in Germany was synonymous with surfing?

Sin duda es un icono del coche de lujo británico. Pero sin rodeos: Aston Martin está viva de milagro. Ha estado muchas veces en quiebra. Primero la salvaron un Conde y una Lady británica. Más tarde fue vendida por 100 libras a un consorcio bancario, luego a un empresario del petróleo, después a un armador griego y por fin cayó en manos de Ford, que fiel a su costumbre, casi acaba con ella. Finalmente, un consorcio de inversores, entre ellos Toto Wolf, Sabastian Vettel, el rico farmacéutico suizo Ernesto Bertarelli y, como no, Lawrence Stroll… Lionel Martin y Robert Bamford, fundadores de la compañía Bamford & Martin, construyeron un coche especial para la "Aston Hill", una popular carrera británica. No dejaba de ser un “invento” con chasis Isotta Fraschini de 1908 y un motor Coventry Climax. Pero el coche gustó tanto que decidieron fabricar algunas unidades para la venta. Pero llega la Primera Guerra Mundial y tras ella, la primera quiebra. Pero llega la “primera” quiebra de muchas… y Bamford decide abandonar el barco. ¡Hace falta dinero! Y aparece nada menos que un Conde, el Conde Louis Zborowski, gran aficionado a las carreras, no mal piloto, pero sin dinero suficiente. Y es entonces cuando aparece otra entusiasta y millonaria británica, Lady Dorothea Charnwood, que la compra, la salva y pone al frente a su hijo, John Benson. Parecía que los problema financieros se habían acabado… pero no. En 1925 las penurias seguían y Lionel Martin, uno de los fundadores, vende su parte a Augustus Bertelli acaudalado piloto e ingeniero, que se puso al frente de la empresa. Es en estos tiempos cuando, recordando los triunfos en la Aston Hill, deciden llamar a la empresa Aston Martin. Pero los problemas financieros continuaban. Aparecen Lance Pridroux-Brune que aportó dinero para después vender la empresa a Sir Arthur Sutherland, quien decidió, seguramente con acierto, abandonar las carreras para dedicarse a la construcción de deportivos de calle. Pero si la Primera Guerra Mundial estuvo a punto de acabar con la marca, pues con la Segunda pasó lo mismo… hacía falta un milagro… y el milagro llegó. Muchos modelos de la marca llevan aún la denominación DB en honor a David Brown, apasionado de los coches de calidad y propietario de una empresa fabricante de engranajes y máquinas herramientas. Pero… las deudas se acumulan. Y David Brown vende la empresa al consorcio bancario Company Developments por 101 libras esterlinas… pero Aston Martin, por enésima vez, entra en suspensión de pagos. Aston Martin la compra un consorcio “americano canadiense” con Alan Curtis al frente, que la revenden a un empresario petrolífero, Victor Gauntlett que al llegar la crisis del petróleo la vende a un armador griego, el rival de Onassis, Peter Livanos… Pero hubo un momento que Ford quiso convertirse en un referente de las marcas Premium a base de comprar y comprar. Compraron Jaguar, Land Rover, Volvo y Aston Martin. En 2020 el “Muchimillonario” Lawrence Stroll se va de compras, adquiere un equipo de F1 y una marca de coches… Aston Martin. Se emitieron pagares, se llegó a un acuerdo tecnológico con Mercedes, pero faltaba estabilidad en la gestión y en las finanzas… y aparece el “otro” salvador de la marca… yo haría modelos de Aston Martin con las siglas DB y con las siglas LS. Crea en 2020 un heterogéneo grupo de inversores que se hacen propietarios de la marca, entre ellos muchos implicados en la F1 como Toto Wolf y Sabastian Vettel; otros millonarios como el suizo magnate del mundo de la farmacia Ernesto Bertarellí; empresas del mundo de la automoción, como Mercedes y el grupo chino Geely; o el gobierno de Arabia Saudita. Pero con Lawrence Stroll a la cabeza. Aston Martin ha anunciado un aluvión de novedades para 2023, por supuesto entre ella SUV, coche híbridos y eléctricos, como no podía ser de otra manera. Y con tecnología Mercedes, un socio que aporta algo de lo que la firma británica tiene un verdadero déficit. ¿Tiene futuro Aston Martin? Visto lo visto, es una marca superviviente y, pese a todo, con una magnífica imagen. Y con futuro en la F1. Así que yo creo que sí. Coche del día. Pensarás que voy a elegir el DB4 o el DB5, ¡pues te equivocas! He elegido al Aston Martin DBS Superleggera que aparece en la película “Sin tiempo para morir” de 2021. Una reedición del DBS original realizado por Carrozeria Touring, precioso, con motor V12 de 725 CV con una velocidad máxima de 339 km/h.

¡Hoy toca podcast de rarezas! ¡Pero algunas muy raras y coches que, para muchos, seguramente serán desconocidos: Japoneses, rusos, daneses… ¡Hay de todo! Y es que siempre que se habla de los coches de la Segunda Guerra Mundial solo se recuerda al Jeep y al Kubelwagen… ¡Pues hay muchos más! 1. Dodge WC-6 Command Car. Comenzamos por un norteamericano, un coche que me encanta: El Dodge WC6. El estallido de la Segunda Guerra Mundial supuso un impulso a toda la industria norteamericana, pues el gobierno necesitaba de todos y se firmaban contratos alegremente. Todos los constructores de automóviles se beneficiaron de esto, incluida Chrysler Corporation, que construyo desde motores de tanques a los cañones Bofors de 40 mm … pero sobre todo este Dodge WC Command Car. 2. GAZ 61-73. También los rusos diseñaron sus propios modelos militares. El GAZ 61 fue diseñado en 1938 por un tal V.A. Grachev a partir de un modelo más antiguo, el GAZ-M21. La producción no comenzó hasta 1940. La primera versión, realizada entre 1940 y 1941, fue un modelo de 4 puertas tipo Phaeton propulsado por un motor de 3.485 cm3 de 6 cilindros y 85 CV de potencia y una velocidad máxima de 100 km/h. Era el modelo utilizado principalmente por los comandantes del ejército soviético en 1941. 3. GAZ 67 (Copia del Willys). Si buscas este modelo en Wikipedia pone que “Era el equivalente soviético del Jeep Willys” … pero mi opinión es otra, no era un “equivalente”, era una copia. Contaba con un motor GAZ de gasolina, 4 cilindros en línea, 3.280 cm3 y 54 CV de cilindrada, con cambio de 4 velocidades y tracción a ambos ejes. 4. Horch 901 KFZ. Una marca alemana, casi olvidada hoy día, pero que producía coches de una grandísima calidad. El Horch 901 al principio estaba destinado a transportar a los funcionarios del Estado Mayor. Pero con el tiempo y por su demostrada fiabilidad se utilizó como ambulancia para el transporte de heridos, vehículos de comunicaciones, tractores de artillería ligera, furgonetas de suministro y soldados es un vehículo militar todoterreno utilizado por las fuerzas armadas alemanas de 1937 a 1945. 5. Humber FWD HU “Box”. Antes del Land Rover ya había modelos TT británicos, como el caso de este FWD HU producido por la empresa Humber entre 1941-1945. Hubo versiones ambulancia y camión todoterreno ligero de 400 kg de carga. Nació como los demás para cubrir las necesidades del ejercito tras el estallido de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Tiene el honor de ser el único automóvil todoterreno para pasajeros con tracción en las cuatro ruedas producido en Gran Bretaña durante la guerra. 6. IJA Type 95 Kurogane. ¡Vamos con un coche japonés! Y más de lo mismo: El Vehículo de Reconocimiento Tipo 95 más conocido como Kurogane, fue un automóvil desarrollado cuando se comprobó la necesidad de contar con un vehículo de este tipo en el Ejercito japonés. Se construyeron un total de 4.800 unidades en sus diferentes configuraciones de carrocería. 7. Laffly V15T. Tras un japones, un francés… Un modelo por el que confieso que tengo debilidad. Aunque para algunos más que un coche se trata de un tractor ligero 4x4 francés utilizado sobre todo para remolcar el cañón antitanque Hotchkiss de 25 mm. Tengo mucha y buena info de este coche, que merecería un video para el solo. 8. Mercedes-Benz KFZ.1 Type 170 VK. No podía faltar algún modelo de la marca favorita del “Führer”. He elegido el Mercedes-Benz W136 o 170 V inicialmente destinado al mercado civil. Pero su simplicidad de construcción, fiabilidad y buen comportamiento en todo tipo de carreteras lo convirtieron en el modelo Mercedes más popular en la década de 1930. 9. Steyr 270 1500 A. ¡Un modelo diseñado nada menos que por el genio Ferdinand Porsche! tres variantes: Una para el transporte de militares, otra para los altos mandos militares (Kfz 21) y finalmente la que he elegido, el KFZ 70 Mannschaftswagen o el Steyr 270 1500ª, algo así como un camión ligero y que fue el más producido. Contaba con un motor Steyr de gasolina, refrigerado por aire, de ocho cilindros en V y una cilindrada de 3517 cm3 con una caja de cambios de cuatro marchas hacia adelante y una hacia atrás. 10. Tempo G1200. Hemos dejado para final el que probablemente sea el modelo más raro de esta selección. El Tempo G1200 es un verdadero TT ligero, donde la "G" significa Geländewagen. Se produjeron solo unas 1200 unidades y se utilizaron principalmente en Suecia. Era un modelo muy original, con suspensión independiente y la tracción en las cuatro ruedas gracias a dos motores bicilíndricos de dos tiempos refrigerados por aire. Coche del día. Entre los que me he dejado fuera esta un camión ligero que me encanta, el Krupp L2H 143 KFZ 70. Esta marca alemana me encanta y hizo una camiones excelentes y muy bonitos.

Episode 122 James here! Welcome back to another episode of the PowerWorks podcast joining me as always is Glenn Power from PowerWorks Garage. We're here to dive deep into the world of cars, sharing practical advice and engaging discussions that'll keep you revved up. Make sure to subscribe and hit that notification bell, so you never miss an episode! In our bustling "shoe box studio" at PowerWorks Garage, we've got some incredible topics to explore today. Let me share a personal experience with you, folks. Remember when we discussed radiators and coolants in one of our previous podcasts? Not long after, I encountered a coolant leak in my car. It was a wake-up call, reminding me that those plastic tanks attached to radiators can develop cracks over time, leading to annoying leaks. It's a common issue, but one that's often overlooked. Now, let's get down to business and talk about handling coolant leaks because, trust me, you don't want to mess around with this. Glenn, my man, take it away. Glenn emphasizes the importance of strict adherence to the rules when dealing with coolant leaks. He warns about the dangers of trying to top up coolant by the roadside. Opening the hood in such scenarios? Not a good idea, folks. It can lead to additional risks. Glenn advises that if your car starts overheating, turn it off immediately to prevent further damage. Safety first, always! Here's a valuable insight from yours truly, folks. If your car overheats, please make sure to place a reflective triangle safe from your vehicle before even thinking about opening the hood. Safety should be our top priority. You can just pull over to the right side of the road and turn off that engine immediately. Glenn chimes in with deeper knowledge of the repercussions of multiple overheating incidents. He shares a Land Rover case where overheating led to head gasket failure. And let me tell you, that's a nightmare. If not addressed promptly, it can even lead to hydraulicking the engine. Trust me, you don't want that bill! Repairing a head gasket can cost you a pretty penny, folks. But fear not! We're here to help you avoid those hefty repair costs. By following the correct protocol when dealing with an overheating car, you can save yourself from major headaches down the road. So, if you're as passionate about cars as we are and want to gain insights into car maintenance, repairs, and everything automobile-related, tune in to the PowerWorks podcast with James and Glenn. Join us on our car-filled journey, and let's rev up our engines together! That's all for today, folks. Stay safe on the road, and we'll catch you in the next episode of the PowerWorks podcast.

THANKS TO ANDREW FOR MAKING THE INTRO SONG. (soundcloud.com / andoryukesuta)@andoryukesuta Troll Hunter (2010) A group of students investigates a series of mysterious bear killings, but learns that there are much more dangerous things going on. They start to follow a mysterious hunter, learning that he is actually a troll hunter. A group of students from Volda University College, Thomas (Glenn Erland Tosterud), Johanna (Johanna Mørck) and their cameraman Kalle (Tomas Alf Larsen), set out to make a documentary about a suspected bear poacher, Hans (Otto Jespersen). At the site of an illegally slain bear they interview local hunters, who comment that the bear tracks look odd, as well as Finn Haugen (Hans Morten Hansen), head of the Norwegian Wildlife Board. Finn dismisses the idea that the bear tracks could have been faked. The students follow Hans in an attempt to secure an interview but he continually rebuffs them. After following him into a forest at night time, they see mysterious flashing lights and hear roars. Hans comes running back, screaming "Troll!" Thomas is attacked and reveals that he was bitten by something. They escape in Hans's Land Rover and discover their own vehicle turned over with the tyres ripped off. Hans admits that it is not bears he is hunting, but trolls. Though sceptical, the students ask if they can join Hans and film his hunt, to which he consents on the condition that they do exactly as he instructs. The next day Hans makes them disguise themselves with "troll stench" (a slimy concentrate made from "everything you can squeeze out of a troll") and asks if any of them believe in God or Jesus, because a troll can smell a Christian man's blood. Hans wields a "flash gun", a weapon that emits powerful UV-rays to simulate sunlight and turn trolls to stone, though he comments that sometimes the trolls "just explode" depending on how old they are. The students are stunned when Hans flushes out a giant three-headed troll (called a Tusseladd). Hans manages to turn the troll to stone and explains to the students that he only allowed them to come along because he's tired of working for little compensation and wants them to divulge the truth. Finn, who actually works for the Troll Security Service (TSS), arrives with a team to deposit a bear carcass and plant fake tracks, and tells the students that they will not be allowed to keep their tapes. In a series of interviews, Hans reveals that Finn's work is to keep trolls a secret, while his is to kill any that come near populated areas. He also explains that the trolls have been acting aggressively lately and have begun to leave their territories more often than usual, and that he must get a troll blood sample to determine why.

This week, Ike and Jenna are still driving back from Cortland, so Liza is filling in with Steve. We talk about some of Steve's impressions from ANARC, and Liza's FOMO (fear of missing out) was high!  Then we talk about the new Lexus GX, and the comparisons to the new Defender. Liza has some definite opinions about where the similarities stop.  For our interview, Ike & Steve interview Steve Owens, who not only was the only attendee to drive his 80” to the show, he drove it clear across the US, from OshKosh Wisconsin to Cortland NY- and back!  To wrap it up, we talk about Liza's recent attendance at The Art of Rebelle show, and how to stay apprised of Steve and Liza's upcoming UK trip.  Hot Cars, 10 ways the new Lexus will be better than the Defender…https://www.hotcars.com/lexus-gx-vs-land-rover-defender/#the-2024-lexus-gx-is-more-affordable-and-retains-value-better-than-the-land-rover

Son muchos los que piensan que el Land Rover original, porque lo de “Defender” llega en 1990, es un diseño más avanzado que el del Jeep… por ejemplo, con carrocería de aluminio, una buena idea. ¿Más avanzado? ¡Pero si es una copia del Jeep! ¿Buena idea lo del aluminio? ¡Si fue pura casualidad! Hay mucho que contar de este coche, el TT más difundido del Mundo. En la Segunda Guerra Mundial apareció en 1941 el Jeep americano, considerado el primer vehículo TT de gran éxito y difusión… porque ya antes existían los TT. Era un coche robusto, sencillo, práctico… y muchos pensaron que este tipo de coches iban a tener un hueco en Europa, pero sobre todo en otros continentes con una red viaria mucho menos desarrollada, a veces inexistente y con conductores poco avezados… Y entre estos visionarios estaban los británicos hermanos Spencer y Maurice Wilks… Siempre se ha culpado a los chinos de ser, como decían mis hijos de pequeños, unos “copiotas”. Es cierto que lo son, pero también es cierto que en el mundo del motor copiar ha sido algo muy habitual…Los hermanos Wilks en 1947 tuvieron la brillante idea de producir un 4x4 barato no solo pensado en un uso militar, sino en un vehículo sencillo para satisfacer las necesidades de una clientela rural y de las amplias colonias del Imperio Británico. ¿Y que hicieron? Ante la escasez de ideas y viendo lo bien que iban los Jeep, en su primer prototipo utilizaron directamente el chasis de un Jeep Willys. Vamos a ser sinceros: No se quebraron mucho la cabeza en el primer prototipo. Partieron de un chasis de Jeep, hicieron una carrocería prácticamente cuadrada, a la que montaron parabrisas y cristales o bien atornillados o bien articulados, caso del parabrisas. El equipamiento era prácticamente justito, por no decir nulo. No es cosa mía, es que los asientos eran de chapa con un cojín como toda muestra de confort… el concepto de “sujeción lateral” ni se conocía ni se esperaba. Fijaos si eran prácticos estos chicos y se complicaron poco la vida que para evitar el engorro de poner el volante a un lado o a otro, en función del mercado, lo pusieron en el centro… a grandes males, grandes remedios. Tampoco se complicaron en el nombre: El motor era Rover, el fabricante iba a ser Rover y como era para ir por la tierra y no por el asfalto, pues Land Rover… insisto, muy resolutivos estos hermanos… Pero había un problemilla… ¡no había acero! La guerra había supuesto un consumo de acero brutal para hacer blindajes, carros de combate, coches, camiones, barcos, que necesitan decenas de miles de toneladas de acero… el acero estaba por las nubes… Así que tenían un problema, ¿con que hacemos la carrocería de este coche? Se hizo de aluminio, porque era más barato y fácil de encontrar. Pero resultó un gran acierto, porque era más ligero y no se oxidaba… en una época en que los tratamientos anti-corrosión no eran muy allá. Y se convirtió en una de las mayores virtudes de este modelo y de su mayor rasgo de identidad… que ha llegado hasta nuestros días. Decíamos que el Land Rover ha sido el TT más extendido del Mundo y la razón es clara: Gran Bretaña era la potencia colonial más importante del Mundo a mediados del siglo pasado. Los Land Rover fueron a parar a todas las colonias y excolonias británicas y de ahí, por extensión, a los países vecinos y a medio Mundo. Recordemos que la British Comonwealth o comunidad británica de naciones, países con especial relación con el Reino Unido, aún hoy está formado por 56 países entre ellos Australia, Canadá, India y Sudáfrica por citar a los más importantes… Os voy a comentar la evolución empresarial de la marca, que ya os lo adelanto, como todo lo que tiene que ver con los ingleses, ¡¡¡ES UN LIO!!!. Land Rover nace como una marca de Rover, pero en 1967 Rover pasa a ser de Leyland Motors, que luego se llamó British Leyland y que quebró en 1975 y se nacionaliza. Rover se escinde de Leyland, luego pasa a ser Rover Group, luego en 1994 compra la marca a BMW que en el 2000 la vende a Ford… como es decía ¡que lío! Pero ya llegamos al final: En 2007 lo compra la firma hindú Tata, la actual propietaria de esta marca y de Jaguar… Bueno, casi el final, porque ahora Jaguar-Land Rover pasa a ser JLR… pero sobre esto estoy preparando otro vídeo. Hablemos de técnica. No vamos a entrar en detalles, pero vamos a dar un repasito a esta evolución… que realmente no ha sido mucha, porque el Land Rover, que pasó a llamarse Defender en 1990, siempre fue muy fiel a sí mismo. De ese primer prototipo nació el Serie I, que ya llevaba el volante a un lado y chasis propio y al que en 1957 se le monto un motor Diésel. En 1978 llega la serie II, algo más refinada y en 1971 la serie III con transmisión sincronizada entre otros avances. En 1979 llega al capó del Land Rover el motor V8 y en 1990 comienza a llamarse Defender. Desde entonces se fue “Puliendo” pero sin cambios realmente relevantes hasta su desaparición en enero de 2016… un verdadero disgusto para sus seguidores. No me quiero olvidar de los Land Rover Made in Spain. Porque El éxito del Land Rover Serie I fue de tal magnitud que la marca firmó acuerdos para fabricarlo bajo licencia en otros países. En 1958 British Leyland, propietaria de Land Rover, llega a un acuerdo con Metalúrgica Santana, una empresa de maquinaria agrícola, para fabricar en Linares, Jaén, el Land Rover serie II. Tenéis video de la “Historia de Santana”, con muchas curiosidades. Pocos coches han tenido usos tan diversos con el Land Rover. Los motivos: La enorme variedad de carrocerías y distancia entre ejes, su fiabilidad, simplicidad, internacionalización, en cualquier parte del mundo te reparan un Land Rover; sin olvidar las tomas de fuerza de su transmisión para mover sistemas accesorios. Existen todo tipo de versiones militares, de fuerzas de seguridad del estado, bomberos, ambulancias, para maquinaria agrícola, anfibio, con orugas, para hacer viajes aventura… Salvo en pruebas deportivas, donde por su carácter no encaja para nada, el Land Rover ha sido de todo lo que puedas imaginar… Y en 2012 llega el “nuevo” Defender, ¿es un auténtico Defender? Tiene carrocería monocasco, tecnología “importada” del Range Rover y mucho aluminio, pero los puristas te dirán que no es un auténtico “Defender” … que el auténtico heredero es el Ineos… hicimos un podcast sobre el Ineos.

Today's episode of the podcast is all about how to create a more simple business and life for yourself. In this episode I talk about why making your business a success isn't always about adding things and growing, and why actually sometimes it's about taking those things away and streamlining instead. KEY TAKEAWAYS COVERED IN THE PODCAST How to streamline your business Some ways I have simplified my business this year The key question you need to ask yourself when you're overwhelmed If you're listening to this and know someone who is overwhelmed, please feel free to share it with them, I'd really love you to do that! LINKS TO RESOURCES MENTIONED IN TODAY'S EPISODE Check out Kajabi (affiliate link) Connect with Teresa on Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook or Twitter Transcript You are listening to Your Dream Business podcast with your host, Teresa Heath Wareing, and welcome to episode 299. I'm nearly at that all important 300. Now, you know what was funny? I'd got all these plans for episode 300, except life has become a little bit busy with going away and speaking and events and all that, but also with home stuff and family stuff and sometimes you just don't quite get to where you wanna be or get the thing done that you need getting done. So it looks like what I had planned for episode 300 will now be a later episode, which is fine by me cuz it's not quite the time and that's okay. And the episode 300 will just be another average episode, which again, I am all right with because plans change, things change, things move. And as business owners, one of the cool things about it is that we stay flexible and we move and we are not absolutely rigidly stuck in a thing or, we don't take forever to change when we do change. Man, I remember working in corporate marketing when I worked for Land Rover, it was a massive company. Like we had a whole legal department just for marketing because we had to be so careful of what we said and how we said it, and then it would have to go, like if we wanted anything done, the amount of approval it needed was nuts. So, You can imagine that idea to actual getting it done would take forever. And one of the things I love about my small business is the fact that I can change and move and be flexible and be agile and do what I need to do that suits me and my business and hopefully always suits my audience and suits my members and my clients. But importantly, and, and there's nothing selfish about this, is that it suits us because what's the point of being in business if we hate the thing that we do or we create a business that doesn't fit with us? And as you know, I have talked many, many, many times about what a dream business is and creating your own dream business. So I won't go on about that here. That was not for today's plan. But today's episode does fit in really nicely because today I'm gonna be talking about how I am making my business simple. I've been in business for nearly nine, no, nearly 10 years. I can't remember. I think it's...

Car mileage is the main determinant of how often you'll have to spend fixing issues, even more so than the length of time you own the car. Here's a discussion on my blindspot on why I find Range Rovers to be more reliablity than perception. I've owned a Land Rover for 20 years now and wouldn't own one if they were chronically unreliable.  We also discuss how my desire for cars have changed as I've aged.  Relevant posts: The Best Way To Save On Car Maintenance The Biggest Benefit Of Driving A Cheap Old Car 8 Cars In 10 Years: I Have A Car Buying Addiction Keep in Touch With Financial Samurai Join 60,000+ others and sign up for my free weekly newsletter so you never miss a thing.

20 years ago, Land Rover held the first ever G4 Challenge.  A global marketing event designed to showcase the newest model of Range Rover, Freelander, Defender and Discovery, the event took place over four weeks in four different global locations. The fourth and final stage of the event took the competitors on a breathtaking 800+ mile route from Las Vegas, NV, to Moab, UT.   So how do you pay homage to this iconic part of Rover history? Well, if you're So-cal resident and rover enthusiast Steve Cooper, you find a few fellow G4 Range Rover owners who own the original competition vehicles here in the US, and set out to recreate the route taken by the original competitors.  And to do that, you reach out to none other than Land Rover photographer extraordinaire himself, Mr. Nick Dimbleby, who photographed the original event. Liza joins Ike this week as they interview Steve Cooper, who dreamed up this harebrained recreation, and Chris Georgacas, who deciphered Nick's notes and maps for this epic road trip. The four are joined by Nick Dimbleby himself, who gives us all some excellent insight into the original event. Hear about some of the fun and adventure that was had by the gang as four of the original eight left hand drive Range Rovers used for the event re-traced the steps.  Joined by the Underpowered Hour's very own Liza and Abigail to document the fun, this adventure was undertaken by true enthusiasts of the best 4x4xfar. Car 1: Steve and Dixie Car 2: Chris  Car 3: Alex  and Sue Car 4: Luke and Andy Car 5: Liza and Abigail  *Cars 1 through 4 were all original, competition used G4 Range Rovers.  Liza and Abigail drove Liza's 2022 Trek Defender. #g4challenge #g4landrover #g4recreation #g4tribute #underpoweredhour #rangerover #landroverdefender #landroverphotography #best4x4xfar #landrover 

This week's episode has our heroic hosts chatting about all sorts of interesting Land Rover related topics. 1:20 First, JLR is making money, and business is up! Seems they're making money: profit, revenue and free cash flow are all up. 2:50 Steve has been working on some interesting AI research for work, and talks about the AI generated art work he produced using those tools. Its interesting to see what AI thinks about Land Rovers based on the information its been given. 9:10 Convertible Land Rover Defender 90 conversions- that's new defenders, not old ones. The guys break down their thoughts about it, and some considerations about turning a modern car into a convertible. How does this conversion compare to the Bronco or the Jeeps that come from the factory with soft tops? Ike and Steve give their opinions. 15:10 Steve finally got rid of the widowmaker, and in the words of Liza, "This is the stupidest thing [Steve's] ever done". Watch our socials this week for a video of the widowmaker being winched by a Defender into a truck and nearly destroying it in the process... 22:00 Ike has a new segment we're calling "From the Archives". This week, he talks about the infamous Land Rovers used in the early construction of Disneyworld in Florida, and Ike has some ideas how that deal came to be that Disney should purchase 49 Series IIA pickup trucks with PTOs for mowing roadside. 27:00 Did a Land Rover expedition to South America actually install snake venom sucking apparatus onto their manifolds? Listen to Ike tell us what he's learned. Check it out now! Be sure to follow us @underpoweredhour on instagram and facebook, and consider supporting the show on Patreon!
