Seeing the photos and video of the all new 2014 Range Rover Sport made me think about this vintage 1995 Range Rover Ad. Back in 1995, I actually cut this ad from a magazine because It thought it looked so cool. I think I cut it from Architectural Digest, but I can't remember for certain. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Seeing the recent launch of the Range Rover Sport made be think I should scan this ad and share it on Jake's Car World. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgof8LKSE2PWSgiZjNKpW5A27KGu_a3_925kLE831dbajx3gHVBdhB3Up_uyNvSC9E1UKHNgpJUVXK79Wfq5WIYFi-7aTTf_cdZlw1sb61UTJ3jHHEvUx14lrbajI0DvexOmNWMK2XNS5_B/s1600/1995-Range-Rover-Magazine-Ad-from-Jake's-Car-World-Blog.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="1022" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgof8LKSE2PWSgiZjNKpW5A27KGu_a3_925kLE831dbajx3gHVBdhB3Up_uyNvSC9E1UKHNgpJUVXK79Wfq5WIYFi-7aTTf_cdZlw1sb61UTJ3jHHEvUx14lrbajI0DvexOmNWMK2XNS5_B/s1600/1995-Range-Rover-Magazine-Ad-from-Jake's-Car-World-Blog.jpg" width="800" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Back in the late 1980s I owned a couple of Jeep Wagoneer's which I thought were so cool looking. They were not very well made, and they were not precise instruments, but what American car was in the late 1980s? I remember thinking is was fascinating how the Range Rover looked like a modernized version of the Jeep Wagoneer. The photo below shows a 1962 Jeep Wagoneer, and it is a fact that all the original Land Rover's were based upon Jeep design, as you can see in the Land Rover History Documentary located at the end of this story.</span></span></span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></span><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>1962 Jeep Wagoneer </b></span></span></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_VmUvkDfu5jWGtR3_u72yXBDF1S3QgX2dWeHqPM9djoHgK00tQaKQjvTPkhShyphenhyphenVF8smfRxXYkxwLp8Wl6A3XQDpr8PRkMhjbBSXzjA-whd3w3KFqeczRBiFSCJZobXcD9ive2RBxW19lg/s1600/1965-Jeep-Wagoneer.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="380" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_VmUvkDfu5jWGtR3_u72yXBDF1S3QgX2dWeHqPM9djoHgK00tQaKQjvTPkhShyphenhyphenVF8smfRxXYkxwLp8Wl6A3XQDpr8PRkMhjbBSXzjA-whd3w3KFqeczRBiFSCJZobXcD9ive2RBxW19lg/s1600/1965-Jeep-Wagoneer.jpg" width="800" /></span></a></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span><span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></span><br /><span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I have been a designer for the past 30 years and I have always wondered why Land Rover didn't take the Range Rover to the next level and make it much more aerodynamic while making its geometry really sporty, and give it a lower profile and stance. Well, last week Land Rover introduced the all-new Range Rover Sport, and they finally achieved my dream, as you can see from the image of the all-new 2014 Range Rover Sport below.</span></span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgasxO3-AbDxFLUkX9Bh_yrWODSHoIIS667pSxyNF-v6kGgeAMp1zCpecHz6s-BwV8TtuZT2FyqFJNgOfia7Y9zZMcf7rd813q-cpFxJUwKb7Qiz4pRBnpnCY1Wqf3JheEFGMhXo6UtHaVW/s1600/2014-Range-Rover-Sport-in-San-Francisco.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="674" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgasxO3-AbDxFLUkX9Bh_yrWODSHoIIS667pSxyNF-v6kGgeAMp1zCpecHz6s-BwV8TtuZT2FyqFJNgOfia7Y9zZMcf7rd813q-cpFxJUwKb7Qiz4pRBnpnCY1Wqf3JheEFGMhXo6UtHaVW/s1600/2014-Range-Rover-Sport-in-San-Francisco.jpg" width="800" /></span></a></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLnp3y7ZoiOsmhhd8ns0qJhKHIyWDd8LK4qVgdgDYiCjQQmCyINiYxgbDb4WBX4W4THvpsgyjU5HNv3BWhX9iMi456VVY0Iivnivt9PUEsi6zwVMbdi4MgrT4Rlm5e-cncUKjWNFB0xW4l/s1600/2014-Range-Rover-Sport-Red.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLnp3y7ZoiOsmhhd8ns0qJhKHIyWDd8LK4qVgdgDYiCjQQmCyINiYxgbDb4WBX4W4THvpsgyjU5HNv3BWhX9iMi456VVY0Iivnivt9PUEsi6zwVMbdi4MgrT4Rlm5e-cncUKjWNFB0xW4l/s1600/2014-Range-Rover-Sport-Red.jpg" /></span></a><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The photo above is of the all-new 2014 Range Rover Sport, and the photo below is of a 1972 Jeep Wagoneer.
