New Malayan showroom for Jaguar, Land Rover

Wednesday, 05 May 2010 09:36

MALAYAN Motors has spent more than $3 million to convert part of its Leng Kee Road property for joint representation of the Jaguar and Land Rover brands.

The new showroom will be the first in Asia to house the two British marques together according to full corporate identity standards.

Malayan Motors has been the distributor for Jaguar here since 1970, while Sime Darby held Land Rover from the mid-1980s.

Because Tata prefers both brands to be handled by one representative, Land Rover moved over to Malayan Motors at the start of this month.

Malayan Motors is part of the mainboard-listed Wearnes Group and also holds the Bentley franchise.

When Land Rover’s handsome Range Rover Sport bowed for the 2006 model year, it raised eyebrows among aficionados of the venerable British marque. This new model certainly looked a lot like its celebrated big brother, the Range Rover, but cut a decidedly trimmer figure, and although it was mechanically derived from the square-jawed LR3, it rolled onto Land Rover showrooms with an almost scandalously dashing mien. As the faithful quickly discovered, this seemingly enigmatic addition to the Land Rover family was, in fact, a triple threat par excellence: as sumptuous as a luxury sedan, as swift and agile as a sports car, and as talented off the pavement as, well, a Land Rover.

Car of the Year 2010: No. 6 Land Rover Range Rover Autobiography

Good Sport

Range Rovers have always been square with sharp corners; and though they are great when sloughing off road, they are inclined to laziness and lurching when hauling horse trailers on dry land. So forgive our judges for prejudging the Autobiography as just another contrived special edition intended to conceal the same old four-wheeler. For once they saw it and drove it, prejudice became praise. Drivers admired the technologies aimed at keeping the vehicle upright, straight, level, and on an undulating keel despite unnerving, uneven conditions. Highest marks went to the new 5-liter, 510 hp supercharged engine that transforms this SUV into a sports car. —Paul Dean
