Jaguar Land Rover to spend additional £250 million a year with UK suppliers

JLR to spend and extra £1 billion with UK suppliers The Range Rover Evoque phenomenon continues with Jaguar Land Rover announcing an extra £250 million additional annual spend with UK suppliers. Just last week we had the news that Land Rover’s Freelander 2 had hit sales of 300,000 since its launch in 2007, but if the Range Rover Evoque continues selling the way it has that figure will be eclipsed in half the time by the Evoque. And it’s sales of the Evoque – Land Rover has sold 60,000 Evoques in the first seven months on sale – that’s driving the need to spend more with suppliers and the announcement today that UK suppliers can look forward to an extra £250 million a year being spent to support the Evoque’s production at Halewood.

Cars recalled in fire risk alert

MORE THAN 400 recently-bought Peugeot and Citroen cars are being recalled in the UK due to a possible fuel leak and fire risk. Affecting models including the Peugeot 208 and 308 and the Citroen C4, the recall is necessary as during manufacture the high-pressure fuel rail pipes were not tightened correctly. This may have resulted in poor sealing of the rail and fuel leaking on to the engine, which could result in an engine bay fire.
