Land rover defender with Netherlands registration. 1996 year and original 300tdi and LHD..... perfect for those Canadian winters with heated front and rear screens.
it has been on consignment with me at land rover import for some time and i finally bought it from my customer.
it was professionally rebuilt onto a new galvanized chassis 3 years ago and stamped with the VIN number. at that time it had new bushes and suspension throughout, new brake pipes and bolt kit.
it has been maintained regardless of cost and drives perfectly. the speedometer is in kilometers and reads at 182K.
when considering price please understand that to build a vehicle such as this to this spec on a new galvanized chassis would cost in excess of $30K
i have fitted new seat bases and a new battery to it and it is ready to drive anywhere. it will be checked over before leaving our shop to ensure that it is fully serviced throughout and everything works as it should.
the price includes shipping to east coast Canada, onward shipping can be organized at buyers expense or you can take care of it yourself. All duty and customs fees/charges are the buyers responsibillity though we are happy to help with this and have extensive experience of doing this over many years.
i have a large stock of defenders, 110 and 90 and 130, both LHD and RHD. all of which are available to be put on ebay to be exported from the uk where they sit. The last few pics are of some other stock (not included in this listing but can be put on ebay to sell) and a TDI engine mid rebuild for a land rover diesel conversion kit that shipped to Maine recently.

Jaguar Land Rover and Chery investing in Chinese plant
Sat, 24 Nov 2012While the European auto market for Jaguar and Land Rover is waning, Chinese car buyers can't get enough of the British marques. To meet that demand, Tata Motors, parent company of Jag and Land Rover, is partnering with Chinese automaker Chery Automobile Co.
The two announced plans to invest $1.75 billion to build a new plant and create a new, China-focused brand. 2014 is the target for completion of the factory. Jaguars and Land Rovers built at the facility will be the first ever produced outside the UK according to the Associated Press. The JV will be called Chery Jaguar Land Rover Automotive Company Ltd.
The announcement comes less than a month after JLR announced it would open a design studio in China. It's not clear from the reports whether the two announcements are part of the same JV or two separate plans.
Jaguar Land Rover opens winter testing facility in Minnesota
Wed, 12 Dec 2012As it begins the rollout of the all-wheel-drive Jaguar XJ and XF models, Jaguar Land Rover has just announced that it has opened a new facility in northern Minnesota for winter testing. Located in International Falls, MN (on the US and Canadian border), the British automaker says it is one of the coldest locations in the Continental US. Jaguar's new Instinctive All Wheel Drive system was developed primarily to help sell more cars in the northern US, so it only makes sense to open a testing area in the US as well.
With temperatures that can drop to minus 55 degrees Fahrenheit, International Falls was chosen to mimic some of the worst weather a Jaguar or Land Rover will ever see. The grounds house testing chambers, various road surfaces and even a frozen lake. This new facility complements the hot-weather testing grounds in Phoenix, AZ.
The official press release is posted below.
Jaguar opens new engine plant in the UK
Thu, 30 Oct 2014The heads of Jaguar Land Rover are having a busy couple of weeks opening factories. Just days after inaugurating the company's first overseas plant in China, the automaker's new Engine Manufacturing Center in the UK is being inaugurated, as well. The plant near Wolverhampton, England, marks the first time in decades that JLR is building its own powerplants in-house. Further signaling the importance of this launch for the business, Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip were on hand and even tweeted about it.
The factory's first major project is to build JLR's latest Ingenium four-cylinders, starting with the 2.0-liter diesel version. "Our new Engine Manufacturing Centre is an important step in advancing the competitiveness and capability of the UK automotive sector. The production of in-house engines will support the expansion of the UK supply chain providing critical mass for inward investment," said Trevor Leeks, plant operations director in the automaker's announcement.
Opening the doors to the Engine Manufacturing Center has been years in the making for JLR. The plant was first announced in September 2011 and broke ground in June 2012. Building it cost the company 500 million pounds ($800 million) and created 1,400 new jobs. Of course, being a state-of-the-art factory, considerations were made to make the place as energy efficient as possible. That meant installing the UK's largest solar array with 21,000 panels to produce about 30 percent of the site's electricity needs.
