1974 Landrover Series 3 Genuine Safarir Station Wagon Ebay Does Not Recognise The UK VIN - The VIN is 90201870A The Landrover was first registered 1974 so well past the 25 year threshold for entry into the States. Shipping I regularly send Landrovers to the States and know the Import Procedure inside out. I can arrange all shipping if needs be. Shipping to the East Coast (New York, Brunswick, Charleston etc) is $2500 and for the West Coast (Port Hueneme etc) it is $3000. This includes delivery from me to the UK port of Southampton, UK Customs clearance and ship lading and transport to the USA. I will send the winning bidder the UK title and you just collect from the US port that you have chosen. Vehicle The Landrover was first registered in the UK in 1974 and is a very rare genuine Station Wagon with the Safari roof. These are very hard to find in original condition like this one is. The motor is a 2286cc gasoline engine. The transmission is 4 speed manual and this one has the expensive Fairey Overdrive system installed. The exterior is finished in Landrover Limestone and is the original colour that the car would have been painted. It is nice and solid and is an honest, original Landrover. It has not been restored previously and will be a sound buy for someone looking for a good useable Landrover. There are a few signs of age as it is 40 years old but nothing major at all. The doors are solid as are all the panels really. The frame is in decent shape also. The interior is all original and has 3 seats in the front as well as bench seats in the rear so it can carry another 4 people in the back. The truck has been looked over by my local Landrover shop and they have given it a good bill of health. The engine has been serviced and a new fuel pump has been fitted. The motor runs well and there are no issues at all. All gears shift fine and the transmission is very good indeed. Suspension, steering, brakes etc all works as they ought |

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.
Land Rover knows where you're going and how you want to get there
Thu, 10 Jul 2014Land Rover makes some of the most capable SUVs on or off the road, and some of the most luxurious too. But the British automaker isn't about to rest on those laurels - not when every other automaker assaults its territory with sport-utes of their own. That's why Land Rover has been working so hard on nifty new technologies from a depth-sounder in the door mirror of the Range Rover Sport an augmented-reality head-up display that makes the whole front of the car virtually disappear.
JLR's newest tech may not be ground-breaking, but its integration promises to make driving around town that much easier. The system syncs with the driver's smartphone and uses all manner of parameters - including driver habits, weather and location as well as the presence of other passengers - to make the commute go as smoothly as possible. Get into the car and it'll set the seat and mirrors for you. No big deal, because lots of cars do that. But it'll also set up the nav system to take you to work and the sound system to play your favorite music. Okay, getting more interesting.
Get in with your kids and it'll know not only that you've got to drop them off at school first (or remind you to pack their gym bag if they've got soccer practice after school that day) but that they might not enjoy that Chumbawamba album you've been listening to since college and it'll play something it knows you'll all enjoy based on your listening history. Then it'll switch back to Tubthumping once the kids are out, remind you of your morning meeting and alert those you're scheduled to meet with if you get stuck in traffic while finding you a better route to get there, monitoring fuel levels all the while and telling you if you'll need to tank up before you reach your destination. It knows if you like calling your mother on the drive to work and will lower the air suspension to make it easier to hop out once you get there.
Is Jaguar's 3 Series-fighter the brand's last chance?
Wed, 16 Oct 2013The upcoming line of compact 3 Series-fighters from Jaguar, often referred to as the Jaguar XS, could consist of a sedan, wagon and possibly a coupe and GT model (think BMW 5 Series GT). The car's all-aluminum architecture also will provide the basis for two new sports utility vehicles. Just how important is the much-touted "baby Jag" project to parent company Jaguar Land Rover? A JLR executive reportedly says the brand's survival is directly linked to the success of the XS, codenamed X760, Autocar reports.
The brand's survival is directly linked to the success of the XS.
"If the X760 fails, it will probably be the end for the [Jaguar] brand," the executive says. But Adrian Hallmark, Jaguar's global brand director, claims Jaguar will "build the most advanced, most efficient, most refined car in that [compact luxury sedan] segment. Not almost as good as, but better than the best in the world."
