1985 Defender 110 County Station Wagon, RHD, 2.5 liter four cylinder diesel, five speed LT77 gearbox, Marine Blue with black vinyl interior.  This vehicle was used by the National Health Service in the UK as an ambulance support vehicle, and was mainly garage kept and maintained to a strict schedule.  This County Station Wagon is just about completely original:  Original Marine Blue paint is in remarkable condition, still shiny and bright, and the galvanized cappings are in very good condition.   Body panels are just about perfectly straight, and the doors are tight and close correctly.   Window cranks work correctly, and all the glass is in good condition with no cracks.  Chassis and bulkhead are original, and in excellent condition for the year, there is no bulkhead rot around the air vents, hinges, the kick panels are super solid.   Outriggers, rear crossmember, front horns are all very solid, with a lot of the original chassis paint still showing.   Genuine 12 seater, with the 3-3-6 seating position, with the 2 rearmost inward facing jump seats.   Headliner is in very good condition, as are the black vinyl seats.   Dash is also just about perfect, with some very small holes where the CB radio equipment was attached.     Engine is the original 2.5 liter four cylinder diesel.  Fires up first shot with a few seconds of glow plug, and idles correctly, with no excess smoke.    Steering is tight, and does not wander.   The LT77 five speed gearbox works perfectly, with no excessive noise, whine, grinding or jumping out of gear.    Clutch works correctly, with no judder or slip.     Bonnet mounted spare tire will be fitted prior to delivery.    Fitted with Michelin XZL tires with about 40% tread left.   Electrical system works correctly, e.g. gauges, lights, horn, etc.    Original, raised letter rear number plate included in sale.  Original, raised letter front number plate not shown but also included in sale. 

There are not many numbers matching, original condition 110's out there like this, it is a superb example of a well-maintained vehicle that will provide many more years of dependable use.    This is NOT one a re-vinned "Franken-Rover" cobbled together from different Roves, or a newer model with an old VIN plate.   The actual age and originality of this Land Rover cannot be questioned.    You will not have to worry about whether or not an insurance claim will be denied because of a discrepancy in the model year if you get into an accident.   You will not have to worry about US Customs taking your vehicle.   It has a clear Pennsylvania title.    If you have any questions about this vehicle, please ask me before bidding, and please be aware that this is not a restored, galvanized frame, fresh paint, new Puma 2.4 liter Land Rover.  While it has been extremely well maintained and is in amazing condition for its age, it still has all of the hallmarks of a used vehicle:  small rock chips from highway use, minor galvanic corrosion on the aluminum along the lower sills, some rust on the mudflap brackets, side steps, some scratches in the paintwork, some small tears on back of one of the middle seats, and other minor wear that is to be expected.    I received negative feedback from a previous sale of a Land Rover 110, where the buyer expected a restored vehicle for the price of a solid, mechanically and structurally sound Land Rover in ORIGINAL condition that had fair wear and tear.   Be aware that what you are bidding on is NOT NEW, NOT RESTORED, and PLEASE ask questions.   I have provided the best description I can of the vehicle.  I have included my phone number.   Call me and/or message me through EBAY.  I would trust this Land Rover to make a long trip, but if you are used to driving a new Range Rover Sport, it may not be for you.   It is a great 110 at a great price.  Period.  I have imported over 300 Land Rovers over the past 19 years, and this is one of the best unrestored vehicles I have seen.    I have driven it over 500 miles and it has run just the way it should.    I can arrange delivery door to door, or come out and drive it home.    I will be uploading additional photos shortly.

Jaguar Land Rover building new Special Vehicle Operations facility

Sun, 17 Aug 2014

It's only been a couple of months since Jaguar Land Rover announced the formation of its new Special Operations division, and we've already seen a number of vehicles to come out of it. But now the British automaker has announced a new facility that will house its elite skunkworks department.
Set to be built at Prologis Park in Ryton, England, on the outskirts of Coventry, the new Special Vehicle Operations Technical Centre will encompass dedicated production lines, F1-style flexible workshops, a dedicated paint studio and VIP suite for commissioning bespoke projects. JLR will spend some $33 million on the facility that will be home to 150 specialists - 100 of them being new hires.
The first project which the Special Operations division is working on is the F-Type Project 7, but we've already seen more projects in the pipeline - including the upcoming Range Rover Sport SVR - and you can bet there'll be more. The revival of the Lightweight E-Type also falls under Special Operations, but is undertaken by the Jaguar Heritage department located nearby at Browns Lane.

Land Rover knows where you're going and how you want to get there

Thu, 10 Jul 2014

Land 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.

Jaguar-Land Rover builds millionth vehicle at Halewood

Fri, 29 Nov 2013

Jaguar-Land Rover is not what you'd call a volume automaker by any stretch of the imagination. But in the dozen years since it started manufacturing at its Halewood plant near Liverpool, England, the automaker has already built its millionth vehicle.
The landmark vehicle is a Range Rover Evoque, done up in white with red roof and mirrors, black wheels and a red and black interior. The crossover is set to be donated to Cancer Research UK, which will auction it off next year to help fund its projects in the north-west of the country.
Halewood started manufacturing the Jaguar X-Type in 2001, then went on to assemble the Land Rover LR2 / Freelander 2 before taking on production of the Evoque a year and a half ago. The facility reached the 300,000-unit milestone just last year as production moved to a 24-hour cycle for the first time in either marque's history.
