Everything is brand new. Interior, exterior, engine transmission, accessories everything. It took 2 years to finish
this car. I purchased it in 2011. I bought it to enjoy it, it was in great original shape when I bought it and it
had only 40000 miles, then after 6 months I decided to fully restore the car. It was finished in 2015. I will try
to list everything that was done to the car, but I will probably forget most of the things. Just send me a message
if you have any questions. In the last 5-6 years, I only put 6000 miles on the car after full restoration and still
did maintenance every 6 months.

When I built this car, I wanted to build the ultimate Defender. Very capable off roader with the looks and very
comfortable daily driver in the city. Starting with the city features, the car has 2 very important features. Air
conditioning system and power steering wheel. These 2 are game changers in these cars. Without these two, it is
very hard to drive these cars. Also the car has power brakes and brand new clutch and recently serviced
transmission. Heater works well, and all the doors, door panels, seals were replaced. Off road tires are very quiet
and it gives a very smooth ride in daily driving. it is a very smooth and quiet ride in the city and very
comfortable. You can go on highway, and it is very quiet. Even though the car was built as a true off roader, I
only took it off-road a couple times and mostly for camping. Car was never taken to hard off-road terrains.

Exterior:
Car was painted Camel Trophy yellow. All the trims and accessories are gloss black and they are correct to original
Camel Trophy Defenders. Car is lifted and all the springs, shocks, arms, links are brand new. It has 4 brand new
tires with less than 200 miles on them. You can still see the markings on the tires. Rims are also painted to the
body color.


Front headlight and rear taillights all have protector cages around them. Grill and headlight bases are also
painted to gloss black. All 16 windows are tinted and look amazing. Front bumper, rear bumper, side steps are
custom made. Panel under the front bumper is also custom with “Defender” script on it with matching yellow
color. There is a 33” jack installed on the rear bumper and a ladder to go to the roof tent. There are also steps
on the rear bumper as well.

There are 5 off road lights on the roof in front and all of them are functional. There are also lights on the side
of the roof and in the back. They are all LEDs and all work. Pretty bright. Rugged Ridge 12000lb winch was
installed in the front and can be controlled via remote in the trunk.

There is a custom roof rack on top with a very large tent. Tent can host 3 people. Also the rear seats of the car
can fold down and 2 people can sleep there. So 5 people can sleep on this car int total. Tent in the back also
covers the back of the car and that area can be used for showering. . Roof rack also carries 2
storage boxes and the spare tire.

There are rocker panels installed on the side of the car and they are also painted gloss black. This also provides
a unique look to this beautiful Defender. Also snorkel is installed on the driver side of the car so it can go
through deep waters.

Interior:


Interior is brand new as seen in the photos. Black real leather is used with yellow stitching and accents. Interior
has lots of custom pieces and looks very luxurious.
Most important piece of the interior is the Webasto Air Conditioning system that is installed underneath the arm
rest. This is a game changer.
There is a bluetooth radio and speakers, that also provides great sound. You can connect your phone to it or just
listen to the radio.
All the pedals, floor mats, carpets, roof lining, dome lights, dash, door panels, steering wheel, seat belts, arm
rest, doors, locks, window regulators and whatever you can think of are brand new. Some of them are custom made
pieces like door panels, roof linings dashboard, lockable arm rest, sun visors.. Some of them are original Land
Rover parts like steering wheels, shifters, seat bases, seat belts, mirrors etc.
There is a 2 part storage area in the trunk. These 2 sections can be used to hide stuff or separate the cargo. Side
windows in the trunk can slide and open for more air. Rear door panel and trunk side panels are also finished in
leather with yellow stitching.

Engine and Transmission:
Brand new clutch was installed 200 miles ago and transmission is serviced. Fluids were flushed and replaced.
Transmission is very smooth and brand new.
Power steering box was recently replaced. Steering wheel is very soft and responsive.
Car has a 2.5L gasoline engine with 4 cylinders. Engine was serviced at the same time and has lots of new
components. Spark plugs, seals, oil, filters, gaskets and many more parts. Tune up was done and drives very
smoothly. Nothing needs to be done to the engine or transmission. Turn key car. No leaks, no vibration, no funny
noises. It is almost impossible to find a Defender in this mechanical condition.

Jaguar Land Rover opens first overseas factory in China

Wed, 22 Oct 2014

Anyone who's a car fan knows that Jaguar and Land Rover cars and trucks all come from the UK. And while we don't doubt that will remain true for the most part, it won't be an absolute truth for long, as the British automaker has just opened its first factory overseas.
Its new plant in Changshu, China, is the result of a $1.8-billion joint venture between JLR and local automaker Chery. It covers some 4.3-million square feet and will, once at peak capacity, produce 130,000 units specifically for the Chinese market, where JLR sells over 100,000 vehicles each year to make it the company's single largest market worldwide.
Production at what's officially known as the Chery Jaguar Land Rover Automotive Company will start with the Evoque, of which one in five globally are currently sold in China. Production will eventually encompass three models. We already know that the Discovery Sport will be next, but the third model line has yet to be announced. JLR has confirmed, however, that the Changshu plant will produce unique models and derivatives specifically for the Chinese market, so we wouldn't be surprised to see a long-wheelbase version of the forthcoming XE or next-generation XF assembled there to satisfy local tastes.

Jaguar Land Rover and Chery investing in Chinese plant

Sat, 24 Nov 2012

While 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.

Going high-tech, the 4x4 way

Is It An Off-Road Adventure Or Just A Walk In The Park?
I remember having to get out and lock hubs and shift into neutral to engage low range.
Coming off press previews of the 2013 Land Rover Range Rover and the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee that involved some heavy-duty off-road rock climbing, I'm simply amazed at the capabilities that these vehicles possess. But even more impressive (or troubling depending on your perspective) is the relative ease with which you can operate these vehicles in seemingly impossible terrain.
