1994 Defender 90 on 2040-cars
Naples, Florida, United States
|
I am the original, and only owner of this 1994 Defender 90.
I purchased it in Minneapolis,( August 1994) where I had a home, and immediately drove it to my home in Naples, Florida, where it has been garaged for its existence. Other than the trip from Minneapolis (1900 miles on the interstate), and a couple of trips to Key West (440 miles round trip), the car has been under cover, and out of the sun for 99.9% of the time, while in my procession. It has 15561 miles on the odometer as of 5/30/14…. I still drive it to the coffee shop on occasion These are soft miles because the truck has never been off the road, but merely used, to drive around town, and to haul nursery plants, or stuff from the Home Depot. Perhaps best described as a novelty vehicle for me. In preparation for sale, I gave thought to replacing the original floor mats, and cargo liner, however found that only the liner, was still available, through Land Rover…….So, I purchased it, and it arrived about a week ago….It is included, and displayed in one of the photos I have the window sticker, bill of sale, and the original full canvas top, and two windows…plus service records….In addition, I have the original radio,(included) which still works, however was replaced by a newer one, that was better for receiving sirius radio (see bracket in photo)….I have the document with the code, to activate, if you choose to reinstall the original radio. The spare tire has never been off the rear door mount, and you can still see the tire mould excesses on the tread. Perhaps the craziest acccessory, is a tonneau cover (see photo). It was on the truck when I purchased it, and immediately put in my garage…i forgot I had it, however it looks brand new……..It has three pockets…Two over the seat tops, and one over the spare tire. All the snaps are on the vehicle….Can't imagine using it, however for the purists, it is included. In reviewing the window sticker , the base price was $27,900 plus $900.00 for the Five-Spoke Aluminum Alloy Wheels….+ $95.00 for Inland transportation…Total $29,395….Port of entry Oxnard, California I also have the marketing brochure…Highlights?……182 H.P.3.9 Litre Aluminum V-8……..BF Goodrich Radial Mud Terrain T/A Tires…7"x16" Wheels…..Estimated Curb weight 3560 Lbs….and a 15.6 gallon gas tank Why am I selling it?….Well at 71, I am starting to tidy up the assets in my estate, and the last thing I want to do is turn it over to some bone headed heir, who would either abuse it, or not recognize it's value. I have been watching the auctions of Defenders for the past two months on E-Bay Needless to say I want to play a role in it's placement, and yes, I do watch "Chasing Classic Cars" Oh….I will of course work with you on shipment (your responsibility)…However will be available to shepard the truck onto the transport company of your choice. My neighbors, ship exotic cars up north all the time for their summer use…. An enclosed transport would be the advised approach I can be reached, via voice, or text, on my cell phone 239 272 7035. My name is Ed |

Jaguar Land Rover building new R&D center for hybrids, EVs, autonomous cars
Wed, 25 Sep 2013The success of Jaguar Land Rover in recent years has largely been down to a resurgent product lineup, but a recent move into the research and development will see the British-based, Indian-owned brands take the fight to its German rivals more aggressively than ever before.
JLR is investing 50 million pounds ($80,345,000, as of this writing) in a joint R&D center in central England. The move will more than triple its staff dedicated to research, from 150 to 500, with Wolfgang Epple, JLR's Director of Research and Technology telling Automotive News Europe, "In order to play among the big animals in automotive and to be anchored in the mind of customers you have to have offered something unique, to be first in market. We want to be one of the key premier automotive manufacturers."
Jaguar Land Rover's 50-million-pound contribution represents more than half of the 94-million-pound tab, on the so-called National Automotive Innovation Campus. Based at Warwick University, Tata's European Technical Center, Warwick Manufacturing Group and the Higher Education Funding Council, an agency of the British government, are all chipping in for the facility.
Brabus takes on Range Rover Sport with Startech widebody kit
Wed, 26 Feb 2014Of all the tuners this side of AMG, none are as close to Mercedes-Benz as Brabus. After all, when Daimler needed a tuner to spruce up the Smart car, it was Brabus that it turned to. But Brabus tunes vehicles other than Mercedes - it just uses, let's call it, a pen name. It brands them Startech, like the widebody kit it's developed for the new Range Rover Sport and will present at the Geneva Motor Show next week.
The modifications center around the carbon fiber body panels Brabus (excuse us, Startech) has developed for the British sport-ute that give it over two inches of added width. The wider fender flares encompass 23-inch wheels that are forged, ceramic-coated, skinned with low-profile rubber and fitted to a lowered suspension. The front and rear bumpers have been redone in plastic and can be fitted with or without the wider fenders, and there's a three-piece roof spoiler at the back.
Startech is also offering an upgrade for the 3.0-liter twin-turbo-diesel V6 that squeezes out an extra 31 horsepower and 59 pound-feet of torque for a total of 323 hp and 501 lb-ft, dropping the 0-62 time from 7.2 seconds to 6.9. The German tuner also has a wide array of interior modifications on offer, details of which you can read about in the press release below and scope out in the high-resolution image gallery above.
European automakers gear up for Brazilian production
Mon, 07 Oct 2013Brazil is the place to be, apparently. Toyota has been investing in the South American country, as has BMW, which announced a $261 million investment in October 2012, on the heels of an Audi factory announcement in San José Chiapa. The high-end immigration is only set to continue, as Mercedes-Benz and Jaguar-Land Rover have both announced plans to set up manufacturing operations there.
Mercedes is the big news here, as its new facility will see the German manufacturer invest 170-million euros for production of its next-generation C-Class and upcoming GLA-Class. "Brazil is an important future market. With our local production we accept the challenge and take on the competition," noted Andreas Renschler, Management Board member for Production and Procurement at Mercedes-Benz Cars and Mercedes-Benz Vans. Production is expected to begin by 2016.
Jaguar-Land Rover, meanwhile, isn't so concrete in its plans. The news of its investment in South America comes from a job posting for a plant quality manager in Brazil that was picked up by the UK's AutoCar. "Portuguese language skills will be definite advantage" for interested candidates, according to the job listing. The want ad follows on the heels of remarks by Jaguar Land Rover's Dr. Ralph Speth, who said there are "very intensive discussions" with Brazil's government. Unlike Mercedes, there's no mention of which vehicles will be produced in South America, although AutoCar thinks the Freelander, sold in the US as the LR2, is a leading contender.
