Runs and drives as good as new Only 15k miles on this 2.5NA Diesel MOD (Ministry of Defense)Engine and Rebuilt trans. Paint is original,somewhat faded, a few scratches and a dimple on the front right fender, adds character. Frame is solid. I purchased this right hand drive 110 Hardtop from a private importer in 2009. It was imported from England, I have repair records dating back to 2005 that came with it. The Chassis has 166k on it. The engine was installed in May 2010. by Rob at Southwest Rovers in NM at which time he also installed a bench built late model LT77 5 speed trans, and new exhaust ststem. This Rover has Power Steering and is a pleasure to drive. It is easier than you might think to getting used to driving a right hand drive and everyone who sees this truck will tell you how "cool" it is. During the three years I have owned the truck I have replaced the shocks, axel seals and drive shaft seals along with new brakes all around. The tires are 255/85/16 BF Goodrich MT KM2 mounted w inner tubes, with only 9k on em and a 2" lift. Absolutely no rubbing, even when articulated(see photo). The stereo sounds great with a speaker in each door, two mounted in the upper rear corners in custom enclosures, and a self powered sub mounted behind the center seat. Great for those road trips. Will do 70mph but Cruises comfortably at 65. Custom interior door skins of Aluminum sprayed black including a generous cup/bottle holder, wide pocket and armrest that's right where you need it. I fabricated an overhead sunglasses and misc storage tray overhead as well. The ceiling is lined with a poly based black sound deadening material. The rear area is set up with removable plywood floor that is lockable and provides a flat surface that will hold a full size air mattress for a good nights sleep while traveling or hunting/ fishing, camping trips. I mounted a cargo box for gear onto the custom aluminum rack, on our trips to save the space for the sleeping area. Pictured are lockable storage areas in front of the rear tires that are accessible from inside the truck. As you can see a 5 gal Jerry Can fits in there easily along with foldable army shovel. This Rover is 100% road worthy US legal and is currently registered in MD with historic plates. It's ready to go wherever you want to take it. Cover my travel expenses and ill drive it to you. Or pick it up yourself and enjoy the ride. Reasonable reserve. Feel free to contact me if you need more info

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.
This Or That: 1987 VW Vanagon Syncro vs. 1987 Land Rover Defender [w/poll]
Thu, 13 Nov 2014As I scoured auction sites and classified ads for the perfect vehicle to take into battle with Autoblog Associate Editor Brandon Turkus, I knew I needed to find something unique. You see, I'm currently 0-2 at winning a round of This or That, in which two of our editors agree on a category, choose a side, and argue it out over a (mostly) friendly chain of emails.
The first time we did this, my chosen Fiat 500 Abarth took about a third of the popular vote in our reader poll. The second time, my lovely 1980 Oldsmobile 442 did just a little bit better against a 1989 BMW 635 CSi. Despite holding the opinion that my automotive choices, though perhaps a little bit more... obscure than my fellow editors, are still better, an outright win would go a long way toward boosting my vehicular self worth a few notches upward.
With all of that out of the way, even if three isn't my lucky number after all, I go into battle against Brandon knowing full well that I've made the perfect choice: A 1987 Volkswagen Vanagon Syncro. My rough-and-tumble van/'ute has a formidable opponent in the form of a 1987 Land Rover Defender, which, truth be told, is exactly what I was expecting from Turkus, a self-proclaimed Rover aficionado.
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."
