It is a 1984 not a 1980 Ebay doesn't recognize the vin

I bought this defender from Wales on 3/19 of this year, I did all of my research to make sure it is 100 percent legal before I Imported it. On 4/22/2014 it landed at the port of Brunswick Georgia. The Land Rover Cleared customs in two day! The vehicle has had a mild restoration that is 98 percent complete. When I received it, it was nice but not perfect so I set out trying to make a 1984 defender perfect. All the bushing in the suspension are new, the brake lines and wheel cylinders are new, the steering box is rebuilt, radiator has been clean and pressure tested all hoses are new. Fuel sending unit is new, Diesel injectors and glow plugs are new, V belts are new, the engine has been out and head the cylinder head checked and new seals put in and all new gaskets the truck doesn't leak any oil!  I have the receipts for this which you can verify! The Land Rover was painted recently before it shipped from the UK and looks good! The bulkhead has had some repairs but are sound and there are no known rust issues with it now see pictures. This defender drives better than a 97 defender does. The odometer show 64000 miles I have no way of knowing if that is correct. The defender smokes on startup when cold, it needs rear brakes it has Chinese drums on the rear but I am including brand new brake shoes with it. The battery light sometimes comes on as it is on now but it runs and starts fine even with the lights on. There is some bubbling on the rear door see picture. The gas cap leaks when full. The passenger side window you have to help it to roll up. The vehicle is registered in my name in Georgia and will come with a certified bill of sale and the tag receipt so you can register it and get a title outside of Georgia. Georgia will not issue a title on a pre 1986 vehicle. Georgia collect all my customs papers when I registered it I can get a copy of  if you need it. This is a really nice truck the truck also comes with some more spare parts and the third seat for the front as well it has Britt part center console in it now. The only reason I am selling is I am buying a new house. If any questions call me Brian Brown 1-423-595-6831. ebay will not recognize the vin it is SALLDVAC7AA216119

Jaguar to offer high-performance SVR models like Land Rover?

Tue, 01 Jul 2014

At the Goodwood Festival of Speed this past weekend, Land Rover previewed its upcoming performance version of the Range Rover Sport. Only instead of wearing the R-S badge that adorns the most hardcore of Jaguar models, the performance SUV from JLR's Special Operations unit introduced the letters SVR. And now, it seems that badge is here to stay.
Following the Range Rover Sport SVR, a new report from Motor Authority now says that Jaguar Land Rover will use those letters to distinguish the top-of-the-line performance models from both marques moving forward. As such, we might expect SVR models of the upcoming Jaguar XE compact sedan and Land Rover Discovery Sport, as well as potential new performance models based on the new F-Type and next-generation XF.
If accurate, the move would seem to separate Jaguar in particular from the R-S badge that has adorned performance models like the XFR-S and XKR-S. Both Audi and Porsche use the letters RS to distinguish its most hardcore models as well (e.g. Audi RS7 Sportback and Porsche 911 GT3 RS). Whether the similarity was a factor in shifting to the SVR moniker, we don't know, but either way, we welcome the arrival of a new generation of Jaguar and Land Rover performance models - especially if they pack the 575-horsepower version of the company's ubiquitous 5.0-liter supercharged V8. Not incidentally, that delicious powerplant gained a couple of new engine bays to call home at Goodwood as well - it's not just found in the forthcoming Range Rover Sport SVR, it's found a home in the F-Type Project 7, too.

Jaguar Land Rover opens winter testing facility in Minnesota

Wed, 12 Dec 2012

As it begins the rollout of the all-wheel-drive Jaguar XJ and XF models, Jaguar Land Rover has just announced that it has opened a new facility in northern Minnesota for winter testing. Located in International Falls, MN (on the US and Canadian border), the British automaker says it is one of the coldest locations in the Continental US. Jaguar's new Instinctive All Wheel Drive system was developed primarily to help sell more cars in the northern US, so it only makes sense to open a testing area in the US as well.
With temperatures that can drop to minus 55 degrees Fahrenheit, International Falls was chosen to mimic some of the worst weather a Jaguar or Land Rover will ever see. The grounds house testing chambers, various road surfaces and even a frozen lake. This new facility complements the hot-weather testing grounds in Phoenix, AZ.
The official press release is posted below.

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.
