FAQ'S


1) How Much Does Shipping To The USA Cost - Shipping to the East Coas (Brunswick, Charleston, Baltimore, New York etc) is $2100 USD and to the West is $2600


2) Will The Vehicle Pass US Customs Clearance - I have now exported over 50 Landrovers to the United States and have not had an issue with any of them. As long as the vehicle is over 25 years old and has the original engine and chassis with matching numbers on the VIN plate and UK title everything is guaranteed to be accepted. All my vehicles are checked by myself to ensure everything is correct.

Hi and welcome to my advert for this original 1984 Landrover Defender 90 pickup truck in a green colour. The Landrover has covered a low 96,000 miles and has the 2.5 diesel engine which is linked to a 5 speed manual transmission. It is a permanent four wheel drive vehicle and has 5 months of the UK MOT yearly safety test remaining. This is an unrestored original that is ready to be used and appreciated.


The Landrover is very solid in all the usual weak areas. The bulkheas is in good shape as you can see from the images. Similarly, the door frames are in good shape along with the floor pans. There are many images of the chassis at the bottom of the listing so please take a look throught them. There are the usual odd little dings in the body but this is what these Landrovers are about. The paint is finished in green and it looks like it has been hand painted at some point. The finish is presentable but not of showroom quality which again in my opinion is how these Landrovers should be. The tyres are all good and they are of an off road nature.


The interior is in good condition. The 3 front seats that are finished in a leather/vinyl material are in good shape with no wear or rips at all. They are very comfortable yet supportive at the same time. The door cards are in good shape and are nicely secured to the doors. The dashboard is in good shape apart from in the middle where you can see where a stereo has once been. The roof is nice and clean. All seat belts work and the doors lock as they ought to. The wind windows all work without fault.


Mechanically the Landrover is superb and I cannot fault it. The engine has all been rebuilt recently and runs nice and quietly for a diesel. The engine itself is a 2.5 diesel which is couple to a 5 speed manual transmission. The Landrover will cruise up to 70 mph meaning that it can cope with Freeway driving if needed. The gearbox is excellent and is nice and quiet. The clutch etc are all good. There are no nasty noises and the truck drives very nicely indeed and is very fun to drive. The great thing about these Landrovers are along with being the best 4x4 in the World it will achieve 30 mpg upwards and better than this, it will put a smile on your face. The heaters all work as they ought to.

Jaguar Land Rover in talks for Southern US factory

Mon, 20 Oct 2014

Jaguar Land Rover is getting serious about global expansion, and that means it can't only build its vehicles in the UK anymore. The British automaker is cutting the ribbon at its new plant in China tomorrow, marking the opening of its first factory outside the UK. In 2016, it will open another factory in Brazil. But the latest intel has it that JLR is looking into a US factory, as well.
The report, which comes to us from the Sunday Times by way of Automotive News Europe, indicates that the company is evaluating locations for a North American factory, with options centering around Southern right-to-work states like South Carolina, where BMW operates its plant in Spartanburg and a wide array of other automotive operations are based as well. The JLR plant would reportedly ramp up to a capacity of 200,000 units per year.
In related news, while that new plant JLR is inaugurating in Changshu, China, is initially slated to produce the Range Rover Evoque, it is also expected to start building the new Discovery Sport as well - just like the Halewood plant in the UK that has handled Evoque assembly from the start and which just built its first Discovery Sport, as well.

Jaguar Land Rover puts the freeze on wounded soldier-athletes [w/video]

Mon, 21 Jul 2014

For athletes, the cold is often a powerful ally in treating injures, with RICE (rest, ice, compression and elevation) a popular means of treating muscle pulls, bruising and other common forms of discomfort. Did you know, though, that frosty temps are also popular tools for simply recovering from a rough training session?
Well, we're guessing Jaguar Land Rover knew that, as the British company was kind enough to loan out its climactic testing chamber to Jaco van Gass and Luke Darlington, a pair of veterans wounded in their service to Queen and Country. Van Gass, a former private in the Royal Army, and Darlington, a Royal Marine, are attempting to earn a spot on the British Armed Forces cycling team for the upcoming Invictus Games.
The Games, inspired by the Warrior Games held in the United States, are a sporting competition reserved for injured servicemen and women, either active duty or veterans, and is slated to take place from September 10 to 14 in London's former Olympic venues. Van Gass lost his left arm below the elbow after getting hit by a rocket-propelled grenade (he also suffered from a collapsed lung, punctured internal organs, severe shrapnel and blast wounds, a broken tibia and a fractured knee). Darlington, meanwhile, suffered a traumatic brain injury during action in Afghanistan, and he now suffers from weakness in his right side and cognitive issues.

Jaguar crossover won't be based on Evoque or have off-road chops

Wed, 21 Aug 2013

Jaguar's long-rumored crossover won't be built on the same platform as the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque, says the Australian site Car Advice. The future of the new CUV remains uncertain, but if Jaguar does dip its toes into the SUV/crossover pool, though, the new vehicle will likely be a car-based soft roader, lacking (or perhaps more appropriately, not needing) the off-road-engineered chops inherent in Land Rover's small CUV platform.
Jaguar product planner Steven De Ploey explained to Car Advice, "There's many groups around the world [platform sharing] - obviously Volkswagen Group is doing it all the time - but I think we have to be careful. He added, "Jaguar is something quite different... It's about capability, but very much on-road focused capability." That seems to gel with our suspicions that the XQ, as it's expected to be called, will share its platform with an upcoming small Jaguar sedan, the oft-rumored X-Type successor.
Still, we'd recommend taking any mention of a Jaguar crossover with a grain of salt. Based on many of the (quite compelling) statements made by De Ploey against a Jag crossover and previous statements made by Jag's design boss, Ian Callum, the case against a leaper-bearing crossover seems strong. If a high-rider were to arrive from Jaguar, though, the article insinuates that it'd be more in line with the BMW X6 or upcoming X4 - sort of a coupe-based crossover. Like we said, grain of salt. If a Jag crossover is going to arrive soon, the upcoming Frankfurt Motor Show is the most likely locale for its debut. We'll find out in a few weeks.
