1986 Land Rover Defender 90, Ex Mod With Turret on 2040-cars
Bryan, Texas, United States
1986 Land Rover Defender 90, Ex Mod, 2.5 SALLDVAC7AA311719 78627 km I am proud to place up for sale a very
rare and unique ex mod land rover defender 90. Only a handful of these were
produced with a turret hatch. I believe this is the only one in the states. I
could be wrong. But when was the last time you saw a landy 90 with a turret
hatch bombing it down the highway? I have been driving it around where I live
(bryan, texas) and it drives real nice. Smooth diesel 2.5 and the lt77 gearbox
shifts very well. Everything works as it should. For a 25 year old defender this has to be one of the best frames that I
have seen in a long time. No splitting of metal and everything looks solid. I
also like the fact its fully original and nothing has been coated to hide any
imperfections and problems. I think you know what I mean? When sellers spray
500 layers of undercoating to hide any problem areas. Slight scrape to the
passenger side door skin. If push comes to shove I can replace the door. All
doors do look great inside. No bad rusting. I was thinking of repainting the
Rover but I think it looks great as it does. Just released from the middle
east. This is pretty much as I received it from the MOD. A very nice, sold and
super rare defender. It is RHD from factory. My daily driver here in TX is a
RHD 90 and its never really bothered me, however you can convert over to a LHD.
Each to their own. Also if you really hate the turret just remove it and convert to a soft top. Exmoor trim have some great conversion kits. This Rover comes with a new clean and clear texas vehicle title. *PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A 1986 DEFENDER NOT A 1980. EBAY DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THIS VIN AS IT IS AN IMPORTED VEHICLE

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.
Jaguar Land Rover calls in handful of vehicles over suspension bolts
Thu, 24 Apr 2014With most recalls seemingly affecting mass-market vehicles, it'd be all too easy to assume, consciously or otherwise, that higher-end automobiles never face such issues. But the main reason we don't see the NHTSA recalling more luxury automobiles isn't because of their quality, we'd postulate: it's because of their relative scarcity.
Take Jaguar Land Rover, recalls of whose vehicles we only seem to have cause to report about once a year. So if you're figuring they're about due, here you go. The Indian-owned British auto group has just announced two recalls, both regarding suspension components: one affecting Jaguars and another concerning - you guessed it - Land Rovers.
First up we have a recall for 2013 to 2014 model year Jaguar XJ, XF and XK models - a whopping 297 of them - which have been found to have problematic toe links. Separation of the toe link from the rear sub-frame could result in impaired stability and control over the vehicle's direction, so JLR is calling them in to replace the nuts and washers on the rear toe links.
Land Rover knows where you're going and how you want to get there
Thu, 10 Jul 2014Land Rover makes some of the most capable SUVs on or off the road, and some of the most luxurious too. But the British automaker isn't about to rest on those laurels - not when every other automaker assaults its territory with sport-utes of their own. That's why Land Rover has been working so hard on nifty new technologies from a depth-sounder in the door mirror of the Range Rover Sport an augmented-reality head-up display that makes the whole front of the car virtually disappear.
JLR's newest tech may not be ground-breaking, but its integration promises to make driving around town that much easier. The system syncs with the driver's smartphone and uses all manner of parameters - including driver habits, weather and location as well as the presence of other passengers - to make the commute go as smoothly as possible. Get into the car and it'll set the seat and mirrors for you. No big deal, because lots of cars do that. But it'll also set up the nav system to take you to work and the sound system to play your favorite music. Okay, getting more interesting.
Get in with your kids and it'll know not only that you've got to drop them off at school first (or remind you to pack their gym bag if they've got soccer practice after school that day) but that they might not enjoy that Chumbawamba album you've been listening to since college and it'll play something it knows you'll all enjoy based on your listening history. Then it'll switch back to Tubthumping once the kids are out, remind you of your morning meeting and alert those you're scheduled to meet with if you get stuck in traffic while finding you a better route to get there, monitoring fuel levels all the while and telling you if you'll need to tank up before you reach your destination. It knows if you like calling your mother on the drive to work and will lower the air suspension to make it easier to hop out once you get there.
