Beautifully rebuilt 1988 Defender 110. Ebay doesnt recognize UK VINs. Frame off restoration carried out by professional Land Rover restoration shop in the UK with no detail over looked. Glavanized frame (this will never rust, ever), 300 TDi power plant with 86k miles on it, not even broken in for these bullet proof motors. R380 gearbox. New cloth exmoor techno seats. All door frames and undersides in perfect condition. New high back seats in the rear, new headliner, fold up side sets and new alloy wheels.....oh, and did I mention it is LEFT HAND DRIVE??
The challenge with most of the other 110's out there are they are either right hand drive (which is a pain to drive) or they are in terrible shape or you have one built for $75k. This pristine example of a Defender 110 needs nothing and is 100% turn key ready to go. You can even convince the wife to let you have this with the left hand drive. See the attached pics and I will have more next week. Will also get a video up shortly as well. This truck is ready to go and priced very competitively.
I also have it for sale locally and reserve the right to take the listing down. $1000 deposit non-refundable required at time of sale. Good Luck!!
Additional info: I have already had a number of questions regarding the truck and price. Please don't ask 'How much will I take?' or 'What is bottom dollar?'. The price is $45k and is a gift at that. This truck is in the US and ready to go. Search around for rebuilds of this caliber and you will be quoted $75k+ all day long. I will take the listing down with a Buy It Now action and $1000 deposit. Only then will I take the listing down. This is a first come, first serve listing. Thanks.

Jaguar Land Rover opens winter testing facility in Minnesota
Wed, 12 Dec 2012As 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 in talks for Southern US factory
Mon, 20 Oct 2014Jaguar 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.
Ford's J Mays feels vindicated by Fusion reception
Tue, 25 Sep 2012It's hard to think back now, but the same man overseeing the design of the 2013 Ford Fusion also presided over a rather lackluster period in Ford design, highlighted by vehicles like the Five Hundred and Freestyle. With the redesigned Fusion receiving high praise, J Mays tells Automotive News that he feels vindicated from criticisms suggesting he's not a daring enough designer.
When Mays took over as lead of design in 1997, he admits to having quite an ego ("My head would barely fit through the door some days. I've long since gotten over myself") and the workload to match. With the Blue Oval's portfolio full of premium brands like Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo at that point, along with the bread-and-butter Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models, Mays certainly had quite the challenge.
It was in the mid-2000s that Mays took over just the premium brands, and took on the new title of Chief Creative Officer. At the time, Mays endured some criticism for looking backwards to retro styling, rather than setting a new standard for American car design - criticism that Mays says he is free from with the all-new Fusion.
