This is our latest customer feedback:

 

Hi guys…

I wanted to write you a brief note to compliment you on the quality of the LRD110 I purchased from you off EBay.  I have now used the truck for 6 months with trouble-free service.  I have had a few repairs done by two separate LRD specialists (one near each of my houses) both of whom have heavily praised the truck’s condition given its age.  I have purchased two vehicles off of EBay – and I’m sure you guys know that it can be risky.  Thanks for being so diligent in finding this clean original specimen!  The experience has been ”just what I wanted”.

Best regards,
j.d.

The Vehicle

As you can see above, lots of work has been done and even more money has been spend to make this land rover technically perfect. It’s originally from Birmingham, UK, where it spend most of its life being a second car of a land rover enthusiast. He used it to go camping in the woods and to go fishing. Therefore the relatively low mileage.

The Engine

The 2.5 liter 4 cylinder diesel engine, is one of the best and most reliable engines land rover ever build. They’re made to last forever, are easy to maintain and never let you down. Not the quickest of all engines but very reliable. Due to new engine mounting rubbers, the vehicle vibrates a bit now but this will go away once the rubbers soften by use.

The Transmission

Is a 5 speed manual transmission. Both gearbox and transferbox work excellent. No weird noises, rattles or what so ever. Selecting gears goes smooth as it should. The Defender is permanently in 4 wheel drive. High/low gear and differential lock are present and work perfectly. The gear knob is below and next to the gearbox stick.

The Body

The aluminum body is in a good condition. Of course you can see here and there that it isn’t new, some scratches and age marks. But for a 27 year old vehicle, it is beautiful! The bulkhead and foot wells are clean and rust free. The doors are totally straight. There is some rust at the bottoms, which isn’t visible from the outside and isn’t bad. Something that is very typical for a Defender. Now water that enters the inside of the doors through the windows can easily flow out. The windows work as they should. The locks all work and on the same key.

The Defender has a tow bar with electrics. Also a robust roof rack is mounted with big new Wipac lights. They can be switched on and off by a switch behind the stick.

The Chassis

The complete chassis is in perfect condition. It is hard and strong as to expect from this car. It has been coated with a special impregnation substance that prevents rust and keeps it strong. This was done every two years by the previous owner. The chassis number or VIN is clearly visible. The VIN is:

SALLDHAC7BA304107

SALManufacturer code: Land Rover
LDModel: Defender (for early models: Ninety, or One Ten)
HWheel base: 110 inch
aBody type: 2-door: hard top
cEngine type: 2.5 litre diesel (model 12J)
7Steering and transmission: Right-hand drive (RHD), 5-speed manual
bModel year: 1985-1987
AAssembly location: Solihull, UK
304107Serial number

The Interior

The inside of the vehicle is clean and tidy. The seats are leather Jaguar brown/beige and in very good condition. There is a brand new black cubby box between the seats to store your stuff. The load space is big and has 2 benches. There is a new rubber mat on the floor to prevent sliding of goods.

The Tires

The Defender has got 5 general grabber all terrain tires which are almost like new, mounted on the popular “Boost Alloy” wheels.

Service

It has just got a full service. All the oils and lubricants in the axles, gearbox, transfer box and so one have been refreshed. The Defender’s power steering system is in excellent condition. No play at all in the steering wheel, which is rather strange for a classic Defender.

Trying to be as honest as possible, I need to mention that the bottom of the left door has some rust, which isn’t bad but I have to mention it.

Finally, because the engine has just got new mounting rubbers, which need to get a little flexible, the Defender vibrates a little more when stationary. This will decrease quickly.


Customs, title and delivery

The vehicle passed all DOT and DMV test/inspections and is 100% USA legal. Furthermore, in contrast to a lot of Defenders for sale on ebay, this Defender is already in the USA, Maryland, and has cleared customs, meets all EPA & DOT regulations and is ready to be titled. All necessary paperwork will be included.

Where needed, we can assist with the titling as we have got the experience.

DELIVERY ANYWHERE IN THE US OR CANADA IS POSSIBLE. FOR INFORMATION ON DELIVERY CALL STRYDER ON +1 4062702028


Deposit, Payment, Title

To secure the Land Rover, we require a deposit of $500,-. The remaining amount by bank transfer on the day of transportation.

After the full amount has been transferred and the car is delivered, all necessary paperwork will be send by Express delivery.

Our Story

We started our Land Rover journey with a dream, driving a classic Defender from cape to cape. That means from the North-cape in Norway to Cape town, South Africa. Therefore we refurbished a 1986 3 door Land Rover Defender 110, and modified her to a camper van. After that, she was mechanically and optically sound to make this incredible journey. By the time our project finished, we were addicted… So we started our own business to buy, refurbish and sell classic Defenders.

This is a big adventure which makes lots of fun and gives even more happiness! Especially our happy and enthusiastic customers who still give us updates on their Land Rover experience. This makes us even more motivated to do our utmost best to deliver a high quality end product.

We don’t do every Defender that crosses our path.  We only do the ones we love.  As a Defender is not just another car, used to travel from A to B. Every Defender has its own character and emotional experience. And when you work with passion on something that you love, the only outcome possible is positive.

After 30 very successful projects we have harvested a huge amount of knowledge. Together with a team of very enthusiastic and experienced land rover mechanics we are able to deliver a beautiful and high quality Defender.

We can’t guarantee that you will have a trouble free experience with these classic beauties given their age, that would be unreal, but we can guarantee that we checked, repaired/renewed and checked again all parts!

The only question that has left... 

Are you Landventurous enough to drive your Dreamfender?

Jaguar Land Rover creates new Special Operations division for halo vehicles, bespoke commissions

Fri, 13 Jun 2014

Jaguar Land Rover has announced that a new division of the British manufacturer will be dedicated to "bespoke commissions," as well as heritage products and apparel. Oh, and the new Special Operations division will also be behind JLR's halo cars from now on.
It's that last one that is the most tantalizing, as the last real halo product to see production from Jaguar was the XJ220. The Range Rover, meanwhile, has always had its own kind of halo reputation, although the Land Rover brand itself has never really gotten into the game with a dedicated model.
According to JLR, the new halo models will focus on ultra-high performance and luxury with a limited run of vehicles. The bespoke models, meanwhile, will give the wealthiest customers full sway over how vehicles are outfitted, with unique paints, trims and other accessories. The new SpecOps division will be run by John Edwards.

Mazda CX-5 named Japan's Car of The Year, Subaru BR-Z wins "Special Award"

Mon, 03 Dec 2012

The Mazda CX-5 stamped its Kodo design and SkyActiv technology authority all over the Japan Car of the Year awards, taking the top prize ahead of the Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT 86. It is Mazda's second victory in the last ten years, the 2005 MX-5 claiming the same trophy, and the fourth time the Hiroshima company has won.
The award is decided by 60 local "automotive experts and journalists," and open to any passenger car released in Japan from November 1, 2011 to October 31, 2012 that has sold more than 500 units. Each judge gets 25 votes, his or her top vote getting 10 points, the rest of the points being spread among the judge's choice for the next best four cars.
The second-place getters were the Toyobaru twins with 318 votes, the surprise being they didn't beat or get any closer to the crossover. The Subaru BRZ did claw some mojo back, earning the Special Award given to cars that have made "an exceptional impact." The BMW 3 Series was third overall and won the Import Car of the Year award with plenty of room between it and the second place Range Rover Evoque.

Jaguar demanding customer data from reluctant dealers

Tue, 25 Feb 2014


Nearly every major business is collecting consumer data these days, and keeping that data secure has come to the forefront of many customer's minds. Jaguar Land Rover North America's decision to begin requesting more customer info from its dealer network appears unfortunately timed, however. If it had come a few years ago, it might have been ignored, but in today's climate of heightened awareness, a few dealers are pushing back. To put the showrooms in an even tougher position, JLR NA is threatening to deny quarterly incentives if they do not turn over the customer data, according to Automotive News.
JLR NA instated the nationwide plan, which it calls Single View CRM, on February 7, but according to Stuart Schorr, Jaguar Land Rover North America Vice President of Communications, the automaker has been negotiating with its dealers to institute the new program for over a year. Schorr tells Autoblog that no financial information is being shared, noting that such data is limited to customer details, including things like what vehicles they own and whether they have any pending service. The initiative is meant to "improve customers' and owners' engagement with the brand," he said. Also, the company is not accessing dealer data itself; instead showrooms are asked to enter the info into JLR's database.
