You are viewing on truly outstanding all original condition Defender 90 with a fabulous sounding 3.5 V8 original engine with original bodywork and panels and a 5 speed manual transmission. Drives like it just came out the factory, with perfectly tuned carbs and a V8 which purrs along nicely in the city or highway.
Imported into the U.S completely legally in April and has been with me since then and now fully PA registered with a clean title. No repair jobs have been needed since i have had it for nearly a year now. It is in complete clean rust free condition and a fully waxoiled chassis. The rear cross member has been professionally replaced and also waxoiled. It is mechanically and body wise excellent. Optional factory power steering The paintwork is great and comes with powder coated original Land Rover wheels. All tyres have plenty tread left, spare is brand new, and the interior is completely clean and well maintained with no stains, rips or tears. Comes with a lot of history by specialist and reputable garages in the UK. Restoration work which has been completed includes; reconditioned: gear box, transfer box, twin carbs and a fully waxoiled chassis. New exhaust system, new alternator, new distributor, new spark plugs and leads. All the doors are in great condition along with the bulkhead and the footwells, which are usually the common places for finding trouble. Its all original spec from factory and has been well cared for throughout its life and deserves to spend more time on the road to another loving owner, In order to list it i had to use a VIN from another younger car, the actual vin is: SALLDVBV7AA234185 with the plate still visible on the car. The pictures do not do this great car justice and requires a visual inspection to understand its true condition. All viewings are welcome and i'm happy to answer all questions. Please do not request my lowest price. If you are interested then please send me sensible offers or continue bidding. Rest assured, this is probably one of the best maintained, original and best kept defenders in the USA with realistic low reserve. Thanks for looking. |

Jaguar opens new engine plant in the UK
Thu, 30 Oct 2014The heads of Jaguar Land Rover are having a busy couple of weeks opening factories. Just days after inaugurating the company's first overseas plant in China, the automaker's new Engine Manufacturing Center in the UK is being inaugurated, as well. The plant near Wolverhampton, England, marks the first time in decades that JLR is building its own powerplants in-house. Further signaling the importance of this launch for the business, Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip were on hand and even tweeted about it.
The factory's first major project is to build JLR's latest Ingenium four-cylinders, starting with the 2.0-liter diesel version. "Our new Engine Manufacturing Centre is an important step in advancing the competitiveness and capability of the UK automotive sector. The production of in-house engines will support the expansion of the UK supply chain providing critical mass for inward investment," said Trevor Leeks, plant operations director in the automaker's announcement.
Opening the doors to the Engine Manufacturing Center has been years in the making for JLR. The plant was first announced in September 2011 and broke ground in June 2012. Building it cost the company 500 million pounds ($800 million) and created 1,400 new jobs. Of course, being a state-of-the-art factory, considerations were made to make the place as energy efficient as possible. That meant installing the UK's largest solar array with 21,000 panels to produce about 30 percent of the site's electricity needs.
Jaguar Land Rover and Chery investing in Chinese plant
Sat, 24 Nov 2012While the European auto market for Jaguar and Land Rover is waning, Chinese car buyers can't get enough of the British marques. To meet that demand, Tata Motors, parent company of Jag and Land Rover, is partnering with Chinese automaker Chery Automobile Co.
The two announced plans to invest $1.75 billion to build a new plant and create a new, China-focused brand. 2014 is the target for completion of the factory. Jaguars and Land Rovers built at the facility will be the first ever produced outside the UK according to the Associated Press. The JV will be called Chery Jaguar Land Rover Automotive Company Ltd.
The announcement comes less than a month after JLR announced it would open a design studio in China. It's not clear from the reports whether the two announcements are part of the same JV or two separate plans.
Jaguar Land Rover may build factory in Saudi Arabia
Tue, 11 Dec 2012The Middle East is one of the fastest-growing markets for Land Rover, so it makes sense that the automaker is looking to set up shop in the region. According to Automotive News, Jaguar Land Rover is in talks with the people of Saudi Arabia to build a factory in the country at an expected initial cost of $1.2 billion. Still in the early stage of talks, the proposed facility could start up by 2017 using locally sourced materials such as steel and aluminum.
Such an arrangement could be beneficial for both entities as Saudi Arabia looks to diversify its oil-reliant economy and Land Rover could get local production capacity of around 50,000 units. The report also says that the agreement talks about the possibility for Jaguar models to be built at the same plant further down the road.
This won't be the first vehicle produced in Saudi Arabia - that honor goes to the KSU Gazal-1 - but it will be the first from a major global automaker.
