This is a nice, well equipped, example of a rare NAS 5-speed station wagon. Only 500 were ever made, and each one is numbered. They are just as rare as the much coveted 1993 NAS 110. This Defender looks, runs and drives very well and is one of the quicker ones I have ever driven. The R380 Transmission shifts very nice. It is a blast to drive.
I have spent over six thousand dollars on it within the last one thousand miles. Most of this was servicing to make it ready to go anywhere. This is normal for a Defender of this age to be due for a substantial amount of work. Most of the other Defenders you see for sale will be needing this type of attention. , even if they look real pretty. It has new oil cooler lines,starter, filters. fluids, etc. I will provide the bills to the new owner.
This Defender has some very nice and very desirable upgraded equipment. This includes a Safety Devices full Roof Rack with ladders, , Safari Gard Front Bumper, Superwinch, Safari Gard Rear Bumperettes, Old Man Emu Shocks and Springs, rock sliders , and skid plates. The roof rack and bumpers can be removed if the buyer would rather not have them. A credit for this equipment would be forthcoming.
This is a great, solid , driver, but is not a garage queen. The frame, bulkhead and floors are nice. It has spent much of its life in Florida. It then travelled with its previous owner to Rhode Island when he relocated. The vehicle is 17 years old and does show some wear ,tear , and age. . There is a dent in the driver's door and a scrape on the driver's rear quarter panel for example. Please call for an honest description.
The vehicle is located in Norwell, Ma. and can be seen by appointment. Professional transportation can be arranged at reasonable rates. Land Rovers have been my passion for the past 15 years and I have been quietly refurbishing , restoring , and selling them to Defender lovers all over the country ever since. My cell is 954-816-8885.

European automakers gear up for Brazilian production
Mon, 07 Oct 2013Brazil is the place to be, apparently. Toyota has been investing in the South American country, as has BMW, which announced a $261 million investment in October 2012, on the heels of an Audi factory announcement in San José Chiapa. The high-end immigration is only set to continue, as Mercedes-Benz and Jaguar-Land Rover have both announced plans to set up manufacturing operations there.
Mercedes is the big news here, as its new facility will see the German manufacturer invest 170-million euros for production of its next-generation C-Class and upcoming GLA-Class. "Brazil is an important future market. With our local production we accept the challenge and take on the competition," noted Andreas Renschler, Management Board member for Production and Procurement at Mercedes-Benz Cars and Mercedes-Benz Vans. Production is expected to begin by 2016.
Jaguar-Land Rover, meanwhile, isn't so concrete in its plans. The news of its investment in South America comes from a job posting for a plant quality manager in Brazil that was picked up by the UK's AutoCar. "Portuguese language skills will be definite advantage" for interested candidates, according to the job listing. The want ad follows on the heels of remarks by Jaguar Land Rover's Dr. Ralph Speth, who said there are "very intensive discussions" with Brazil's government. Unlike Mercedes, there's no mention of which vehicles will be produced in South America, although AutoCar thinks the Freelander, sold in the US as the LR2, is a leading contender.
Going high-tech, the 4x4 way
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Is It An Off-Road Adventure Or Just A Walk In The Park?
I remember having to get out and lock hubs and shift into neutral to engage low range.
Coming off press previews of the 2013 Land Rover Range Rover and the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee that involved some heavy-duty off-road rock climbing, I'm simply amazed at the capabilities that these vehicles possess. But even more impressive (or troubling depending on your perspective) is the relative ease with which you can operate these vehicles in seemingly impossible terrain.
Jaguar may join the FWD, small-car parade
Tue, 13 Aug 2013Was it right for Chevrolet to detune the 1975 Corvette's base engine to 165 horsepower? Was Aston Martin wrong to make the Toyota iQ-based Cygnet? Is BMW crazy to be testing the new 1 Series with three-cylinder engines and front-wheel drive? It seems now, just as in the 1970s and 1980s, that emissions regulations and social considerations are driving some automakers to adopt unbefitting practices to maintain acceptance in the eyes of governments and consumers. Jaguar has jumped on the bandwagon, and is considering development of small, frugal, front-wheel-drive cars to help lower Jaguar Land Rover's average vehicle CO2 levels in light of tightening European emissions regulations, Autocar reports.
By 2020, the European Union expects the model range of every manufacturer to average 95 grams per kilometer, which is a new law passed by the European Parliament in April. Manufacturers who make more than 300,000 vehicles per year must meet these targets, and JLR is expected to be producing up to 700,000 vehicles per year by then. CO2 regulations after 2020 will only get stricter, as EU politicians already are talking about lowering CO2 levels to between 68 g/km and 78 g/km. (To put that in perspective, Autocar posits that driving a fully charged electric vehicle in Europe produces about 75 g/km when factoring in the power-generation infrastructure.)
Jaguar has some choices here, but so far they all have drawbacks. It could develop a new, compact chassis architecture for a line of compact vehicles, but the investment required for such a project could be prohibitively expensive. Jaguar has been looking into using the Land Rover Evoque platform for a small SUV, Autocar reports, but Land Rover brand manager John Edwards raises issue with such a plan, saying it may not be financially feasible.
