This is an extremely rare and unique Land Rover Defender 110.  An absolutely beautiful design, restoration and rebuild of the most iconic 4x4 in history, this 1995 Defender has been designed to replicate the current models sold in other areas of the world today, plus a number of custom upgrades all completed by Defender specialists in the UK before being shipped to Canada. 

This is a one of a kind version of the world’s toughest 4x4 combined with the creature comforts of a city driver, all wrapped with a look and feel that turns heads and gets continuous attention, thumbs up, wide eyes, and drueling. Many enthusiasts have said this is the most beautiful Defender they have ever seen. 

Exterior upgrades include Land Rover’s Bonatti Grey Metallic paint with Black Roof, black diamond plate trims and 17” black alloy wheels wrapped in 285/70/17 BFG All-Terrain tires for a perfect stance and great performance.  Other exterior upgrades include: 

  • -       New puma style hood
  • -       Aftermarket KBX grille and headlight surrounds
  • -       LED clear lens kit front and rear
  • -       Black tube side steps
  • -       All new rear windows and seals
  • -       New front windshield and seal
  • -       All new door seals and bushings
  • -       Stainless Steel bolt kit throughout
  • -       Tinted windows in rear

The interior was completely stripped for paint and rebuilt with all new parts, including:

  • -       New black half Leather high back front seats
  • -       New center console
  • -       New black half Leather rear bench style seat
  • -       New center dash option to house stereo and controls (consistent with newer models)
  • -       New black carpet kit throughout
  • -       Soundproofing kit
  • -       All interior paneling and dash painted black
  • -       Leather wrapped door cards with white stitching, shifter boot and dash trim to match stitching of leather seats
  • -       New Sony CD/MP3/USB stereo with 4 speakers
  • -       Black rubber floor mats for all weather
  • -       New white headliner and additional accessory lights in cargo area 

Mechanically the truck runs on a 300tdi 4-cylinder diesel motor that is known to be one of Land Rover’s most durable engines.  The original motor has 260,000 kms on it before the full spec below.  A thorough mechanical inspection was completed and all worn mechanical parts were replaced, including:

  • -       New disc brake rotors and pads front and rear
  • -       New shocks and springs front and rear
  • -       Exhaust manifold gasket
  • -       Full engine service including gaskets, filters, seals, spill pipes
  • -       Timing belt and tensioners
  • -       Many bushings and bearings throughout
  • -       Exhaust center and aft sections
  • -       Steering dampers
  • -       Much more… 

These motors have been consistently known to go 300,000 miles (approx. 500,000 kms) before needing a rebuild so she’ll be a reliable pusher for years to come.

If you’re after one of North America’s most rare and sought after vehicles this Defender 110 is right up your alley!  She is unlike anything you’ll see driving the streets and is one very special vehicle in absolutely beautiful condition.

I am willing to help coordinate shipping at the buyers expense across Canada.  This vehicle is not admissible to the United States as it does not meet the age requirement (25 years old) to import.

Price Reduced. Must Sell, bought a house.

Jaguar SUV mule doing Ring testing in Evoque clothes

Mon, 28 Apr 2014

Jaguar has moved its Range Rover Evoque-bodied tests of the production C-X17 Concept from icy streets to the legendary Nürburgring, as work continues on the brand's first SUV.
Really, there's not a great deal of new stuff here. Based on the number plates, this is a different vehicle from the one we saw back in March, which we originally identified as the upcoming replacement for the Land Rover Freelander/LR2. The details, though, appear largely the same. The biggest distinction we can see between the March tests and this are the US-spec headlights, which add amber reflectors at their sides. Based on these shots, it does seem as if the C-X17 should be a fairly poised road vehicle, as the engineers hustle it around the 'Ring.
Of course, as soon our spies can capture images of a production-bodied C-X17, we'll be sure to pass those on to you. Until then, take a look up top for images of the Range Rover-bodied Jaguar as it tests at Germany's Nürburgring. You can also scroll down for our March images for the C-X17 mules testing on public roads.

Jaguar Land Rover rescues British off-road tuner Bowler

Wed, Dec 18 2019

Jaguar Land Rover's Special Vehicles Operation (SVO) rescued British off-road tuner Bowler from an uncertain fate. The firm has worked with Land Rover in the past, but it has always been independent. While JLR isn't in an ideal position to make acquisitions, and its recent financial troubles are well documented, Bowler was on the brink of shutting down. The small, 34-year old company had entered administration, and the 26 people it employed risked losing their jobs. Monetary details haven't been released, meaning we don't know how much Bowler was worth, but the firm pointed out it's now fully owned by SVO. It joins SV, Vehicle Personalization, and Classic as the division's fourth pillar. It's too early to tell precisely where Bowler will fit in the JLR latticework, because the initial focus will be on stabilizing the company. It will remain based in Belper, England, and every member of its full-time staff has been offered a position as a JLR employee. Bowler made a name for itself by turning the original Defender into a rally car, and Land Rover said the expertise it acquired during decades of racing is highly sought after, so that's a hint we'll see more hardcore models developed jointly by the two companies sooner or later. The new Defender would lend itself well to the Bowler treatment. The Bowler name could replace the SVX nameplate used on the stillborn, V8-powered Discovery, for example. The tuner's focus on off-pavement performance means we're unlikely to see a Bowler-badged Jaguar, but anything is possible as global demand for SUVs (especially quick ones) continues to rise. What's certain is that, once Bowler is stable, it will grow bigger.
