Location:
|
This vehicle is in excellent original military condition, and served
with the Regiment that mans the guns at Edinburgh Castle, Scotland. A
soft top with roll cage, and tailgate are fitted. The vehicle also comes with
the original military updated trim on the interior. Conversion to LHD is also
possible here in the USA. VIN: SALLDVAC7AAxxxxxx This British Army Land Rover Defender 90 is exceptional.
It served 26 years and was serviced meticulously. All the panels are like new,
the paint is original Land Rover military green. The interior is the latest
military upgrade to these trucks, seats covered with Outlast (Exmoor trim)
fabric for durability and use in hot and extreme climates. In the back, bench
seats with fully retractable seat belts provide seating for four. The
tailgate has the original digging tools fitted. The engine is the original heavy duty British Army
diesel, with a design that has been tested in an arduous 500hour durability
test. The truck odometer shows just over 22,000 km, confirmed on the
military retirement certificate. The odometer was changed at 10999 km so the total vehicle mileage is likely to be
more. The vehicle is in Virginia Beach with full clear
Virginia title and all customs paperwork appropriately stamped during its import process. The Defender has a VA state inspection, is exempt EPA emissions
testing, and as it is older than 25 years old, exempt from DOT regulations as
an antique.
The truck is totally stock military spec and drives
very well. All seals and the drive train have been inspected, and timing belt
changed. It has Land Rover power assisted steering fitted. This Land Rover Defender 90 served with 105 Regt RA (V) for 26 years, eventually retiring from the British Army at the end of 2012. The regiment commemorated the 61st anniversary of Her Majesty The Queen's accession to the throne at Edinburgh Castle. In Scotland, 7 Feb 2013, gunners from 105 Regiment Royal Artillery (Volunteers) fired a 21-gun royal salute at Edinburgh Castle, Scotland. Commanding Officer
of 105 Regiment Royal Artillery, Lieutenant Colonel James Cook, said: “The regiment is
honoured to fire the royal salute at Edinburgh Castle to commemorate the
accession of Her Majesty The Queen.
The royal salute
provides a great occasion for the gunners to display their professionalism and
pride in conducting such an honour in Scotland’s capital city.” |

Tata to get Jaguar and Land Rover tech, platforms too?
Tue, 22 Jul 2014Since buying Jaguar Land Rover, Indian automaker Tata has generally left its luxury arm's platforms and technology alone. However, those days might be gone. The two of them are gradually growing closer with coordinated development and rumors of shared platforms. And it looks like all of that work and money is finally going to pay off with an actual vehicle in the near future.
According to Australian website Drive, Tata wants to make its cars more attractive to buyers outside of India, and to do that the company knows it must improve quality. The Indian company is being careful, though, because it doesn't want to dilute the Jaguar or Land Rover brands with cheap models. "You're going to see in the future a lot of sharing of technologies and platforms over time, but you won't see a JLR with a Tata badge on it," said Darren Bowler, managing director of Tata's Australian distributor, to Drive.
According to Bowler, these future vehicles are already on the way. Tata and JLR have a global platform in the works for 2017 that both companies could use for cars or crossovers. He also hinted that Jaguar's new Ingenium engines could be shared among the brands in the future, too.

Ferrari exec to lead Jaguar North America
Tue, 06 Aug 2013Jaguar has announced that Jeff Curry will be serving as the brand's new North American vice president, effective August 13. The move is a coup for Jag, which lured Curry away from his previous posting as VP of marketing for Ferrari North America, and is further evidence of just how strong Jaguar's comeback has gotten.
Curry has spent over 20 years in the auto industry, and has worked with Audi, SiriusXM and Land Rover, where he made his start in the industry. His primary responsibilities with Jaguar will cover marketing communications, customer relationship management, and product planning.
Jaguar Land Rover's North American president, Andy Goss, heaped praise on the brand's newest addition saying, "Jeff brings with him extensive automotive and luxury marketing experience, critical expertise in leading-edge technologies and a personal passion for automobiles."
