Rare Genuine Factory County Station Wagon 7 Seater

Hi and thanks for looking at our listing for this Landrover Defender 90. Unlike many sellers this Landrover is in the USA and comes with all relevant EPA and DOT clearance all ready for the new owner to title. The Landrover is originally from the United Kingdom and it still has 10 months of the UK MOT remaining. For those unfamiliar with the MOT it is a 12 monthly requirement in the UK for all vehicles where they check things such as brakes, lights, steering, chassis, and all round general safety. I have this certificate to hand and will be given to the new keeper which guaranteed you a safe, roadworthy Landrover.

The Vehicle

The Landrover itself is a rare factory County Station Wagon. This means it has the "County" pack which is basically a cloth interior, alloy wheels, alpine windows in the roof and a sunroof etc. Being the Station Wagon means that it has the rare 4 fold down individual seats which would have been factory fitted. You see many Defenders that have had the side windows cut in and bench seats installed and these are inferior compared to these genuine ones as these have all the trim around the windows and roof lining which the others generally do not. The engine is the original 4 cylinder 2.5 diesel which is renowned as being one of the most reliable engines to have in one of these. They will do nearly 35-40 MPG and will achieve speeds up to 80 mph so more than enough for driving on the Freeway.

The Body

The exterior is finished in a white/cream color which is the original color and has not been altered in any way. The paintwork is in good shape and has a good finish to it. The bodies on these Defenders are Aluminium panels and I am pleased to say it is in excellent order for its age. The combination of steel on the inside and aluminium on the outside causes oxidation spots and there a couple of light ones in a couple of places but nothing major at all. But for a 28 year old Landrover, it really is excellent and more importantly, straight and solid. The bulkhead is in superb shape and there are no obvious signs of any repairs etc. The footwells are also in good solid condition.

The Interior

The inside of the vehicle is clean, tidy and original. The 3 front seats are finished in original trim and they are in decent condition with just a couple of minor marks. The 4 rear fold down seats all operate as they ought to and again just have a couple of light marks from 28 years of use. The dashboards and door cards are original, complete and in decent condition. The carpets and roof lining is also nice and clean and its been well cared for by the previous owners down the years.

Mechanicals

The 2.5 litre 4 cylinder diesel engine is one of the best and most relaible engine Land rover ever built. They are made to last forever, are easy to maintain and never let you down. It has been well serviced and cared for and there are some receipts for work done so its ready to go for the next 100k miles. Look after these simple engines and they will give years of trouble free economical motoring. The Landrover has a 5 speed manual transmission. Both the gearbox and transfer box work excellent. There are no nasty noises rattles whatsoever. The gear selection is all nice and smooth both up and down the box. The Defender is permanent four wheel drive . The high/low gear and differential lock are present and work perfectly. There is a small gearknob near the main gear stick to select the low range gears.

The Chassis

The complete chassis is in perfect condition. It is hard and strong as to expect from this Defender. 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 SALLDVBC7AA251853

Going high-tech, the 4x4 way

Is 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-Land Rover builds millionth vehicle at Halewood

Fri, 29 Nov 2013

Jaguar-Land Rover is not what you'd call a volume automaker by any stretch of the imagination. But in the dozen years since it started manufacturing at its Halewood plant near Liverpool, England, the automaker has already built its millionth vehicle.
The landmark vehicle is a Range Rover Evoque, done up in white with red roof and mirrors, black wheels and a red and black interior. The crossover is set to be donated to Cancer Research UK, which will auction it off next year to help fund its projects in the north-west of the country.
Halewood started manufacturing the Jaguar X-Type in 2001, then went on to assemble the Land Rover LR2 / Freelander 2 before taking on production of the Evoque a year and a half ago. The facility reached the 300,000-unit milestone just last year as production moved to a 24-hour cycle for the first time in either marque's history.

Jaguar Land Rover offers (some) detail about new Ingenium engine

Thu, 10 Jul 2014

Jaguar Land Rover officially announced its Ingenium family of engines with the unveiling of the 2.0-liter version in the Jaguar XE concept at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, but it kept details very thin at the time. All we knew was that the new turbocharged mills could be configured to use gasoline or diesel, and be positioned longitudinally or transversely. Months later, JLR is finally letting some more info slip about its new baby, but there are still some big questions to be answered.
For the Ingenium project, Jaguar Land Rover gave its engineers a clean sheet of paper and told them not to worry about using any previous parts or machinery. In the end, the designers came up with a family of turbocharged, aluminum-block engines based around modular, 500cc cylinders to allow it to grow or shrink as the market demanded. The layout was also made adaptable enough to incorporate hybrid drivetrains, if needed. "Being configurable and flexible are the two key strands of Ingenium's DNA because we have future-proofed our new engines from the outset," said said Ron Lee, the company's director of Powertrain Engineering.
To maximize efficiency, Jaguar promises that all versions of the Ingenium engines come with computer-controlled, variable oil pumps and water pumps to use only as much energy as needed. They also get direct injection, roller bearings for the cams and stop/start. The diesel version alone has 17 percent less internal friction than the mill it replaces, the company claims. JLR is also promising class-leading figures for Ingenium's torque and horsepower too, but it's not giving away those specs just yet.
