1986 LANDROVER 90 3.5 V8 IN BLACK WITH OFF ROAD EXTRAS

Ebay does not recognise the UK vin which is - SALLDHAV7FA365345

This Landrover unlike many others for sale is already in the USA and comes with a SC title so no worry about getting EPA and DOT approval along with getting a title as all this has been done. I am located in Bluffton, SC, 29910.

$500 deposit required within 24 hours of auction end and full payment within 5 days. Payment can be by cash etc if collecting in person or by wire transfer if having it couriered.


The Landrover itself is a right hand driver Landrover 90 that was built new in 1986. It has been recently imported from the UK where the previous owner has used it somewhat as an off-road toy as you can see by the added off road extras it has fitted. It has the original 3.5 litre v8 gasoline engine and 5 speed manual transmission. The extras that have been fitted include an off road set of wheels with off road tyres, heavy duty tree sliders, heavy duty tow on the front and rear, winch bumper and winch (not wired in) and also an integral roll cage. This Landover has obviously been used for off roading and has a few dings around the body but mainly to the roof. It looks worse than it is as a new roof could be fitted if wanted as all panels are removable on these.

The main thing with this 90 is the fact that the frame is in superb condition. It has had the rear cross member changed at some point so that expensive job has been taken care of. The outriggers are in excellent shape as is all of the chassis and no work is needed to be done to it. The bulkhead is in great shape and is again nice and solid. The floor pans have been replaced and are in good shape. The door frames are also in very good condition for one of these. I have taken many images of the chassis below so please take a look for yourselves.

The interior is in good shape. The front seats are in a beige cloth material and are in remarkable condition for the age of the vehicle. There is no wear and no stains to them at all and they are very good indeed. To the rear of the 90 is the installed roll frame. In here there is also an off-road spare and also a genuine Landrover high lift jack. You will notice that there are 2 storage boxes in the rear. These are full of brand new spare parts etc for the Landy. There are new coils, new ht leads, new fan belts, alternator belts, spark plugs, filters etc etc and I'm sure this will be handy when spares are needed.

The Landy cranks up well. The fuel pump has just been renewed as the old one was a little bit lazy. The motor sounds good with no nasty noises etc and runs nicely. The exhaust has been upgraded to a twin exit which sounds a bit louder than normal but I see that as a positive especially with the V8 motor. The transmission is a 5 speed manual LT77 box which has the top left reverse. All gears shift well with no issues. The clutch is also good and the brakes, steering, suspension etc are all good.

In conclusion this is a very solid Landrover 90 with a superb, strong chassis. It has some great off road extras fitted and will be a great piece of kit for someone regardless of the various dings and marks and most importantly it has a SC title so its good to go :-))

Happy bidding

European automakers gear up for Brazilian production

Mon, 07 Oct 2013

Brazil 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.

Jaguar Land Rover and Chery investing in Chinese plant

Sat, 24 Nov 2012

While 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 to offer high-performance SVR models like Land Rover?

Tue, 01 Jul 2014

At the Goodwood Festival of Speed this past weekend, Land Rover previewed its upcoming performance version of the Range Rover Sport. Only instead of wearing the R-S badge that adorns the most hardcore of Jaguar models, the performance SUV from JLR's Special Operations unit introduced the letters SVR. And now, it seems that badge is here to stay.
Following the Range Rover Sport SVR, a new report from Motor Authority now says that Jaguar Land Rover will use those letters to distinguish the top-of-the-line performance models from both marques moving forward. As such, we might expect SVR models of the upcoming Jaguar XE compact sedan and Land Rover Discovery Sport, as well as potential new performance models based on the new F-Type and next-generation XF.
If accurate, the move would seem to separate Jaguar in particular from the R-S badge that has adorned performance models like the XFR-S and XKR-S. Both Audi and Porsche use the letters RS to distinguish its most hardcore models as well (e.g. Audi RS7 Sportback and Porsche 911 GT3 RS). Whether the similarity was a factor in shifting to the SVR moniker, we don't know, but either way, we welcome the arrival of a new generation of Jaguar and Land Rover performance models - especially if they pack the 575-horsepower version of the company's ubiquitous 5.0-liter supercharged V8. Not incidentally, that delicious powerplant gained a couple of new engine bays to call home at Goodwood as well - it's not just found in the forthcoming Range Rover Sport SVR, it's found a home in the F-Type Project 7, too.
