Our mission is to sell
beautiful mechanically sound and US legal vehicles, with 100% success! This is one of our latest
customer feedbacks: Hi guys... I wanted to write you a brief note to compliment you on
the quality of the LRD110 I purchased from you off EBay. I have
now used the truck for 6 months with trouble-free service. I have had
a few repairs done by two separate LRD specialists (one near each of my houses)
both of whom have heavily praised the truck's condition given its
age. I have purchased two vehicles off of EBay - and I'm sure you guys
know that it can be risky. Thanks for being so diligent in finding this
clean original specimen! The experience has been "just what I
wanted". Best regards, j.d. (To verify, check my Ebay
feedback of August 16th 2013) For more info about us and the

Introduction: The Alpina The Vehicle As you will see in the list
below, lots of work has been done and even more money has been spend to get
this Land Rover in a very good state and working order. It’s originally from Cambridge,
UK, where it has been used by a family as their holiday vehicle. It was dry stored
and therefore in a really good condition when we bought her as our new project.
First we started by stripping
her down to bare aluminium. Then it got professionally sprayed in Alpine White,
like the Defender NAS. When finished, all the parts where put back in place. As
we tried to keep it as original as possible, most parts are the original parts
but some of them where necessary to replace for new ones. When the body work
was finished, our Land Rover mechanic started working on her. Everything got thoroughly
checked, repaired or replaced to make sure the Alpina is completely ready for her
new life. Underneath you will find a short list/summary. LIST OF WORK DONE/ NEW
PARTS
The Engine The 2.5 liter 4 cylinder turbo diesel engine, is one of the best and most
reliable engines land rover ever build. They’re made to last forever, are easy
to maintain and never let you down. The turbo gives the extra torque you need.
A lot of work has been done to make it ready for the next 100k miles. So no
maintenance to be expected in the near future. Please promise us to service
Aplina on a regular basis, as she will last a lot longer on fresh oil and
regular TLC (tender, love and care). The Transmission She has a 5 speed manual transmission. Both gearbox and transfer box
work excellent. No weird noises, rattles or what so ever. Selecting gears goes
smooth as it should. The Defender is permanently in 4 wheel drive. High/low
gear and differential lock are present and work perfectly. The gear knob is
below and next to the gearbox stick. The Body The aluminum body and paintwork are in a very good condition. The recent paintjob makes the vehicle look like new. Of course you can see here and there that it isn’t new, some scratches and age marks. Also on some spots the combination of steel on the inside and thin aluminum on the outside causes some small marks. But for a 26 year old vehicle, it is really beautiful! The bulkhead and foot wells are clean and rust free. The doors are totally straight and have rust free bottoms, which is pretty unique. The windows work as they should, the same goes for all the locks. Please take care of the door hinges, they tend to rust if not regularly looked after. The Defender has a tow bar with electrics. Also an air intake snorkel is
mounted if you need to go through deep water. 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. Worth mentioning is that the steering guard bar has a small dent, which hasn't effect on the function. The chassis number or VIN is clearly visible. The VIN
is: SALLDHMB7EA329668
The Interior The inside of the vehicle is clean, tidy and original. The 5 seats and 2
benches are a in very good and original condition. The radio is old and is
ready to be thrown out of the window. It’s your decision to plug in a new radio
to your needs. The whole infrastructure is there. The tires The Defender has got 4 good all terrain tires and a brand new spare. It’s
to be advised that if you are going to use the truck only on normal roads, to
put normal road tires on it. If going to be used primarily on dirt roads or off
road, put off-roaders under it. Service It has just got a full service. All the oils and lubricants in the axles,
gearbox, transfer box and so one have been replaced. The Defender’s power
steering system is in excellent condition. Customs, title and delivery The vehicle passed all DOT and
DMV test/inspections and is 100% USA legal. Furthermore, in contrast to a lot
of Defenders for sale on ebay, this Defender is
already in the USA, Maryland, and has cleared customs, meets all EPA & DOT regulations and is ready to be titled. All necessary
paperwork will be included. Where needed, we can assist with the titling as we
have got the experience. If
preferred, for transportation you can make use of our reliable trucker. Send an
email for quotes. Deposit, Payment, Title To secure your Land Rover, we require a deposit
of $1000,- within 24 hours after the end of auction. The remaining amount by
bank transfer on the day of transportation. For more info please send an email. After the full amount has been transferred, all
necessary paperwork will be send by Express DHL delivery. For more pictures please click on Alpina |

Queen Elizabeth II was a longtime automotive enthusiast
Sun, Sep 11 2022Since driver's licenses, license plates, and passports were issued in her own name, Queen Elizabeth II didn't need them to drive and travel. She started combining the two just before she turned 19, joining the Auxiliary Territorial Service (ATS) transport division in 1945 for vehicle mechanic training. She wanted to help the British effort during World War II and would drive an ambulance — one that, theoretically, she could also fix if it broke down. The war ended before she graduated as an Honorary Junior Commander, the other ATS members dubbing her Princess Auto Mechanic. We donÂ’t know if she got under the hoods of the many official state vehicles and the far more numerous unofficial fleet in the royal garages, but she was still driving herself around England as late as this year. Here is a tiny selection of royal conveyances used during her 70-year reign. Gold State Coach (1762) True, she never drove this one, but a tour of every royal garage should start with the coach. King George III commissioned Samuel Butler to build it in 1760. Butler spent two years on the gilded carriage 24 feet long and more than 12 feet high. The quarters are suspended from the frame by leather straps, so occupants get tossed about even during a slow stroll, which is as fast as the eight Windsor Gray horses can pull it. It wasnÂ’t until the 1900s that King George VI rubberized the wooden wheels. Word is the queen didnÂ’t like it.  1953 Land Rover Series 1 Land Rover gave Queen ElizabethÂ’s father, King George VI, the 100th example of the 80 Series off the line in 1948. She picked up the Landie habit for herself five years later, when a 1953 Series 1 with a custom 86-inch wheelbase was part of the fleet used for her six-month tour of the Commonwealth in 1953 and 1954. That Land Rover became Ceremonial Vehicle State IV. The models above were built in Australia in 1958 as near copies of the Commonwealth tour vehicle, when Australia decided it wanted six identical versions for royal service. ItÂ’s thought the royal family went through around 30 Land Rover Series cars and Defenders since then, and many of the most common photos of her have her posing in or near one, especially the 2002 Defender built just for her. The royal family isnÂ’t finished with them, either: A current Defender 110 served as a luggage hauler for family members headed to Balmoral Castle during the queenÂ’s final days.
Jaguar Land Rover invests $1.5B to build factory in Slovakia
Fri, Dec 11 2015Jaguar Land Rover will invest 1 billion pounds ($1.5 billion at current rates) to build a new factory in Nitra, Slovakia. Construction will commence in 2016, and the site will have an initial capacity of 150,000 vehicles a year when the first of them roll out in late 2018. JLR expects to employ 2,800 people there. JLR won't yet say what vehicle it will build in Slovakia, other than it will be an all-new aluminum model. The 2018 timing for the plant's start of production seems to coincide with the launch of the radically different next-gen Land Rover Defender, though. Earlier reports suggested that JLR also considered locations in North America, particularly Georgia, and Europe for the new factory. However, the company signaled the Slovakia choice earlier this year when it signed a letter of intent with the government there in August. The automaker then did a final feasibility study before committing to the site. The new factory continues JLR's recent manufacturing expansion. The company opened an engine plant in the UK last year and a factory in China. There will also be one soon in Brazil, and it will reportedly bid to buy the Silverstone Circuit as a new headquarters. JAGUAR LAND ROVER CONFIRMS NEW FACTORY IN SLOVAKIA • New world-class premium manufacturing facility confirmed in Nitra • The next stage of the Company's plans for sustainable global growth • Today's announcement also supports long-term investment in the UK Bratislava, Slovakia – Jaguar Land Rover has confirmed that it will be the first British carmaker to open a manufacturing facility in Slovakia. The announcement follows an agreement between the company and the Government of the Slovak Republic to build a new plant in the city of Nitra, western Slovakia. The new world-class GBP1 billion premium manufacturing facility will eventually employ around 2,800 people. Today's announcement follows Jaguar Land Rover's recent confirmation to double its investment in its engine plant in the UK to almost GBP1 billion – the largest injection into a new British manufacturing plant in decades creating several hundred new jobs. Dr Ralf Speth, Chief Executive Officer, Jaguar Land Rover commented, "Jaguar Land Rover is delighted today to welcome Slovakia into our family. The new factory will complement our existing facilities in the UK, China, India and Brazil and marks the next step in the company's strategy to become a truly global business.
Jaguar and Land Rover to consolidate dealerships
Thu, 29 Nov 2012Jaguar and Land Rover are set to merge their sales facilities, according to Inside Line. Jaguar Land Rover North America President Andy Gross says 45 percent of Jaguar owners also have an SUV in their stable, so it makes sense to give customers as much exposure to the cat's high-riding cousins and possible. The number of overall outlets will remain the same, and the brands will reportedly remain separate on the showroom floor, however.
So far, just one dealer has made the move to combine under the roof of one 68,000 square-foot facility in Paramus, New Jersey (above), though a further 20 are ready to make the shift and become Jaguar Land Rover outlets. Gross believes the shift is necessary so that his company's dealer network will accurately reflect the company's products. We'll see how cozy the brands are when Jaguar starts rolling out its own SUVs in a few years.
