Defender to make it my project for the US market, it was already in a very good
shape. The previous owner took real good care of her, which was clearly visible
and that’s what convinced me to buy her. The paintwork was in good order, the interior
was beautiful, the engine and gearbox running nicely. Lots of receipts came
with her so I knew he wasn’t hesitating to invest in her. I decided to rebuild
the engine even though it was running excellent. I did it lots of times and it
is way cheaper for me to do it and letting it be done in the US. So I can
guarantee that this engine will run for miles and miles. I put a roof rack on her,
cleaned and wax oiled the chassis and did lots of other things listed below to give
the future buyer a good start on his Land Rover Experience:
The Engine The 3.5 V8
engine is a very reliable and easy to maintain engine. It was developed many years
back so when installed in the Defender is was fully developed and popular
engine. It isn’t the most powerful power source in the world, but it pulls good
and takes you everywhere. We carried out a complete engine overhaul. All gaskets
new, lubricants fresh, timing belt new, full length new exhaust and so on. 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. It was been repainted five
years ago. Of course you can see here and there that it isn’t new, some
scratches and age 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 windscreen has
some wiper scratches on the passenger side. Note that this is a classic vehicle
so there are marks of age, not many though! The Defender has
a tow bar with electrics. Also an air intake snorkel is mounted if you need to
go through deep water. The heavy duty roof rack makes it look complete. 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. The chassis number or VIN is clearly visible
and authentic. The VIN is: SALLDHMV7EA331748
The Interior The inside of
the vehicle is clean, tidy and as good as new. The 9 seats are finished in black
half leather. There is a multimedia device installed with LCD screen which pops
out when switched on. 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,
EPA 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 We require a deposit of $500, - within 24 hours after the end of auction.

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)
Land Rover Defender 110s, especially classic years
like 1987, are rare finds. To find one so well prepared and to work with
a guy like Daniel van Oort who helped every step of the way and went way beyond
our expectations even past delivery is AMAZING. I had such a great
experience with Daniel. He kept me always informed of the process as our
beautiful “Ms Red” made it through customs in Baltimore. He coordinated
everything perfectly. As with all classic vehicles > 25 years old,
there can always be subtle issues at first. There were a few, like a
small dent in the bumper which occurred somewhere in shipping to the US.
Daniel wasted no time negotiating these minor problems. He just
dropped a new bumper in the post at his cost and several other spare parts or
small items after that. Daniel knew I was a new LR owner and had much to
learn. He never hesitated to send me advice and support. He
quickly returned every email, was available from 1/2 way around the world when
I was going through the tag & title process in Texas to make sure I had all
the documentation.
I would completely recommend Daniel and his
organization for future purchases and, in fact, I have been circulating his
name among Land Rover clubs and social media that I participate in. He’s
a top notch seller and there’s nothing I would change about our experience.
My family and I have already created lots of great memories in our Land
Rover Defender 110 and the candy-apple red color is a head turner!! We
always get lots of compliments from other Land Rover classic owners who really
know their stuff. They are also impressed with my experiences, the value
and services I received from Daniel.
Thanks Daniel. Many more memories to come and my
wife now wants a Land Rover Defender of her own….so will be in touch soon.

Genesis cars win accolades, offer value — so why are sales so bad?
Tue, Jul 31 2018My high-school buddy Brent Cormier was so smitten with the Genesis G80 when he saw it at an event I hosted at SXSW in 2016 he bought a used 2013 Hyundai Genesis a short time later and fell in love with the car. "It surpasses my every expectation," said Cormier, a self-described "renaissance man" who owns and runs a real estate agency with his wife Laura, is a food service executive chef and part owner of Austin-based Thin the Herd Guitars. "I was locked into Mercedes and Audi for 10 years," he added. "And felt trapped in an endless pit of maintenance costs." After owning the Genesis over the past two years — including using it as an Uber and Lyft driver to earn extra cash — Cormier learned what some frugal luxury sedan buyers and a handful of car reviewers have discovered: Genesis offers great bang for the buck compared to other premium brands and can compete with the best in terms of performance, features and comfort. Hyundai's luxury brand also earned a prominent third-party endorsement last week when for the first time Genesis topped J.D. Power's 2018 APEAL study, surpassing German luxury-performance icon Porsche. The APEAL study (which stands for Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout) "measures owners' emotional attachment and level of excitement across 77 attributes," ranging from performance to comfort, and asks nearly 68,000 owners of new 2018 models to score vehicles on a 1,000-point scale. In its second year ranked as a stand-alone brand, Genesis earned an APEAL score that bumped it up 15 points to 884 and helped push it past Porsche — and past BMW, Lincoln, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Volvo, Cadillac, Land Rover and Lexus, in order of ranking. Last month, Genesis also topped J.D. Power's Initial Quality Survey (IQS) for the first time this year. And both its models were awarded Top Safety Pick Plus ratings by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, among 11 Plus ratings in all for Korean vehicles. Despite high J.D. Power rankings and great reviews, Genesis U.S. sales were off 50 percent for the first six months of 2018 compared to 2017, and in June Genesis sold only 796 vehicles — the first time U.S. numbers dropped below 1,000 in a month. Part of Genesis's APEAL and IQS success can be attributed to its small product lineup: just two models, the G80 and G90 sedans, with a third, the 2019 G70, launching later this year. And while those numbers may help in J.D.
Jaguar Land Rover Special Vehicle Operations could build standalone models
Sun, Mar 8 2015Jaguar Land Rover may be set to turn its Special Vehicle Operations division into something much bigger than a mere in-house tuner. Bloomberg spoke to the head of JLR's high-performance, customization outfit, John Edwards, who hinted that his team may move beyond simply modifying F-Types, Range Rovers and the like. "We're certainly looking at that, and we've got the capability to do that," Edwards told AN. "Is there an opportunity for us to do a completely standalone car? Maybe." Such a move into full-scale, standalone models would be a big step, particularly for a division that's still kind of in its infancy. Bloomberg references the success of Mercedes-AMG, but the German division has had the benefit of decades of growth. AMG spent years and years building high-performance versions of all manner of mainstream Mercedes vehicles, before moving onto cars like the SLS AMG and AMG GT, which have no mainstream analog. In other words, AMG had a long time to develop a reputation building high-performance vehicles that people know and recognize before it moved into building vehicles of its own. We aren't entirely convinced that SpecOps wouldn't benefit from taking a similar approach, delivering additional SVR vehicles, like the rumored XE SVR, before striking out on its own. We'd like to know what you think, though. Is it already time for Special Vehicle Operations to build standalone models, or should it learn to walk before it runs by modifying more of Jaguar Land Rover's existing product. Have your say in Comments. Related Video:
The UK votes for Brexit and it will impact automakers
Fri, Jun 24 2016It's the first morning after the United Kingdom voted for what's become known as Brexit – that is, to leave the European Union and its tariff-free internal market. Now begins a two-year process in which the UK will have to negotiate with the rest of the EU trading bloc, which is its largest export market, about many things. One of them may be tariffs, and that could severely impact any automaker that builds cars in the UK. This doesn't just mean companies that you think of as British, like Mini and Jaguar. Both of those automakers are owned by foreign companies, incidentally. Mini and Rolls-Royce are owned by BMW, Jaguar and Land Rover by Tata Motors of India, and Bentley by the VW Group. Many other automakers produce cars in the UK for sale within that country and also export to the EU. Tariffs could damage the profits of each of these companies, and perhaps cause them to shift manufacturing out of the UK, significantly damaging the country's resurgent manufacturing industry. Autonews Europe dug up some interesting numbers on that last point. Nissan, the country's second-largest auto producer, builds 475k or so cars in the UK but the vast majority are sent abroad. Toyota built 190k cars last year in Britain, of which 75 percent went to the EU and just 10 percent were sold in the country. Investors are skittish at the news. The value of the pound sterling has plummeted by 8 percent as of this writing, at one point yesterday reaching levels not seen since 1985. Shares at Tata Motors, which counts Jaguar and Land Rover as bright jewels in its portfolio, were off by nearly 12 percent according to Autonews Europe. So what happens next? No one's terribly sure, although the feeling seems to be that the jilted EU will impost tariffs of up to 10 percent on UK exports. It's likely that the UK will reciprocate, and thus it'll be more expensive to buy a European-made car in the UK. Both situations will likely negatively affect the country, as both production of new cars and sales to UK consumers will both fall. Evercore Automotive Research figures the combined damage will be roughly $9b in lost profits to automakers, and an as-of-yet unquantified impact on auto production jobs. Perhaps the EU's leaders in Brussels will be in a better mood in two years, and the process won't devolve into a trade war. In the immediate wake of the Brexit vote, though, the mood is grim, the EU leadership is angry, and investors are spooked.
