1988 Land Rover 110 300tdi LHD SW
This is a great opportunity to get an entry level 110 Diesel. You don't want to miss this chance to get a LHD 110 that is already stateside and legal. These trucks get harder and harder to bring in each year. This wonderful example will be a great starting point to build your perfect camping/adventuremobile...or you can drive it as is reliably as a DD. Everyone has their own ideas of what they need in a rig and that's why we are leaving this one up to you to personalize and build as you see fit. 
100% legally imported and titled. Florida Title in hand. Truck gets a lot of attention and people love these things. Has full length roof rack and rear access ladder. Both have been texture painted black since the photos were taken. 

This 110 was purchased from Southern Spain in Gibraltar and then riven back up to England for shipment. As such, it is in good shape for its age and was spared from the rust of damp England. We just installed 5 brand new 235/85 Kenda MT tires that look and ride excellent. The truck runs very well and fires up right away. The 300tdi and auto came out of a low mileage discovery and were installed prior to our purchase. The engine is cleanly converted and is overall a nice install. No smoke while running or under heavy pedal. Small puff at start up but otherwise great none. The exhaust has a few leaks but it does not effect drive at all. There is only 187,000km or approximately 116,000 miles on the truck. For a 25yr old vehicle it is good shape. Frame is rot free and not covered in rust. Slight rust areas at the door bottoms, very some small rust at the upper bulkhead(easy fix if you need to) and a few small spots on the footwell. All of these are the common areas of concern with old Series adn 90/110's. Due to aodd design the water tends to pool on these surfaces and cause corrosion. However, this particular truck has a very minimal amount of oxidation.  Bulkhead is otherwise solid. Structurally solid top to bottom. The paint is a bit aged in spots and it has some dents, but this is to be expected. Honestly paint and flawless exteriors are not what it's about with overlanding. As is it can be driven economically and made into the perfect adventure-mobile. Since we picked this truck up at the port in GA we have put 500km on it and it hasn't missed a beat. Recently took it to New Smyrna Beach and averaged 28mpg. It preformed wonderfully and got a lot of attention from the beach goers. For a 25yr old shed on wheels the 110 rode very smoothly and was quite comfortable cruising along at 60mph down the back roads of Central Florida. Suspension is firm as you would expect from the OME kit, but not overly so. 

This vehicle is 25yrs old and as such has the normal expected wear for it's age. Do not come expecting a showroom 110. If that is what you are looking for you are going to pay 30k+ and even then it will probably be RHD. That being said, it is a great truck that is the perfect starting point for your own adventure lifestyle. We aren't selling you just a truck....these things are a lifestyle. Go explore and travel well. Text for details and additional pics....it is easier for me to get back to you quickly via email/text. Calls are welcomed, however be sure and leave a message so I can remember to call you back if I don't answer. Blue roof awning is not included in sale. 


Key Points:

*Imported legally and has passed all customs and DMV inspections. Titled, insured and driven daily currently so mileage can change.

*4WD works perfectly and engages smoothly including diflock

*No A/C (as some of you have asked). The 300TDI engine has a mounting location for AC to be installed if you feel the need. Honestly if you want a nice air conditioned vehicle I suggest you look towards the RRC or D1

*Transmission shifts smoothly

*Brakes are working fine

*Excellent Fuel economy

*Brand New 235/85 Kenda MT tires and fullsize spare

*Old Man Emu 755 Heavy Duty Springs

*Paint is old, but really makes the truck look tough

*No overheating or other problems associated with the engine

*Not equipped with power steering

*Has CD player but lacks speakers

Jaguar Land Rover exploring 3D HUD and infotainment projections

Wed, Aug 21 2019

With its most recent technology research, Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) is exploring the use of 3D projections for a world before and/or after autonomous vehicles come to fruition. In collaboration with the United Kingdom's University of Cambridge, JLR has developed concepts for a 3D head-up display that shows information on the road ahead and a system that projects personalized 3D infotainment for vehicle passengers.  As of right now, hundreds of production vehicles are equipped with two-dimensional head-up displays, some color, others black and white. Using various techniques and different technologies, manufacturers display information in a flat image in front of a driver. Some might find it distracting or unhelpful to have this in the driver's line of sight, and JLR might have found a solution. Rather than wedge the information in between the person and the view ahead, a 3D system that uses augmented reality could display the info onto the road in front of the driver. JLR thinks the system could project navigation directions, safety alerts such as lane departure, hazard detection or other bits typically found in a car's infotainment or instrument cluster. Some might find this to be even more distracting that 2D head-up displays, but to each his or her own. While the 3D head-up display is something that could be used right now, if it were released and passed legal, part two of JLR's 3D technology research is imagined for a life where truly autonomous vehicles are skating across the country. Using head- and eye-tracking technology, the system could lock into the position of numerous people in a vehicle and give each of them a personalized 3D projection "screen." This could be used to track a trip, look up points of interest, or even watch movies. JLR points out this could be used during ride-sharing without bothering others in the vehicle. The work with the Center for Advanced Photonics and Electronics at Cambridge is still in development for now, but it's only a matter of time before 3D tech makes it into cars in some degree.
