2.5 Turbo Diesel 5 Speed 4x4

NOTE: EBAY DOES NOT VALIDATE THE UK VIN NUMBER. THIS VEHICAL IS A 1988 NOT A 1980 AS EBAY HAVE LISTED

Description- Recently restored Land Rover Defender 90 4 x 4 with only 67,264 original miles. The first date of registration is on August 1^st 1988 and came from a small town in South Wales called Pontypool just North East of Cardiff. The vehicle was only owned by 3 people in total since August 1st 1988 then was imported by myself this year for resale. The vehicle has a Full Clear title from the Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration. There is NO additional paper work required and was 100% legally imported in which complies with all DOT and EPA laws for its age. Due to the age of the vehicle it also is State inspection exempt and is eligible for State Historic Tags.

This 4x4 Defender is completely solid throughout with no rot anywhere, it’s 100% original and runs and drives like a dream. I also inspected the Door Shells, Door Bottoms, Bulkhead, Screen Corners, Chassis, Seals and anywhere else you can think of and found no issues. This defender is completely solid with no rot anywhere, 100% original, and runs and drives prefect. The truck recently had a professional paint job in the original color with silver trim so the paint looks great.

With a new high quality canvas and frame at the rear of the truck in which case is completely brand new it should last for many years to come. The canvas kit from X-More Trim cost more than $2200 and it one of the best you can buy. You can fully remove the canvas in summer and re attach in winter or on the day its takes about 5/10 minutes to do the same with the pickup cab it is also fully removable however requires more work.
The wheels are from a discovery with 30mm billet aluminum spacers to fit the newer style wheels this gives it a wider track and better handling. The tires are in good condition and included is a full working spare witch is bolted in the rear of the pick up cab with a spare wheel cover. The pick up bead and body is lined with Aluminum diamond plate.

The Land Rover Specialist did a full service and a MOT test which is a UK safety inspection that includes things like rot or rust, brake efficiency, brake line corrosion, engine CO2 and much more see attached mot copy. We also road tested this truck for 2 weeks in which case is driven daily before we advertised and in doing so have replaced the full exhaust system to ensure they are issue free.

Ferrari exec to lead Jaguar North America

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

Jaguar has announced that Jeff Curry will be serving as the brand's new North American vice president, effective August 13. The move is a coup for Jag, which lured Curry away from his previous posting as VP of marketing for Ferrari North America, and is further evidence of just how strong Jaguar's comeback has gotten.
Curry has spent over 20 years in the auto industry, and has worked with Audi, SiriusXM and Land Rover, where he made his start in the industry. His primary responsibilities with Jaguar will cover marketing communications, customer relationship management, and product planning.
Jaguar Land Rover's North American president, Andy Goss, heaped praise on the brand's newest addition saying, "Jeff brings with him extensive automotive and luxury marketing experience, critical expertise in leading-edge technologies and a personal passion for automobiles."

Is Jaguar's 3 Series-fighter the brand's last chance?

Wed, 16 Oct 2013

The upcoming line of compact 3 Series-fighters from Jaguar, often referred to as the Jaguar XS, could consist of a sedan, wagon and possibly a coupe and GT model (think BMW 5 Series GT). The car's all-aluminum architecture also will provide the basis for two new sports utility vehicles. Just how important is the much-touted "baby Jag" project to parent company Jaguar Land Rover? A JLR executive reportedly says the brand's survival is directly linked to the success of the XS, codenamed X760, Autocar reports.
The brand's survival is directly linked to the success of the XS.
"If the X760 fails, it will probably be the end for the [Jaguar] brand," the executive says. But Adrian Hallmark, Jaguar's global brand director, claims Jaguar will "build the most advanced, most efficient, most refined car in that [compact luxury sedan] segment. Not almost as good as, but better than the best in the world."

Jaguar Land Rover calls in handful of vehicles over suspension bolts

Thu, 24 Apr 2014

With most recalls seemingly affecting mass-market vehicles, it'd be all too easy to assume, consciously or otherwise, that higher-end automobiles never face such issues. But the main reason we don't see the NHTSA recalling more luxury automobiles isn't because of their quality, we'd postulate: it's because of their relative scarcity.
Take Jaguar Land Rover, recalls of whose vehicles we only seem to have cause to report about once a year. So if you're figuring they're about due, here you go. The Indian-owned British auto group has just announced two recalls, both regarding suspension components: one affecting Jaguars and another concerning - you guessed it - Land Rovers.
First up we have a recall for 2013 to 2014 model year Jaguar XJ, XF and XK models - a whopping 297 of them - which have been found to have problematic toe links. Separation of the toe link from the rear sub-frame could result in impaired stability and control over the vehicle's direction, so JLR is calling them in to replace the nuts and washers on the rear toe links.
