I am the original, and only owner of this 1994 Defender 90.

I purchased it in Minneapolis,( August 1994) where I had a home, and immediately drove it to my home in Naples, Florida, where it has been garaged for its existence. Other than the trip from Minneapolis (1900 miles on the interstate), and a couple of trips to Key West (440 miles round trip), the car has been under cover, and out of the sun for 99.9% of the time, while in my procession.

It has 15561 miles on the odometer as of 5/30/14…. I still drive it to the coffee shop on occasion

These are soft miles because the truck has never been off the road, but merely used, to drive around town, and to haul nursery plants, or stuff from the Home Depot. Perhaps best described as a novelty vehicle for me.

In preparation for sale, I gave thought to replacing the original floor mats, and cargo liner, however found that only the liner, was still available, through Land Rover…….So, I purchased it, and it arrived about a week ago….It is included, and displayed in one of the photos

I have the window sticker, bill of sale, and the original full canvas top, and two windows…plus service records….In addition, I have the original radio,(included) which still works, however was replaced by a newer one, that was better for receiving sirius radio (see bracket in photo)….I have the document with the code, to activate, if you choose to reinstall the original radio.

The spare tire has never been off the rear door mount, and you can still see the tire mould excesses on the tread.

Perhaps the craziest acccessory, is a tonneau cover (see photo). It was on the truck when I purchased it, and immediately put in my garage…i forgot I had it, however it looks brand new……..It has three pockets…Two over the seat tops, and one over the spare tire. All the snaps are on the vehicle….Can't imagine using it, however for the purists, it is included.

In reviewing the window sticker , the base price was $27,900 plus $900.00 for the Five-Spoke Aluminum Alloy Wheels….+ $95.00 for Inland transportation…Total $29,395….Port of entry Oxnard, California

I also have the marketing brochure…Highlights?……182 H.P.3.9 Litre Aluminum V-8……..BF Goodrich Radial Mud Terrain T/A Tires…7"x16" Wheels…..Estimated Curb weight 3560 Lbs….and a 15.6 gallon gas tank

Why am I selling it?….Well at 71, I am starting to tidy up the assets in my estate, and the last thing I want to do is turn it over to some bone headed heir, who would either abuse it, or not recognize it's value.

I have been watching the auctions of Defenders for the past two months on E-Bay

Needless to say I want to play a role in it's placement, and yes, I do watch "Chasing Classic Cars"

Oh….I will of course work with you on shipment (your responsibility)…However will be available to shepard the truck onto the transport company of your choice. My neighbors, ship exotic cars up north all the time for their summer use…. An enclosed transport would be the advised approach

I can be reached, via voice, or text, on my cell phone 239 272 7035.

My name is Ed

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.

Top 11 Lego Technic cars to buy on Amazon in 2024

Mon, Jan 22 2024

Autoblog may receive a share from purchases made via links on this page. Pricing and availability are subject to change. I recently got a birthday wish list from my 11-year-old nephew, and I couldn't help but smile when I saw “Lego Technic CarsÂ” at the top. Lego isnÂ’t a phase, itÂ’s a lifestyle. Once a Lego fan, always a Lego fan. In fact, IÂ’d be willing to bet that many of you reading this right now have some kind of Lego vehicle in a box somewhere, or better yet, on display in your home. While theyÂ’re not necessarily cheap, getting into building Lego Technic vehicles doesnÂ’t have to bankrupt you, either, unless you go for the $400 Lamborghini right off the bat. Here are 11 of our favorite Lego Technic vehicles on Amazon, right now, ranging from an affordable $35 all the way up to $450. LEGO Technic Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Ages 9+ (544 Pieces) - $39.99 (20% off) One of my first and favorite model cars growing up was a first-gen Ford Mustang GT350, so this GT500 for under $40 is right up my alley. At 544 pieces and made for ages 9 and up, the GT500 is a considerable step up from Grave Digger but a great starter to a Technic collection nonetheless. It isnÂ’t the most accurate-looking vehicle in this list, but the AR app and the fact that it can drive make it a worthwhile purchase. $39.99 at Amazon LEGO Technic Formula E Porsche 99X Electric Ages 9+ (422 Pieces) - $49.99 Not a Ford fan? Not a problem. This Formula E Porsche 99X is the same price and better looking than the GT500. Even though there are 122 fewer pieces in this Porsche set, it has a level of detail seen in much more expensive Technic sets including numerous decals and a pull back motor.Â $49.99 at Amazon LEGO Technic Jeep Wrangler Ages 9+ (665 Pieces) - $54.99 This is the set I ended up going with for my nephew, not because I think it is the coolest, but because for the price, I think you get the most bang for your buck. 665 pieces is over 50% more than the comparatively priced Porsche 99X and it also scratches the nostalgia itch for me: The first-ever model vehicle I built was a yellow Jeep Wrangler Sahara. This Wrangler Rubicon has definitely had some aftermarket mods like the front winch, which makes it one of the coolest Technic sets under $60.Â $54.99 at Amazon LEGO Technic Monster Jam Grave Digger Ages 7+ (212 Pieces) - $34.16 If ever there was a gateway Lego Technic, this Grave Digger is it.

Jaguar-Land Rover will use recycled waste to make parts for future models

Thu, Oct 1 2020

Jaguar-Land Rover's future models will be partially made of junk. The company announced it's working on integrating a recycled material named Econyl into its manufacturing process in the coming years. Created in 2011 by Italy-based Aquafil, Econyl is a fiber made with a blend of recycled industrial plastics, fabric offcuts sourced from clothing manufacturers, and discarded fishing nets aimlessly floating around the ocean. It's more eco-friendly to produce than oil-based fibers, according to Jaguar, and it helps clean up the planet. Jaguar and Land Rover will use Econyl to make floor mats in the not-too-distant future. Neither company listed the models they'll put the material in, but it's reasonable to assume recycled floor mats will be available in the next-generation XJ, which will be electric, and the next-generation Range Rover. Both will be released in 2021. Eco-friendly materials are slowly but surely spreading across the luxury car segment. Jaguar already offers the I-Pace with a Kvadrat upholstery that combines regular wool and up to 53 recycled plastic bottles per car. Audi's fourth-generation A3 is optionally available with an upholstery made largely using recycled plastic bottles, and Volvo estimates at least 25% of the plastics in its cars will be recycled starting in 2025. Environmentalist organizations are putting an increasing amount of pressure on carmakers to deliver so-called vegan interiors. A group called EarthSight recently accused several companies (including Jaguar-Land Rover and BMW) of using leather from cattle raised on illegally logged lands in Paraguay. Representatives for the British company stressed they found no evidence to verify EarthSight's claims. Related Video:
