Defender 110 High Capacity Soft Top - Tomb Raider on 2040-cars

If you want the valet to park your car up front, this is it. 

I now have 4 Land Rovers and I must let one go.  I've had the pleasure of owning this Defender for 2 years and drive it back and forth to the office with the top down.  It is a solid running vehicle.  

This is a 110 High Capacity with a soft top.  The top is an Exmoor brand.  Seats are Exmoor.  The bed, interior, sand tracks, roll cage, and grill guard have all been sprayed with bed liner.  Engine is a 200 TDI with a Twisted Brand oversized intercooler to boost performance.  Interior dash had a MUD brand console with two rows of accessory switches.  Start with push button on dash to make it really cool.  There is a battery kill switch under the passenger seat.  Obviously, this is a right hand drive, making it that much cooler.  But, as Defender enthusiast know, it can be switched to Left hand, if that is your thing.  LED lights are on the roll cage and grill guard.  Tires are ready for off road.

I'm told this vehicle was built to promote the movie "Lara Croft Tomb Raider."  If you look at the vehicle used in that movie, you will see that this is a blacked out replica.  I have friends that use this vehicle is Halloween and put on the Lara Croft outfits.  I wish I had permission to post those photos!

This vehicle has been serviced by a local Land Rover mechanic and he can inspect for you.  Also, when I drive this to the Land Rover dealer, the mechanics all come out to look.

Good luck bidding.  I hate to let it go, but have to limit myself to just 3 vehicles.

Like all Defenders, ebay doesn't recognize the VIN, so this I had to input this as a 1980.

Jaguar appoints Joe Eberhardt as North American President

Thu, 19 Dec 2013

Jaguar Land Rover North America has appointed a new president, Joachim Eberhardt. The German exec, 50, had previously done stints at Chrysler Group, DaimlerChrysler UK, Mercedes-Benz USA and Daimler-Benz.
Eberhardt joins JLR NA in a good, but challenging time for the company. It's fresh off the launch of the Range Rover Sport and Jaguar F-Type, which have been subject to rave reviews, and its overall sales are up 21 percent over 2012. Still, as Automotive News points out, the two manufacturers face a fight to become the equal of A-list competitors like BMW and Mercedes in the eyes of consumers.
"Joe brings a proven industry track record and valuable global leadership experience in luxury sales, service and marketing. We look forward to Joe leading our North American team in working with our retail networks to further grow the business and better serve our customers," JLR's group sales operations director, Andy Goss, said.

Ford's J Mays feels vindicated by Fusion reception

Tue, 25 Sep 2012

It's hard to think back now, but the same man overseeing the design of the 2013 Ford Fusion also presided over a rather lackluster period in Ford design, highlighted by vehicles like the Five Hundred and Freestyle. With the redesigned Fusion receiving high praise, J Mays tells Automotive News that he feels vindicated from criticisms suggesting he's not a daring enough designer.
When Mays took over as lead of design in 1997, he admits to having quite an ego ("My head would barely fit through the door some days. I've long since gotten over myself") and the workload to match. With the Blue Oval's portfolio full of premium brands like Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo at that point, along with the bread-and-butter Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models, Mays certainly had quite the challenge.
It was in the mid-2000s that Mays took over just the premium brands, and took on the new title of Chief Creative Officer. At the time, Mays endured some criticism for looking backwards to retro styling, rather than setting a new standard for American car design - criticism that Mays says he is free from with the all-new Fusion.

Jaguar and Land Rover to consolidate dealerships

Thu, 29 Nov 2012

Jaguar 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.
