Defender 110 Tithonus X-military Heavy Duty on 2040-cars
Virginia Beach, Virginia, United States
This vehicle is in excellent original military condition, and served with the British Army. VIN: SALLDHAC7BA290012 IT IS AN IDEAL HEAVY DUTY UTILITY VEHICLE. It can be configured for the Beach, taking a cooler and surf boards or for Hunting - it has the original rifle racks fitted between the front seats. A full
hard top comes with the vehicle, with a full size rear door, and internal roll
cage. The hard top can be taken off and all the doors can be reduced to half
doors. The vehicle also comes with the original military updated trim on the
interior. Conversion to LHD is also possible here in the USA. This British Army Land Rover Defender 110 (1987) was fully
refurbished under the ‘Tithonus’ project. Each Tithonus Land Rover was individually selected and fully
refurbished by the MoD in 2007-2008 as part of the British Army LEP (life
extension program). The project was to
extend the overall service life of the Land-Rovers by 10 years or more. A fully integrated Wolf Roll Cage including front external
and rear internal hoop system provides protection. Front and rear disc
brakes were fitted, with the wheels replaced with heavy duty 16 inch Wolf
rims carrying 7.50R16 Michelin XZL tyres. Updated Exmoor ‘Outlast’ fabric front
seats with headrest and rear side facing folding seats with lap belts provide
seating for six. Front and rear, rubber sound proofing matting was also added. The vehicle is in Virginia Beach with full clear
Virginia title and all customs paperwork appropriately stamped during it's
import process. The Defender has a VA state inspection, is exempt EPA emissions
testing, and as it is older than 25 years old, exempt from DOT regulations as
an antique.
The truck is totally stock military spec and drives
very well. All seals and the drive train have been inspected, and timing belt

Jaguar to offer high-performance SVR models like Land Rover?
Tue, 01 Jul 2014At the Goodwood Festival of Speed this past weekend, Land Rover previewed its upcoming performance version of the Range Rover Sport. Only instead of wearing the R-S badge that adorns the most hardcore of Jaguar models, the performance SUV from JLR's Special Operations unit introduced the letters SVR. And now, it seems that badge is here to stay.
Following the Range Rover Sport SVR, a new report from Motor Authority now says that Jaguar Land Rover will use those letters to distinguish the top-of-the-line performance models from both marques moving forward. As such, we might expect SVR models of the upcoming Jaguar XE compact sedan and Land Rover Discovery Sport, as well as potential new performance models based on the new F-Type and next-generation XF.
If accurate, the move would seem to separate Jaguar in particular from the R-S badge that has adorned performance models like the XFR-S and XKR-S. Both Audi and Porsche use the letters RS to distinguish its most hardcore models as well (e.g. Audi RS7 Sportback and Porsche 911 GT3 RS). Whether the similarity was a factor in shifting to the SVR moniker, we don't know, but either way, we welcome the arrival of a new generation of Jaguar and Land Rover performance models - especially if they pack the 575-horsepower version of the company's ubiquitous 5.0-liter supercharged V8. Not incidentally, that delicious powerplant gained a couple of new engine bays to call home at Goodwood as well - it's not just found in the forthcoming Range Rover Sport SVR, it's found a home in the F-Type Project 7, too.
Ferrari exec to lead Jaguar North America
Tue, 06 Aug 2013Jaguar 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."
Jaguar Land Rover building new R&D center for hybrids, EVs, autonomous cars
Wed, 25 Sep 2013The success of Jaguar Land Rover in recent years has largely been down to a resurgent product lineup, but a recent move into the research and development will see the British-based, Indian-owned brands take the fight to its German rivals more aggressively than ever before.
JLR is investing 50 million pounds ($80,345,000, as of this writing) in a joint R&D center in central England. The move will more than triple its staff dedicated to research, from 150 to 500, with Wolfgang Epple, JLR's Director of Research and Technology telling Automotive News Europe, "In order to play among the big animals in automotive and to be anchored in the mind of customers you have to have offered something unique, to be first in market. We want to be one of the key premier automotive manufacturers."
Jaguar Land Rover's 50-million-pound contribution represents more than half of the 94-million-pound tab, on the so-called National Automotive Innovation Campus. Based at Warwick University, Tata's European Technical Center, Warwick Manufacturing Group and the Higher Education Funding Council, an agency of the British government, are all chipping in for the facility.
