Our business sources and customizes Defender D-90 and D-110 for Clients in all areas of the world. Different Clients have different needs and different global regions have different rules for importation of used vehicles.

If you live in the USA or Canada then you are in a very unique position.

Defender production and supply was limited, to two very small windows of time, in the USA as a consequence there are very few good quality NAS (North American Specification) Defenders available.

SO what are your options:

BUY NEW ?

Impossible

BUY USED NAS SPEC?

Possible but you are likely to pay a high price for a low quality vehicle

BUY USED GRAY IMPORT?

Is it legal?

DESIGN AND BUILD A CUSTOM DEFENDER?

Read on.....

This specific advert is for one of our award-winning 25 year old left-hand-drive Defender D90s. We are one of the only completely trusted exporters of the Defender into the US and Canada we do it quickly, we do it legally, and we do it very, very well.

We build every Defender we buy to the highest standard that you will be able to see in a 15 or 25 year-old vehicle (the minimum age for export to Canada and the US, respectively). However, the part of our business we are most proud of, and the part our customers are always most excited about and involved in, is our extensive custom build program. This is where we can design your Defender to your specifications.

In short: we will build your Defender exactly how you want it*
It’s what we do. All day, Every day.

Here’s how our process works:

1) You design your Land Rover Defender 90 down to the smallest detail on our website, or by giving us a call; our US toll-free number is

1-800-984-3355.

We advise and assist in any way we can, talking you through any doubts you may have about quality or export.

You place an order with us.

2) We select you (or you choose) a vehicle from our extensive stock of petrol and diesel engine left hand drive station wagons. We carefully source the best available Defenders from dry climates; our fantastic buying team is always on the move and on the hunt for prime examples of 15- and 25-year-old Defenders on solid corrosion-free chassis, turning down anything short of the best.

3) Your D90 begins its rebuild process. The Workshop Team strips it down to its bare structure, and goes over every inch of the vehicle in a logical and investigative / procedural manner, only passing it in to our Body Shop when it’s in tip-top mechanical and structural condition.

4) Your Defender D90 leaves the Body Shop with exactly the color and finish (matte, satin, gloss) you want – and it will look like new. The vehicle then moves to our Trim Shop, where a huge rebuild takes place from the ground up. Your specified accessories, tires, wheels, and interior finish are fitted. After a thorough clean and WaxOyl treatment, your Land Rover Defender D90 is complete.

5) By now you are eager to have your LRUK Custom Land Rover on your drive. You have long been receiving regular updates and pictures of your D90 throughout the build process. We organize the exportation of your finished custom-built vehicle. We have people every step of the way making sure things are done carefully and correctly.

6) Your Land Rover D90, built-to-order by Land Rovers UK, lands at your nearest port and you finally get to drive the Defender of your dreams home.

Every single one of our customers is a happy one. Look us up online – ‘Land Rovers UK Ltd’ – and read our testimonials. One thing our customers have in common is that they are all so heavily involved in the design and custom build process – you don’t place your order and a Defender turns up on your drive 10 weeks later. You’re involved every step of the way with our team.

It would be a gross understatement to say that our 20+ team of expert technicians know these machines like the backs of their hands. So take a plane, a train, or an automobile (many take all three!) to our premises in Somerset, South West England, and see first-hand the kind of experience and expertise our team possesses. Bring your family, bring your friends – we are always extremely pleased to welcome customers inside to see our beautiful Custom Defenders, of which we are immensely proud.

Look up our site online, check out our Facebook page, and don’t hesitate to give us a call from the US toll free on

1-800-984-3355

Quality. Customisation. Export.
Land Rovers UK

We hope to hear from you soon.

NOTE: *providing your design is safe, fit for purpose and within the realms of NHSTA / DOT regulatory spirit and federal requirements

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 to offer high-performance SVR models like Land Rover?

Tue, 01 Jul 2014

At 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.

Jaguar may join the FWD, small-car parade

Tue, 13 Aug 2013

Was it right for Chevrolet to detune the 1975 Corvette's base engine to 165 horsepower? Was Aston Martin wrong to make the Toyota iQ-based Cygnet? Is BMW crazy to be testing the new 1 Series with three-cylinder engines and front-wheel drive? It seems now, just as in the 1970s and 1980s, that emissions regulations and social considerations are driving some automakers to adopt unbefitting practices to maintain acceptance in the eyes of governments and consumers. Jaguar has jumped on the bandwagon, and is considering development of small, frugal, front-wheel-drive cars to help lower Jaguar Land Rover's average vehicle CO2 levels in light of tightening European emissions regulations, Autocar reports.
By 2020, the European Union expects the model range of every manufacturer to average 95 grams per kilometer, which is a new law passed by the European Parliament in April. Manufacturers who make more than 300,000 vehicles per year must meet these targets, and JLR is expected to be producing up to 700,000 vehicles per year by then. CO2 regulations after 2020 will only get stricter, as EU politicians already are talking about lowering CO2 levels to between 68 g/km and 78 g/km. (To put that in perspective, Autocar posits that driving a fully charged electric vehicle in Europe produces about 75 g/km when factoring in the power-generation infrastructure.)
Jaguar has some choices here, but so far they all have drawbacks. It could develop a new, compact chassis architecture for a line of compact vehicles, but the investment required for such a project could be prohibitively expensive. Jaguar has been looking into using the Land Rover Evoque platform for a small SUV, Autocar reports, but Land Rover brand manager John Edwards raises issue with such a plan, saying it may not be financially feasible.
