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

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."

Jaguar Land Rover calling in 100k vehicles in three separate campaigns

Sun, Feb 8 2015

Jaguar Land Rover is recalling an estimated 104,114 vehicles in three separate campaigns in cooperation with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The largest of them affects Range Rovers made between April 15, 2005, and September 4, 2012, covering 74,648 units in America from the 2006 to 2012 model years. In those affected vehicles, the front brake hose could rupture, leaking brake fluid and decreasing the capability of the brakes to, you know... stop the vehicle. In a similar but separate recall, subsequent Range Rovers from the 2013 and 2014 model years (manufactured between August 16, 2012, and January 8, 2014) are also being recalled for a brake issue – this time due to the incorrect routing of the brake vacuum hose. The issue could wear down the hose and disable the power assist, again impeding the brakes from properly functioning. This second recall also affects the 2014 Range Rover Sport (specifically those manufactured between May 7, 2013, and January 8, 2014), affecting 24,679 units between both models across the United States. A third smaller recall concerns the 2012-2015 Jaguar XK Â– namely those built between March 4, 2011, and March 20, 2014. This campaign involves the front side parking lamps, which might switch off after about five minutes, in contravention of federal standards. As such, an estimated 4,787 units are being called in. In all three cases, owners of the affected vehicles can expect to hear from their local dealer to arrange to bring in their wayward British luxury vehicles to have the relevant issue fixed. RECALL Subject : Front Brake Hose(s) may Rupture Report Receipt Date: JAN 27, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V039000 Component(s): SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC Potential Number of Units Affected: 74,648 Manufacturer: Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC SUMMARY: Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC (Land Rover) is recalling certain model year 2006-2012 Land Rover Range Rover vehicles manufactured April 15, 2005, to September 4, 2012. One or both of the flexible front brake hoses may rupture causing loss of brake fluid. CONSEQUENCE: If one or both of the flexible brake hoses fails, the vehicle may require a longer distance to stop, increasing the risk of a crash. REMEDY: Land Rover will notify owners, and dealers will replace the left and right front brake hoses, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin March 13, 2015. Owners may contact Land Rover customer service at 1-800-637-6837.

Tata confirms JLR is looking at NA for new plant

Thu, Feb 26 2015

Despite recent rumors to the contrary, Jaguar Land Rover is considering building a factory in North America, though not necessarily in the United States. The confirmation comes directly from former Tata Motors boss and still chairman emeritus Ratan Tata in a conversation with Automotive News. "The company is indeed looking at North America as a location for another plant. Where they locate that plant, in which country or which state they locate, is something they will need to decide," Tata said to AN. The magnate indicated that he wasn't taking part in the decision, though. Rumors of JLR's plans to open a factory in the US go back to at least to 2014. The automaker was reportedly looking to open a plant in the South to produce around 200,000 vehicles a year, and at the time, South Carolina was considered a possible location. However, later speculation made Georgia a likely contender, especially after the state's governor reportedly flew to the UK to pitch the company on the idea. Recently, the business had allegedly changed its mind and had turned the sights towards Austria or Turkey as potential alternatives. JLR is seemingly on a factory building binge at the moment. It opened a new engine plant in the UK late last year and its first manufacturing center in China at about the same time. The latest Land Rover Discovery Sport will also get assembled in Brazil for the local market.
