Here we have a very original 1987 Land Rover Defender 90 V8 Station Wagon. This is a right-hand drive model recently imported from the UK. eBay does not recognize the UK VIN and lists the vehicle as a 1980 model, however, it is a 1987 and I have the UK registration document to verify this.

It is a genuine Defender 90 station wagon with seating for seven. It has the 3.5L V8 which is quite rare for this UK model (most have the 2.5L 4-cylinder diesel or petrol.) It starts, runs, drives and stops perfectly and has good power and torque from the V8. Odometer has 111,000 recorded miles.

Just prior to export the vehicle passed the UK Ministry of Transport (MOT) test, which is required every year in the UK. This test is much more stringent than the inspections we have here in the US and the Land Rover passed no problem. The MOT test also advises on issues that may arise with the vehicle in the near future, however the Land Rover passed clear with no advisories and is therefore a safe and sound vehicle and certified to drive on UK roads. I will provide the MOT certificate to the new buyer.

I have all the import paperwork from US Customs and the vehicle is ready to be titled and registered in the US. Check with your state on requirements for titling and registering and I will ensure you have the required paperwork. I can title the vehicle in Texas if required.

Exterior

The paint and exterior decals all appear to be original. The vehicle is very clean and paint is shiny. Land Rover panels are aluminum and over the years can tend to oxidize. Where this occurs it causes the paint to bubble up and this has happened in a few places on the bodywork. This is purely cosmetic and as you can see from the pictures the vehicle still looks good but close up the oxidation is noticeable.

Interior

The interior is again very original, clean and tidy for 27 years old. It has the original Land Rover fitted rubber floor mats. Nothing bad to say about the interior apart from the headliner panel is sagging slightly in the rear.

Mechanical

Then engine and 5-speed transmission perform very well. It starts runs and idles well. It shifts through the gears well with no funny noises. Clutch is strong and smooth. Brakes are also strong and smooth. Vehicle runs very well with no issues. The chassis has had some weld repairs over the years and has had a new rear cross-member fitted recently.

Vehicle is located in Spring, TX, just north of Houston. Viewing welcome.

I will help with shipping where I can or work with your designated shipper.

I require a $500 deposit within 24hrs of eBay sale and full payment with 7 days by bank transfer. Collection within 14 days.

European automakers gear up for Brazilian production

Mon, 07 Oct 2013

Brazil is the place to be, apparently. Toyota has been investing in the South American country, as has BMW, which announced a $261 million investment in October 2012, on the heels of an Audi factory announcement in San José Chiapa. The high-end immigration is only set to continue, as Mercedes-Benz and Jaguar-Land Rover have both announced plans to set up manufacturing operations there.
Mercedes is the big news here, as its new facility will see the German manufacturer invest 170-million euros for production of its next-generation C-Class and upcoming GLA-Class. "Brazil is an important future market. With our local production we accept the challenge and take on the competition," noted Andreas Renschler, Management Board member for Production and Procurement at Mercedes-Benz Cars and Mercedes-Benz Vans. Production is expected to begin by 2016.
Jaguar-Land Rover, meanwhile, isn't so concrete in its plans. The news of its investment in South America comes from a job posting for a plant quality manager in Brazil that was picked up by the UK's AutoCar. "Portuguese language skills will be definite advantage" for interested candidates, according to the job listing. The want ad follows on the heels of remarks by Jaguar Land Rover's Dr. Ralph Speth, who said there are "very intensive discussions" with Brazil's government. Unlike Mercedes, there's no mention of which vehicles will be produced in South America, although AutoCar thinks the Freelander, sold in the US as the LR2, is a leading contender.

Jaguar Land Rover tech tracks brainwaves, heart, lungs

Wed, Jun 17 2015

Jaguar Land Rover has been on a bit of a tech kick lately, and its latest is called Mind Sense, which uses biometric sensors to monitor and enhance the driver's level of alertness. Jaguar is installing brainwave sensors adapted from NASA into the steering wheel of an XJ sedan, along with medical-grade heart and respiratory sensors in the seat. Together, the sensors would determine if the driver is focused on the road, dozing off, merely thinking about something else, or if the driver's stress level suddenly peaks. The system would enable the vehicle to better prepare for an emergency, or for a future autonomous vehicle to hand off control to a better-prepared driver where needed. At the same time, JLR is also working on an enhanced infotainment system designed to reduce the amount of time the driver's hands are off the wheel and their eyes are off the road. The system determines which control they're reaching for on the display and engages it while their finger is still in mid-air, deploying an ultrasonic pulse to provide artificial haptic feedback without actually having to touch anything. Finally, a new haptic accelerator pedal is under development that could alert the driver to respond to an impending situation without overloading the senses with chimes and beeps. These latest developments follow the demonstration of a remote-control system installed on a Range Rover Sport, and follow in a long line of new technologies under development by the British automaker. JAGUAR LAND ROVER ROAD SAFETY RESEARCH INCLUDES BRAIN WAVE MONITORING TO IMPROVE DRIVER CONCENTRATION AND REDUCE ACCIDENTS - Jaguar Land Rover's pioneering Mind Sense project is researching measuring brainwaves to monitor driver concentration in the car - Researchers are developing a Wellness Seat in a Jaguar XJ which analyses the driver's heart rate and breathing to monitor driver health and stress - Touchscreens that predict which button you want to press as the user's fingers are in mid-air - to minimise time spent with eyes off the road - Jaguar Land Rover researchers use new haptic accelerator pedal to communicate hazards to the driver Whitley, UK: Jaguar Land Rover has revealed a range of new road safety technology research projects that are being developed to reduce the number of accidents caused by drivers who are stressed, distracted and not concentrating on the road ahead.
