Offered for sale is my 1994 D90. History: As mentioned, I bought the Defender in 2002 with roughly 80,000 miles on it as a daily driver. Despite my grand delusions of testing it's Camel Trophy abilities, I've never had it off road. After a couple of years it became a sometimes second vehicle, but mostly sat unused. Aside from a stack of receipts, I have no history of the truck before my ownership. I purchased it from a guy in Virginia who incidentally was replacing it with a 109. Chassis/Body: Much of the rust proofing was peeling, so I spent some time scraping the loose stuff off to get a better idea of the chassis's actual condition. There is of plenty surface rust, but it's stout. The body is for the most part in passable condition though the doors have looked better. They've galvanic corrosion around the bottom that should be visible in the photos. There are a couple of dings around the tail lights, and the bonnet also has some dings on it. The Drive Train: The odometer shows 96,000 miles. The odometer also does not work. Actually, it does... The problem is where the cable connects to the transfer case. Spinning the cable activates the speedometer. As I recall - it's been a long time since I looked at it - there's a clip of some sort that is supposed to fasten the cable housing to the transfer case, but isn't. It stopped working sometime after it was retired as a daily driver, so there's not been much incentive to fix it. You may take my estimate for what it's worth, but I doubt the truck has yet made it to 100,000 miles. No doubt the engine needs a tune. It hasn't been looked at in years. I fired it up for the first time this year in preparation for sale, and the 'service engine' light came on. Having said that, it started first time, without hesitation, and settled into a nice idle. It revs well, and sounds good. The exhaust from the Y pipe back is stainless. The truck does not have cats.

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.

Here's today's round of auto plant closures in response to coronavirus

Fri, Mar 20 2020

More automakers have shuttered factories, as businesses everywhere work to slow the spread of the Covid-19 coronavirus — and as the pandemic slows sales and disrupts parts supply chains. On Friday, the following closures were announced: Â• Volvo will close its factories in Sweden and the United States from March 26 to April 14. Volvo's U.S. facility, in Charleston, South Carolina, makes the S60 sedan. Its assembly plant in Torslanda, Sweden, turns out the XC90, SC60, and V90. Other Swedish facilities make engines and component parts. A Volvo factory in Ghent, Belgium, that builds the XC40 and V60 closed earlier this week and is expected to remain offline until April 6. Volvo's four factories in China have been reopened after a shutdown earlier this year. Â• Jaguar Land Rover announced that it will suspend production at its assembly plants in the UK over the coming week. The shutdown is expected to last until April 20. Elsewhere, production continues at the company's factories in India and Brazil, and JLR's joint-venture plant in China reopened at the end of February. Â• Bentley is closing its factory in Crewe, England, for four weeks, effective today. Â• Bugatti has put its atelier in Molsheim, France, on hiatus. No date was given for when assembly of its supercars might resume. Â• Mercedes-Benz on Monday will shut down its SUV factory in Alabama and its van assembly plant in South Carolina. Both will remain closed for a minimum of two weeks. Tesla yesterday revealed that it will suspend operations at its Fremont, California, vehicle assembly plant next week, on order from local officials there. Yesterday's factory closure announcements also included the U.S. assembly plants for Toyota (until April 6), Volkswagen (through March 29), Subaru (through March 29), and Hyundai (no time period specified). They join GM, Ford, Chrysler, Honda, Nissan, and Harley-Davidson, which earlier this week announced the suspension of production at their facilities.
