This 1988 Land Rover Defender 90 was recently imported from England. It is now located in Windsor Ontario and is for sale in Canada. This Defender has been recently refurbished including a brand new galvanized chassis (frame) and a new suspension including heavy duty coil springs and new polyurethane suspension bushings. This truck is set up as an off road and utility vehicle with a two seat configuration. The seats are newer style vinyl and cloth seats. The truck has been converted to a V8 engine with an automatic transmission. The engine starts and runs nicely and has plenty of power for highway driving. The truck sits on a set of mud terrain tires with plenty of tread left and alloy wheels. There is a full sized spare with matching rim and tire on the rear door. If you are looking for an off-road or trail rig this truck is ready to run with steel bumpers front and rear and a set of steel rock sliders. There are hi-lift jack points at the front and rear and in the sliders to assist in off-road recovery.
The paint job is a recent re-paint and it is in good condition with only minor scratched and blemishes that would be expected on a vehicle of this type. The body is in very good condition as well with only a few minor dents that do not detract from the overall vehicle. The worst of the dents are on the tops of the front fenders where it looks like prior to the repaint some tools hand been set on them causing multiple small dents. The easiest and most practical fix to this would be some chequer plate fender top protectors. The canvas top is in serviceable condition and has plenty of life left. The rear plastic window does have some fogging and could stand to be replaced. The interior is generally in good condition, it does have some road dust lurking in corners from off-road use but it would look great with a good cleaning. There was a radio installed at some point which has since been removed, the speaker grilles remain in the lower dashboard. one of them is missing the metal screening. The transfer case shifter is missing the vinyl trim boot but it does not effect function.
This truck would make a great trail or off-road rig or even a daily driver. The canvas top and removable door-tops make this a very fun to drive truck that is sure to turn heads. Please feel free to contact me with any questions regarding this vehicle. I have done my best to describe the condition of the vehicle and point out any and all defects that I am aware of. The truck is sold as-is with no warranties or guarantees expressed or implied. |

A car writer's year in new vehicles [w/video]
Thu, Dec 18 2014Christmas is only a week away. The New Year is just around the corner. As 2014 draws to a close, I'm not the only one taking stock of the year that's we're almost shut of. Depending on who you are or what you do, the end of the year can bring to mind tax bills, school semesters or scheduling dental appointments. For me, for the last eight or nine years, at least a small part of this transitory time is occupied with recalling the cars I've driven over the preceding 12 months. Since I started writing about and reviewing cars in 2006, I've done an uneven job of tracking every vehicle I've been in, each year. Last year I made a resolution to be better about it, and the result is a spreadsheet with model names, dates, notes and some basic facts and figures. Armed with this basic data and a yen for year-end stories, I figured it would be interesting to parse the figures and quantify my year in cars in a way I'd never done before. The results are, well, they're a little bizarre, honestly. And I think they'll affect how I approach this gig in 2015. {C} My tally for the year is 68 cars, as of this writing. Before the calendar flips to 2015 it'll be as high as 73. Let me give you a tiny bit of background about how automotive journalists typically get cars to test. There are basically two pools of vehicles I drive on a regular basis: media fleet vehicles and those available on "first drive" programs. The latter group is pretty self-explanatory. Journalists are gathered in one location (sometimes local, sometimes far-flung) with a new model(s), there's usually a day of driving, then we report back to you with our impressions. Media fleet vehicles are different. These are distributed to publications and individual journalists far and wide, and the test period goes from a few days to a week or more. Whereas first drives almost always result in a piece of review content, fleet loans only sometimes do. Other times they serve to give context about brands, segments, technology and the like, to editors and writers. So, adding up the loans I've had out of the press fleet and things I've driven at events, my tally for the year is 68 cars, as of this writing. Before the calendar flips to 2015, it'll be as high as 73. At one of the buff books like Car and Driver or Motor Trend, reviewers might rotate through five cars a week, or more. I know that number sounds high, but as best I can tell, it's pretty average for the full-time professionals in this business.
10 best new car deals in late September 2021
Wed, Sep 29 2021New car sales were drastically affected in 2020 due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, but things started to show signs of recovery toward the end of the year before really coming on strong in the early months of 2021. Now there's an ongoing shortage of microchips causing a great deal of pricing fluctuation and a limited supply of certain vehicles. That doesn't mean there aren't still great deals on new cars, though. Using data provided by TrueCar, we’ve compiled a list of some of the best automotive deals for September 2021. WeÂ’ve noted the original MSRP, the average transaction price, and the total savings in both dollars and as a percentage of the original sticker price. Basically, weÂ’ve done all the hard work for you! So now, all you need to do is compare deals, go on a few test drives, and maybe drive away in a great car (and an even better bargain).
