1984 Land Rover 90 County Station Waggon on 2040-cars
Long Beach, California, United States
|
Totally original 1984 Land Rover 90, or defender as later known. Imported into the US around mid part of last year for personal use, but circumstances have changed and I need to sell. Vehicle shows 161K and I would think this be pretty accurate. Doesn't run rich, in fact runs lovely. Choke does need adjustment, probably needs a freshen up of fluids etc. as has been sitting a while now, but started lovely with a little ez-start and ran fine after a few minutes of playing with the accelerator pedal. Motor runs really, really sweet, no top end noises, has had points and condenser, rotor arm / cap recently, no apparent chug of smoke on start up, she runs just fine and whilst wont propel the car to any record breaking speeds, it will get to where you need to go, and probably to most places others wont....Will probably cruise at 65-70 on a highway. The 5 speed transmission works fine, the clutch operates well and the power steering seems to function fine too. Brakes seems to stop well. has discs on the front and drums on the rear. I haven't checked the diff lock, but their pretty much bullet proof, so I don't doubt it works fine. I can have it checked if needed.
Both foot wells have been repaired on both sides, the bulkhead looks very solid otherwise, the drivers side does have a little external corrosion showing to appear, I don't know if these are original or if they have been repaired. there is some hand painted touched up area's under the hood, I don't know if this was some previous rust repair, the rear door has some corrosion at the frame welds. Can be sorted pretty easily, as I would think the rear wiper could. The chassis is solid, has had some welding near a front outrigger, well done and very solid, all in all a solid frame. There is a little ally corrosion in a few of the panels, door bottoms etc, and the door frames need repair, kits available for a few bucks, but for the year, she's really clean. I'll list as many images as I can on ebay and will send any others I have by separate email to anyone interested. I have tried to shot all god and bad parts as I have seen them. I haven't checked all levels, the underside doesn't reveal any great patches of oil that look fresh, I will have the levels checked before it goes anywhere. Modifications I can see are front suspension striker plate, electric fan, carpet replaced at some stage. bits I can see that need to be done, door bottoms need repair, rear was wipe not working, radio antenna not connected, or radio not working. think that's it. plus the bits of rust that are inherent to a 30 years old British classic truck, nothing major, mostly just superficial bits and bobs that depending on the climate may never raise there head again. This is one of the early 90's, which had the galvanized door and tub caps, the panels and frame were the most solid of the models, made shortly after the Series 3 end of production. Whilst the motor isn't the most powerful, it does the job and I think may well have been rebuilt at some stage, that said she would really benefit from say a 200 tdi conversion, which was part of my original plan. The vehicle is currently located in Long Beach CA. is not titled as yet, I had simply parked her up when she came in and I had storage on the west coast, so that's where I trucked it to. the original port of entry was NY around June 2013. The vehicle cannot be registered in the state of CA as it wont met emissions. currently just parked there in private storage. You would check the need to check the requirements in your home state to register a foreign imported vehicle that has ben approved entry by the EPA as was manufactured over 25 years ago. I would encourage inspection of the car. Can be seen any day with prior notice in the Long Beach CA area. Once won, deposit of $250.00 to be sent by pay pal, balance to be settled and vehicle collected within 7 days. I can assist with a shipper. this would all need to arranged by buyer and at buyers expense. I do have a full roof cage, powder coated black, no rear ladder, also a set of 4 boost alloys with pretty good all weather tires, these can be negotiated after sale if or interest. Sold as seen. no warranty included or implied.

Land Rover Defender V8 vs. Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 | V8 4x4s square off on paper
Thu, Feb 25 2021Land Rover pulled the sheet off its 2022 Defender on Wednesday, introducing another high-performance V8 to the off-road segment. This time, it's a 5.0-liter, supercharged V8 boasting 518 horsepower. It will be available in both the Defender 90 and 110 models. In the former, Land Rover says it can crack off a 0-60 run in just 4.9 seconds on its way to a top speed of 149 mph. The long-wheelbase 110 will be a bit slower, but "slow" probably isn't the right adjective to use here at all. But Land Rover isn't the only automaker offering a high-performance variant of its off-road SUV. While Jeep may have been sneered at for presenting the 2021 Wrangler Rubicon 392 on the heels of the 2021 Ford Bronco's introduction, it starts to make a lot more sense in this context. There's reportedly a high-output Bronco on the way, too, so call Jeep the dinosaur of the group all you want, but you can't put a price on being first. Well, you can, actually, but that's not the point. Thankfully, both Land Rover and Jeep have provided enough specs for us to rough out a comparison chart. Since the Rubicon 392 is offered only in four-door guise, we're looking at the long-wheelbase Defender 110 as its direct competitor here. Have a look: There are a few caveats to mention off the top. For starters, we don't have an official curb weight for the V8-powered Defender yet, as Land Rover has not finalized its U.S. specs. We used the European figures (as provided by a spokesperson), which we expect to be accurate within about 50 pounds. The 0-60 time provided by Land Rover was for the Defender 90, which is smaller and somewhat lighter than the 110. When equipped with the inline-6, the Defender 110 is about a tenth of a second slower to 60 than the Defender 90, so we figure it should be roughly the same for the V8. While the Defender has nearly 50 horsepower on the Wrangler, that advantage disappears thanks to the Land Rover V8's monster weight penalty, which will fall somewhere between 600 and 700 pounds depending on equipment. Yikes. On the flip side, however, the Land Rover has the edge in top speed, and it's not even close. Chalk that up to the tires, we suspect. We know for a fact that the Rubicon 392's all-terrains dictate its speed limiter; Jeep's own engineers told us as much. This could make for a (hypothetically) interesting drag race, as the Jeep's advantage off the line may evaporate once triple digits come into play.
Jaguar SUV mule doing Ring testing in Evoque clothes
Mon, 28 Apr 2014Jaguar has moved its Range Rover Evoque-bodied tests of the production C-X17 Concept from icy streets to the legendary Nürburgring, as work continues on the brand's first SUV.
Really, there's not a great deal of new stuff here. Based on the number plates, this is a different vehicle from the one we saw back in March, which we originally identified as the upcoming replacement for the Land Rover Freelander/LR2. The details, though, appear largely the same. The biggest distinction we can see between the March tests and this are the US-spec headlights, which add amber reflectors at their sides. Based on these shots, it does seem as if the C-X17 should be a fairly poised road vehicle, as the engineers hustle it around the 'Ring.
Of course, as soon our spies can capture images of a production-bodied C-X17, we'll be sure to pass those on to you. Until then, take a look up top for images of the Range Rover-bodied Jaguar as it tests at Germany's Nürburgring. You can also scroll down for our March images for the C-X17 mules testing on public roads.
Land Rover to build Discovery Sport at new Brazilian factory
Fri, Oct 31 2014Looking forward to getting your mitts on a new Land Rover Discovery Sport? Well you should, because it promises to be a markedly better product than the Freelander/LR2 it replaces. Just don't assume it will necessarily be built in the UK, as just about every Land Rover has in the company's 66-year history. The new Discovery Sport (pictured above in Sao Paulo) will, of course, be built in the UK, at the Halewood plant where the Evoque is made and which has in the past handled the Freelander, the Jaguar X-Type and a variety of Fords. But it will also be assembled for local consumption at JLR's new factory in Changsu, China. And, according to the press release down below, it will also be made for the Latin American market at the new factory being built in Brazil. The new plant is being built in Itatiaia on the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro and will come online in 2016. Once it gets up to speed by the end of 2020, it will have the capacity to build 24,000 vehicles each year, ratcheting its workforce up from 400 when it opens to nearly 1,000 when all's said and done. The Discovery Sport will be one of the products made there for the local market, but it surely won't be the only one. As in China, we expect the Evoque will be built there as well, and we wouldn't be surprised to see the new Jaguar XE join it in the near future, either. Don't expect the Brazilian-made vehicles to be sold in the US, though: those will likely still be imported from the UK... at least, that is, until the facility said to be under consideration for the southern United States opens its doors. JAGUAR LAND ROVER CONFIRMS ITS ALL-NEW DISCOVERY SPORT FOR BRAZIL FACILITY - Jaguar Land Rover confirms Discovery Sport as one of the models to be produced at its new local manufacturing facility in Brazil - R$750m investment in the new facility in Itatiaia in the State of Rio de Janeiro - Annual production capacity of 24,000 units for the Brazilian market only – from 2016 Sao Paulo, Brazil – Jaguar Land Rover confirmed today, at the Sao Paulo International Motor Show, that its breakthrough Land Rover Discovery Sport will be one of the first models to be built at its new R$750m (GBP240m) local manufacturing facility in Itatiaia, Brazil. The new factory, which will see a total investment of R$750m (GBP240m) by the end of 2020, will supplement UK production and have the capacity to build 24,000 vehicles annually for the Brazilian market.
