FAQ'S


1) How Much Does Shipping To The USA Cost - Shipping to the East Coas (Brunswick, Charleston, Baltimore, New York etc) is $2100 USD and to the West is $2600


2) Will The Vehicle Pass US Customs Clearance - I have now exported over 50 Landrovers to the United States and have not had an issue with any of them. As long as the vehicle is over 25 years old and has the original engine and chassis with matching numbers on the VIN plate and UK title everything is guaranteed to be accepted. All my vehicles are checked by myself to ensure everything is correct.


3) Why Should I Buy One From Overseas And Not One Already In The USA - These Landrovers are very expensive in the USA. From me they will take 20-28 days to arrive but you will be getting your Landy at a significant saving.

Hi and welcome to my advert for this original 1984 Landrover Defender 90 pickup truck in a green colour. The Landrover has covered a low 96,000 miles and has the 2.5 diesel engine which is linked to a 5 speed manual transmission. It is a permanent four wheel drive vehicle and has 5 months of the UK MOT yearly safety test remaining. This is an unrestored original that is ready to be used and appreciated.


The Landrover is very solid in all the usual weak areas. The bulkheas is in good shape as you can see from the images. Similarly, the door frames are in good shape along with the floor pans. There are many images of the chassis at the bottom of the listing so please take a look throught them. There are the usual odd little dings in the body but this is what these Landrovers are about. The paint is finished in green and it looks like it has been hand painted at some point. The finish is presentable but not of showroom quality which again in my opinion is how these Landrovers should be. The tyres are all good and they are of an off road nature.


The interior is in good condition. The 3 front seats that are finished in a leather/vinyl material are in good shape with no wear or rips at all. They are very comfortable yet supportive at the same time. The door cards are in good shape and are nicely secured to the doors. The dashboard is in good shape apart from in the middle where you can see where a stereo has once been. The roof is nice and clean. All seat belts work and the doors lock as they ought to. The wind windows all work without fault.


Mechanically the Landrover is superb and I cannot fault it. The engine has all been rebuilt recently and runs nice and quietly for a diesel. The engine itself is a 2.5 diesel which is couple to a 5 speed manual transmission. The Landrover will cruise up to 70 mph meaning that it can cope with Freeway driving if needed. The gearbox is excellent and is nice and quiet. The clutch etc are all good. There are no nasty noises and the truck drives very nicely indeed and is very fun to drive. The great thing about these Landrovers are along with being the best 4x4 in the World it will achieve 30 mpg upwards and better than this, it will put a smile on your face. The heaters all work as they ought to.

Child cobalt miners: Automakers pledge ethical minerals sourcing for EVs

Wed, Nov 29 2017

BERLIN - Leading carmakers including Volkswagen and Toyota pledged on Wednesday to uphold ethical and socially responsible standards in their purchases of minerals for an expected boom in electric vehicle production. Demand for minerals such as cobalt, graphite and lithium is forecast to soar in the coming years as governments crack down on vehicle pollution and carmakers step up their investments in electric models. To cover its plans for more than 80 new models by 2025, Volkswagen alone is looking for partners in China, Europe and North America to provide battery cells and related technology worth more than 50 billion euros ($59 billion). Talks with major cobalt producers, including Glencore, at VW's Wolfsburg headquarters last week ended without a deal. More than half of the world's cobalt comes from the Democratic Republic of Congo, a country racked by political instability and legal opacity, and where child labor is used in mines. On Wednesday, a group of 10 leading passenger-car and truck manufacturers announced an initiative to jointly identify and address ethical, environmental, human and labor rights issues in raw materials sourcing. The partnership dubbed "Drive Sustainability" consists of VW, Toyota Motor Europe, Ford, Daimler, BMW, Honda, Jaguar Land Rover, Volvo Cars and truckmakers Scania and Volvo. The alliance "will assess the risks posed by the top raw materials (such as mica, cobalt, rubber and leather) in the automotive sector," said Stefan Crets of the CSR Europe business network. "This will allow Drive Sustainability to identify the most impactful activities to pursue" to address issues within the supply chain.Reporting by Andreas Cremer.Related Video: Image Credit: Michael Robinson Chavez/The Washington Post via Getty Images Green BMW Ford Honda Jaguar Land Rover Mercedes-Benz Automakers Toyota Volkswagen Volvo Green Automakers Green Culture Electric Scania ethics mining

Going high-tech, the 4x4 way

Is It An Off-Road Adventure Or Just A Walk In The Park?
I remember having to get out and lock hubs and shift into neutral to engage low range.
Coming off press previews of the 2013 Land Rover Range Rover and the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee that involved some heavy-duty off-road rock climbing, I'm simply amazed at the capabilities that these vehicles possess. But even more impressive (or troubling depending on your perspective) is the relative ease with which you can operate these vehicles in seemingly impossible terrain.

Jaguar Land Rover posts profitable quarter amidst big yearly losses

Mon, May 20 2019

Jaguar has posted its first profit in quite some time, as the financial quarter ending on March 31 brought in a net income of $151.6 million. However, that is the light in the end of the tunnel, as full year results through March showed a $4.58 billion loss (GBP3.6 billion). The losses are again attributable to declining sales in China, with a whiff of the still-lingering Brexit process. While JLR's annual U.S. sales were up 8.1 percent, and U.K. sales improved by 8.4%, overall sales came down 5.8% to 578,915 vehicles. For April, Chinese sales nearly halved as they dropped by 46 percent. Earlier this year, JLR's woes caused its owner Tata Motors to post the biggest ever quarterly loss in Indian corporate history, at nearly $4 billion. JLR's CEO Ralf Speth stated that the company is "reducing complexity" and transforming its business by cost savings and cash flow improvements, citing the fourth-quarter profits as an example of the ongoing turnaround. Speth said JLR has already managed to deliver $1.59 billion (GBP1.25 billion) of efficiencies and savings. JLR says its turnaround program, dubbed Charge, will drive it to at least $3.18 billion (GBP2.5 billion) of investment, working capital and profit improvements by March 2020, and that it currently has $4.84 billion (GBP3.8 billion) of cash. Speth continued that JLR will "go forward as a transformed company that's leaner and fitter," and that the sustained investment in new products and technologies will drive future demand. There has been earlier speculation of Tata Motors selling JLR to the PSA Group, but as Autocar reports, Tata's financial chief again refuted these rumors. JLR also announced today that its CFO of 11 years, Ken Gregor is stepping down after 22 years with the company, and that he will be succeeded by JLR's Chief Transformation Officer, Adrian Mardell.
