1985 Defender 110 County Station Wagon, RHD, 2.5 liter four cylinder diesel, five speed LT77 gearbox, Marine Blue with black vinyl interior.  This vehicle was used by the National Health Service in the UK as an ambulance support vehicle, and was mainly garage kept and maintained to a strict schedule.  This County Station Wagon is just about completely original:  Original Marine Blue paint is in remarkable condition, still shiny and bright, and the galvanized cappings are in very good condition.   Body panels are just about perfectly straight, and the doors are tight and close correctly.   Window cranks work correctly, and all the glass is in good condition with no cracks.  Chassis and bulkhead are original, and in excellent condition for the year, there is no bulkhead rot around the air vents, hinges, the kick panels are super solid.   Outriggers, rear crossmember, front horns are all very solid, with a lot of the original chassis paint still showing.   Genuine 12 seater, with the 3-3-6 seating position, with the 2 rearmost inward facing jump seats.   Headliner is in very good condition, as are the black vinyl seats.   Dash is also just about perfect, with some very small holes where the CB radio equipment was attached.     Engine is the original 2.5 liter four cylinder diesel.  Fires up first shot with a few seconds of glow plug, and idles correctly, with no excess smoke.    Steering is tight, and does not wander.   The LT77 five speed gearbox works perfectly, with no excessive noise, whine, grinding or jumping out of gear.    Clutch works correctly, with no judder or slip.     Bonnet mounted spare tire will be fitted prior to delivery.    Fitted with Michelin XZL tires with about 40% tread left.   Electrical system works correctly, e.g. gauges, lights, horn, etc.    Original, raised letter rear number plate included in sale.  Original, raised letter front number plate not shown but also included in sale. 

There are not many numbers matching, original condition 110's out there like this, it is a superb example of a well-maintained vehicle that will provide many more years of dependable use.    This is NOT one a re-vinned "Franken-Rover" cobbled together from different Roves, or a newer model with an old VIN plate.   The actual age and originality of this Land Rover cannot be questioned.    You will not have to worry about whether or not an insurance claim will be denied because of a discrepancy in the model year if you get into an accident.   You will not have to worry about US Customs taking your vehicle.   It has a clear Pennsylvania title.    If you have any questions about this vehicle, please ask me before bidding, and please be aware that this is not a restored, galvanized frame, fresh paint, new Puma 2.4 liter Land Rover.  While it has been extremely well maintained and is in amazing condition for its age, it still has all of the hallmarks of a used vehicle:  small rock chips from highway use, minor galvanic corrosion on the aluminum along the lower sills, some rust on the mudflap brackets, side steps, some scratches in the paintwork, some small tears on back of one of the middle seats, and other minor wear that is to be expected.    I received negative feedback from a previous sale of a Land Rover 110, where the buyer expected a restored vehicle for the price of a solid, mechanically and structurally sound Land Rover in ORIGINAL condition that had fair wear and tear.   Be aware that what you are bidding on is NOT NEW, NOT RESTORED, and PLEASE ask questions.   I have provided the best description I can of the vehicle.  I have included my phone number.   Call me and/or message me through EBAY.  I would trust this Land Rover to make a long trip, but if you are used to driving a new Range Rover Sport, it may not be for you.   It is a great 110 at a great price.  Period.  I have imported over 300 Land Rovers over the past 19 years, and this is one of the best unrestored vehicles I have seen.    I have driven it over 500 miles and it has run just the way it should.    I can arrange delivery door to door, or come out and drive it home.    I will be uploading additional photos shortly.

Jaguar Land Rover CEO: Wrong Brexit deal will cost thousands of UK jobs

Tue, Sep 11 2018

BIRMINGHAM, England — The wrong Brexit deal could cost tens of thousands of jobs, the boss of Britain's biggest carmaker Jaguar Land Rover warned on Tuesday, saying he had no idea whether his plants would be able to operate after Britain leaves the European Union next year. Ralf Speth also said that the company would not be able to build cars if customs checks meant that the motorway to and from the southern English port of Dover, which is used to transport components, becomes a "car park" due to snarl-ups of people no longer able to move freely among EU countries. Speth made the warning at a conference in Birmingham, central England, speaking shortly before Prime Minister Theresa May, who is battling to have her so-called Chequers Brexit plan accepted by many in her Conservative Party as well as the EU ahead of Britain's departure from the bloc on March 29. "A thousand (jobs were) lost as a result of diesel policy, and those numbers will be counted in the tens of thousands if we do not get the right Brexit deal," warned Speth, referring to redundancies made earlier this year at the firm. "Currently I do not even know if any of our manufacturing facilities in the UK will be able to function on the 30th," he said. The boss of JLR, which built nearly a third of Britain's cars last year, also said long-standing issues around low productivity in Britain could be compounded by a Brexit agreement which made the country less competitive. "It is thousands of pounds cheaper to produce vehicles for instance in Eastern Europe than in Solihull, and what decisions will I be forced to make if Brexit means not merely that costs go up but that we cannot physically build cars on time and on budget in the UK?" he said.Reporting by Costas Pitas

See official rules on Omaze. Enter to win this giveaway or any other Omaze experience now through April 23, 2021 and receive 500 extra entries into any campaign plus a chance to win $10K with code GOGREEN500. Simply add the discount at checkout. Whether you like it or not, there will come a day when most, if not all of us, will be driving electric cars. For some of us that day can't come soon enough, and in honor of Earth Day we've put together a list of our favorite car giveaways so you can save some green while being green.  Win a 2021 Porsche Taycan Turbo S and $20,000 - Enter Here If there’s one thing Porsche is good at, itÂ’s making fast, beautiful cars, and the Taycan Turbo S is no exception. Making 750 horsepower, 774 lb-ft of torque and a top speed of 161 miles per hour, punching the accelerator will surely throw you back in your seat. In fact, its 0-60 time of 2.6 seconds matches that of the quickest Porsche 911 ever made, the Turbo S. The difference between this Taycan Turbo S and that 911 Turbo S, of course, is that the only reason youÂ’ll ever need to stop off at a gas station is to fill up on snacks. That and the fact the Taycan doesn't actually have a turbo anywhere in the car. We wouldnÂ’t be reaching for a bag of FlaminÂ’ Hot Cheetos, though, because this incredibly comfortable leather interior is immaculate, and weÂ’d hope to keep it that way. Enter here for a chance to win this prize worth $220,000. Win a Himalaya Land Rover Defender 110 EV and $20,000 - Enter Here The Land Rover Defender is an icon: an intense, luxurious off-roader that turns heads and can crawl up nearly anything. The problem? For the past 20+ years it hasn't been available in the United States and it's never been what youÂ’d call environmentally friendly. But this Defender is different. ItÂ’s vintage, restored by Himalaya and itÂ’s all-electric. At 275 horsepower, you wonÂ’t be thrown back in your seat, but the 406 lb-ft of torque helps make this an incredibly capable rock crawler.

Jaguar Land Rover gets to work on new university R&D center

Fri, Mar 20 2015

Jaguar Land Rover has a raft of new products in the pipeline, from the new Defender to the next-generation XF sedan. But new product isn't the only thing the British automaker is investing in: it's also opening new facilities around the world, including what it's calling the National Automotive Innovation Centre back home in the UK. Based at the University of Warwick, the new $220-million R&D center is the result of a joint effort between JLR, its parent company Tata, the manufacturing arm of the university and the British government. The facility will bring together professionals from the automaker as well as its suppliers with academics to encourage, as the name suggests, innovation in the automotive sector. Its 355,000 square feet are earmarked to become the hub for Jaguar Land Rover's advanced research activities, including "workshops, laboratories, virtual engineering suites and advanced powertrain facilities, equipped to enable a full range of design, visualisation and prototyping activities." The cornerstore was just laid in a ceremony this week, but the facility isn't due to open until the Spring of 2017 when it will encompass some 1,000 employees, including 600 relocated by JLR to the new location from other sites in the UK.
