we did a rare find. The London police department decided to let go of their
beloved Land Rover Defender 110 which was their show vehicle for 27 years. It
was a gift by Land Rover in the late 1980’s to get exposure in the London area.
It was dry stored all the time and serviced by Land Rover specialists which
shows! When we bought
it, it was in an excellent state. No rust at all, very well treated and
serviced. The chassis looks like it just rolled out of the factory. Although it
was in this condition we did a full rebuild on the engine, due to its age. We
gave her new brakes all around, new suspension and shocks and lots of other parts
that showed marks of age. Therefore we can guarantee that she’ll have an
excellent second life in the US. LIST OF WORK DONE/ NEW PARTS (see pictures!!) Engine:
Complete Rebuild, all new or restored parts Brakes: All
new brakes around. Discs, calipers, pads, etc. Suspension: New
spring and new heavy duty shocks all around Drivetrain Oils: All
new. Gearbox, transfer box, axles, diffs, etc. Chassis:
Already in mint condition, see pictures! The Engine The 3.5 V8
engine is a very reliable and easy to maintain engine. It was developed many
years back so when installed in the Defender it was a fully developed and
popular engine. It isn’t the most powerful power source in the world, but it
pulls good and takes you everywhere. We carried out a complete engine overhaul.
All gaskets new, lubricants fresh, sparkplugs and leads, and so on. The Transmission She has a 5
speed manual transmission. Both gearbox and transfer box work excellent.
No weird noises, rattles or what so ever. Selecting gears goes smooth as it
should. The Defender is permanently in 4 wheel drive. High/low gear and
differential lock are present and work perfectly. The gear knob is below and
next to the gearbox stick. The Body The aluminum
body and paintwork are in a very good condition. Of course you can see here and
there that it isn’t new, some scratches and age marks. But for a 27 year old
vehicle, it is really beautiful! The bulkhead and foot wells are clean and rust
free. The doors are totally straight and have rust free bottoms, which is
pretty unique. The windows work as they should, the same goes for all the
locks. Please take care of the door hinges, they tend to rust if not regularly
looked after. The Defender has
a tow bar with electrics. The Chassis The complete
chassis is in mint condition (see pictures). It is hard and strong as to expect
from this Defender. It has been coated with a special impregnation substance
that prevents rust and keeps it strong. This was done every two years by the London
police department. The chassis
number or VIN is clearly visible. US VIN decoders won't recognize this VIN
because it's a European VIN. The VIN is: SALLDHMV7BA278219
The Interior The inside of
the vehicle is clean, tidy and original. The 5 seats and 2 benches are in a
very good and original condition. All have good quality seat belts. The tires The Defender has
got 4 good all terrain tires and a spare on the rear door. The tires are perfect
for road use and not too heavy terrain. If you want to go into heavy terrain
with sand, mud and dirt, it is to be advised to put a set of mud tires on it. Service It has just got
a full service. All the oils and lubricants in the axles, gearbox, transfer box
and so one have been replaced. The Defender’s power steering system is in
excellent condition. Customs, title and delivery The vehicle passed all DOT,
EPA and DMV test/inspections and is 100% USA legal. Furthermore, in contrast to
a lot of Defenders for sale on eBay, this Defender is already in the USA, Maryland, and has cleared customs, meets all EPA & DOT regulations and is ready to be titled. All necessary
paperwork will be included. Where needed, we can assist
with the titling as we have got the experience. If preferred, for
transportation you can make use of our reliable trucker. Contact me for more
details and quotes. Deposit We require a
deposit of $500, - within 24 hours after the end of auction.

Aston Martin DB10 spied in action on James Bond Spectre set
Tue, Feb 17 2015Spectre, the next film in the James Bond franchise, is due for release on November 6 of this year. That means there's filming happening right now all over Europe as scenes are stitched together, and one of them involves the Aston Martin DB10 shuffling through maneuvers at Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire, England. Our guess is that Bond has become an unwelcome guest at a fancy event – there's a Porsche 959 and a Bugatti EB110 in the courtyard – which is why he is forced to make one of his quick-reversing escapes under fire. While that was being captured last week, the Spectre production crew put together another behind-the-scenes clip from filming in Austria, which gives us a look at the Range Rover Sport SVR and Land Rover Defender "Bigfoot" crushing it up some snowy mountain passes. That clip is below. Yes, we're excited.

Jaguar CEO says people just don't want EVs right now
Mon, Jun 22 2015"Customers are not impressed with it currently." These are the words of one Ralf Speth, CEO of Jaguar Land Rover, spoke at the Automotive News Europe Congress in Birmingham, England. The "it" Speth is referring to is battery technology, which he characterized as "too heavy, too expensive," and with power density that's "too low." That all could go some way towards explaining why the British automaker has yet to bring an electric vehicle to market, why it killed the C-X75 hybrid-turbine supercar project, and why it only recently started offering hybrid versions of its Range Rover models (and has yet to offer them in the United States). That doesn't mean the company won't pursue electric propulsion in the future, though. According to Automotive News Europe, Speth forecasts that "the next generation of batteries will be higher density, lower weight and the cost will come down." What he didn't say, exactly, is when he expects that next generation of battery tech to come around – or when JLR will start to more closely embrace electric propulsion. In the meantime, Jaguar Land Rover will continue investing in research and development. Since Tata acquired the brands from Ford seven years ago, JLR has quadrupled its R&D budget and doubled the number of engineers on staff. Related Video:
Here's today's round of auto plant closures in response to coronavirus
Fri, Mar 20 2020More 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: • 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. • 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. • Bentley is closing its factory in Crewe, England, for four weeks, effective today. • Bugatti has put its atelier in Molsheim, France, on hiatus. No date was given for when assembly of its supercars might resume. • 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.
