Defender to make it my project for the US market, it was already in a very good
shape. The previous owner took real good care of her, which was clearly visible
and that’s what convinced me to buy her. The paintwork was in good order, the interior
was beautiful, the engine and gearbox running nicely. Lots of receipts came
with her so I knew he wasn’t hesitating to invest in her. I decided to rebuild
the engine even though it was running excellent. I did it lots of times and it
is way cheaper for me to do it and letting it be done in the US. So I can
guarantee that this engine will run for miles and miles. I put a roof rack on her,
cleaned and wax oiled the chassis and did lots of other things listed below to give
the future buyer a good start on his Land Rover Experience:
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 is was 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, timing belt new, full length new exhaust 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. It was been repainted five
years ago. Of course you can see here and there that it isn’t new, some
scratches and age marks. But for a 26 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 windscreen has
some wiper scratches on the passenger side. Note that this is a classic vehicle
so there are marks of age, not many though! The Defender has
a tow bar with electrics. Also an air intake snorkel is mounted if you need to
go through deep water. The heavy duty roof rack makes it look complete. The Chassis The complete
chassis is in perfect condition. 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. The chassis number or VIN is clearly visible
and authentic. The VIN is: SALLDHMV7EA331748
The Interior The inside of
the vehicle is clean, tidy and as good as new. The 9 seats are finished in black
half leather. There is a multimedia device installed with LCD screen which pops
out when switched on. The tires The Defender has
got 4 good all terrain tires and a brand new spare. It’s to be advised that if
you are going to use the truck only on normal roads, to put normal road tires
on it. If going to be used primarily on dirt roads or off road, put off-roaders
under 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. Send an email for quotes. Deposit We require a deposit of $500, - within 24 hours after the end of auction.

the quality of the LRD110 I purchased from you off EBay. I have
now used the truck for 6 months with trouble-free service. I have
had a few repairs done by two separate LRD specialists (one near each of my
houses) both of whom have heavily praised the truck's condition given
its age. I have purchased two vehicles off of EBay - and I'm sure you
guys know that it can be risky. Thanks for being so diligent in finding
this clean original specimen! The experience has been "just
what I wanted". Best regards, j.d. (To verify, check my EBay feedback of August 16th 2013)
Land Rover Defender 110s, especially classic years
like 1987, are rare finds. To find one so well prepared and to work with
a guy like Daniel van Oort who helped every step of the way and went way beyond
our expectations even past delivery is AMAZING. I had such a great
experience with Daniel. He kept me always informed of the process as our
beautiful “Ms Red” made it through customs in Baltimore. He coordinated
everything perfectly. As with all classic vehicles > 25 years old,
there can always be subtle issues at first. There were a few, like a
small dent in the bumper which occurred somewhere in shipping to the US.
Daniel wasted no time negotiating these minor problems. He just
dropped a new bumper in the post at his cost and several other spare parts or
small items after that. Daniel knew I was a new LR owner and had much to
learn. He never hesitated to send me advice and support. He
quickly returned every email, was available from 1/2 way around the world when
I was going through the tag & title process in Texas to make sure I had all
the documentation.
I would completely recommend Daniel and his
organization for future purchases and, in fact, I have been circulating his
name among Land Rover clubs and social media that I participate in. He’s
a top notch seller and there’s nothing I would change about our experience.
My family and I have already created lots of great memories in our Land
Rover Defender 110 and the candy-apple red color is a head turner!! We
always get lots of compliments from other Land Rover classic owners who really
know their stuff. They are also impressed with my experiences, the value
and services I received from Daniel.
Thanks Daniel. Many more memories to come and my
wife now wants a Land Rover Defender of her own….so will be in touch soon.

Child cobalt miners: Automakers pledge ethical minerals sourcing for EVs
Wed, Nov 29 2017BERLIN - 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
2019 Mercedes-Benz G-Class vs big luxury off-roaders: How they compare on paper
Mon, May 7 2018During our first drive of the 2019 Mercedes-Benz G-Class, the all-new SUV's product manager was asked to identify competitors that might have been benchmarked in its development. The look on his face was about the same as if someone had asked him to recite King Lear in Klingon. As far as Andreas Hoeppel was concerned, the G 550 and AMG G 63 doesn't actually have a rival, or at least something the engineers and designers thought to compare it against. The G-Class is a G-Class, who cares what the other guys are doing? Well, in case you care, we figured we'd plug the new G-Class' specs into the old Autoblog Comparo Generator 3000 (TM) to see how the G 550 and AMG G 63 compare to the Range Rover and its mightiest SVAutobiography Dynamic model, plus the Lexus LX 570 and Bentley Bentayga V8. Frankly, Heir Hoeppel was onto something as each of these is wildly different. But, they do share some common elements: giant size and weight, ultra-lux interiors, and far more off-roading capability than other luxury SUVs offer and any of its owners are likely to ever utilize. Sad. So enjoy this trip down specification lane, and if you're still left hungry, you can always check out our Range Rover comparison or create your very own comparo. Off-Road Clearances and Capability All the fancy off-roading software and special cameras in the world won't do you a lick of good if your SUV is too close to the ground or has low-hanging body work that'll get easily ripped off. As such, check out each of these uber-SUV's ground clearance, approach and departure angles, and wading/fording depths. In this case, the Range Rover has an advantage due to its air suspension that can raise itself into an Off-Roading height that's a whopping 2 inches higher than the new G-Wagen. Sadly for itself, Lexus only provides figures for its air suspension when in normal height. It could match or surpass the Range Rover for all we know (but doubt it). As Land Rover does provide figures for the Range Rover's approach and departure angles in normal and Off-Road height, you can get an idea of just how much clearance the new G-Wagen has without any fancy (and expensive to fix) raising and lowering air suspension hardware. In fact, its departure angle is better than even the Range Rover's Off-Road height. Bentley doesn't provide any such information despite touting the Bentayga's surprising off-roading talents.
This Ford F-150 might have a Land Rover turbodiesel V6
Thu, Dec 17 2015Our spy photographers just caught this Ford F-150 driving around Dearborn, wearing camouflage around the bed – not so unusual near Ford's headquarters. What's interesting with this particular mule is that it might be packing a Jaguar-Land Rover turbodiesel V6. As with the Super Duty, the F-150 prototype pictured here sports a Venturi exhaust tip popping out the side of the rear bumper behind the wheel, which – along with the sound reported by our shutterbug – suggests that it's burning oil up front. That could mean Ford has found another application for the 3.2-liter, five-cylinder Power Stroke diesel that it just federalized for the Transit van. However our sources suggest what the mule is actually powered by the 3.0-liter Lion V6 diesel that Jaguar Land Rover – once subsidiaries in Ford's Premier Automotive Group – is bringing over for the Td6 models of the Range Rover and Range Rover Sport. The engine produces a respectable 254 horsepower and a healthy 443 pound-feet of torque, and is tipped to be mated to the same ten-speed automatic transmission as the new Raptor. That could give the F-150 the kind of fuel economy and muscle it would need to challenge the likes of the Ram 1500 EcoDiesel and the heavier-duty Nissan Titan with the Cummins engine. With gas prices as low as they are, however, and sales of diesel-powered vehicles lagging, Ford could just be trying to keep up with the competition by offering a light-duty diesel pickup. With its lightweight aluminum body, the diesel F-150 could even surpass the Duramax diesel-powered Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon for frugality at the pumps, according to Mark Williams of PickupTrucks.com. He told Autoblog that, "it makes perfect sense for Ford to do a diesel. It seems like everyone is pushing them to do a Ranger, but if they can get the F-150 to push 30 mpg it can challenge the Ram Ecodiesel and even the Colorado Duramax." Reached for comment, Ford spokesman Mike Levine sent us the following statement: "We do not speculate about future products. While diesel is a solution, it is not the solution. EcoBoost offers the ideal combination of performance and fuel economy that over 60 percent of F-150 customers are choosing."
