1994 NAS Land Rover Defender 90

3.9 ltr. fuel injected aluminum V8 with upgraded Mallory ignition

5 speed R380 transmission

LT230 high/low transfer case with diff lock

5- 285/75/16 BF Goodrich all terrain tires with about 75% tread left

1.5” spring lift with OME shocks 

    This is a very nice, non rusty, dry climate, low mileage Defender. As you can see from the pictures, it comes with a full top as well as a bikini top and tonneau cover set up giving you several options.

    I know its hard to inspect a vehicle from an Ebay ad so I’ll try to be as thorough as possible here. It has a rebuilt title because, as I heard it, the body panels were vandalized with a claw hammer and the seats were sliced by a disgruntled ex. It was all repaired including a new body panel on the left rear of the tub, right rear of tub was repaired, bonnet (hood) was repaired, doors were both replaced with brand new, wings (front fenders) were replaced with good used ones and of course the entire truck has been repainted. The seats were replaced as well.

     It drives nice and straight on the highway and has plenty of power. It shifts good too although if you try to go from 1st to 2nd gear too fast you’ll get a slight gear meshing sound. Its fine if you don’t try to shift like you’re in a race car. I use Redline MTL transmission fluid in the transmission. The interior is real nice although there are a few cracks in the 20 year old plastic parts here and there which have been repaired. The air conditioning works great. It has 2 new a/c vents and the brake and clutch pedal pads are new. Has a CD player/radio, tuffy lock box and new waterproof marine grade speakers. The fully enclosed top is very usable although it is 20 years old and doesn’t seal around the doors all that great and has a few tiny spots that a starting to tear a bit. The soft top attaches to the tub via the improved belt rail system like on a 95 or 97 instead of the snaps that came on a 94. The rear lights and side marker lights have been upgraded to the 95/97 style as well. It has brand new front brake pads. It also has a brand new 4 pin tail light converter hooked up for trailer lights although I’ve never actually towed with it.  It's not a perfect D90, but it is really really nice.

    Feel free to ask more questions if there’s anything I haven't addressed here. I encourage and welcome you to come inspect the truck in person if you are able to. I'll be happy to coordinate my schedule to meet any vehicle transport servicer that you arrange to pick up the vehicle if needed.

Jaguar Land Rover mulling factory in Georgia?

Sat, Feb 7 2015

London's Sunday Times reported last October that Jaguar-Land Rover was sniffing around The South looking for a potential manufacturing site, and was "talking to several southern states." We imagine Georgia was one of them; The Peach State has Kia Motors Manufacturing in West Point, it claims Porsche HQ as a resident, and soon the Mercedes-Benz regional office, too. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution has said that Governor Nathan Deal recently took the initiative to fly to the UK to "make prospect calls" with JLR executives about a deal. We don't have any details about the calls, but we'll guess that they involved Deal making a financial case for GA over other states while sipping a cup of tea. It's said that the English luxury maker wants to build a factory here with a 200,000-unit capacity, to take advantage of the same financial efficiencies that have planted other automakers in the US and Mexico; it opened a facility in China last year to build the Range Rover Evoque, Land Rover Discovery Sport, and the Jaguar XE, and is casting eyes over Brazilian and Saudi Arabian soil for other facilities. No timetable has been given for a decision.

Land Rover Defender V8 vs. Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 | V8 4x4s square off on paper

Thu, Feb 25 2021

Land 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 Land Rover offers (some) detail about new Ingenium engine

Thu, 10 Jul 2014

Jaguar Land Rover officially announced its Ingenium family of engines with the unveiling of the 2.0-liter version in the Jaguar XE concept at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, but it kept details very thin at the time. All we knew was that the new turbocharged mills could be configured to use gasoline or diesel, and be positioned longitudinally or transversely. Months later, JLR is finally letting some more info slip about its new baby, but there are still some big questions to be answered.
For the Ingenium project, Jaguar Land Rover gave its engineers a clean sheet of paper and told them not to worry about using any previous parts or machinery. In the end, the designers came up with a family of turbocharged, aluminum-block engines based around modular, 500cc cylinders to allow it to grow or shrink as the market demanded. The layout was also made adaptable enough to incorporate hybrid drivetrains, if needed. "Being configurable and flexible are the two key strands of Ingenium's DNA because we have future-proofed our new engines from the outset," said said Ron Lee, the company's director of Powertrain Engineering.
To maximize efficiency, Jaguar promises that all versions of the Ingenium engines come with computer-controlled, variable oil pumps and water pumps to use only as much energy as needed. They also get direct injection, roller bearings for the cams and stop/start. The diesel version alone has 17 percent less internal friction than the mill it replaces, the company claims. JLR is also promising class-leading figures for Ingenium's torque and horsepower too, but it's not giving away those specs just yet.
