Rare 1994 NAS Land Rover Defender 90 Soft Top
Purchased this 1994 Defender 90, #902 in May 2001 in Salt Lake City with 41,670 miles. Over the last 15 years,
usage has been light as today there are only 80,267 miles. It has been used as a "mountain town convertible,"
driven primarily in the summer and almost exclusively on paved and gravel roads. The vehicle has been serviced as
needed by the same mechanic over the last 15 years. The Land Rover is in excellent condition for a 22-year-old
vehicle and runs very well. The Defender has been stored in a garage and sports a five-speed manual transmission,
high/low four wheel drive, waterproof seats, roll cage, rear lamp cages, receiver hitch, and is really fun to
drive. Major maintenance over the last several years has included: new rear shocks in 2007, new Firestone
Destination A/T LT 265/75R16 tires at 63,348 miles, front brakes in 2011, fuel pump in 2013, fuel temp sensor and
ignition module in 2014 and, just recently, a new starter, crank sensor, and plugs. While it runs great, of late
it has exhibited a reluctance to start on occasion; this has been the source of the recent work. It has been
thoroughly inspected, and my experience is if it does not start, let it sit a bit and try again. In the last 37
attempts to start since the recent work, it has started 35 times. It runs great. A Sony AM/FM/Cassette Player is
located in the center console that also offers storage and drink holders.
The Defender carries a clean Carfax Report with no reported bodywork. Under my ownership the Defender is accident
free, all original parts other than maintenance described above and has never been smoked in. The Land Rover
Defender 90 is a bona fide icon, only imported into the US from 1994 until 1997, and now production in Europe has
ended. A true collectors item.
Owners notes:
The seat back adjustment levers have never worked well as long as I have owned the Defender. The forward back
adjustments work fine.
The dashboard gauge lights are very dim and can be hard to see instruments at night; the gauge brightness
adjustment does not work and never has.
The plastic casing on the rear seat seat belt receptors are cracked and taped together (see photo) but are
functional.
The body is in excellent condition; there is a small dent in front of the passenger door (see photo) and a few
scratches.
The label sticker for the airflow control, hot/cold, floor/defrost is missing (see photo).
There is some rust on the driver and passenger door hinges and spare tire carrier; it does not impede their
function (see photo).
There is also some rust under the driver floor mat (see photo).
The Defender burns a quart of oil regularly and drips a bit (fairly typical).
The soft top is the original and was left off most summers (vehicle was kept in a garage). It is very difficult to
attach all the snaps (I usually do not), and there are tears in two of the plastic windows that are taped (see
photos).
The rubber mat in the rear cargo area was replaced a couple of years ago, but has developed a tear at the right
wheel well (see photo).
Floor mats are new a couple years back.
Other:
A receiver hitch mounted bike rack is available if the buyer would like it. It was a special order bike rack to
accommodate clearing the spare tire. It has been well used and is included free with the Defender.

Second 'No Time To Die' trailer drops with lots of crunching metal
Thu, Sep 3 2020The second trailer for the new James Bond film, "No Time To Die," was posted to social media Thursday morning, getting us thoroughly hyped for the forthcoming installment thanks to some spicy car content and lots of other ridiculous, big-budget action sequences. Fair warning for the purists: This might contain plot- and character-related information from the trailer itself. Also, it appears that many Land Rover Defenders died in the making of this film, so the footage may not be for the faint of heart; don't say we didn't give you advance notice. As is typical of Bond films, most of the automotive eye candy is of the European variety. The classic Aston Martin DB5 gadget car (which we saw doing some crazy machine-gun donuts in the first trailer) makes yet another appearance, as does what appears to be fourth-generation Maserati Quattroporte. There's even something which might be a car, but also appears to be both some sort of airplane and submersible. Never change, Bond. We love it. And then there are the Defenders. We've got Defenders speeding down hillsides, Defenders crashing through forests, Defenders flying over Land Cruisers. Yeah, do you like Land Cruisers? There's a Land Cruiser. It even (spoiler alert!) survives relatively unscathed; the same cannot be said for most of the automotive shenanigans we get to see here. "No Time To Die" was originally slated to debut back in April, but its original release date roughly coincided with the projected peak of early coronavirus infections. Given how important the Bond film franchise's continued success is to MGM (it's virtually the only thing the studio has had going for it for 30 years) and the producers (who only make Bond films), meager box office returns were not an option. The last film, Spectre, pulled in the worldwide gross of $880 million, including $200 million in the United States and $83.5 million in China. The wait is almost over. "No Time to Die" will hit theaters Nov. 25 in the United States. Related Video:
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
Jaguar Land Rover won't get a bailout from the UK
Sun, Aug 16 2020Bailout talks between Jaguar Land Rover and Tata Steel with the UK government have ended, leaving both firms to rely on private financing to overcome the impact of coronavirus on business, the Financial Times reported on Friday. The report said that talks for an emergency funding fell through as Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) did not qualify for taxpayer support. It is the luxury car unit of India's Tata Motors and Tata Steel, both owned by Indian conglomerate Tata Group. The bailout plan, titled "Project Birch", had been authorized by Finance Minister Rishi Sunak in May to rescue companies that are seen as strategically important, with the Treasury saying it may step in to support crucial businesses on a "last resort" basis after other options run out. The report, citing a source familiar with the matter, said that the funding scheme became infeasible for Tata as it imposed strict conditions on any lending. "Tata Steel remains in ongoing and constructive talks with the UK Government on areas of potential support," Tata Steel said in an emailed statement. The UK Treasury said it would not comment on individual companies. Tata Motors did not immediately respond to request for comment. Related Video: Earnings/Financials Government/Legal Jaguar Land Rover
