NO RESERVE AUCTION - BID TO WIN!!!


**Please note that the winning bidder will need to collect the Rover and complete payment between July 9-12.  I'm in Hawaii until July 8!**  

1995 Land Rover Defender 90 Soft Top #2707.  

One of only 1,190 1995 Defender 90 Soft Tops imported.  Portifino Red with Black Interior.  I have owned this truck since 2005.
Odometer reads 104,000 miles, but is off by about 20% due to gearing and tires.  Actual mileage is around 83,000.

IN EXCELLENT MECHANICAL SHAPE!  I WILL DRIVE IT TO YOU WITHIN 300 MILES!  

OFF ROAD UPGRADES DO NOT DEGRADE ON ROAD PERFORMANCE!  VEHICLE IS A PLEASURE TO DRIVE AROUND TOWN AND ON HIGHWAY/INTERSTATE!

SERIOUS HEAD TURNER - EVEN WHEN THERE ARE OTHER EXOTIC VEHICLES AROUND!



THE BAD:
*It's dented and scraped up from trails.  All of the "damage" is cosmetic.  The RH front fender is mangled thanks to my buddy Josh not looking one night up on 21 Road on his birthday. That's the worst of it, but the other panels pretty much all have dents and scratches too. Body panels are cheap for it though if you want to fix it up!  Check roversnorth.com.

*Sometimes when you're going about 40mph it gets a front end wobble, but this goes away if you accelerate or brake a little.  Only happens if you stay at some magic speed.

*If you try to speed shift it will hesitate going into second gear.  It's not a race car, and if you don't drive it like one you'll never have a problem.

*I HAVE INSTALLED NEW TURN SIGNALS, RUNNING LIGHTS, AND STOP/BRAKE LIGHTS, AS WELL AS THE RH FRONT TRIM PIECE AND HEADLIGHT HOUSING.  ALL LIGHTING WORKS PROPERLY AND IS AIMED PROPERLY. 


THE GOOD:
*Runs excellent and is a very reliable vehicle.
*I use it as a driver when I don't ride my motorcycle, so it doesn't get driven too often. 
*Many upgrades for off road use (WHICH ALSO ENHANCE ON ROAD USE ie. snow/inclement weather) including:
ARB air lockers front and rear, ARB air compressor mounted in cubby under passenger seat
4.75 Gears, Cryoed
Salisbury Semi Float rear end with Disc brakes (extremely rare) 
Heavy duty Cro-Mo front axle shafts
Rovertracks extreme duty steering parts (tie rod, drag link, track rod)
Safari Gard front three link suspension
Rovertracks lengthened Heavy Duty rear links with Heim joints
Allied Bead Locks (real bead lock wheels) with 37x12.50x15" Goodyear MTRs (set of 5, the 5th has a TSL IROK in 38x12.50x15 mounted)
Rock Ware front winch bumper with two heavy duty bow shackle mounts
Heavy Duty rear Tire Carrier (no lugs on it, I never carried a spare, just repair kit and CO2 tank)
WARN 9000 pound winch with synthetic rope
Rock Ware heavy duty rock sliders
Energizer marine deep cycle battery (I was not impressed with Optima at all)
Fully welded and reinforced roll cage
Tom Woods Custom driveshafts (propeller shafts) front and rear
Great Basin Rovers transfer case gear set for ULTRA LOW low range (a $3000 kit)
Mastercraft Safety seats with 5 point harnesses (brand new)
Tuffy lockable console with Sony CD deck and USB port
Tuffy rear speaker boxes with Infinity Marine 6x9 speakers, Kicker front marine speakers, Bazooka 10" marine subwoofer, 500W Sony x-plod amp
Tuffy lockable Toolbox
Bikini top and two soft tops (both full tops have small tears though)
Quick release mounts for the doortop windows (obviously comes with windows too!)
 Fox Racing Shocks Coilover rear suspension

This truck can go anywhere you want to take it.  You can do trails or just drive it to the beach or the mall and cruise for members of the opposite sex.  This truck gets looks from guys and girls alike!  

This truck will give anyone instant credibility.  YOU ARE NOT A POSER WHEN YOU'RE DRIVING THIS D-90!  Its the real deal!

Also good:
No cancer!  High desert truck with a small amount of surface rust ONLY!  Nothing is rusting out!
I replaced the clutch 5 years ago, and have only put a few thousand miles on it in that time.  All new disc, pressure plate, throwout bearing, and slave cylinder (genuine parts).
I put a brand new (not rebuilt) alternator in it two years ago.
It will come with a Mastercraft Safety back seat and a spare front outer axleshaft (fits either side, I bought it in case I broke one on a trail and never needed it)
All new turn signal assemblies (for all signals and tail/stop lights) and RH front trim pieces have been installed.


Auction Details:
I'm in Hawaii on vacation right now.  I will contact the winning bidder as soon as I can to touch base.  I can be reached at jacob.wilbert@gmail.com with any questions or extra picture requests.  If you really need to talk to me on the phone send me a message and I'll reply with my phone number. 

IMPORTANT:  The winning bidder will need to make arrangements to come pick the vehicle up between July 9 and July 12.  I will not be around until July 9 and will be leaving again on the evening of the 12th.  I will accept CASH, MONEY ORDER, or ELECTRONIC BANK TRANSFER.  I don't want your bank account info, we will physically go to my bank and you can talk to a banker there to do the transfer if this is how you'd like to do the deal.  I prefer EBT because you don't have to carry cash and I don't have to worry about you canceling a cashier's check.

Good luck, I hope you will give her a good home!

Here's a link to some more pictures, I'll keep adding based on anything anyone would like to see:

Land Rover knows where you're going and how you want to get there

Thu, 10 Jul 2014

Land Rover makes some of the most capable SUVs on or off the road, and some of the most luxurious too. But the British automaker isn't about to rest on those laurels - not when every other automaker assaults its territory with sport-utes of their own. That's why Land Rover has been working so hard on nifty new technologies from a depth-sounder in the door mirror of the Range Rover Sport an augmented-reality head-up display that makes the whole front of the car virtually disappear.
JLR's newest tech may not be ground-breaking, but its integration promises to make driving around town that much easier. The system syncs with the driver's smartphone and uses all manner of parameters - including driver habits, weather and location as well as the presence of other passengers - to make the commute go as smoothly as possible. Get into the car and it'll set the seat and mirrors for you. No big deal, because lots of cars do that. But it'll also set up the nav system to take you to work and the sound system to play your favorite music. Okay, getting more interesting.
Get in with your kids and it'll know not only that you've got to drop them off at school first (or remind you to pack their gym bag if they've got soccer practice after school that day) but that they might not enjoy that Chumbawamba album you've been listening to since college and it'll play something it knows you'll all enjoy based on your listening history. Then it'll switch back to Tubthumping once the kids are out, remind you of your morning meeting and alert those you're scheduled to meet with if you get stuck in traffic while finding you a better route to get there, monitoring fuel levels all the while and telling you if you'll need to tank up before you reach your destination. It knows if you like calling your mother on the drive to work and will lower the air suspension to make it easier to hop out once you get there.

Jaguar Land Rover and Chery investing in Chinese plant

Sat, 24 Nov 2012

While the European auto market for Jaguar and Land Rover is waning, Chinese car buyers can't get enough of the British marques. To meet that demand, Tata Motors, parent company of Jag and Land Rover, is partnering with Chinese automaker Chery Automobile Co.
The two announced plans to invest $1.75 billion to build a new plant and create a new, China-focused brand. 2014 is the target for completion of the factory. Jaguars and Land Rovers built at the facility will be the first ever produced outside the UK according to the Associated Press. The JV will be called Chery Jaguar Land Rover Automotive Company Ltd.
The announcement comes less than a month after JLR announced it would open a design studio in China. It's not clear from the reports whether the two announcements are part of the same JV or two separate plans.

Top Gear pits Hennessey VelociRaptor vs. Range Rover Sport SVR

Fri, Jun 5 2015

As a television series, Top Gear is in limbo with an intent to return, but no hosts yet. However, it's magazine and website continue to bring us clips like this one. While the video might lack the show's charismatic hosts, this is an opportunity to see a drag race between a Land Rover Range Rover Sport SVR with 550 horsepower and a Hennessey VelociRaptor with 623 hp. The duel between these two supercharged V8s definitely sounds great. Both rugged models start at the line growling angrily at each other like dogs ready for a fight. You have to watch the clip to see whether the more powerful VelociRaptor feeds on the SVR, though.
