1995 North American Specification (NAS) Land Rover Defender 90
 
This Black/Black NAS D90 is a rare find!  It's one of only 1190 Soft Tops made in 1995 for the US market - '95 being the lowest production run of the three years (94,95, and 97) NAS D90s - and the Black Defenders seem to be the toughest color to find.  It's got some nice options/upgrades such as the diamond plate wingtops and sills, safari rack with ladder, step bumper with class iii hitch, rear flip and fold forward facing bench seat, upgraded stereo and speakers, Land Rover fiberglass removable hardtop, Land Rover rubber mats, tinted windows, and more.  So let's move to condition:
 
Outside:  As you can see from the photos, this Defender has typical imperfections consistent with age/miles but overall it's really a great looking truck.  I've included detailed photos of all panels so you can see the chips, nicks, dings, etc.  More close-ups can be emailed if you need them.  It appears 90% of the paint is original judging by the slight "checking" of the paint on tops of the panels.  Only the left rear quarter doesn't have that trait, so we believe that was repainted at some point over the last 19 years.  This is of particular interest because this Defender has salvage history (we've researched and understand it was a clerical error, but haven't been able to verify either way) but it's obvious to us it's never been hit.  There have been chip touch-ups of course, and it looks like the bumpers were painted to keep them looking fresh, but over all a very original example.  The upgrades like diamond plate wingtops/sills and safari rack really make this Defender look aggressive... definitely a head turner!
 
Inside:  The inside of this D90 is in good condition.  It has Land Rover rubber mats that are fairly new, and the floors underneath are clean and appear rust free.  There are seat covers protecting the front seats and the rear flip forward bench seat.  There's wear and a split on the original driver seat, but the outer covers are in great shape.  The dash is in good shape, as are the door panels.  Few flaws are the driver door pocket is missing, shift knob is a bit loose, trim around the glove box handle is cracked, and the right skylight is missing.  The prior owner upgraded the factory sound system to a Pioneer radio and MTX speakers that sound good along with some LED floorboard lighting that helps you see things inside at night.
 
Mechanical:  You read the mileage correctly - 151,000 miles and counting.  A testament to how durable these Defenders are.  It also helps show why they've become so collectible.  If you're not familiar with Defenders you should know to be wary of "low miles" rigs as they've often had odometer tampering or replacement.  There's many ways to tell... but you don't have to suspect that with this one (obviously)!  This D-90 is fairly stock and hasn't been heavily modified.  It runs and drives great.  The 5 speed transmission shifts well up/down gears, the clutch feels tight, and the transfer case hi & low (plus center locking differential) all seem to work well - although I haven't tested it off road.  The brakes are good with no pull, and this Landy tracks straight going down the road.  It has a fairly new NRP stainless steel exhaust system, battery, and other misc services done.  Tread is 50% and the tires are a bit dry rotted... but we will put NEW tires on if the Buy Now option is used.  There's a slight oil leak that looks like it's at the filter, but over all it's a very tight Defender that you'll be able to drive and enjoy for many years to come.
 
 
In closing, I've tried to provide an honest forthright description of this Defender, but please remember it's nearly 20 years old and I am not an expert on these.  I invite all interested buyers to inspect this Defender or I can drop it off at Land Rover for you to have a pre-purchase inspection done.  If you have any questions or need additional photos, please email and I'll get back to you ASAP.

Jaguar Land Rover details JustDrive connectivity suite

Tue, 18 Nov 2014



JustDrive will allegedly deliver on the long-promised idea of natural communication between driver and car.
Jaguar Land Rover's all-new InControl system is set to get a big bump as the British company will add a new service called JustDrive, which expands on the smartphone-focused infotainment system by adding a singular voice controller for a wide array of the system's currently available apps.

All-electric Jaguar XJ coming soon on platform shared with 'Road Rover'

Mon, Jun 24 2019

We've been posting on the likelihood of electric Jaguars for a while now, especially the XJ leading the charge as a new EV flagship. Rumors at the beginning of 2018 predicted an XJ EV on our doorstep by the end of 2018, the 50th anniversary year of the XJ. By April this year, it was looking like the battery-powered XJ would use the I-Pace platform and make an appearance sometime in 2019. Now, Automotive News Europe reports that during Jaguar Land Rover's Investor's Day presentations, the automaker said it would debut a "large SUV and a large premium sedan" on its Modular Longitudinal Architecture (MLA) suitable for EVs, hybrids and traditional ICE-powered cars. The sedan in question is the next-gen XJ. Nick Rogers, JLR's product engineering boss, said electric MLA vehicles will get 90.2-kWh batteries that return range of up to 400 kilometers (292 miles) on the European cycle. That would effectively be the same size battery as the I-Pace, which rides on its own one-off platform, and the same range; in the U.S., the I-Pace is rated at 234 miles. It's said the XJ's design, produced by former Jaguar design chief Ian Callum and his team, has already been cleared. It swaps the four-door body for a five-door, a la the Audi A7, and introduces a new design language for the car and the carmaker. Car and Driver says the new statement sedan aims to be "a cutting-edge alternative to the BMW 7 Series and Mercedes-Benz S-Class," and Autocar saying it will "remain Jaguar's flagship in preference to a large SUV, such as the rumored J-Pace." The point of introducing the EV first is to establish the car's technology and sporting credentials — hopefully before the Porsche Taycan and Audi E-Tron GT arrive. Eventually, an ICE version of the XJ powered by an Ingenium inline-six should come; that will welcome buyers not ready to make the all-EV switch, a necessary move in keeping with the XJ's competition for global sales with the S-Class and 7 Series. However, leaving room in the design for a conventional drivetrain will force compromises that the all-electric competition doesn't face. Production of the current XJ ends at the Castle Bromwich facility on July 5. The new sedan is slated to be "announced in the near future" and built at JLR's plant in Solihull, which assembles Land Rover products. The same MLA platform will support a road-focused Land Rover as a sibling to the XJ, dubbed the "Road Rover" internally.

10 most memorable cars and SUVs of 2019

Tue, Dec 24 2019

It's no surprise that a car reviewer will drive a large number of cars over the course of a year. Indeed, when the clock strikes midnight on Dec 31, I will have driven 75 new cars, trucks and SUV this year (and one old Peugeot) over the course of weekly evaluation loans and first drive events. That sure seems like a lot. Some definitely got more attention than others, and some came and went without leaving much of an impression – I completely forgot I drove a Kia Forte. Yet in the spirit of this day, I thought I'd pick the 10 that I would love to see under the Christmas tree tomorrow morning. You know, just in case you were looking to get me something. I'll also throw in a couple disappointments that were memorable for the wrong reasons. They'd get sent back to the store on Boxing Day. Lexus LC 500 Pictured below and resplendent in its Flare Yellow metallic paint, the car that would reach highest on my list is the divine Lexus LC 500. As a devout lover of GT cars, the LC ticks all the boxes. Muscular and characterful engine? V8, check. Beautifully made and memorable interior? It's gorgeous, to hell with Remote Touch. Check. Comfortable and reasonably practical? Superb seats and, uh, yeah. Makes me want to stand there and stare at it? You bet. Though I long figured my heart would say LC but my head "Porsche 911," after this go-around, that's no longer the case. LC, pretty please. 2020-lexus-lc500-f34-2 View 19 Photos Polestar 1 I actually feel lucky that I got to drive the Polestar 1. Only 150 will be produced each year, and it's a far more special thing than it would initially appear. And that's despite initially appearing to be a beautiful, classic two-door GT car with a roof so rakish it's only possible because it's made of carbon fiber. That itÂ’s a massively powerful plug-in hybrid with more all-electric range than any other PHEV is a thick dollop of whipped cream on a slice of Toscakaka. You know, Swedish dessert, Swedish car. Fine, I'll stick to Ikea references.  Polestar1_Launch_SanFrancisco-0014 View 44 Photos Volvo V60 Cross Country Speaking of Sweden, did I drive this car off the road there? Sure did! And despite this, the V60 Cross Country scratches that certain wagon itch and looks sensational to boot. I wish it were available with the T8 plug-in hybrid powertrain, but it's best not to get greedy at Christmas.
