Defender D-90's Custom Refurbished to order!!!

The Build & Spec:

Here we have for sale a 1986 Defender 90 Station Wagon factory LHD powered by the 2.5 Gasoline engine. This Defender is based in our UK showroom and available for immediate shipment.

The very first stage of this Defender 90 build involved us working tirelessly through the working parts and structure of the vehicle looking for faults and worn components; replacing and refurbishing as we go. Anything we found to be faulty - we either fixed or replaced - simple!. We ensure that all of our vehicle and its parts are either new or as good as new (including all steering, braking and suspension components). The engines have a full major service including a timing belt change.  This vehicle is then extensively road-tested. All of our 90's come to you fully warrantied against mechanical, hydraulic and electrical breakdown or failure.  Your enjoyment and safety are guaranteed.  Our after sales service is second to none and we are here to support you wherever you are in the world.

Following our extensive mechanical preparation we then treat the corrosion free chassis to a full and intensive coating of WaxOyl to protect it from any future corrosion.

With this high level of structural, mechanical and electrical satisfaction achieved the vehicle is then handed over to our paint team to prepare, paint and polish inside and out to its as new finish in a colour chosen by yourself.

The work that goes into our vehicles is extraordinary. It really is not your typical re-spray. This is a full unique customisation to the highest possible standards. Book yourself a flight- come on over and see for yourselves. It is eye-catching - breathtaking and above all its authentic. All three doors are corrosion free. Our paint process takes approximately two weeks and this included for the mirror finish that the pictures - as good as they are - do not show!! Upon leaving the body shop the vehicle has a brand new windscreen and rubber seal fitted and at the same time new door rubbers, window seals, alpine light seals and rear load area windows are all installed.

The interior floor surfaces are then newly carpeted in a classic black finish, the headlining is brand new and in grey cloth, the seating is hand made to order and finished in fine black half leather with a fine white stitch. All of the seat belts are replaced for new. We also add a Sony CD stereo with up-rated audio speakers equipped to take an Ipod/Iphone.

The D-90 model can carry six passengers, of all ages, in various combinations with room left over on the roof or in the rear load area for luggage. What better a way to transport yourselves around than in this awesome Land Rovers UK built machine. There is no component overlooked, untested or disregarded. At LRUK we take our American specified Defenders to an incomparable level.

You will find that the Defender cruises along very well on its 16” Challenger Wheels fitted with market leading General Grabber tyres. We also equip our Defenders with a swing away spare wheel carrier to remove the strain upon the lower section of the back door and to make rear door opening that bit easier.

All lighting is replaced with new and the vehicle is then subject to an independent UK MOT (an annual test in the UK in which vehicles are tested on automobile safety and roadworthiness). If you wish for additional lighting to be added please look through our available extras and choose the best package to suit your needs.

Jaguar Land Rover creates new Special Operations division for halo vehicles, bespoke commissions

Fri, 13 Jun 2014

Jaguar Land Rover has announced that a new division of the British manufacturer will be dedicated to "bespoke commissions," as well as heritage products and apparel. Oh, and the new Special Operations division will also be behind JLR's halo cars from now on.
It's that last one that is the most tantalizing, as the last real halo product to see production from Jaguar was the XJ220. The Range Rover, meanwhile, has always had its own kind of halo reputation, although the Land Rover brand itself has never really gotten into the game with a dedicated model.
According to JLR, the new halo models will focus on ultra-high performance and luxury with a limited run of vehicles. The bespoke models, meanwhile, will give the wealthiest customers full sway over how vehicles are outfitted, with unique paints, trims and other accessories. The new SpecOps division will be run by John Edwards.

Jaguar Land Rover remains bullish on diesels

Wed, Sep 30 2015

Despite Volkswagen's recent diesel scandal, Jaguar Land Rover is pushing ahead with ambitious plans to roll out the technology across most of its lineup in the coming years. Jaguar and Land Rover will add diesel engine variants to every model in their lineups, except for the Jaguar F-Type sports car. Land Rover launched the Range Rover and Range Rover Sport with available 3.0-liter turbocharged V6 diesels, and together they have sold more than 330 units so far in September, their first month on sale in the United States. JLA officials say they've seen no fallout from VW's emissions problem and are adamant their diesels meet EPA standards. "That has been our strategy, and it is not changing," Joe Eberhardt, Jaguar Land Rover North America CEO, told the Automotive Press Association on Wednesday in Detroit. "You have to deal with the situations as they arrive. We are confident of diesel." Jaguar will get another diesel next year from its Ingenium engine family, which will initially be sold in the XE sedan and the F-Pace crossover. It's a turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder unit and makes 180 horsepower and 317 pound-feet of torque. A JLR spokesman said the Ingenium has not yet gone through the EPA certification process, and the diesel-powered models will arrive in the fall. Jaguar also plans to add diesel engines to the flagship XJ and XF sedans. Land Rovers, including the Discovery and Evoque, will also get diesel options, and the company estimates the technology will offer 20- to 30-percent improvements in fuel economy, depending on the vehicle. Eberhardt said it is "too soon to tell" if the diesel market will be weighed down by Volkswagen's situation. The German automaker admitted to cheating on emissions tests to make its diesel-powered cars appear to run cleaner than they actually do in real-world situations. The ensuing outrage forced longtime VW chief executive Martin Winterkorn to step down and prompted a reorganization of the company, which faces legal and regulatory action around the world. Still, Eberhardt maintains JLR is "very confident" in its diesels, which are part of its strategy to grow sales around the world. Land Rover has experienced rapid growth under the ownership of Indian conglomerate, Tata Motors, while Jaguar is set to revitalize its lineup with new entries like the XE and F-Pace to reach a broader market segment.

JLR shares backstage 'No Time to Die' Range Rover Sport SVR carnage

Sat, Sep 18 2021

James Bond's latest adventures will take him to Norway and Scotland, as seen in the trailer for the upcoming "No Time to Die." Somewhere along the way, the British spy encounters a pair of Range Rover Sport SVRs, the ultimate high-performance SUV from JLR's Special Vehicle Operations division in one of the movie's centerpiece car chases. Now, the company has given us a behind-the-scenes look at its filming, and the automotive carnage that ensues. The filmmakers wanted to take a Bond action sequence off-road, and chose the Range Rover Sport SVR as the the bad guys' pursuit vehicle. Armed with a JLR product placement deal (Bond drives a new Defender in another part of the movie) the henchmen had no qualms picking one of the most expensive things on the menu. Unfortunately, that also makes is a bit hard to watch when machines that start at $115,000 are totaled as they careen through the air or roll onto their roofs. The SVRs share a 5.0-liter supercharged V8 with the Jaguar F-Type SVR and are the most powerful vehicles in the Land Rover portfolio. With 575 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque on tap, translating to a 0-60 time of 4.3 seconds, they're the perfect weapon for chasing a super-spy down a dirt road. As for Bond himself, 007 makes his escape in a decades-old yellow Toyota Land Cruiser Prado. Specifically, it's a 90-series, a smaller version built from 1996 to 2002 that was never sold in the U.S. but remains popular in other parts of the world. The most powerful engine had just 190 horsepower from a 3.4 liter V6 shared with the similar-era 4Runner. Despite the power discrepancy, Bond manages to dispatch the Range Rovers in spectacular fashion. Wait, this is a Range Rover promo, right? "All the stunts are for real, there's nothing that's CGI'ed," said Neil Layton, the film's action vehicle coordinator. "So to make the cars more dramatic on the screen, we had to turn off a lot of safety feature aids that's on there." Interestingly, another non-JLR product shows up in the video as well. The camera car is a blacked out (to minimize reflection in other cars) Ford F-150 Raptor outfitted with a massive rooftop boom. "No Time to Die" is hits the screens on October 8.
