Our business sources and customizes Defender D-90 and D-110 for Clients in all areas of the world.  Different Clients have different needs and different global regions have different rules for importation of used vehicles.

 

If you live in the USA or Canada then you are in a very unique position.

 

Defender production and supply was limited, to two very small windows of time, in the USA as a consequence there are very few good quality NAS (North American Specification) Defenders available.

 

SO what are your options:

BUY NEW ?

Impossible

BUY USED NAS SPEC?

Possible but you are likely to pay a high price for a low quality vehicle

 BUY USED GRAY IMPORT?

Is it legal?

DESIGN AND BUILD A CUSTOM DEFENDER?

Read on.....

 

This specific advert is for one of our award-winning 25 year old left-hand-drive Defender D110s. We are one of the only completely trusted exporters of the Defender into the US and Canada we do it quickly, we do it legally, and we do it very, very well.

 

We build every Defender we buy to the highest standard that you will be able to see in a 15 or 25 year-old vehicle (the minimum age for export to Canada and the US, respectively). However, the part of our business we are most proud of, and the part our customers are always most excited about and involved in, is our extensive custom build program. This is where we can design your Defender to your specifications.

 

In short: we will build your Defender exactly how you want it* 
It’s what we do. All day, Every day.

 

Here’s how our process works:

1)  You design your Land Rover Defender 110 down to the smallest detail on our website, or by giving us a call; our US toll-free number is 

 

1-800-984-3355.

 

We advise and assist in any way we can, talking you through any doubts you may have about quality or export.

 

You place an order with us.

2) We select you (or you choose) a vehicle from our extensive stock of petrol and diesel engine left hand drive station wagons. We carefully source the best available Defenders from dry climates; our fantastic buying team is always on the move and on the hunt for prime examples of 15- and 25-year-old Defenders on solid corrosion-free chassis, turning down anything short of the best.

3)  Your D110 begins its rebuild process. The Workshop Team strips it down to its bare structure, and goes over every inch of the vehicle in a logical and investigative / procedural manner, only passing it in to our Body Shop when it’s in tip-top mechanical and structural condition.

4) Your Defender D110 leaves the Body Shop with exactly the color and finish (matte, satin, gloss) you want – and it will look like new. The vehicle then moves to our Trim Shop, where a huge rebuild takes place from the ground up. Your specified accessories, tires, wheels, and interior finish are fitted. After a thorough clean and WaxOyl treatment, your Land Rover Defender D90 is complete.

5) By now you are eager to have your LRUK Custom Land Rover on your drive. You have long been receiving regular updates and pictures of your D110 throughout the build process. We organize the exportation of your finished custom-built vehicle. We have people every step of the way making sure things are done carefully and correctly.

6) Your Land Rover D110, built-to-order by Land Rovers UK, lands at your nearest port and you finally get to drive the Defender of your dreams home.

 

Every single one of our customers is a happy one. Look us up online – ‘Land Rovers UK Ltd’ – and read our testimonials. One thing our customers have in common is that they are all so heavily involved in the design and custom build process – you don’t place your order and a Defender turns up on your drive 10 weeks later. You’re involved every step of the way with our team.

 

It would be a gross understatement to say that our 20+ team of expert technicians know these machines like the backs of their hands. So take a plane, a train, or an automobile (many take all three!) to our premises in Somerset, South West England, and see first-hand the kind of experience and expertise our team possesses. Bring your family, bring your friends – we are always extremely pleased to welcome customers inside to see our beautiful Custom Defenders, of which we are immensely proud.

Watch feds crush classic Mini caught in importation dragnet

Fri, Dec 12 2014

Fair warning for any classic car fans that suffer from high blood pressure: this story might not be good for your health. US Customs and Border Protection is teaming up with British law enforcement to keep unsafe, imported vehicles off the road here – like this Mini. In the government's view, the only way to make things right is to crush the cars, apparently. The destruction is part of Operation Atlantic, a crackdown on Minis and Land Rover Defenders that are being illegally imported. According to Yahoo Autos, this is just one of about 100 vehicles from the dragnet. This specific car came into the US in June, and its VIN indicated a model from 1988. However, the vehicle had a different engine than it should have, and the steering wheel was on the wrong side. It was likely actually from around 2000. To emphasize the crackdown, government officials and press gathered at a New Jersey junkyard to destroy the car. Check out the video below to watch the carnage and listen to the horrible crunching noises, and read the sad press release below. This content is hosted by a third party.

Trans-Atlantic Partnership Seeks to Crush Illegal Trade of Unsafe Vehicles NEWARK, New Jersey-U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) destroyed an illegally imported and unsafe Mini Cooper Thursday at a salvage yard in New Jersey following a recent seizure at the Newark Seaport. CBP captured photos, b-roll and principal sound bites for use by news media. This Mini is just one of dozens of vehicles intercepted at ports of entry across the U.S, including ports in Baltimore, Philadelphia, Norfolk, Virginia, Charleston, South Carolina, Savannah, Georgia, Jacksonville, Florida, Houston and Tacoma, Washington. Over the past year, CBP has increased targeting and inspections of suspect imported vehicles, specifically Minis and Land Rover Defenders, as part of Operation Atlantic, a new trans-Atlantic partnership between U.S. and U.K. regulatory and law enforcement officials. "Intercepting illegal and unsafe imports is a top priority for CBP," said Brenda Smith, CBP's assistant commissioner for International Trade. "Through Operation Atlantic, we are stopping illegally imported, unsafe vehicles from driving on our roadways, and at the same time, partnering with our colleagues in the UK to stop this criminal activity at its source." Launched in March 2014 by CBP's Commercial Targeting and Analysis Center (CTAC), U.S.

New Land Rover Defender aces Euro crash tests

Wed, Dec 9 2020

While the 2020 Land Rover Defender has not yet been crash-test by U.S. safety agencies such as NHTSA or IIHS, we do now have results for Europe's NCAP crash tests and accident-avoidance tests, where the Defender earned the top rating of five stars. The Defender model used for NCAP testing was the 110 variant with right-hand drive. The NCAP regimen includes several different crash tests: an offset front crash test into a moveable barrier with both the vehicle and the barrier traveling at 50 km/hr (31 mph), a front crash test into a full-width fixed barrier at 50 km/hr (31 mph), a side-impact crash test with a barrier traveling at 60 km/hr (37 mph) hitting the driver's door, and a side-impact test where the car strikes a pole at 32 km/hr (20 mph). The Defender's scores for the adult occupant and for a child occupant were both 85%. Additionally, the agency looks at the severity of injuries of the vehicle striking a pedestrian, taking data for a pedestrian's head hitting the hood, and their upper and lower leg being hit by the front of the vehicle. There is also testing of the vehicle's automatic emergency braking system's ability to avoiding hitting a pedestrian and a cyclist under various scenarios. The efficacy of active-safety systems for avoiding collisions with other vehicles is also tested. The Defender's score for protecting pedestrians and cyclists was 71%. The driver assists scored 79%. Results for several European-market cars were released together with those for the Defender, the most noteworthy of which was for the Honda E. The electric city car fared less well than the big Land Rover, garnering a score of four stars overall. In the same battery of test, the Honda E scored 76% for adult occupant protection, 82% for a child occupant, 62% for protecting pedestrians and cyclists, and 65% for its driver assists.

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.
