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.

Jaguar Land Rover gives Lyft $25M and a fleet of cars
Mon, Jun 12 2017Lyft recently raised $600 million in a massive funding round, and now we know that $25 million of that came from Jaguar Land Rover, via its mobility services subsidiary InMotion. The car maker's investment in Lyft goes beyond just funds, however; it's providing Lyft drivers with a fleet of Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles as part of the tie-up, and it's also going to work with the ride-hailing tech company on autonomous vehicle testing. This is yet another high-profile partner for Lyft after a spate of recent new collaborators, including Waymo and, just last week, Nutonomy. Now, Jaguar Land Rover is also joining the company's Open Platform for autonomous cars: The collaboration with InMotion will see the Jaguar Land Rover-owned company "develop and test its mobility services, including autonomous vehicles" using Lyft's platform. Lyft's ability to rapidly bring on a lot of partners in the car maker space, specifically around autonomy, may have a lot to do with rival Uber's ongoing problems, which now also include mounting calls for CEO Travis Kalanick to step back, at least temporarily, from his leadership role. Lyft has also been pretty clear about seeking to partner on autonomy, rather than pursue its own tech, which is likewise different from Uber's current approach. Uber, too, has brought automakers to the table around self-driving services and making use of its ride hailing platform for mobility service offerings. Both Uber and Lyft seem interested in being the layer that connects riders and these future services, and for automakers, it means leaving a complex and challenging part of the picture to partners with experience and expertise, rather than having to spin up that part of the tech business themselves. The fleet provision in the deal is also interesting, and suggests the partnership between the two could involve more strategic cooperative service offerings ahead of the advent of commercial self-driving tech. Lyft gaining more ground among automakers beyond longtime partner GM also explains why it was reported that the ride hailing company turned down overtures regarding a potential acquisition by the Detroit-based automaker.Written by Darrell Etherington for TechCrunch.Related Video:
Jaguar Land Rover gets to work on new university R&D center
Fri, Mar 20 2015Jaguar Land Rover has a raft of new products in the pipeline, from the new Defender to the next-generation XF sedan. But new product isn't the only thing the British automaker is investing in: it's also opening new facilities around the world, including what it's calling the National Automotive Innovation Centre back home in the UK. Based at the University of Warwick, the new $220-million R&D center is the result of a joint effort between JLR, its parent company Tata, the manufacturing arm of the university and the British government. The facility will bring together professionals from the automaker as well as its suppliers with academics to encourage, as the name suggests, innovation in the automotive sector. Its 355,000 square feet are earmarked to become the hub for Jaguar Land Rover's advanced research activities, including "workshops, laboratories, virtual engineering suites and advanced powertrain facilities, equipped to enable a full range of design, visualisation and prototyping activities." The cornerstore was just laid in a ceremony this week, but the facility isn't due to open until the Spring of 2017 when it will encompass some 1,000 employees, including 600 relocated by JLR to the new location from other sites in the UK.
