'It's what we do, and it's what we do best'
APOLLO born 04-01-1988
Here we have for sale a very unique one off Defender 110. This Defender has been subject to a full overhaul by our team of fully qualified technicians and is for sale today in the condition of its life and will make yourself, its perspective new owner one very lucky, happy and enviable person.
As a company we source the world for the very best examples of 25 year old Defenders that are genuine, authentic and above all on a solid chassis, the main platform of the Defender. Once found, captured and delivered back to site we set about what we do best, overhauling these wonderful iconic machines to there full glory and this is what you see before you for sale today.
This Defender has been subject to an engine, brake and suspension overhaul by our dedicated USA workshop, it has been fully painted both inside and out by our in house paint-shop and the interior has been trimmed and fitted by our team of highly skilled technicians. We have spent in excess of 12 weeks rebuilding, restoring and customising this Defender to standards far higher than any competitor in the world today.
The very first stage of the build involved us stripping down the chassis, brakes and suspension and treating the chassis to a full and intensive coating of WaxOyl to protect from the elements and any future corrosion. We have then upon this chassis rebuilt the brakes with new lines, replaced the braking systems and the suspension components including all bushes and arms. The Engine has been fully serviced and tuned and is now in the condition of its life, it runs, it purrs and boy does it sound awesome. The monstrous Defender V8 is a sound I can guarantee that you will adore. Before the paint process began all of the aluminium body panels have been sealed and treated to stop reactions within the paintwork in future years. Once our technicians were satisfied that our ever high standards in terms of preparations were met they handed the vehicle over to our paint team who have themselves prepared and painted this vehicle both inside and out to exceptional standards. The chosen colour is Santorini Black, it's a perlescent shade that upon contact with sunlight glistens and shows off every part of its 9 layer coating. The work gone into the vehicle is extraordinary. It really is not your typical re-spray, this is a full unique customisation to the highest possible standards. Jump on a plane, come on over and see this for yourselves. It is eye-catching, breathtaking and above all it's authentic.
The interior has been fully carpeted from top to bottom, the headlining has been re-trimmed, the seating is hand made to order and is half leather with contrasting mesh inserts with fine white stitching to the seams. We have added a Sony CD with uprated audio speakers equipped to take an Ipod/Iphone. This model is equipped to carry 'NINE' yes nine people in total and what better a way to carry yourself and your loved ones than in this awesome specimen of a LandRoversUK built machine. There been no bolt left unturned, no screw left unwound and no component overlooked. This Defender is ready to go, ready to please and ready for it's new owner and life within the USA.

We will handle all export documentation within the UK and can assist within importation and customs clearance by providing you with details of our agents in the USA.

If you are a USA based buyer looking for the highest quality Land Rover Defenders, please take 5 minutes to read this advert in full. We are a multi-award winning Land Rover Defender sales specialist with a stock of around 30 vehicles available for purchase now...
1) Why you haven't yet found the Defender you are looking for...
Unfortunately it is not possible to buy a new Land Rover Defender in the United Sates. The Defender does not meet current United States Department of Transportation (DOT) or Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) manufacturing standards. A few thousand units were manufactured for the North American market in the early to mid 1990s but, since this time, DOT and EPA regulations have changed and Land Rover have taken the decision not to, due to the prohibitive cost, redesign the Defender simply to satisfy North American requirements. Therefore new Land Rover Defenders have not been available in the United States since 1996.
2) So what is the law if you want to import a Defender...
In order to import any Defender in to the United States, the vehicle must be at least 25 years old and the engine must be an authentic Land Rover engine that is at least 21 years old (this means you CANNOT import vehicles with the modern TD5 or TDCi Land Rover engines). These import rules apply because any 25 year old vehicle is considered a classic car in the USA and subsequently it is officially exempt from all DOT and EPA regulations. The vehicle must be 25 years or older to bypass all DOT regulations and the engine must be 21 years or older to bypass all EPA regulations. If a Defender is younger than 25 years of age or it had been fitted with an engine younger than 21 years of age it would also - in order to be imported - need to be customised to comply with all current DOT and EPA requirements (this would include the re-design of the engine bay to create an impact crumple zone, the replacement of the engine with an EPA approved engine, the replacement of the dash board to allow the installation of air bags, and a long list of other expensive alterations that would require a fundamental re-design of the vehicle... this is exactly why Land Rover have not re-designed the Defender for the North American markets). The following information regarding vehicle import is copied directly from current DOT import policy:
"Overview of DOT Import Requirements for Vehicles and Engines
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards Exclusions
Section 8. Importing a vehicle that is at least 25 years old.
A motor vehicle that is at least 25 years old can be lawfully imported into the U.S. without regard to whether it complies with all applicable Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS). Such a vehicle would be entered under Box 1 on the HS-7 Declaration form to be given to Customs at the time of importation. You should note that the 25 year period runs from the date of the vehicle's manufacture."
Section 3: EPA Exclusions
A vehicle is exempted (from all EPA requirements) if it has been 21 years or more since its original production year and it is in its original unmodified condition. Upon entry, the importer must file an EPA Form 3520-1 with Customs and declare code "E" on the form.
3) So what can you Import to the USA...
The term "original unmodified condition" used above has been formally defined by U.S Customs as a vehicle that: "has not been significantly altered from its original key structural or mechanical configuration". This means that a vehicle can be sympathetically restored, repaired or reconditioned but that it CANNOT be fundamentally altered. You cannot import a vehicle that has a contemporary engine (unless that engine is formally approved by the EPA); a replacement chassis; an automatic transmission conversion, a modernised drive or suspension system, or that has been converted from right hand drive to left hand drive. If you do, the vehicle can be rejected, indefinitely impounded, or even destroyed by United States Customs (and, as the importer, it is you that will be liable for the loss).
What you can legitimately do is import a vehicle that has its original chassis, original transmission, is in its original left hand drive or right hand drive configuration (evidenced by an official Land Rover Certificate of Conformity), and that has a Land Rover production engine manufactured at least 21 years ago. You can update, repair, and restore bodywork, paint work, trim and upholstery and you can repair, recondition or restore (not significantly upgrade) the original mechanical components of the vehicle. You can fit 'bolt on' external equipment - such as roof racks or spot lights - but you cannot install integrated modern technologies such as built in satellite navigation or reverse parking cameras.
4) Buying a Land Rover Defender from us...
Land Rovers UK Ltd specialise in sourcing the very finest 25 year old Land Rovers that are - IMPORTANTLY - sitting on a genuine, original, clean, corrosion-free, authentic chassis (with the original Land Rover VIN number officially stamped on it) and that are powered by an authentic, genuine Land Rover engine of the correct era (with the correct engine number officially stamped on it). We can supply factory-fitted left hand drive or right hand drive Defender 90 or 110 models with between 2 and 12 seats. We can supply diesel or gasoline variations and we can supply original cloth interiors or bespoke luxury modern interiors. All our vehicles will have manual transmissions but can be converted by you to automatic transmission once the vehicle has passed through US Customs.
We tirelessly restore our USA vehicles to the highest cosmetic and mechanical standard and then we finish them to your personal specification. We will professionally repair body and paint work, fully mechanically recondition the vehicle, refurbish or up-date the interior upholstery and trim, and fit any additional 'bolt on' equipment or accessories that you require. It is worth noting that the design of the Defender has barely changed in 30 years so you lose out on very little buying a 25 year old vehicle instead of a 5 year old vehicle!
Finally, we follow the correct process to remove the vehicles from the UK registry, coordinate the transportation of the vehicle to UK port of departure, complete the outgoing customs clearance and vehicle loading, and ship the vehicle to your closest mainland U.S. port for you or your appointed Customs Agent to import and collect.
5) What you need to do when importing a vehicle...
All Land Rover Defenders sold by our company will be subject to a 2.5% duty upon U.S importation which you will need to pay separately to U.S Customs along with approximately c. $150 in customs clearance administration fees, $400 on bond fees, $125 on EPA/DOT fees, and - depending on your port of entry - a small charge for harbour maintenance fees. You will also need to arrange for, and meet the cost thereof, any registration process that is required within your home State (you should discuss this with your official State vehicle registration agency).
If you would like to appoint a U.S based Customs Clearance Agent to coordinate the importation on your behalf, or if you would like any further information about the customs or importation process, please contact:

Neither Jaguar nor Land Rover has ever been mistaken for big-time green-car brands, but their parent company is trying to change that. Jaguar Land Rover looks to have as many as half of its models be of the hybrid, plug-in hybrid, or battery-electric variety by 2020, CEO Ralf Speth said at the Los Angeles Auto Show last week. Speth made the announcement while showing off the I-Pace concept compact crossover. The green-car expansion would mark a natural extension of Jaguar Land Rover's decision last year to double the headcount in its advanced-engineering department. As for the five-seat I-Pace, that model will be Jaguar Land Rover's first production electric vehicle when it starts sales in 2018. The car will have a 90-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery pack that will deliver a single-charge range of about 220 miles. Boasting more than 400 horsepower, the car will also be able to go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in about four seconds. What's also notable is that Jaguar says the model has been designed to be an electric vehicle from the ground up, and hasn't been converted from the platform of an existing model. Of course, Jaguar late last year said it would enter a team in the FIA Formula E electric-vehicle open-wheel racing circuit, so the British badge has made recent noise about upping its green-car quotient. As for the I-Pace, the automaker hasn't revealed pricing on the model, but it's safe to say that it will be quite high. Check out a three-minute video of Speth's presentation here. Related Video:

We interrupt your regularly scheduled Frankfurt Motor Show coverage to bring you something far cooler. Jaguar Land Rover has officially introduced the cars it's lending to the latest James Bond film, Spectre. There's not much that wasn't previously covered as part JLR's February 2015 release, although there are some comments from the stars, as well as a pair of behind-the-scenes videos. At the very forefront of the British brand's charge is the Jaguar C-X75, the stillborn concept that set hearts aflutter with its handsome looks and its innovative turbine-powered drivetrain. According to Jaguar Land Rover, the orange supercar will be piloted by baddie Dave Bautista as part of an enormous chase scene throughout Rome. Meanwhile, Eve Moneypenny, played by Naomie Harris in her second Bond flick, will pilot the blacked-out Defender. For those that remember Skyfall, Miss Moneypenny spent most of the film's pre-title sequence tearing through Istanbul, Turkey behind the wheel of a silver Defender. Joining the Defender is the most powerful vehicle Land Rover has ever produced. The new Range Rover Sport SVR will show up wearing a menacing black paint job and featuring some extra lighting on both its roof and in its bumper. It's not clear who will be driving the 550-horsepower SVR, but in the photos released by JLR, it's shown trading places with a pair of Defenders as they rampage through the Austrian snow. Check out the photos of the vehicles below. You'll find both studio stuff and some set photos. There's also a full press release from JLR, as well as a pair of behind-the-scenes videos. Show full PR text Jaguar and Land Rover stunt vehicles Jaguar C-X75, Range Rover Sport SVR and Land Rover Defender make international debut in Frankfurt, Germany ?

At the Goodwood Festival of Speed this past weekend, Land Rover previewed its upcoming performance version of the Range Rover Sport. Only instead of wearing the R-S badge that adorns the most hardcore of Jaguar models, the performance SUV from JLR's Special Operations unit introduced the letters SVR. And now, it seems that badge is here to stay.
Following the Range Rover Sport SVR, a new report from Motor Authority now says that Jaguar Land Rover will use those letters to distinguish the top-of-the-line performance models from both marques moving forward. As such, we might expect SVR models of the upcoming Jaguar XE compact sedan and Land Rover Discovery Sport, as well as potential new performance models based on the new F-Type and next-generation XF.
If accurate, the move would seem to separate Jaguar in particular from the R-S badge that has adorned performance models like the XFR-S and XKR-S. Both Audi and Porsche use the letters RS to distinguish its most hardcore models as well (e.g. Audi RS7 Sportback and Porsche 911 GT3 RS). Whether the similarity was a factor in shifting to the SVR moniker, we don't know, but either way, we welcome the arrival of a new generation of Jaguar and Land Rover performance models - especially if they pack the 575-horsepower version of the company's ubiquitous 5.0-liter supercharged V8. Not incidentally, that delicious powerplant gained a couple of new engine bays to call home at Goodwood as well - it's not just found in the forthcoming Range Rover Sport SVR, it's found a home in the F-Type Project 7, too.
