1986 Ex-military Soft Top Defender 90 on 2040-cars
Year:1986
Mileage:72000
Location:
|
This vehicle is in excellent original military condition, and served
with the Regiment that mans the guns at Edinburgh Castle, Scotland. A
soft top with roll cage, and tailgate are fitted. The vehicle also comes with
the original military updated trim on the interior. Conversion to LHD is also
possible here in the USA. VIN: SALLDVAC7AAxxxxxx This British Army Land Rover Defender 90 is exceptional.
It served 26 years and was serviced meticulously. All the panels are like new,
the paint is original Land Rover military green. The interior is the latest
military upgrade to these trucks, seats covered with Outlast (Exmoor trim)
fabric for durability and use in hot and extreme climates. In the back, bench
seats with fully retractable seat belts provide seating for four. The
tailgate has the original digging tools fitted. The engine is the original heavy duty British Army
diesel, with a design that has been tested in an arduous 500hour durability
test. The truck odometer shows just over 22,000 km, confirmed on the
military retirement certificate. The odometer was changed at 10999 km so the total vehicle mileage is likely to be
more. The vehicle is in Virginia Beach with full clear
Virginia title and all customs paperwork appropriately stamped during its import process. The Defender has a VA state inspection, is exempt EPA emissions
testing, and as it is older than 25 years old, exempt from DOT regulations as
an antique.
The truck is totally stock military spec and drives
very well. All seals and the drive train have been inspected, and timing belt
changed. It has Land Rover power assisted steering fitted. This Land Rover Defender 90 served with 105 Regt RA (V) for 26 years, eventually retiring from the British Army at the end of 2012. The regiment commemorated the 61st anniversary of Her Majesty The Queen's accession to the throne at Edinburgh Castle. In Scotland, 7 Feb 2013, gunners from 105 Regiment Royal Artillery (Volunteers) fired a 21-gun royal salute at Edinburgh Castle, Scotland. Commanding Officer
of 105 Regiment Royal Artillery, Lieutenant Colonel James Cook, said: “The regiment is
honoured to fire the royal salute at Edinburgh Castle to commemorate the
accession of Her Majesty The Queen.
The royal salute
provides a great occasion for the gunners to display their professionalism and
pride in conducting such an honour in Scotland’s capital city.” |

Jaguar Land Rover building new R&D center for hybrids, EVs, autonomous cars
Wed, 25 Sep 2013The success of Jaguar Land Rover in recent years has largely been down to a resurgent product lineup, but a recent move into the research and development will see the British-based, Indian-owned brands take the fight to its German rivals more aggressively than ever before.
JLR is investing 50 million pounds ($80,345,000, as of this writing) in a joint R&D center in central England. The move will more than triple its staff dedicated to research, from 150 to 500, with Wolfgang Epple, JLR's Director of Research and Technology telling Automotive News Europe, "In order to play among the big animals in automotive and to be anchored in the mind of customers you have to have offered something unique, to be first in market. We want to be one of the key premier automotive manufacturers."
Jaguar Land Rover's 50-million-pound contribution represents more than half of the 94-million-pound tab, on the so-called National Automotive Innovation Campus. Based at Warwick University, Tata's European Technical Center, Warwick Manufacturing Group and the Higher Education Funding Council, an agency of the British government, are all chipping in for the facility.

Land Rover knows where you're going and how you want to get there
Thu, 10 Jul 2014Land Rover makes some of the most capable SUVs on or off the road, and some of the most luxurious too. But the British automaker isn't about to rest on those laurels - not when every other automaker assaults its territory with sport-utes of their own. That's why Land Rover has been working so hard on nifty new technologies from a depth-sounder in the door mirror of the Range Rover Sport an augmented-reality head-up display that makes the whole front of the car virtually disappear.
JLR's newest tech may not be ground-breaking, but its integration promises to make driving around town that much easier. The system syncs with the driver's smartphone and uses all manner of parameters - including driver habits, weather and location as well as the presence of other passengers - to make the commute go as smoothly as possible. Get into the car and it'll set the seat and mirrors for you. No big deal, because lots of cars do that. But it'll also set up the nav system to take you to work and the sound system to play your favorite music. Okay, getting more interesting.
Get in with your kids and it'll know not only that you've got to drop them off at school first (or remind you to pack their gym bag if they've got soccer practice after school that day) but that they might not enjoy that Chumbawamba album you've been listening to since college and it'll play something it knows you'll all enjoy based on your listening history. Then it'll switch back to Tubthumping once the kids are out, remind you of your morning meeting and alert those you're scheduled to meet with if you get stuck in traffic while finding you a better route to get there, monitoring fuel levels all the while and telling you if you'll need to tank up before you reach your destination. It knows if you like calling your mother on the drive to work and will lower the air suspension to make it easier to hop out once you get there.
