Our mission is to sell beautiful mechanically sound and US legal vehicles, with 100% success! For more info about us and the way we work, please click on the about me button. Introduction: The Alpina The Vehicle As you will see in the list below, lots of work has been done and even more money has been spend to get this Land Rover in a very good state and working order. It’s originally from Cambridge, UK, where it has been used by a family as their holiday vehicle. It was dry stored and therefore in a really good condition when we bought her as our new project. First we started by stripping her down to bare aluminium. Then it got professionally sprayed in Alpine White, like the Defender NAS. When finished, all the parts where put back in place. As we tried to keep it as original as possible, most parts are the original parts but some of them where necessary to replace for new ones. When the body work was finished, our Land Rover mechanic started working on her. Everything got thoroughly checked, repaired or replaced to make sure the Alpina is completely ready for her new life. Underneath you will find a short list/summary. LIST OF WORK DONE/ NEW PARTS
The Engine The 2.5 liter 4 cylinder turbo diesel engine, is one of the best and most reliable engines land rover ever build. They’re made to last forever, are easy to maintain and never let you down. The turbo gives the extra torque you need. A lot of work has been done to make it ready for the next 100k miles. So no maintenance to be expected in the near future. Please promise us to service Aplina on a regular basis, as she will last a lot longer on fresh oil and regular TLC (tender, love and care). The Transmission She has a 5 speed manual transmission. Both gearbox and transfer box work excellent. No weird noises, rattles or what so ever. Selecting gears goes smooth as it should. The Defender is permanently in 4 wheel drive. High/low gear and differential lock are present and work perfectly. The gear knob is below and next to the gearbox stick. The Body The aluminum body and paintwork are in a very good condition. The recent paintjob makes the vehicle look like new. Of course you can see here and there that it isn’t new, some scratches and age marks. Also on some spots the combination of steel on the inside and thin aluminum on the outside causes some small marks. But for a 26 year old vehicle, it is really beautiful! The bulkhead and foot wells are clean and rust free. The doors are totally straight and have rust free bottoms, which is pretty unique. The windows work as they should, the same goes for all the locks. Please take care of the door hinges, they tend to rust if not regularly looked after. The Defender has a tow bar with electrics. Also an air intake snorkel is mounted if you need to go through deep water. The Chassis The complete chassis is in perfect condition. It is hard and strong as to expect from this Defender. It has been coated with a special impregnation substance that prevents rust and keeps it strong. This was done every two years by the previous owner. Worth mentioning is that the steering guard bar has a small dent, which hasn't effect on the function. The chassis number or VIN is clearly visible. US vin decoders won't recognize this vin because it's a European vin. The VIN is: SALLDHMB7EA329668
The Interior The inside of the vehicle is clean, tidy and original. The 5 seats and 2 benches are a in very good and original condition. The radio is old and is ready to be thrown out of the window. It’s your decision to plug in a new radio to your needs. The whole infrastructure is there. The tires The Defender has got 4 good all terrain tires and a brand new spare. It’s to be advised that if you are going to use the truck only on normal roads, to put normal road tires on it. If going to be used primarily on dirt roads or off road, put off-roaders under it. Service It has just got a full service. All the oils and lubricants in the axles, gearbox, transfer box and so one have been replaced. The Defender’s power steering system is in excellent condition. Customs, title and delivery The vehicle passed all DOT, EPA and DMV test/inspections and is 100% USA legal. Furthermore, in contrast to a lot of Defenders for sale on eBay, this Defender is already in the USA, Maryland, and has cleared customs, meets all EPA & DOT regulations and is ready to be titled. All necessary paperwork will be included. Where needed, we can assist with the titling as we have got the experience. If preferred, for transportation you can make use of our reliable trucker. Send an email for quotes. Deposit We require a deposit of $500, - within 24 hours after the end of auction. For more pictures please click on Alpina Recent Feedback: Hi guys... I wanted to write you a brief note to compliment you on the quality of the LRD110 I purchased from you off EBay. I have now used the truck for 6 months with trouble-free service. I have had a few repairs done by two separate LRD specialists (one near each of my houses) both of whom have heavily praised the truck's condition given its age. I have purchased two vehicles off of EBay - and I'm sure you guys know that it can be risky. Thanks for being so diligent in finding this clean original specimen! The experience has been "just what I wanted". Best regards, j.d. (To verify, check my EBay feedback of August 16th 2013)
Land Rover Defender 110s, especially classic years like 1987, are rare finds. To find one so well prepared and to work with a guy like Daniel van Oort who helped every step of the way and went way beyond our expectations even past delivery is AMAZING. I had such a great experience with Daniel. He kept me always informed of the process as our beautiful “Ms Red” made it through customs in Baltimore. He coordinated everything perfectly. As with all classic vehicles > 25 years old, there can always be subtle issues at first. There were a few, like a small dent in the bumper which occurred somewhere in shipping to the US. Daniel wasted no time negotiating these minor problems. He just dropped a new bumper in the post at his cost and several other spare parts or small items after that. Daniel knew I was a new LR owner and had much to learn. He never hesitated to send me advice and support. He quickly returned every email, was available from 1/2 way around the world when I was going through the tag & title process in Texas to make sure I had all the documentation.
I would completely recommend Daniel and his organization for future purchases and, in fact, I have been circulating his name among Land Rover clubs and social media that I participate in. He’s a top notch seller and there’s nothing I would change about our experience. My family and I have already created lots of great memories in our Land Rover Defender 110 and the candy-apple red color is a head turner!! We always get lots of compliments from other Land Rover classic owners who really know their stuff. They are also impressed with my experiences, the value and services I received from Daniel.
Thanks Daniel. Many more memories to come and my wife now wants a Land Rover Defender of her own….so will be in touch soon.

This Or That: 1987 VW Vanagon Syncro vs. 1987 Land Rover Defender [w/poll]
Thu, 13 Nov 2014As I scoured auction sites and classified ads for the perfect vehicle to take into battle with Autoblog Associate Editor Brandon Turkus, I knew I needed to find something unique. You see, I'm currently 0-2 at winning a round of This or That, in which two of our editors agree on a category, choose a side, and argue it out over a (mostly) friendly chain of emails.
The first time we did this, my chosen Fiat 500 Abarth took about a third of the popular vote in our reader poll. The second time, my lovely 1980 Oldsmobile 442 did just a little bit better against a 1989 BMW 635 CSi. Despite holding the opinion that my automotive choices, though perhaps a little bit more... obscure than my fellow editors, are still better, an outright win would go a long way toward boosting my vehicular self worth a few notches upward.
With all of that out of the way, even if three isn't my lucky number after all, I go into battle against Brandon knowing full well that I've made the perfect choice: A 1987 Volkswagen Vanagon Syncro. My rough-and-tumble van/'ute has a formidable opponent in the form of a 1987 Land Rover Defender, which, truth be told, is exactly what I was expecting from Turkus, a self-proclaimed Rover aficionado.
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.
