The ALPINA Land Rover Defender 110 1988 2,5 Turbo Diesel engine 68.000 Miles · Lots of new parts 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 aluminum. 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. Contact me for more details and quotes. Deposit

Jaguar Land Rover invests $1.5B to build factory in Slovakia
Fri, Dec 11 2015Jaguar Land Rover will invest 1 billion pounds ($1.5 billion at current rates) to build a new factory in Nitra, Slovakia. Construction will commence in 2016, and the site will have an initial capacity of 150,000 vehicles a year when the first of them roll out in late 2018. JLR expects to employ 2,800 people there. JLR won't yet say what vehicle it will build in Slovakia, other than it will be an all-new aluminum model. The 2018 timing for the plant's start of production seems to coincide with the launch of the radically different next-gen Land Rover Defender, though. Earlier reports suggested that JLR also considered locations in North America, particularly Georgia, and Europe for the new factory. However, the company signaled the Slovakia choice earlier this year when it signed a letter of intent with the government there in August. The automaker then did a final feasibility study before committing to the site. The new factory continues JLR's recent manufacturing expansion. The company opened an engine plant in the UK last year and a factory in China. There will also be one soon in Brazil, and it will reportedly bid to buy the Silverstone Circuit as a new headquarters. JAGUAR LAND ROVER CONFIRMS NEW FACTORY IN SLOVAKIA • New world-class premium manufacturing facility confirmed in Nitra • The next stage of the Company's plans for sustainable global growth • Today's announcement also supports long-term investment in the UK Bratislava, Slovakia – Jaguar Land Rover has confirmed that it will be the first British carmaker to open a manufacturing facility in Slovakia. The announcement follows an agreement between the company and the Government of the Slovak Republic to build a new plant in the city of Nitra, western Slovakia. The new world-class GBP1 billion premium manufacturing facility will eventually employ around 2,800 people. Today's announcement follows Jaguar Land Rover's recent confirmation to double its investment in its engine plant in the UK to almost GBP1 billion – the largest injection into a new British manufacturing plant in decades creating several hundred new jobs. Dr Ralf Speth, Chief Executive Officer, Jaguar Land Rover commented, "Jaguar Land Rover is delighted today to welcome Slovakia into our family. The new factory will complement our existing facilities in the UK, China, India and Brazil and marks the next step in the company's strategy to become a truly global business.

Jaguar Land Rover might buy another luxury brand that it doesn't need
Mon, Sep 25 2017It seems that Jaguar Land Rover may be getting bigger in the near future. According to Bloomberg, the company is looking at acquiring some tech companies, and possibly yet another luxury car brand, provided that it fits with the current lineup of cars. On the surface, this makes some sense since Bloomberg reports that a whopping 78 percent of Tata Motors' revenue comes from luxury brands. And of course, any kind of tech acquisition could be useful considering the rapid development of electric and autonomous vehicles. But dig a little deeper, and a possible luxury brand acquisition just doesn't make sense for Jaguar Land Rover. The main reason for this is that the Jaguar and Land Rover brands have the luxury market thoroughly covered. Both brands offer full luxury lines from entry-level to high-end ( Discovery Sport to Range Rover on the Land Rover side, and XE to XJ on the Jaguar side). They also cater to every kind of luxury, from sporty vehicles such as the F-Type and SVR Land Rovers, to cushy luxury machines such as the XJ and Range Rover. So whether the company is competing with BMW or Mercedes, Jaguar and Land Rover have the bases covered. There aren't any other typical luxury brands that would actually add anything to the current lineup. In fact, adding another conventional luxury brand could actually result in the new brand poaching existing Jaguar and Land Rover buyers, rather than picking up new ones. What would make more sense for Jaguar Land Rover would be to pick up either a more mainstream brand, or an ultra-luxury marque. Neither Jaguar nor Land Rover has something that competes directly with the likes of Ford or Toyota in the mainstream game, or Rolls-Royce or Bentley at the top of the luxury heap. Picking up a brand in one of these segments would allow JLR and Tata Motors to actually expand offerings and pick up more sales, rather than having an internal competitor. What path would be ideal? Probably going even farther upmarket. Supercar makers and ultra-luxury brands continue to sell well, and there's the potential for significant profit by layering on features and content to existing platforms. Perhaps the best possibility for a high-end complement to Jaguar Land Rover would be Aston Martin. Not only does it have a strong reputation and line-up, it also could handle both supercars and luxury sedans, thanks to its Lagonda sub brand. Of course it would require Aston Martin to be receptive to a purchase.
