1988 Land Rover 110 300tdi LHD SW This is a great opportunity to get an entry level 110 Diesel. You don't want to miss this chance to get a LHD 110 that is already stateside and legal. These trucks get harder and harder to bring in each year. This wonderful example will be a great starting point to build your perfect camping/adventuremobile...or you can drive it as is reliably as a DD. Everyone has their own ideas of what they need in a rig and that's why we are leaving this one up to you to personalize and build as you see fit. 100% legally imported and titled. Florida Title in hand. Truck gets a lot of attention and people love these things. Has full length roof rack and rear access ladder. Both have been texture painted black since the photos were taken. This 110 was purchased from Southern Spain in Gibraltar and then riven back up to England for shipment. As such, it is in good shape for its age and was spared from the rust of damp England. We just installed 5 brand new 235/85 Kenda MT tires that look and ride excellent. The truck runs very well and fires up right away. The 300tdi and auto came out of a low mileage discovery and were installed prior to our purchase. The engine is cleanly converted and is overall a nice install. No smoke while running or under heavy pedal. Small puff at start up but otherwise great none. The exhaust has a few leaks but it does not effect drive at all. There is only 187,000km or approximately 116,000 miles on the truck. For a 25yr old vehicle it is good shape. Frame is rot free and not covered in rust. Slight rust areas at the door bottoms, very some small rust at the upper bulkhead(easy fix if you need to) and a few small spots on the footwell. All of these are the common areas of concern with old Series adn 90/110's. Due to aodd design the water tends to pool on these surfaces and cause corrosion. However, this particular truck has a very minimal amount of oxidation. Bulkhead is otherwise solid. Structurally solid top to bottom. The paint is a bit aged in spots and it has some dents, but this is to be expected. Honestly paint and flawless exteriors are not what it's about with overlanding. As is it can be driven economically and made into the perfect adventure-mobile. Since we picked this truck up at the port in GA we have put 500km on it and it hasn't missed a beat. Recently took it to New Smyrna Beach and averaged 28mpg. It preformed wonderfully and got a lot of attention from the beach goers. For a 25yr old shed on wheels the 110 rode very smoothly and was quite comfortable cruising along at 60mph down the back roads of Central Florida. Suspension is firm as you would expect from the OME kit, but not overly so. This vehicle is 25yrs old and as such has the normal expected wear for it's age. Do not come expecting a showroom 110. If that is what you are looking for you are going to pay 30k+ and even then it will probably be RHD. That being said, it is a great truck that is the perfect starting point for your own adventure lifestyle. We aren't selling you just a truck....these things are a lifestyle. Go explore and travel well. Text for details and additional pics....it is easier for me to get back to you quickly via email/text. Calls are welcomed, however be sure and leave a message so I can remember to call you back if I don't answer. Blue roof awning is not included in sale. Key Points: *Imported legally and has passed all customs and DMV inspections. Titled, insured and driven daily currently so mileage can change. *4WD works perfectly and engages smoothly including diflock *No A/C (as some of you have asked). The 300TDI engine has a mounting location for AC to be installed if you feel the need. Honestly if you want a nice air conditioned vehicle I suggest you look towards the RRC or D1 *Transmission shifts smoothly *Brakes are working fine *Excellent Fuel economy *Brand New 235/85 Kenda MT tires and fullsize spare *Old Man Emu 755 Heavy Duty Springs *Paint is old, but really makes the truck look tough *No overheating or other problems associated with the engine *Not equipped with power steering *Has CD player but lacks speakers On Jul-03-14 at 08:33:19 PDT, seller added the following information: Please do not bid on this truck if your feedback is under 5 without first contacting me.

Jaguar crossover won't be based on Evoque or have off-road chops
Wed, 21 Aug 2013Jaguar's long-rumored crossover won't be built on the same platform as the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque, says the Australian site Car Advice. The future of the new CUV remains uncertain, but if Jaguar does dip its toes into the SUV/crossover pool, though, the new vehicle will likely be a car-based soft roader, lacking (or perhaps more appropriately, not needing) the off-road-engineered chops inherent in Land Rover's small CUV platform.
Jaguar product planner Steven De Ploey explained to Car Advice, "There's many groups around the world [platform sharing] - obviously Volkswagen Group is doing it all the time - but I think we have to be careful. He added, "Jaguar is something quite different... It's about capability, but very much on-road focused capability." That seems to gel with our suspicions that the XQ, as it's expected to be called, will share its platform with an upcoming small Jaguar sedan, the oft-rumored X-Type successor.
Still, we'd recommend taking any mention of a Jaguar crossover with a grain of salt. Based on many of the (quite compelling) statements made by De Ploey against a Jag crossover and previous statements made by Jag's design boss, Ian Callum, the case against a leaper-bearing crossover seems strong. If a high-rider were to arrive from Jaguar, though, the article insinuates that it'd be more in line with the BMW X6 or upcoming X4 - sort of a coupe-based crossover. Like we said, grain of salt. If a Jag crossover is going to arrive soon, the upcoming Frankfurt Motor Show is the most likely locale for its debut. We'll find out in a few weeks.
Watch a Cayenne Turbo S, Range Rover SVR, and Cherokee SRT drag race
Thu, Mar 17 2016We live in a weird world where high-performance SUVs could win a 60-mile-per-hour sprint against sports cars from just a few years ago. Here, Top Gear sets up a three-way drag race against the Porsche Cayenne Turbo S, Land Rover Range Rover Sport SVR, and Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT, and the results show just how quickly these high-riding models can cross the quarter mile. The Cherokee SRT is the patriotic choice among the three, but it's down on power in this fight. Meanwhile, the Range Rover's menacing growl sounds the best, and the Cayenne Turbo S has the most horsepower. You'll have to watch the video to see which SUV will win this battle. Related Video:
Land Rover will put a Covid-nuking air filtration system in future cars
Tue, Mar 16 2021Jaguar - Land Rover (JLR) is developing an air filtration system that inhibits up to 97% of viruses and airborne bacteria. Designed like a face mask for your car's HVAC system, it's built on Panasonic's Nanoe X technology. Most of the company's models (including the Land Rover Defender) currently come equipped with Panasonic's Nanoe technology and PM2.5 filtration. Nanoe X is 10 times more effective, according to the brand, because it relies on a high voltage to create trillions of hydroxyl (OH) radicals enveloped in nano-sized water molecules. Think of them as Roman guards in front of a fortress: they keep the bad out, and ensure only the good can come in. Viruses and bacteria proteins are denatured when they come into contact with the filtration system, meaning they can't reproduce or grow. The OH radicals also zap common allergens and mold, but they're harmless to humans. JLR stressed it's not relying on computer simulations to decide whether its filtration system works as designed. It asked British laboratory Perfectus Biomed to perform a test that simulates a ventilation system in recirculation mode for a 30-minute cycle in a sealed chamber. The results were encouraging: 97% of viruses and airborne bacteria were nuked. The carmaker pointed out Panasonic's Nanoe X technology has been independently proven to inhibit 99.995% of coronaviruses during a two-hour laboratory test carried out by French immunology lab Texcell. Future models from Jaguar and Land Rover will use this technology, though a representative for both companies declined to tell us when it will reach production, and which nameplate(s) will inaugurate it. Meanwhile, Honda launched its own coronavirus killer across the pond. It's a cabin air filter sold as a genuine replacement part that consists of four layers, including one coated with an active substance of fruit extract that inactivates nearly 100% of the viral aerosols it captures. It's available in Europe through Honda dealers, but it won't be sold in America. Jaguar Land Rover
