I am the original, and only owner of this 1994 Defender 90.
I purchased it in Minneapolis,( August 1994) where I had a home, and immediately drove it to my home in Naples, Florida, where it has been garaged for its existence. Other than the trip from Minneapolis (1900 miles on the interstate), and a couple of trips to Key West (440 miles round trip), the car has been under cover, and out of the sun for 99.9% of the time, while in my procession. It has 15561 miles on the odometer as of 5/30/14…. I still drive it to the coffee shop on occasion These are soft miles because the truck has never been off the road, but merely used, to drive around town, and to haul nursery plants, or stuff from the Home Depot. Perhaps best described as a novelty vehicle for me. In preparation for sale, I gave thought to replacing the original floor mats, and cargo liner, however found that only the liner, was still available, through Land Rover…….So, I purchased it, and it arrived about a week ago….It is included, and displayed in one of the photos I have the window sticker, bill of sale, and the original full canvas top, and two windows…plus service records….In addition, I have the original radio,(included) which still works, however was replaced by a newer one, that was better for receiving sirius radio (see bracket in photo)….I have the document with the code, to activate, if you choose to reinstall the original radio. The spare tire has never been off the rear door mount, and you can still see the tire mould excesses on the tread. Perhaps the craziest acccessory, is a tonneau cover (see photo). It was on the truck when I purchased it, and immediately put in my garage…i forgot I had it, however it looks brand new……..It has three pockets…Two over the seat tops, and one over the spare tire. All the snaps are on the vehicle….Can't imagine using it, however for the purists, it is included. In reviewing the window sticker , the base price was $27,900 plus $900.00 for the Five-Spoke Aluminum Alloy Wheels….+ $95.00 for Inland transportation…Total $29,395….Port of entry Oxnard, California I also have the marketing brochure…Highlights?……182 H.P.3.9 Litre Aluminum V-8……..BF Goodrich Radial Mud Terrain T/A Tires…7"x16" Wheels…..Estimated Curb weight 3560 Lbs….and a 15.6 gallon gas tank Why am I selling it?….Well at 71, I am starting to tidy up the assets in my estate, and the last thing I want to do is turn it over to some bone headed heir, who would either abuse it, or not recognize it's value. I have been watching the auctions of Defenders for the past two months on E-Bay Needless to say I want to play a role in it's placement, and yes, I do watch "Chasing Classic Cars" Oh….I will of course work with you on shipment (your responsibility)…However will be available to shepard the truck onto the transport company of your choice. My neighbors, ship exotic cars up north all the time for their summer use…. An enclosed transport would be the advised approach I can be reached, via voice, or text, on my cell phone 239 272 7035. My name is Ed |

Kahn and Evanta team up for hot-rod Defender, custom Barchetta
Thu, Jul 10 2014If you're familiar with the work of Afzal Kahn, it's probably for his tuned Range Rovers. And if you live in London, you may have seen his Bugatti Veyron with the F1 license plate. But the British tuner and self-styled "automotive fashion designer" is now embarking on a far more ambitious project. Kahn is teaming up with Ant Anstead of Evanta fame – responsible for rebodying Aston Martin DB7s to look like DB4 GTs and that full-scale DBR1/2 model kit – on a new outfit called Ant-Kahn. Far more than a tuning endeavor, Ant-Kahm is setting about creating truly unique (and uniquely British) automobiles. Their first project is called the Flying Huntsman, a long-nose Land Rover Defender that we imagine will emerge as something like a British take on the 1998 Jeepster concept crossed with something Icon might concoct. It'll pack a 6.2-liter GM LS3 V8 producing 550 horsepower, mated to a push-button six-speed automatic transmission, mounted close to the bulkhead with over 15 inches of extra bodywork and set to be unveiled within the coming months. Their second collaboration is set to yield the Evanta Barchetta previewed by rendering above. "Inspired by the design language of 1950s motorsport," the Barchetta pays homage to classic British and Italian roadsters. It's being built around a tubular frame with handcrafted composite Kevlar bodywork and powered by that same LS3 tuned to 450 hp but in a much lighter form than the Flying Hunstman. Only 20 examples will be made after its debut at the Goodwood Revival come September. An Aston Martin project codenamed WB12 is also in the works, painting a picture of an ambitious startup backed by two experienced operators whose projects we're looking forward to seeing come to fruition. Ant-Kahn – The birth of a groundbreaking collaboration between two leading figures in the UK automotive industry. Ant-Kahn is a collaborative partnership between Afzal Kahn - innovative automotive fashion designer and founder of the Kahn group of companies, and Ant Anstead, founder of expert vehicle manufacturer Evanta, and star of Channel 4's "For The Love of Cars". Working together under the Ant-Kahn banner, they will lead a resurgence in British specialist vehicle manufacture, with a number of projects already underway. Their focus is on luxury and quality, using modern prototyping and manufacturing technology, while maintaining the attention to details associated with traditional coach building.
Jaguar Land Rover opens first overseas factory in China
Wed, 22 Oct 2014Anyone who's a car fan knows that Jaguar and Land Rover cars and trucks all come from the UK. And while we don't doubt that will remain true for the most part, it won't be an absolute truth for long, as the British automaker has just opened its first factory overseas.
Its new plant in Changshu, China, is the result of a $1.8-billion joint venture between JLR and local automaker Chery. It covers some 4.3-million square feet and will, once at peak capacity, produce 130,000 units specifically for the Chinese market, where JLR sells over 100,000 vehicles each year to make it the company's single largest market worldwide.
Production at what's officially known as the Chery Jaguar Land Rover Automotive Company will start with the Evoque, of which one in five globally are currently sold in China. Production will eventually encompass three models. We already know that the Discovery Sport will be next, but the third model line has yet to be announced. JLR has confirmed, however, that the Changshu plant will produce unique models and derivatives specifically for the Chinese market, so we wouldn't be surprised to see a long-wheelbase version of the forthcoming XE or next-generation XF assembled there to satisfy local tastes.
Mazda CX-5 named Japan's Car of The Year, Subaru BR-Z wins "Special Award"
Mon, 03 Dec 2012The Mazda CX-5 stamped its Kodo design and SkyActiv technology authority all over the Japan Car of the Year awards, taking the top prize ahead of the Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT 86. It is Mazda's second victory in the last ten years, the 2005 MX-5 claiming the same trophy, and the fourth time the Hiroshima company has won.
The award is decided by 60 local "automotive experts and journalists," and open to any passenger car released in Japan from November 1, 2011 to October 31, 2012 that has sold more than 500 units. Each judge gets 25 votes, his or her top vote getting 10 points, the rest of the points being spread among the judge's choice for the next best four cars.
The second-place getters were the Toyobaru twins with 318 votes, the surprise being they didn't beat or get any closer to the crossover. The Subaru BRZ did claw some mojo back, earning the Special Award given to cars that have made "an exceptional impact." The BMW 3 Series was third overall and won the Import Car of the Year award with plenty of room between it and the second place Range Rover Evoque.
