1995 North American Specification (NAS) Land Rover Defender 90
 
This Black/Black NAS D90 is a rare find!  It's one of only 1190 Soft Tops made in 1995 for the US market - '95 being the lowest production run of the three years (94,95, and 97) NAS D90s - and the Black Defenders seem to be the toughest color to find.  It's got some nice options/upgrades such as the diamond plate wingtops and sills, safari rack with ladder, step bumper with class iii hitch, rear flip and fold forward facing bench seat, upgraded stereo and speakers, Land Rover fiberglass removable hardtop, Land Rover rubber mats, tinted windows, and more.  So let's move to condition:
 
Outside:  As you can see from the photos, this Defender has typical imperfections consistent with age/miles but overall it's really a great looking truck.  I've included detailed photos of all panels so you can see the chips, nicks, dings, etc.  More close-ups can be emailed if you need them.  It appears 90% of the paint is original judging by the slight "checking" of the paint on tops of the panels.  Only the left rear quarter doesn't have that trait, so we believe that was repainted at some point over the last 19 years.  This is of particular interest because this Defender has salvage history (we've researched and understand it was a clerical error, but haven't been able to verify either way) but it's obvious to us it's never been hit.  There have been chip touch-ups of course, and it looks like the bumpers were painted to keep them looking fresh, but over all a very original example.  The upgrades like diamond plate wingtops/sills and safari rack really make this Defender look aggressive... definitely a head turner!
 
Inside:  The inside of this D90 is in good condition.  It has Land Rover rubber mats that are fairly new, and the floors underneath are clean and appear rust free.  There are seat covers protecting the front seats and the rear flip forward bench seat.  There's wear and a split on the original driver seat, but the outer covers are in great shape.  The dash is in good shape, as are the door panels.  Few flaws are the driver door pocket is missing, shift knob is a bit loose, trim around the glove box handle is cracked, and the right skylight is missing.  The prior owner upgraded the factory sound system to a Pioneer radio and MTX speakers that sound good along with some LED floorboard lighting that helps you see things inside at night.
 
Mechanical:  You read the mileage correctly - 151,000 miles and counting.  A testament to how durable these Defenders are.  It also helps show why they've become so collectible.  If you're not familiar with Defenders you should know to be wary of "low miles" rigs as they've often had odometer tampering or replacement.  There's many ways to tell... but you don't have to suspect that with this one (obviously)!  This D-90 is fairly stock and hasn't been heavily modified.  It runs and drives great.  The 5 speed transmission shifts well up/down gears, the clutch feels tight, and the transfer case hi & low (plus center locking differential) all seem to work well - although I haven't tested it off road.  The brakes are good with no pull, and this Landy tracks straight going down the road.  It has a fairly new NRP stainless steel exhaust system, battery, and other misc services done.  Tread is 50% and the tires are a bit dry rotted... but we will put NEW tires on if the Buy Now option is used.  There's a slight oil leak that looks like it's at the filter, but over all it's a very tight Defender that you'll be able to drive and enjoy for many years to come.
 
 
In closing, I've tried to provide an honest forthright description of this Defender, but please remember it's nearly 20 years old and I am not an expert on these.  I invite all interested buyers to inspect this Defender or I can drop it off at Land Rover for you to have a pre-purchase inspection done.  If you have any questions or need additional photos, please email and I'll get back to you ASAP.

Jaguar Land Rover planning to allow owners to earn cryptocurrency

Mon, Apr 29 2019

Jaguar Land Rover, Britain's largest auto manufacturer, said on Monday it is testing software that will allow drivers of its cars to earn the IOTA cryptocurrency as a reward for sharing data. The company is developing what it calls "smart wallet" technology to be installed in its automobiles. This would reward Jaguar car drivers with IOTA coins for actions such as enabling their vehicles to automatically report useful data, such as traffic congestion or potholes to navigation providers or local authorities. Drivers could also earn rewards if the car participates in a ride-sharing program, Jaguar said. The tokens earned could be used to pay for tolls, parking and charging for electric cars. The overall goal was to "achieve zero emissions, zero accidents, and zero congestion," the company said. Global car companies are exploring blockchain applications, figuring out different ways in which they can leverage the technology to suit their different needs. Blockchain, the system powering cryptocurrencies like bitcoin, is a shared database that is maintained by a network of computers connected to the internet. The British car company is testing the technology at the new Jaguar Land Rover software engineering base in Shannon, Ireland, where engineers have already equipped several vehicles, including the Jaguar F-PACE and Range Rover Velar, with "smart wallet" features, the company said. It does not yet have a timetable for when it will be commercially available, said Jaguar, a subsidiary of Tata Motors. The IOTA token is based on a distributed ledger technology that enables people and machines to transfer money and data without any transaction fees. IOTA trades on digital asset exchanges and was last at 27 U.S. cents per token. "The smart wallet technology ... can be easily adapted into all new vehicles," Dominik Schiener, IOTA co-founder and co-chairman of its board, told Reuters on Friday. "IOTA wants to enable interoperability with all these different players. So there is no Jaguar coin, no BMW coin, but one universal token for this machine economy," he added.

Top 11 Lego Technic cars to buy on Amazon in 2024

Mon, Jan 22 2024

Autoblog may receive a share from purchases made via links on this page. Pricing and availability are subject to change. I recently got a birthday wish list from my 11-year-old nephew, and I couldn't help but smile when I saw “Lego Technic Cars” at the top. Lego isnÂ’t a phase, itÂ’s a lifestyle. Once a Lego fan, always a Lego fan. In fact, IÂ’d be willing to bet that many of you reading this right now have some kind of Lego vehicle in a box somewhere, or better yet, on display in your home. While theyÂ’re not necessarily cheap, getting into building Lego Technic vehicles doesnÂ’t have to bankrupt you, either, unless you go for the $400 Lamborghini right off the bat. Here are 11 of our favorite Lego Technic vehicles on Amazon, right now, ranging from an affordable $35 all the way up to $450. LEGO Technic Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Ages 9+ (544 Pieces) - $39.99 (20% off) One of my first and favorite model cars growing up was a first-gen Ford Mustang GT350, so this GT500 for under $40 is right up my alley. At 544 pieces and made for ages 9 and up, the GT500 is a considerable step up from Grave Digger but a great starter to a Technic collection nonetheless. It isnÂ’t the most accurate-looking vehicle in this list, but the AR app and the fact that it can drive make it a worthwhile purchase. $39.99 at Amazon LEGO Technic Formula E Porsche 99X Electric Ages 9+ (422 Pieces) - $49.99 Not a Ford fan? Not a problem. This Formula E Porsche 99X is the same price and better looking than the GT500. Even though there are 122 fewer pieces in this Porsche set, it has a level of detail seen in much more expensive Technic sets including numerous decals and a pull back motor.  $49.99 at Amazon LEGO Technic Jeep Wrangler Ages 9+ (665 Pieces) - $54.99 This is the set I ended up going with for my nephew, not because I think it is the coolest, but because for the price, I think you get the most bang for your buck. 665 pieces is over 50% more than the comparatively priced Porsche 99X and it also scratches the nostalgia itch for me: The first-ever model vehicle I built was a yellow Jeep Wrangler Sahara. This Wrangler Rubicon has definitely had some aftermarket mods like the front winch, which makes it one of the coolest Technic sets under $60.  $54.99 at Amazon LEGO Technic Monster Jam Grave Digger Ages 7+ (212 Pieces) - $34.16 If ever there was a gateway Lego Technic, this Grave Digger is it.

Jaguar Land Rover to cut more U.K. jobs as it moves Discovery output to Slovakia

Mon, Jun 11 2018

LONDON — Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) is set to cut more jobs in Britain as it moves all production of its Discovery car to lower-cost Slovakia before building its new Range Rover at an English factory. Britain's biggest automaker, JLR has previously said its next-generation Discovery will be built at its Slovakia plant and on Monday announced there could be some job cuts in Britain as a result. "The potential losses of some agency employed staff in the UK is a tough one but forms part of our long-term manufacturing strategy as we transform our business globally," the company said in a statement. Moving production from Britain will slash several thousands of pounds off the cost per vehicle, the firm's Chief Finance Officer Ken Gregor said last year. The new Range Rover and Range Rover Sport will however be built at the firm's central English Solihull plant on an architecture which is designed to allow for diesel, petrol, electric and hybrid models to be produced. Monday's announcement comes after the firm said this year it will cut 1,000 jobs and reduce production at two of its English factories as demand for diesel cars slumps in the face of higher taxes and a regulatory crackdown. The firm has also blamed Brexit for hitting demand in Europe's second-largest autos market, where demand fell 6 percent last year, a source told Reuters in April. JLR said in January it would decide this year whether to build electric cars in its home market after announcing all of its new cars will be available in an electric or hybrid version from 2020. The company, owned by India's Tata Motors, builds nearly one in three of Britain's 1.7 millions cars but is producing its first electric vehicle, the I-Pace, in Austria. JLR's new factory in the Slovak city of Nitra is due to begin production by the end of the year and will have a capacity of up to 300,000 vehicles. It already employs 1,400 people there as it gears up to open. In Britain, the firm built just over 530,000 vehicles last year at three production facilities and also has a separate engine site and headquarters, employing roughly 40,000 people in total.
