This is a nice example of a X-MOD Defender 110. It is a left hand drive, 2.5 na diesel with 5 speed trans. It has its original chassis , and engine configuration , is 27 years old and was imported legally and properly. It has only 48k kilometers,which is 30,256 miles and has just begun its life. It was first put in to service on 5/08/1986.. Ebay does not recognize these older vins and I had to put 1980 as the model year in the listing. It is actually a 1986. was imported legally and will come with import paperwork and a clean, clear Florida title. This example was part of the "Tithonus Project". This was a program to extend the service life of the service's Defenders. Only the best ones were selected and then totally refurbished in 2007-2008 at massive expense. In addtion to refurbishing the mechanicals and giving them a new NATO Green Respray, they received lots of upgrades. New premium Exmoor "Outlast" front seats, insulated matting system, heavy duty "Wolf" rear bench seats, full OEM Safety Devices Roll Cages, hard tops, "Wolf " heavy Duty Wheels, and new Michelin XZL Tires. These items make this Defender far superior in safety and comfort that other X-MOD Defenders and a fantastic value. The roll cage alone would cost approx. $5k to have installed and could save your life in the event of a rollover. This example is also referred to as a "FFR", which stands for , fitted for radio. These radio equipped vehicles are also in far better shape than the standard, "General Service" units. They led a fairly easy life. Please do not confuse this Tithonus with the normal worn out and beat up X-Mod Defenders that are offered for what seems like a bargain price. There is a reason they are cheap. This truck is also equipped with 2 alternators, a 12 volt and 24 volt . The second one can be easily removed if desired. This truck is ready to go anywhere. Being an X-Military vehicle, it is a very simple , easy to maintain , spartan truck. There are no ammenities what so ever! No a/c, no power anything, no stereo,etc,etc. The diesel is Land Rover's legendary 2.5 litre ,normally aspirated, mechanically injected , super simple and reliable engine. It can run on bio diesel,etc. It runs,drives,and stops as it should, and is ready for a whole new life here in civilian hands. This vehicle has great history and great bones. It is nice inside out . It also lends itself to all kinds of addditions,mods, etc. There is a whole world of parts and accessories available. You can convert it to a soft top, add power steering, change the color, tires,wheels, add a winch, a snorkel, offroad lights, suspension lifts, etc. We have a full service shop that specializes in Land Rovers and can perform almost any work you desire. The hard top is easily removeable for open air cruising. I have included a photo of another one of my Tithonus 110s with the top removed to show how cool they look that way. Vehicle is sold as is, and inspections are welcome, by appoinment. We offer courtesy airport pick up and can arrange nationwide , professional shipping at dealer rates. This vehicle is not for eveyone, but will not dissapoint the buyer that is looking for such a vehicle. Questions are also welcome. Land Rovers are my passion and I have been selling them exclusively for fifteen years and have sold over eighteen hundred of them. My cell is 954-816-8885. Regards,Ken. |

Jaguar Land Rover considering Mexican plant
Mon, Apr 27 2015Jaguar Land Rover has been expanding its production out of the UK and into overseas markets, and according to the latest word from Bloomberg, the British automaker is considering spending more than half a billion dollars to build a new assembly plant somewhere in Mexico. Since the Range Rover Sport and Evoque are two of the company's top sellers in the US, those would reportedly be the most likely to be manufactured at the Mexican plant, although Jaguars could follow as well. The automaker was previously said to be leaning towards a location in the Southern US, and while it could conceivably proceed with plans for both, it would be more likely to go with one or the other. State and local authorities below the Mason-Dixon line have been soliciting the business with various incentives, but lower labor costs South of the Border could prove more attractive to JLR and its parent company Tata. It wouldn't be the first, after all. Over the past month alone, General Motors committed to building the next Chevy Cruze in Mexico, Toyota did the same with the Corolla, Hyundai was reported to be considering a similar step, and Ford announced two new plants in the country amounting to a $2.5-billion investment. Luxury automakers like Audi, BMW and Mercedes have also been delving into Mexican production as well, blazing a path that JLR could potentially follow. The British automaker recently opened a plant in China and another in Brazil, while investing in additional facilities in the UK as well.
Jaguar Land Rover opens winter testing facility in Minnesota
Wed, 12 Dec 2012As it begins the rollout of the all-wheel-drive Jaguar XJ and XF models, Jaguar Land Rover has just announced that it has opened a new facility in northern Minnesota for winter testing. Located in International Falls, MN (on the US and Canadian border), the British automaker says it is one of the coldest locations in the Continental US. Jaguar's new Instinctive All Wheel Drive system was developed primarily to help sell more cars in the northern US, so it only makes sense to open a testing area in the US as well.
With temperatures that can drop to minus 55 degrees Fahrenheit, International Falls was chosen to mimic some of the worst weather a Jaguar or Land Rover will ever see. The grounds house testing chambers, various road surfaces and even a frozen lake. This new facility complements the hot-weather testing grounds in Phoenix, AZ.
The official press release is posted below.
Jaguar Land Rover data leak reveals employee records, upcoming layoffs
Fri, May 25 2018A massive data leak has revealed the personnel files of hundreds of employees at Jaguar Land Rover's factory in Solihull, England. The documents reveal details such as sick days used, disciplinary issues and — most notably — red lines indicating potential firings in the weeks or months ahead. In total, the personal records of more than 600 workers were released. JLR is scrambling to contain the crisis. The breach was first reported by the Huffington Post UK, with the automaker initially claiming the story was "fake news." That publicity gaff certainly didn't help matters, especially for employees staring at their name with a red line slashed across it. Last month, the British automaker had said it would be eliminating roughly 1,000 employees at factories in the U.K. The Solihull plant, which produces models like the Range Rover, Range Rover Sport, Jaguar F-Pace and Jaguar XE, was among those mentioned in the statement. JLR, which is owned by the Indian conglomerate Tata Motors, is facing a steep drop in sales, particularly in its home market. The main culprits include a huge slump in sales of diesel-powered vehicles - a vital part of JLR's business in the U.K. and throughout Europe - along with fears about how the upcoming "Brexit" will affect business operations. In the HuffPost UK story, one worker called the situation "disgusting" and "embarrassing," adding that people at the factory now know whether they, or their colleagues, are soon due to lose their job.
