Description: 

Don't risk your deposit on a vehicle that is based in the UK OR Canada and has not even cleared into this country yet.  A number of these vehicles have recently been refused entry due to their 'grey' status and non-allowed modifications.  Testament to this vehicle (and a number of these before from the same workshop), is that it has flown through the import process and is currently in New Jersey with a full clear New Jersey Title and available to serious offers, ready to be driven aaway today..!. This classified is for a FULLY RESTORED 1984 Land Rover Defender 110 200 TDI station wagon.

This land Rover Defender 110 started its lfe on 07 August 1984 as a Land Rover 110 (County Trim in Russet Brown) 2.5 Petrol unit.  It was sold to and despateched to Townley Cross South Africa and spent most of its life there, benefitting from a very dry climate.  In it's first 8 or so years it covered just 20,000 or so miles before the owner decided to upgrade the engine to a fantastic 200 TDi variant that Land Rover had just started shipping.  We are informed this was in about 1992.  The vehcicle comes complete with it's HERITAGE CERTIFICATE from the "British Motor Industry Heritage Trust" Motor Museam: Certificate Number; 2012/27885

This is an ORIGINAL LEFT HAND DRIVE, WITH ORIGINAL LEFT HAND DRIVE DASHBOARD.  Be careful - a number of vehicles currently advertised are RHD, meaning they are worth a whole lot less when you try and resell them, and you will have to drive on the wrong side with higher insurance premiums etc...!  Aside from benefitting from a complete rebuild in a professional workshop, the vehicle (as you can see in the photos) also benefits from a BRAND NEW Richards CHASSIS!!!!  Also on this chassis, it has an extra centre floor cross member especially for a Station Wagon 5 Door Model with the engine mounts in the right place for the 200 TDI engine.

The engine itself is a Very Low Mileage Unit -- 58,779 miles at present on the odometer with the engine being replaced at approx 20,000 miles, thats less than 2,000 miles per year since new for the vehicle..!

In short, this is totally Original Station Wagon 5 Door from new/the Land Rover factory.  The restoration has been very sympathetic to the vehicles history, keeping the interior as original as possible (it is in fantastic condition), but reaplcing everything that needed to be replaced and also adding sensible things like a winch..!

Jaguar CEO says people just don't want EVs right now

Mon, Jun 22 2015

"Customers are not impressed with it currently." These are the words of one Ralf Speth, CEO of Jaguar Land Rover, spoke at the Automotive News Europe Congress in Birmingham, England. The "it" Speth is referring to is battery technology, which he characterized as "too heavy, too expensive," and with power density that's "too low." That all could go some way towards explaining why the British automaker has yet to bring an electric vehicle to market, why it killed the C-X75 hybrid-turbine supercar project, and why it only recently started offering hybrid versions of its Range Rover models (and has yet to offer them in the United States). That doesn't mean the company won't pursue electric propulsion in the future, though. According to Automotive News Europe, Speth forecasts that "the next generation of batteries will be higher density, lower weight and the cost will come down." What he didn't say, exactly, is when he expects that next generation of battery tech to come around – or when JLR will start to more closely embrace electric propulsion. In the meantime, Jaguar Land Rover will continue investing in research and development. Since Tata acquired the brands from Ford seven years ago, JLR has quadrupled its R&D budget and doubled the number of engineers on staff. Related Video:

Tata to get Jaguar and Land Rover tech, platforms too?

Tue, 22 Jul 2014

Since buying Jaguar Land Rover, Indian automaker Tata has generally left its luxury arm's platforms and technology alone. However, those days might be gone. The two of them are gradually growing closer with coordinated development and rumors of shared platforms. And it looks like all of that work and money is finally going to pay off with an actual vehicle in the near future.
According to Australian website Drive, Tata wants to make its cars more attractive to buyers outside of India, and to do that the company knows it must improve quality. The Indian company is being careful, though, because it doesn't want to dilute the Jaguar or Land Rover brands with cheap models. "You're going to see in the future a lot of sharing of technologies and platforms over time, but you won't see a JLR with a Tata badge on it," said Darren Bowler, managing director of Tata's Australian distributor, to Drive.
According to Bowler, these future vehicles are already on the way. Tata and JLR have a global platform in the works for 2017 that both companies could use for cars or crossovers. He also hinted that Jaguar's new Ingenium engines could be shared among the brands in the future, too.

Jaguar Land Rover reportedly developing Road Rover car

Tue, Sep 26 2017

Reports are circulating in the automotive media that Jaguar Land Rover is developing a vehicle that's not an SUV. Called the Road Rover, it would be an all-electric luxury car with "some" all-terrain capability, hinting at all wheel drive. Initially, the EV would launch in late 2019, then spawn more models to complete the lineup. There is also talk about JLR's interest in an outright purchase of an existing luxury car brand to join its portfolio, and that parent company Tata has already given this strategic move the green light. Tata has also reportedly made moves to protect its JLR ownership via acquiring more of its own stock. All this excitement brings to mind the fact that there once existed an actual Road Rover — the Rover brand. Having evolved into MG Rover before going into administration in 2005 and subsequently reborn in China under SAIC Motor ownership, Rover was a moderately posh British carmaker just beneath the level of prestige that Jaguar offered. For some years, both were part of the same corporation. The last Rover saloons were designed and built with BMW input, and at that point Land Rover had already become part of Ford, almost a decade after Jaguar did. Ford's tenure with Land Rover lasted from 2000 to 2008, when Tata bought the British brand — along with the Rover name. Would it just make sense to badge the road car Rover, with no Road or Land affixed to it? Rover's slovenly demise is more than a decade old now, but there's plenty of valuable history still embedded in the long-shelved Viking ship logo. Cast aside memories of Sterling-badged Honda Legend platform siblings and unattractively Federalized SD1 series cars, and take whatever good the 1999-2005 Rover 75 brought to the table — maybe it's time for Rover to be reborn in the current Jaguar Land Rover family. According to Autocar, the first Road Rover would be developed in tandem with the next-generation Jaguar XJ, so they would share an aluminum architecture suitable for both internal combustion engines and battery electric technology, depending of the model. If anything, there is delicious irony to this: The 1980s XJ generation that Jaguar spent decades developing was claimed to be engineered in such a way that the occasional stablemate Rover's Buick-derived 3,5-liter V8 wouldn't have fit in its engine bay — to preserve the Jaguar bloodline. To have the new XJ and a Rover cross paths again would only be fitting. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.
