Land Rover Series 3 Iii Military Style Convertible, Lhd With Fairey Overdrive on 2040-cars
Cambrils, Spain
Hi and welcome to my Auction for this 1976 Series 3, 2 and a quarter Diesel Military Land Rover replica. This car benefits from a brand new canvas soft top that can be removed completely or folded back to just behind the doors for a Truck cab look, new Desert storm yellow paint job excellent 10 seat capacity interior with the rear jump seats being fold able, nobody needs to get left out for the ride! It would make an excellent Hunting or Mountain Tour vehicle. Many new parts. New galvanized rear capping's and lights, new front lenses and new series 3 Grille and front light guards. New Lap belts in the front Freshly serviced and just passed it's government road test. Only 55,000 miles on the clock and drives like it too! A very tight Series 3 in all aspects. Freewheeling hubs. As you can see from the photos, the ladder frame chassis is in excellent original condition. With all the latest U.S. heightened checks on Defenders this is a major advantage as it is plain to see how original it is! This car will have no problems with the law upon entering the USA! The law for classic cars entering the U.S is that it must be over 25 years old. 37 is well over that! Left hand drive as well unlike UK cars! Being a Land Rover from Spain it is superb in it's originality. Spain is a hot, dry country for most days of the year and no harmful salt is used on the roads. A real killer of Land Rovers and Defenders from the UK and northern Europe. Many European Land Rover sellers are also re-fitting Land Rovers for sale to the U.S but these are being held up for longer due to increased vigilance over these vehicles. Don't be caught out! I track down only the best original cars and leave their key identity intact. Another advantage of coming from Spain is that they fitted their own interiors which are much more comfortable then the English cars. Everything else is the same standard Land Rover Series 3 as this was built in England (VIN plate is evidence of this) and then exported to the Land Rover Santana factory in Spain for finishing touches particular to the Spanish market such as the interior and different rear lights. This one has been put back to the proper Land Rover lights which is something I always do to my Vehicles. Many more photos here. Virtual test drive video here. The reliable diesel engine is non electronic (excellent Prepper vehicle!) and will run on just about any form of Diesel including Veg oil. I can arrange shipping to the States from Barcelona Port for $1900 on top of final purchase price. You are welcome to seek your own company if you can find cheaper. Remember this price is from Spain NOT the UK. If this is not what you want at this time i am constantly seeking out other vehicles. Please remember that this is a 37 year old classic car and as such there will be imperfections. It is not a 3 year old car! Please inspect the photos! We could have all the dings taken out but then we would be asking $20,000 like the others do! Overall for it's age a very straight original low miles car with the very desirable overdrive. I would also like to point you towards my 100% Feedback rating. all questions welcome, I am British so no language problems! If you message me you can skype if you prefer to talk on the phone. |

Jaguar Land Rover exploring 3D HUD and infotainment projections
Wed, Aug 21 2019With its most recent technology research, Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) is exploring the use of 3D projections for a world before and/or after autonomous vehicles come to fruition. In collaboration with the United Kingdom's University of Cambridge, JLR has developed concepts for a 3D head-up display that shows information on the road ahead and a system that projects personalized 3D infotainment for vehicle passengers. As of right now, hundreds of production vehicles are equipped with two-dimensional head-up displays, some color, others black and white. Using various techniques and different technologies, manufacturers display information in a flat image in front of a driver. Some might find it distracting or unhelpful to have this in the driver's line of sight, and JLR might have found a solution. Rather than wedge the information in between the person and the view ahead, a 3D system that uses augmented reality could display the info onto the road in front of the driver. JLR thinks the system could project navigation directions, safety alerts such as lane departure, hazard detection or other bits typically found in a car's infotainment or instrument cluster. Some might find this to be even more distracting that 2D head-up displays, but to each his or her own. While the 3D head-up display is something that could be used right now, if it were released and passed legal, part two of JLR's 3D technology research is imagined for a life where truly autonomous vehicles are skating across the country. Using head- and eye-tracking technology, the system could lock into the position of numerous people in a vehicle and give each of them a personalized 3D projection "screen." This could be used to track a trip, look up points of interest, or even watch movies. JLR points out this could be used during ride-sharing without bothering others in the vehicle. The work with the Center for Advanced Photonics and Electronics at Cambridge is still in development for now, but it's only a matter of time before 3D tech makes it into cars in some degree.
Jaguar F-Type SVR and Range Rover Evoque Convertibles go rainbow for Pride
Sat, Jun 29 2019BMW isn't the only automobile company getting involved in Pride Week, as Jaguar Land Rover announced it also has cars that will participate. And yes, they're convertibles with rainbow stripes. On Sunday, June 30, Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) will participate in the NYC Pride March with several themed vehicles and employees walking next to them. JLR chose two of its most intriguing vehicles in the Jaguar F-Type SVR convertible and the Range Rover Evoque Convertible. Jaguar unveiled two different F-Type SVRs, one in a gorgeous blue and the other in white. Both cars have the same detailing, though, including rainbow stripes on the the sides, rear bumpers, and hoods. The F-Types also have rainbow stripes across the tops of their windshields, and "JAG YOU ARE" decals across the windshields and rear bumpers. The silver Evoque is only slightly different. It, too, has rainbow stripes across its doors, rear bumper, and windshield. Rather than a "JAG YOU ARE" decal, however, "EVOQUE" is spread across the front bumper in rainbow lettering. You can check out these unique models at the Pride parade in NYC.
Recharge Wrap-up: Jaguar Land Rover talks EVs, Batteries should be modular
Wed, Sep 3 2014A new study out of Germany suggests adopting a modular approach to battery offerings in plug-in hybrid and extended range electric vehicles. Automakers could offer the same car with different battery sizes (and different costs, accordingly) to drivers depending on their driving ranges. This would optimize the total cost of ownership for various drivers better than the current approach. Developing a modular battery design and offering appropriate batteries for different customers "is the key for electric powertrains to meet customer expectations and become cost competitive against conventional technologies," according to the report from the Institute of Vehicle Concepts, German Aerospace Center. Learn more at Green Car Congress. Jaguar and Land Rover are looking to offer more electric driving from their vehicles. Wolfgang Ziebart, head of product development for Jaguar Land Rover, said in an interview that its hybrid system is being tweaked for more electric power and "downsized" combustion. He also said the likely target market for EVs would be second and third vehicles, rather than primary vehicles for urban driving. Within that market, Europeans look for something smaller, while American drivers lean toward larger luxury vehicles for their second car. Ziebart uses the Tesla Model S as an example of American tastes, and compares its size to that of the Jaguar XJ. Read more at Automotive News Europe. Thailand will likely approve a Volkswagen factory as early as next week. A German newspaper suggests that Thailand's Board of Investment is set to greenlight the plant, which is planned for a site near the Port of Bangkok. Thailand is a relatively large and growing auto manufacturing country, which seeks to be a major producer of eco-friendly vehicles. The country's "Eco2" program would provide incentives to Volkswagen if it builds clean cars and meets certain production targets. Read more at Reuters. Formula E has chosen Sky Deutschland for broadcasting rights in the German market. The deal includes television rights, as well as online broadcasting. Sky Deutschland has 3.8 million subscribers in Germany and Austria. Showing the races on Germany's largest pay television provider should help generate interest for the series, particularly the Berlin ePrix - the inaugural season's penultimate race - scheduled for May 30, 2015.
