1984 Land Rover Defender (D90). Very rare, trail ready D90. This D90 was shipped directly from the UK and is right hand drive. I have owned this vehicle for 4 years and have done a lot of work both mechanically and cosmetically. It is registered in California (paid through March 2015) as a diesel and requires no smog check. This D90 is equipped with a 200 Tdi motor and an automatic transmission. It is very easy and fun to drive on the road and especially off-road. This thing is a beast off-road, especially if you are a Land Rover lover and want the best!
Mechanically, the 200 Tdi runs great and sounds great. The radiator, water pump, thermostat, and hoses have been replaced. The fuel pump has been replaced and injectors cleaned. The automatic transmission was just rebuilt and has only 2k miles. The steering pump and all steering linkage has been replaced with tubing and hind joints for better articulation. All the brake cylinders were rebuilt. All mechanical work was done by Inland Rovers in Riverside, CA.
The exterior and interior are in great condition. It was painted blue before I got it and I would give the paint job a 7 out of 10 due to some brush marks. The hood is covered in diamond plate and looks awesome! The tires are 32" off road tires and knobby like BFG MT, including the full size spare. For vehicle protection out on the trail, this D90 has sliders, front and rear diff covers, and skid plates. The roof lights work but could be brighter. It is equipped with a Safari snorkel. It was installed before I purchased it but never connected to the engine. The under carriage has some surface rust but it is solid. (We all know these D90s have always had issues with rust.) The rear cross member has been replaced. I will be happy to take any pictures for anyone of the under carriage for serious buyers. Also, I have a rack and winch bumper that I have been storing that came with it when I bought it. I never put them on but will give them to you if you want them. Let me know if you want pictures.
The interior has custom aftermarket bucket seats. I just recently stripped the entire inside and rhino lined the inside of the cab from the windows down in the back and the floor in the front. It looks great! Installed new Exmoor trim seatbelts and new window regulators. I just installed a rear door cover from MUD UK and looks awesome! I also have an additional seat for the back but did not install it for more storage in the back for gear. I will give the chair to you in case you want to install it.
I have more pictures on Flickr. Please text me and I will send you the link. A very rare right hand drive diesel Defender registered in California. It doesn't get any better than this out in the trail and in California. Text or call (909) 518-7057 for questions or photos. I will accept cash or cashier check. The buyer will be responsible for any shipping of the vehicle. |

UK electric motor maker YASA expands production 50-fold for EVs
Thu, Feb 1 2018LONDON — British electric motor manufacturer YASA said on Thursday it was increasing its production capacity from 2,000 to 100,000 units with a new factory to tap into growing demand from carmakers for greener technologies. Automakers are racing to build greener vehicles and improve charge times in a bid to meet rising customer demand and air quality targets but Britain lacks sufficient manufacturing capacity, an area the government is building up. Last year, the government picked a site in central England to house a new automotive battery development facility, which will develop the processes required to manufacture the latest battery advancements. On Thursday, YASA, based near the English city of Oxford, said it had raised another 15 million pounds ($21 million) as part of its expansion. "Our customers are looking to adopt innovative new technologies such as YASA's axial-flux electric motors and controllers in order to meet the needs of the rapidly expanding hybrid and pure electric automotive market," said Chief Executive Chris Harris. The firm exports 80 percent of production and has worked with companies including Britain's two biggest carmakers Jaguar Land Rover and Nissan as well as Aston Martin. JLR will decide this year whether to build electric cars in its home market, previously citing factors such as pilot testing and support from science and government as pre-requisites.

Tesla layoffs, new safety mandates, and a bumper crop of V12s! | Autoblog Podcast #830
Fri, May 3 2024In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Associate Editor Byron Hurd for a gasoline-powered installment. They lead off by diving into the Tesla layoff news from this week before leaving electrification behind for a bit to talk about not one, but two production V12 unveilings. This isn't a drill, folks; Aston Martin and Ferrari are both committed. After that, they touch on the U.S. government announcement that it would mandate automatic emergency braking systems starting in 2029. They finish up the news segment with a chat about Fisker. Poor, poor Fisker. From there, it's on to the road tests. The Autoblog team has been testing out some EVs and both Byron and Greg had some thoughts to share, plus we get a final update from Byron on the long-term Subaru WRX and some notes from both drivers about the updated Range Rover Evoque. Send us your questions for the Mailbag and Spend My Money at: Podcast@Autoblog.com.

This Ford F-150 might have a Land Rover turbodiesel V6
Thu, Dec 17 2015Our spy photographers just caught this Ford F-150 driving around Dearborn, wearing camouflage around the bed – not so unusual near Ford's headquarters. What's interesting with this particular mule is that it might be packing a Jaguar-Land Rover turbodiesel V6. As with the Super Duty, the F-150 prototype pictured here sports a Venturi exhaust tip popping out the side of the rear bumper behind the wheel, which – along with the sound reported by our shutterbug – suggests that it's burning oil up front. That could mean Ford has found another application for the 3.2-liter, five-cylinder Power Stroke diesel that it just federalized for the Transit van. However our sources suggest what the mule is actually powered by the 3.0-liter Lion V6 diesel that Jaguar Land Rover – once subsidiaries in Ford's Premier Automotive Group – is bringing over for the Td6 models of the Range Rover and Range Rover Sport. The engine produces a respectable 254 horsepower and a healthy 443 pound-feet of torque, and is tipped to be mated to the same ten-speed automatic transmission as the new Raptor. That could give the F-150 the kind of fuel economy and muscle it would need to challenge the likes of the Ram 1500 EcoDiesel and the heavier-duty Nissan Titan with the Cummins engine. With gas prices as low as they are, however, and sales of diesel-powered vehicles lagging, Ford could just be trying to keep up with the competition by offering a light-duty diesel pickup. With its lightweight aluminum body, the diesel F-150 could even surpass the Duramax diesel-powered Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon for frugality at the pumps, according to Mark Williams of PickupTrucks.com. He told Autoblog that, "it makes perfect sense for Ford to do a diesel. It seems like everyone is pushing them to do a Ranger, but if they can get the F-150 to push 30 mpg it can challenge the Ram Ecodiesel and even the Colorado Duramax." Reached for comment, Ford spokesman Mike Levine sent us the following statement: "We do not speculate about future products. While diesel is a solution, it is not the solution. EcoBoost offers the ideal combination of performance and fuel economy that over 60 percent of F-150 customers are choosing."
