For sale is my NAS Defender 110, #469/500. Alpine white over gray cloth interior. The truck has approximately 7k miles on the odometer. A little history on this truck: #469 has been sold several times now by Copley Motorcars of Needham, MA. The first time they sold the truck was in approximately 2005. At that time it was a clean, lower mileage, stock NAS 110. That owner proceeded to heavily modify the truck. The 3.9 V8 and five speed transmission were removed. In its place was installed a brand new 4.6 V8 with four speed automatic transmission. Additionally, the truck was prepared for off-road use. A heavy-duty ARB bumper was installed with high-lift jack and mounts, as was a Warn 9000 winch, and limb risers. Southdown underbody protection was installed along with rock sliders, and a Mantec snorkel. Other off-road accessories include a Garmin satellite GPS system, CB radio, ARB air compressor (under the passenger seat), and six Hella Rallye lights with rear work light were also installed. Additional upgrades to the interior include full Badger Coachworks seat covers for all seating surfaces. I’m assuming the headliner was replaced as it is in excellent condition. All four doors were replaced and upgraded hinges were installed. The external roll cage and rack were removed and painted black. This owner put approximately 8k miles on the truck and traded it back in to Copley Motorcars. The next owner purchased it from Copley in 2007, parked it in front of his barn, and put 900 miles on it in six years. It was traded back in to Copley and I purchased it in August of this year. As one can imagine, a lot deteriorates when a car is left outside to sit for six years. The paint had turned to chalk, the bulkhead rotted, and the door sills are rough. Surprising, the frame is solid as is the rear cross-member. *HERE IS A LINK TO MANY MORE PICTURES, INCLUDING THE ROUGH SPOTS* What I’ve done: Since I purchased the car, I have thoroughly gone over the vehicle to make it a reliable driver. Initially, I went through the cooling system and replaced the radiator, fan clutch, water pump, and thermostat. The car was then serviced and fluids and filters were changed, and drive belts replaced. The ignition system was gone over and the plugs, cap, rotor, and coil were replaced. Additionally, the throttle position sensor and idle air control valve were replaced. As the car was an automatic conversion, I then performed a procedure to ensure the ECU knew that it now had an automatic installed. The oil cooler lines are new and the fuel level sending unit was replaced. All five tires were just replaced with BF Goodrich Mud Terrains. Additionally, the brakes needed to overhauled. The front pads, rotors, calipers, hoses, and lines were replaced. Additionally, the brake booster and master cylinder were replaced as well. At the rear, the wheel cylinders and shoes were replaced. The drums were in good condition. Cosmetically, the car is somewhat challenged. As I mentioned, the upper portion of the bulkhead it shot, and the door sills are rotted. The paint was thoroughly polished and has turned out quite nicely (very good shine, not faded or thin). The floors are good and the frame is solid and in good condition. The paint on the rear cross-member is bad but it is solid as well. The roll cage is rusted where it attaches to the body. I would recommend addressing this when the bulkhead is replaced. Also, some of the body caps are rusted where they run behind the roll cage. The interior is in very good condition. As previously stated, all seating services are covered by Badger Coachworks seat covers. Therefore, the seats are in good shape. The headliner does not have any sag. The dash is in good shape (no splits or cracks). The center console was replaced when the automatic was installed and is therefore in excellent condition. Accessories and gauges: Gauges function except for the fuel gauge. Though I've replaced the fuel level sending unit, the gauge, when the car is running, does not read accurately. However, when the key is turned to the #2 position, the gauge does read properly. Therefore, I've decided not to further pursue this problem. All interior and exterior lighting are functional. The GPS, winch, and ARB compressor are functional. The HVAC system is in good shape. The heat blows hot, air cold, and blower functions on all speeds. The heater control cable is broken. As such, one must manually open or close the valve at the top of the heater box under the hood. Overall, this truck represents a good opportunity to get into exclusive NAS 110 ownership without the six figure price tag. This truck is well sorted and can be used on and off the road reliably, as is. However, if one wanted to invest in the bulkhead, roll cage, door sills, and body cappings, they would have a very high quality truck that would be well worth the improvements, and then some. Your bid is a what you feel comfortable owning this truck for. It is not an opportunity to inspect it. Please do not contact me asking what I will end the auction for. Inspections are welcome prior to auction end. Please make sure all questions are answered satisfactorily prior to bidding. |

Land Rover planning SVX hardcore off-roaders
Sun, May 3 2015The new Special Vehicle Operations division at Jaguar Land Rover has already given us an array of ultimate wheeled creations, but it isn't quite done yet. Next, according to Car and Driver, will be a new line of SVX models. Not to be confused with the Subaru coupe from the 1990s (which also had all-wheel drive, come to think of it), Land Rover's SVX models will be hardcore off-roaders. Details are few and far between at the moment, but they're said to take inspiration from rough-terrain events like the Dakar Rally and Camel Trophy as inspiration – different from the Ford F-150 Raptor that takes its cues from the Baja 1000. Last we heard, Land Rover was planning a hardcore Defender to send the model off to pasture in high-performance style, and considering an extreme Range Rover as well. If either of those rumors materialize, they look like they'd be prime candidates for the SVX line. JLR Special Vehicle Operations has already showcased what it can do with the high-performance Range Rover Sport SVR, the luxed-up Range Rover SVAutobiography, the exclusive F-Type Project 7 and the continuation classic Lightweight E-Type. C/D confirms that further SVR models are in store to replace Jaguar's R-S performance models, while the SVX line would likely remain exclusive to Land Rover.
Jaguar Land Rover to recall 44,000 vehicles over excessive diesel emissions
Thu, Mar 14 2019Jaguar Land Rover is recalling 44,000 vehicles in the U.K. due to some of its vehicles emitting higher CO2 emissions than were officially stated. The recall is said to affect vehicles equipped with JLR's 2.0-liter diesel engine in cars built between 2014 and 2018. Quite a few models are affected, including the Jaguar XE, XF, E-Pace, F-Pace, along with the Land Rover Discovery Sport, Range Rover Evoque, Range Rover Velar and Range Rover Sport. The excessive CO2 emissions were discovered by the British vehicle certification agency, who then reported it to JLR. The company is reportedly working on a fix that will satisfy the agency and bring the cars back in line with their stated CO2 emissions. As of now, JLR is not saying what the fix will entail. A statement from JLR reads: "The modifications will be made free of charge, and every effort will be made to minimize inconvenience to the customer." The U.K. magazine Which? said JLR told them owners might experience minor changes to the "overall vehicle experience." Reading between the lines there, that sounds like there could be some pretty serious tampering with the engine software, but we'll leave the speculation to a minimum for now. CO2 emissions numbers are used in the U.K. to set tax levels for vehicles, which means JLR could have gotten out of some taxation with its artificially low CO2 numbers. At this point we don't know how badly the numbers are off, so it's impossible to know how egregious the mislabeling is. There also isn't any explanation for why the CO2 numbers are off, but this is all information that could be forthcoming. The 44,000 number could rise, too, because the UK vehicle standards agency says that some gasoline models could also be involved. That would open a whole new can of worms for JLR. Some Jaguar vehicles (XE, XF and F-Pace) offer a 2.0-liter diesel option for the U.S., but Land Rover's only diesel it sells here now is the 3.0-liter V6. For the time being there's no recall out on the diesel or gas engines from JLR in the U.S. There's no chatter surrounding emissions cheat devices like those involved with Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal. Nor does the scale of whatever the problem is come anywhere near the amount of Volkswagen diesels that needed to be recalled or taken off the roads. We'll be keeping tabs on the situation to see if this expands any further than the U.K. Green Recalls Jaguar Land Rover SUV Diesel Vehicles Luxury Sedan
Jaguar and Land Rover to consolidate dealerships
Thu, 29 Nov 2012Jaguar and Land Rover are set to merge their sales facilities, according to Inside Line. Jaguar Land Rover North America President Andy Gross says 45 percent of Jaguar owners also have an SUV in their stable, so it makes sense to give customers as much exposure to the cat's high-riding cousins and possible. The number of overall outlets will remain the same, and the brands will reportedly remain separate on the showroom floor, however.
So far, just one dealer has made the move to combine under the roof of one 68,000 square-foot facility in Paramus, New Jersey (above), though a further 20 are ready to make the shift and become Jaguar Land Rover outlets. Gross believes the shift is necessary so that his company's dealer network will accurately reflect the company's products. We'll see how cozy the brands are when Jaguar starts rolling out its own SUVs in a few years.
