One of a kind rust free North American Spec '94 Land Rover Defender D90 with 120K miles, ZF automatic conversion and stock 3.9 V8. I have owned this truck since 07 and invested some $18K plus in the build. The rig was being built for extreme off-road but still has the ability to run down the highway at 70 and fit in most garages with top lights folded down or back. Body is in good condition with some minor scrapes at the back right quarter and a dent or ding here and there but is no way bashed. Nose has been sprayed with Rhino liner as has the interior tub area. Still missing some minor cosmetic things like body plugs, upper windshield trim strip, rear speakers and trims, but mechanically strong and sound. I have 2 small leaks - one from the t-case and one from the oil cooler lines. I will have both of these addressed before truck is purchased as I hate a leak of any kind like the next guy. If you are looking for a pristine stock D90 this is not the rig but for the money, it is a much more unique and capable rig. Truck does not have A/C but heater does work as do lights, radio, and wipers and top fully removes or bimi top can be left on. I equipped the truck with a pull out lockable tuffy storage box in the rear for secure transport of firearms, ammo, tools or spare parts. I also have the factory rear bench, high mount brake light bar and factory grille which are included. There is no rust on the frame though a few brackets attached to the frame show so rust. Pans, tub and bulk head in excellent shape as well.
Mods I haven't finished include spare tire mount, spacers for rear bumper-ettes, and installing a winch. The spare tire could be mounted to the V brace in the back with the addition of a single cross bar and lug plate leaving the tire to rest against the V bar itself or the addition of an overhead basket and additional of limb risers. Tire would be too tall to mount to the hood. Running the 37's in extreme travel situations allows for the rear tires to rub the bumper-ettes. They simply need to be spaced out another 2.5" back off the frame for tires to fully travel. The equipe bumper is great and ready for winch. I went with this bumper because of its extreme clearance and not necessarily for front end protection though the bar is very stout. I read others reviews on the bumper with some suffering body/panel damage. It functions exactly as I would have imagined, plowing saplings away from body and when approaching a crevice or boulder giving maximum approach vs other bumpers out there. Its like anything else when it comes to off-roading - driver ability, knowing your rig, and proper configuration of your equipment. A little extra clearance and travel is everything with a Land Rover.

Jaguar Land Rover in talks for Southern US factory
Mon, 20 Oct 2014Jaguar Land Rover is getting serious about global expansion, and that means it can't only build its vehicles in the UK anymore. The British automaker is cutting the ribbon at its new plant in China tomorrow, marking the opening of its first factory outside the UK. In 2016, it will open another factory in Brazil. But the latest intel has it that JLR is looking into a US factory, as well.
The report, which comes to us from the Sunday Times by way of Automotive News Europe, indicates that the company is evaluating locations for a North American factory, with options centering around Southern right-to-work states like South Carolina, where BMW operates its plant in Spartanburg and a wide array of other automotive operations are based as well. The JLR plant would reportedly ramp up to a capacity of 200,000 units per year.
In related news, while that new plant JLR is inaugurating in Changshu, China, is initially slated to produce the Range Rover Evoque, it is also expected to start building the new Discovery Sport as well - just like the Halewood plant in the UK that has handled Evoque assembly from the start and which just built its first Discovery Sport, 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 opens new engine plant in the UK
Thu, 30 Oct 2014The heads of Jaguar Land Rover are having a busy couple of weeks opening factories. Just days after inaugurating the company's first overseas plant in China, the automaker's new Engine Manufacturing Center in the UK is being inaugurated, as well. The plant near Wolverhampton, England, marks the first time in decades that JLR is building its own powerplants in-house. Further signaling the importance of this launch for the business, Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip were on hand and even tweeted about it.
The factory's first major project is to build JLR's latest Ingenium four-cylinders, starting with the 2.0-liter diesel version. "Our new Engine Manufacturing Centre is an important step in advancing the competitiveness and capability of the UK automotive sector. The production of in-house engines will support the expansion of the UK supply chain providing critical mass for inward investment," said Trevor Leeks, plant operations director in the automaker's announcement.
Opening the doors to the Engine Manufacturing Center has been years in the making for JLR. The plant was first announced in September 2011 and broke ground in June 2012. Building it cost the company 500 million pounds ($800 million) and created 1,400 new jobs. Of course, being a state-of-the-art factory, considerations were made to make the place as energy efficient as possible. That meant installing the UK's largest solar array with 21,000 panels to produce about 30 percent of the site's electricity needs.
