A very much sought after Defender with one of the very best Land Rover engines produced.

I genuinely do not know where to begin with this Defender..... You are looking at by far the very best 1997 left hand drive 110 defender available for sale in the world today!! This defender is entirely authentic in every way and absolutely stunning. The paintwork is original and so are the decals. Please study the pictures, there are very small blemishes in the paint however I would not re-paint this Defender as this removes it authenticity. By blemishes, I mean very very small, me being extremely harsh comparing this Defender to my own 2014 model. This Defender has a contrasting white roof which in my opinion is very iconic and extremely desirable. There is also a roof rack as you can see included within the sale. 

This Defender has spent many many years in a gorgeous beautiful warm climate and the chassis is superb, has never been welded, has no corrosion and is in impeccable condition. Again please study the pictures to see first hand just how beautiful the chassis is. Again, I could and would love to talk all day with regards to the condition however pictures really do speak for themselves.  

The Engine is in fine working order and has been fully serviced, there are no leaks, damage, nasty noises and so on! This Defender engine is not declared 'ran in' in terms of its mileage. I have included a picture of the engine from the very first day I returned to the UK in her just for you to see prior to the service and clean up just how great a condition this defender was in. 

Interior wise this Defender is equipped with 9 seats all trimmed in exceptional original genuine cloth! The seats have no damage, rips or tears and again please study the pictures... I do not need to say any more. Other than, you have original factory ice cold AC, gorgeous grey carpets, as new door cards and mouldings, just as you would expect form any vehicle with such low mileage that has genuinely been loved and cared for. 

I have priced this Defender very sensibly and am not looking for greedy figures often tried for by others. This Defender is priced to sell, shall not be around for long therefore get your offers in quick before an enthusiast or collector snap her up. Please, no silly offers. I am not wasting your time by offering you for sale this stunning Defender so in turn please do not waste mine. 

I have here in hand the UK V5 (title) service history, receipts, invoices and and a full UK MOT (yearly inspection certificate of road worthiness).

Shipping is included within the price to your chosen port of entry however importation duties and tax are not. These shall be payable by yourself upon entry and your importation Agent can advise and handle all of this for you, if you have not got an agent, do not panic, let me know and I shall happily send you details of the agents in Canada previous customers have used and also pass on details of our shipping parties. Should you also wish to speak with customers who have purchased and imported Defenders from myself then please ask. 

With regards to my 0 feedback, I am new to advertising on eBay and obviously being UK based I have had to set up a new account. Please do not let this put you off and again, take note of the above statement.

Jaguar to offer high-performance SVR models like Land Rover?

Tue, 01 Jul 2014

At the Goodwood Festival of Speed this past weekend, Land Rover previewed its upcoming performance version of the Range Rover Sport. Only instead of wearing the R-S badge that adorns the most hardcore of Jaguar models, the performance SUV from JLR's Special Operations unit introduced the letters SVR. And now, it seems that badge is here to stay.
Following the Range Rover Sport SVR, a new report from Motor Authority now says that Jaguar Land Rover will use those letters to distinguish the top-of-the-line performance models from both marques moving forward. As such, we might expect SVR models of the upcoming Jaguar XE compact sedan and Land Rover Discovery Sport, as well as potential new performance models based on the new F-Type and next-generation XF.
If accurate, the move would seem to separate Jaguar in particular from the R-S badge that has adorned performance models like the XFR-S and XKR-S. Both Audi and Porsche use the letters RS to distinguish its most hardcore models as well (e.g. Audi RS7 Sportback and Porsche 911 GT3 RS). Whether the similarity was a factor in shifting to the SVR moniker, we don't know, but either way, we welcome the arrival of a new generation of Jaguar and Land Rover performance models - especially if they pack the 575-horsepower version of the company's ubiquitous 5.0-liter supercharged V8. Not incidentally, that delicious powerplant gained a couple of new engine bays to call home at Goodwood as well - it's not just found in the forthcoming Range Rover Sport SVR, it's found a home in the F-Type Project 7, too.

Jaguar appoints Joe Eberhardt as North American President

Thu, 19 Dec 2013

Jaguar Land Rover North America has appointed a new president, Joachim Eberhardt. The German exec, 50, had previously done stints at Chrysler Group, DaimlerChrysler UK, Mercedes-Benz USA and Daimler-Benz.
Eberhardt joins JLR NA in a good, but challenging time for the company. It's fresh off the launch of the Range Rover Sport and Jaguar F-Type, which have been subject to rave reviews, and its overall sales are up 21 percent over 2012. Still, as Automotive News points out, the two manufacturers face a fight to become the equal of A-list competitors like BMW and Mercedes in the eyes of consumers.
"Joe brings a proven industry track record and valuable global leadership experience in luxury sales, service and marketing. We look forward to Joe leading our North American team in working with our retail networks to further grow the business and better serve our customers," JLR's group sales operations director, Andy Goss, said.

Jaguar Land Rover puts the freeze on wounded soldier-athletes [w/video]

Mon, 21 Jul 2014

For athletes, the cold is often a powerful ally in treating injures, with RICE (rest, ice, compression and elevation) a popular means of treating muscle pulls, bruising and other common forms of discomfort. Did you know, though, that frosty temps are also popular tools for simply recovering from a rough training session?
Well, we're guessing Jaguar Land Rover knew that, as the British company was kind enough to loan out its climactic testing chamber to Jaco van Gass and Luke Darlington, a pair of veterans wounded in their service to Queen and Country. Van Gass, a former private in the Royal Army, and Darlington, a Royal Marine, are attempting to earn a spot on the British Armed Forces cycling team for the upcoming Invictus Games.
The Games, inspired by the Warrior Games held in the United States, are a sporting competition reserved for injured servicemen and women, either active duty or veterans, and is slated to take place from September 10 to 14 in London's former Olympic venues. Van Gass lost his left arm below the elbow after getting hit by a rocket-propelled grenade (he also suffered from a collapsed lung, punctured internal organs, severe shrapnel and blast wounds, a broken tibia and a fractured knee). Darlington, meanwhile, suffered a traumatic brain injury during action in Afghanistan, and he now suffers from weakness in his right side and cognitive issues.
