1984 Land Rover 110 V8 *** Lhd *** on 2040-cars

Year:1980 Mileage:87000

 First : I have never sold or bought before through ebay, so you will not find any review under my name. Sorry, cannot do anything about that before I make the first sale. You can contact me by email or phone and decide wetter you can trust me :)

Second: this listing is for a 1984 Land Rover Defender. Ebay doesn't recognize VIN numbers for import cars after 1981 so I listed it as a 1980


Ok, this listing is for a very nice and original Defender 110 Left Hand Drive. THis car is imported from the Netherlands earlier this year and past customs inspection without a problem.

(I imported it together with two 110 Diesel, LHD, contact me for these if you are interested)

This might be one of the best, original cars for sale in the US right now. Look at the pictures. I tried to attach pictures with all the areas which are normally a problem for Defenders like bulkhead, foot wells,  frame and door frames.


The good:

- appr 75,000 miles. I have no evidence for this, there is no service history but given the condition of this car I believe this to be accurate.

- nice running V8 engine, easy starter, runs smooth, plenty of power.

- all original paint, except left wing which has been sprayed. Very professional but missing the county striping

- interior very nice, no missing peaces, headliner nice, seats not ripped, carpet in load area all factory original. Only front mat are replaced by rubber mats.

- frame, in very good condition, NO rust !!! NO welding and NO welding needed. !!!! I have had many Defenders but never saw a frame like this.

- doorframes, very good NO rust

- body, no aluminum oxidation. nowhere.

- BF Goodrich tires less then 500 Kmiles, spare is new

- one year old, original Land Rover alloys.


Needs attention:

- 2nd gear grinds sometimes when shifting back from 3 to 2 at higher speed. Easy to drive with, just don't want to have discussion about it.

- power steering is leaking a little. Never had to fill it up so far but there is a little oil under there when parked overnight.


If you want to buy a 110 Defender you should check this one out for sure. Beside the very high priced restored ones, you will have a hard time finding one in this condition.

I am close to Grand Rapids airport and can pick serious buyers up from there. You can then also check out one of my other Defenders.


Car comes with all documents to obtain a title in your state. Please check yourself though for CA, I have heard it is difficult or not possible  to get a title for imports over thers.

Mazda CX-5 named Japan's Car of The Year, Subaru BR-Z wins "Special Award"

Mon, 03 Dec 2012

The Mazda CX-5 stamped its Kodo design and SkyActiv technology authority all over the Japan Car of the Year awards, taking the top prize ahead of the Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT 86. It is Mazda's second victory in the last ten years, the 2005 MX-5 claiming the same trophy, and the fourth time the Hiroshima company has won.
The award is decided by 60 local "automotive experts and journalists," and open to any passenger car released in Japan from November 1, 2011 to October 31, 2012 that has sold more than 500 units. Each judge gets 25 votes, his or her top vote getting 10 points, the rest of the points being spread among the judge's choice for the next best four cars.
The second-place getters were the Toyobaru twins with 318 votes, the surprise being they didn't beat or get any closer to the crossover. The Subaru BRZ did claw some mojo back, earning the Special Award given to cars that have made "an exceptional impact." The BMW 3 Series was third overall and won the Import Car of the Year award with plenty of room between it and the second place Range Rover Evoque.

Is Jaguar's 3 Series-fighter the brand's last chance?

Wed, 16 Oct 2013

The upcoming line of compact 3 Series-fighters from Jaguar, often referred to as the Jaguar XS, could consist of a sedan, wagon and possibly a coupe and GT model (think BMW 5 Series GT). The car's all-aluminum architecture also will provide the basis for two new sports utility vehicles. Just how important is the much-touted "baby Jag" project to parent company Jaguar Land Rover? A JLR executive reportedly says the brand's survival is directly linked to the success of the XS, codenamed X760, Autocar reports.
The brand's survival is directly linked to the success of the XS.
"If the X760 fails, it will probably be the end for the [Jaguar] brand," the executive says. But Adrian Hallmark, Jaguar's global brand director, claims Jaguar will "build the most advanced, most efficient, most refined car in that [compact luxury sedan] segment. Not almost as good as, but better than the best in the world."

Jaguar Land Rover building new Special Vehicle Operations facility

Sun, 17 Aug 2014

It's only been a couple of months since Jaguar Land Rover announced the formation of its new Special Operations division, and we've already seen a number of vehicles to come out of it. But now the British automaker has announced a new facility that will house its elite skunkworks department.
Set to be built at Prologis Park in Ryton, England, on the outskirts of Coventry, the new Special Vehicle Operations Technical Centre will encompass dedicated production lines, F1-style flexible workshops, a dedicated paint studio and VIP suite for commissioning bespoke projects. JLR will spend some $33 million on the facility that will be home to 150 specialists - 100 of them being new hires.
The first project which the Special Operations division is working on is the F-Type Project 7, but we've already seen more projects in the pipeline - including the upcoming Range Rover Sport SVR - and you can bet there'll be more. The revival of the Lightweight E-Type also falls under Special Operations, but is undertaken by the Jaguar Heritage department located nearby at Browns Lane.
