FAQ'S
1) How Much Does Shipping To The USA Cost - Shipping to the East Coas (Brunswick, Charleston, Baltimore, New York etc) is $2100 USD and to the West is $2600
2) Will The Vehicle Pass US Customs Clearance - I have now exported over 50 Landrovers to the United States and have not had an issue with any of them. As long as the vehicle is over 25 years old and has the original engine and chassis with matching numbers on the VIN plate and UK title everything is guaranteed to be accepted. All my vehicles are checked by myself to ensure everything is correct.
3) Why Should I Buy One From Overseas And Not One Already In The USA - These Landrovers are very expensive in the USA. From me they will take 20-28 days to arrive but you will be getting your Landy at a significant saving.
4) Can You Help With The Shipping Process - Yes no problem at all, I can arrange everything. I have my own transport company who will deliver the vehicle to the UK docs. I have an account with Wallenius Wilhelmsen who handle all my shipping on a regular basis.
5) I Am Worried About Sending Money Overseas - Any transaction with myself is secure, confidential and safe. I am a registered trader and hold a business account in my name. I can provide proof of these for peace of mind along with contact details and addresses etc. I also have many testimonials from US customers whom I regularly supply
If you have any other concerns why not speak to me in person :-)

Hi and welcome to my advert for this original 1984 Landrover Defender 90 pickup truck in a green colour. The Landrover has covered a low 96,000 miles and has the 2.5 diesel engine which is linked to a 5 speed manual transmission. It is a permanent four wheel drive vehicle and has 5 months of the UK MOT yearly safety test remaining. This is an unrestored original that is ready to be used and appreciated.
The Landrover is very solid in all the usual weak areas. The bulkheas is in good shape as you can see from the images. Similarly, the door frames are in good shape along with the floor pans. There are many images of the chassis at the bottom of the listing so please take a look throught them. There are the usual odd little dings in the body but this is what these Landrovers are about. The paint is finished in green and it looks like it has been hand painted at some point. The finish is presentable but not of showroom quality which again in my opinion is how these Landrovers should be. The tyres are all good and they are of an off road nature.
The interior is in good condition. The 3 front seats that are finished in a leather/vinyl material are in good shape with no wear or rips at all. They are very comfortable yet supportive at the same time. The door cards are in good shape and are nicely secured to the doors. The dashboard is in good shape apart from in the middle where you can see where a stereo has once been. The roof is nice and clean. All seat belts work and the doors lock as they ought to. The wind windows all work without fault.
Mechanically the Landrover is superb and I cannot fault it. The engine has all been rebuilt recently and runs nice and quietly for a diesel. The engine itself is a 2.5 diesel which is couple to a 5 speed manual transmission. The Landrover will cruise up to 70 mph meaning that it can cope with Freeway driving if needed. The gearbox is excellent and is nice and quiet. The clutch etc are all good. There are no nasty noises and the truck drives very nicely indeed and is very fun to drive. The great thing about these Landrovers are along with being the best 4x4 in the World it will achieve 30 mpg upwards and better than this, it will put a smile on your face. The heaters all work as they ought to.

Jaguar Land Rover building new Special Vehicle Operations facility
Sun, 17 Aug 2014It'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.
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.
Ferrari exec to lead Jaguar North America
Tue, 06 Aug 2013Jaguar has announced that Jeff Curry will be serving as the brand's new North American vice president, effective August 13. The move is a coup for Jag, which lured Curry away from his previous posting as VP of marketing for Ferrari North America, and is further evidence of just how strong Jaguar's comeback has gotten.
Curry has spent over 20 years in the auto industry, and has worked with Audi, SiriusXM and Land Rover, where he made his start in the industry. His primary responsibilities with Jaguar will cover marketing communications, customer relationship management, and product planning.
Jaguar Land Rover's North American president, Andy Goss, heaped praise on the brand's newest addition saying, "Jeff brings with him extensive automotive and luxury marketing experience, critical expertise in leading-edge technologies and a personal passion for automobiles."
