1997 Land Rover Defender 90 - 4.0 Liter V8 Automatic 68,000 miles (mileage is actual at 67,950 currently but i will continue to drive until sold)
I purchased this beast about 3 months ago and have always wanted one and frankly don't want to get rid of it but we need something a tad bigger for somethings that have transpired. This is not a distress sale and I would love to keep it but hard to justify having a $50k SUV as a 3rd car...I could justify it but my finance director says no! :)...With this said, the vehicle is great around town and highway driving. Will run down the highway at 90 and will go anywhere! Full time 4WD and locking diff affords the new owner with pulling a house down or going just about anywhere. I have only put about 2000 miles on it and I believe I am the 3rd owner (pretty sure from what I found). 

Any puddles you see in pics are from me washing prior to picture taking. Few leaks here and there but nothing out of the ordinary for this vehicle. 

Replaced the front steering damper when I purchased because the steering was a bit sloppy and had a compete run through performed. Had an oil change completed and went on my way. It does have about a 3 inch crack in windshield and with a full price purchase I will replace windshield...love Colorado weather!

This is not a concours Defender but it IS an everyday get in and drive it vehicle that will turn heads anywhere you go. So, with that said this is a dying bread of vehicle. Only about 5000 have survived their import into the states between 94, 95 and 97! And, the new Land Rover has announced that after 2015 the Defender 90 will NO longer be produced. 

Items that differentiate this Defender from the others around:
-Factory installed removable hard top - These tops were installed when the Rover hit port. Came over as a soft top and hit the market as a removable hard top
-Rovers North soft top ($2199)
-Factory air conditioning 
-Heated seats
-Kenwood stereo w/ bluetooth and ipod usb connection
-Rear bench seat
-Biometric safe bolted in
-Front large Hella driving lights
-Rear utility lights
-Extra wheel caps
-BF Goodrich with 85-90% left

SHIPPING WILL BE THE SOLE RESPONSIBILITY OF BUYER. I will make every effort to coordinate with the pickup provider. 

For reference I did finance the vehicle but my local credit union has assured me that they can turnaround the title upon the check/money clearing. With this said if you are looking to finance look to your local credit union they were great to work with and valued the vehicle appropriately to be able to finance.

If you are local or want to come see it before you buy it...email me and I will be glad to show it. 

I am willing to discuss the price for reasonable fair offers. I have priced it fair and reasonable and would expect your offer to be the same. 

Thank you for looking and I will not deal overseas nor for your son who is on a oil rig in Dubai...no misleading here and I will expect the same from who I do business with as well. 

Let me know if you have any questions. 

Joe

Jaguar crossover won't be based on Evoque or have off-road chops

Wed, 21 Aug 2013

Jaguar's long-rumored crossover won't be built on the same platform as the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque, says the Australian site Car Advice. The future of the new CUV remains uncertain, but if Jaguar does dip its toes into the SUV/crossover pool, though, the new vehicle will likely be a car-based soft roader, lacking (or perhaps more appropriately, not needing) the off-road-engineered chops inherent in Land Rover's small CUV platform.
Jaguar product planner Steven De Ploey explained to Car Advice, "There's many groups around the world [platform sharing] - obviously Volkswagen Group is doing it all the time - but I think we have to be careful. He added, "Jaguar is something quite different... It's about capability, but very much on-road focused capability." That seems to gel with our suspicions that the XQ, as it's expected to be called, will share its platform with an upcoming small Jaguar sedan, the oft-rumored X-Type successor.
Still, we'd recommend taking any mention of a Jaguar crossover with a grain of salt. Based on many of the (quite compelling) statements made by De Ploey against a Jag crossover and previous statements made by Jag's design boss, Ian Callum, the case against a leaper-bearing crossover seems strong. If a high-rider were to arrive from Jaguar, though, the article insinuates that it'd be more in line with the BMW X6 or upcoming X4 - sort of a coupe-based crossover. Like we said, grain of salt. If a Jag crossover is going to arrive soon, the upcoming Frankfurt Motor Show is the most likely locale for its debut. We'll find out in a few weeks.

Jaguar and Land Rover to consolidate dealerships

Thu, 29 Nov 2012

Jaguar 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.

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.
