Low Mileage (<65.5 k) 1995 North American Specification (NAS) Land Rover D90 Defender - Perfect Nantucket or Martha's Vineyard vehicle
Was in a minor right front accident in 2000 and repaired with OEM Land Rover parts - I have pictures and invoices from that time. The truck then sat in a warehouse for about 12 years until i purchased it. I had it re- certified as rebuilt in Mass. and it currently is registered on a Rebuilt title. I extensively refreshed the truck including, but not limited to new brakes (rotors, calipers, pads), tires, new plugs, wires, filters and all fluids, 6 new Exmor seats (4 jump seat in the back) seat belts, new floor mats in front and in the back seating area. I am sure i am missing an number of investments i made. There was no exterior or frame rust, but the body was stripped, capping was replaced, properly primed and painted. Everything works except the Air Conditioning. There was no intent to make the vehicle perfect and it is not. I personally wanted a little "patina" . There is a little rust on the inside door bottoms and some surface rust on the some of the white metal parts from sitting around It has the original removable door windows and a Surrey Top. It does not have a full roof as I store it in a garage and only drive it around the beach town we live in. There is a little rust in the inside door bottoms and some surface rust on some of the white metal parts. We are downsizing houses, and loosing garage space in the new house. I also have a 16 year old boy who needs a vehicle so i would trade for your four door Jeep or VW GTI. Happy to answer all questions |

Jaguar Land Rover and Chery investing in Chinese plant
Sat, 24 Nov 2012While the European auto market for Jaguar and Land Rover is waning, Chinese car buyers can't get enough of the British marques. To meet that demand, Tata Motors, parent company of Jag and Land Rover, is partnering with Chinese automaker Chery Automobile Co.
The two announced plans to invest $1.75 billion to build a new plant and create a new, China-focused brand. 2014 is the target for completion of the factory. Jaguars and Land Rovers built at the facility will be the first ever produced outside the UK according to the Associated Press. The JV will be called Chery Jaguar Land Rover Automotive Company Ltd.
The announcement comes less than a month after JLR announced it would open a design studio in China. It's not clear from the reports whether the two announcements are part of the same JV or two separate plans.
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.
Ford's J Mays feels vindicated by Fusion reception
Tue, 25 Sep 2012It's hard to think back now, but the same man overseeing the design of the 2013 Ford Fusion also presided over a rather lackluster period in Ford design, highlighted by vehicles like the Five Hundred and Freestyle. With the redesigned Fusion receiving high praise, J Mays tells Automotive News that he feels vindicated from criticisms suggesting he's not a daring enough designer.
When Mays took over as lead of design in 1997, he admits to having quite an ego ("My head would barely fit through the door some days. I've long since gotten over myself") and the workload to match. With the Blue Oval's portfolio full of premium brands like Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo at that point, along with the bread-and-butter Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models, Mays certainly had quite the challenge.
It was in the mid-2000s that Mays took over just the premium brands, and took on the new title of Chief Creative Officer. At the time, Mays endured some criticism for looking backwards to retro styling, rather than setting a new standard for American car design - criticism that Mays says he is free from with the all-new Fusion.
