"LOW RESERVE" for a vehicle with all of this work, considerably less than some of the ones currently advertised on here. Shoot me an offer, I might take it.. I am not an importer/exporter or dealer. I hand picked this vehicle after several years of looking at vehicles in the UK. For sale is my XMOD 1986 Land Rover 90 "Defender", Date in service October 16, 1986, vehicle spent all of its life in Cyprus before disposal in the UK in 2011. I am the 2nd owner after release from the military. The previous owner hand picked this one from Witham's and had work done to it before I purchased it, the only reason he sold is because he picked up a Wolf and didn't need two Landy's. Vehicle was used in a cross country trip by me from the UK to Romania, where she has been for the last 1.5 years, averaged around 28mpg at 60mph. Only reason I am selling is I am staying abroad a few more years and I am going to get something newer. I bought it and had all of the work done to import it myself, but since my plans have changed, this is the only reason I am selling her. I am planning on driving her back towards the UK in the next few weeks if she sells and the mileage will increase to around 2000 miles. I will drive the vehicle to Rotterdam where it can be shipped to a East/West Coast port. If vehicle does not sell, I might leave her in Romania until the fall, or just make the trip anyway and ship the vehicle to the states, do all the importation paperwork and sell her for a higher price later this year, this is your chance to save thousands of dollars. Will include bill of sale, V5 from the UK and all paperwork, receipts. You will be responsible for shipping from Rotterdam to your location, import fees and applicable taxes. If BIN price is met, I will cover shipping from Rotterdam to NY, or up to $1500 credit for shipping to another location, you are still responsible for import fees and applicable taxes. 10% deposit due 24 hrs after auction ends via Paypal, balance due within 72 hrs after auction ends (bank transfer or money order). NOTE: EBAY DOES NOT VALIDATE THE UK VIN NUMBER. THIS VEHICLE IS A 1986 NOT A 1980 AS EBAY HAS IT LISTED 2.5 NA diesel and LT77 transmission, with typical small oil leaks, even after replacing gaskets, nothing major.Very little rust, some on the chassis surface, and some on the interior bulkhead and floors, very miniscule.Has NATO and civilian hitch, rubber floor mats, front and rear.Tilt/canvas is in good condition, no tears or leaks, plastic is clear, small scratches, all ropes are present.

On Jul-08-14 at 02:15:27 PDT, seller added the following information: I am at the vehicle today, so if there are any request for pictures or more youtube videos let me know ASAP, since there is one day left,,,,she gets started weekly and runs for 10 minutes, I fired her up this morning and had no issues, currently there is 45 miles on the speedo/refurb engine and I will be driving it daily, so miles will go up some, there was no fluid/oil spots under the vehicle when I got here today, so maybe all the new gaskets are working, I will see if there are any minor leaks after driving her around town. I changed the passenger defroster hose with a NIB this morning and will do some tidy work etc. The reserve is lower than what you can buy one with all of this work, believe me... my loss is your gain. Also the current BIN is the lowest I will go, so it will not change anymore after this, remember this includes me driving it from Romania to Rotterdam, and shipping it to NY or a $1500 credit to another port. You are only responsible for import fees, and applicable taxes for your state and registration.On Jul-08-14 at 07:29:56 PDT, seller added the following information: Drove it earlier, still has a small leak on the transmission, nothing major, all Landy's leak in some areas, so it is nothing major, rolled the rear and sides up and did about 30 miles around town. So any questions ask away...
