1994 NAS Land Rover Defender 90 Project for Sale in Boston

Posted on 0 6

1994 NAS Land Rover Defender Project for Sale
Location: Boston

The cult following that the Land Rover Defender 90 has is incredibly strong.   These are very capable off road vehicles and look beautiful.   There is an Arles Blue one in my area that I am dying to make the owner an offer for.   I had a 1995 Beluga black Defender 90  that had multiple tops and a surf rack.   It was No. 2001 and I would love to be reunited with my old car.

This British Racing Green Defender 90 looks like a tired basket case that has been sitting for a long time.   It sits in Boston in a side yard waiting for a more loving owner.    The front tires are  flat and the front grille  and lights  have been removed.   I would like to see more of this car and find out what its needs are.  It would be a shame for this to be parted out.  The price seems optimistic for a car that needs a total restoration but time will tell.   I am sure it is not an easy project or this car would be put on the road and for sale at twice the price.

As you know more restorations are taking place in Eastern Europe like Poland where the skills and level of craftsmanship are high.   If you have an Jaguar XKE that was involved in an front end accident, you can now order a brand new aluminum alloy front bonnet from Warszawa, Poland.   It is nice to know they are making these body parts to support these cars.  I do see many restorations going on at the moment.   All I ever heard growing up was how unreliable these cars were and to stay away.   There time has come and enthusiasts are rediscovering these cars again the last 4 years.   All the problems associated with these cars are now sorted out with improved and superior parts solutions.  These are truly some of the most beautiful cars in the world.

VIN  127H

This 1977 Lotus Esprit S1 parts car can be found for sale in New Jersey.  It only comes with the bill of sale only.   There must be someone doing a restoration on an Esprit S1 that could use some parts from this car.   It has Wolfrace Wheels and there is a Buick V8 engine block currently in car.  The seller made an attempt to turn it into a convertible.  Not sure why though.

Is anyone working on a Esprit S1 restoration?

1988 Lotus Esprit Turbo For Sale in Virginia Beach

1988 Lotus Esprit Turbo For Sale in Virginia Beach
Location: Virginia Beach, Virginia
Odometer: 25,500 Miles

Here is a White on Black 1988 Lotus Esprit Turbo found in Virginia Beach.  It has only 25,500 miles and seller states it is in excellent condition.   It has been given a new paint job and the wheels have been powder coated.  This car has been seen for sale for several months.   Maybe the price can be negotiated.   I would assume it has been passed on so you should investigate further before purchase.   A Pre-Purchase Inspection (PPI) would be recommended but it does look to be cosmetically nice.   I would love to take this car for a test drive and check out the engine and overall condition.    It could be a diamond in the rough.  Perhaps with minor repairs, this could be a fun daily driver or track car for not a lot of money at all.

What are your thoughts on this White 1988 Lotus Esprit Turbo?

1988 Lotus Esprit Turbo For Sale
Location: Ohio
VIN   SCCFC20A5JHF62194
Odometer  82,125 Miles

Lotus Esprits have been increasing in value noticeably in the last 2 years.   This black on black 1988 model has gone through a 26 month restoration.  It has a 2.2 liter turbo engine with a 5 speed transmission.   It is #194 of 527 built in the 1988 model year.  The Engine has been fully rebuilt top to bottom.   The sell has put in an aftermarket Quaife Limited Slip Differential (LSD).   Its been given all leather and it looks stunning.  Most of these cars  I have seen with original leather interior show extreme wrinkling and wear.   I am assuming that is due to the construction of the seat  and quality of the leather used.   Both fuel tanks has been removed and internally coated.   Seller states that it has a clear Carfax and has all original paint.

Location: Austin, Texas

Odometer: 28,000 Miles

Only a year ago, you could buy a Lotus Esprit Turbo SE for $16,000.   These cars have been on the rise lately.  Where can you can an exotic for this kind of performance for $20k-25k these days.   This car has just had its expensive engine out service done at a staggering cost of $5,100 to the seller.    It comes with oem wheels as well as teh OZ wheels found on the S4.    It has a cracked wood cover on the instrument panel which I have found on almost every esprit I have looked at.   The windshield wiper does not work and will need replacment.    The Air Condition blows cold which is a huge plus.

If you had $25,000 burning a hole in your pocket, would you choose to buy the  Lotus Esprit Turbo SE?
