Classic Car Overview
I purchased the Defender in June 2022 with the original 300 TDI engine, from Royal Defender Imports, who purchased the vehicle in June 2021 and had it imported to Texas in Mar 2022. After buying the Defender I registered the car in Colorado and in my ~3 years of ownership have put ~9000 miles on it. Loved the Defender, however, with the 300TDI engine I got tired of being in the slow lane, so in 2024 I had Nitro Automotive replace the engine with a new 6.2L V8 LS-3
