Vehicle Overview

The Ultimate Collectors Defender
Experience the rugged heritage of a British icon. This 1996 Land Rover Defender 90 is a rare find for enthusiasts and collectors alike. Recently imported from the UK in 2025, this right-hand drive (RHD) classic has been meticulously maintained and is ready for its next adventurewhether that's on the trail or as a standout piece in a private collection.

This is a rare opportunity to own a clean, legally imported piece of automotive history without the stress of the import process.

Classic Defenders are increasingly rare and have shown steady appreciation in value, making this a functional asset for any collector.

Mechanical

Drivetrain: Legendary 300Tdi Turbo Diesel engine paired with a crisp 5-speed manual transmission. Runs well.

Equipped with a dual-range transfer case and permanent 4WD and snorkel, this vehicle "laughs at" mud, sand, and snow.

Exterior

Finished in a striking deep metallic blue with black accents, black alloy wheels, and rugged BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain tires.

Features a clean, rust-free undercarriage (see photos) - a critical detail for any Defender of this vintage.

Interior

A functional, heritage-focused cabin featuring durable seating and the classic "box-on-a-box" dash layout that purists love.

Upholstery is in excellent condition. Black seats with folding bench seats in the back to make for easy added cargo space. See photos for cracks on inside of passenger door.
