Land Rover’s Defender is one of those all-time greats in off-roading nameplates. Derived from 1948’s Land Rover Series I, the Defender name came around 1990, and by then, it had evolved massively from the Series, despite a very similar exterior outlook.

This 1990 Land Rover Defender 90 definitely portrays that charm, with its extensive do-over that includes a repaint to factory spec and an aftermarket exhaust.

We’re told that the vehicle packs a replaced engine with just 3,500 miles on it, and that engine was refreshed before being swapped in. A recent alignment and tire balancing has also reportedly been carried out on this relatively modern classic four-by-four.
