The Land Rover Defender comes from the Land Rover Series of 1948. This no-nonsense off-roader was developed by Land Rover post-World War II, as a new go-anywhere machine. This was because Rover was a luxury car maker before the war, but after the war, people's priorities had changed. The Series I would run through six iterations before gaining the Defender name in 1983. Along the way, Land Rover would make myriad changes to the vehicle, but its basic shape remained the same. So, if you're looking for a way to get in on the Defender action, this 1986 Land Rover Defender 110 Soft Top is the best way to do so. It's reportedly undergone a restoration that was concluded in 2021, making it near-factory fresh with some great cosmetic and mechanical enhancements.

This 1986 Land Rover Defender 110 has received a new coat of black paint, plus a recently replaced soft top. Furthermore, it has the hood from a later Puma-engined Defender, plus an SV6 body kit for added distinctiveness. There's likely no other Defender around with this combo of parts, so you've got yourself a one-of-a-kind machine. Then, there are upgraded LED headlamps, plus extra lamps within the bumper for better off-road visibility. Climb aboard this 1986 Land Rover Defender 110, and you'll find eight seats in black leather with orange contrast stitching. We're told that this vehicle has received a new interior, including a dashboard from the later Puma-engined variant, plus a replaced center console. There's air conditioning which has been recently replaced as per the current owner. Then, there's a double-DIN touchscreen head unit with Bluetooth, plus a custom subwoofer beneath the rear seat. Finally, an aftermarket wood and polished metal three-spoke steering wheel adds a sporty touch to the driving experience.
This 1986 Land Rover Defender 110 comes with a 2.5-liter inline five-cylinder turbo diesel engine from a 2002 model. Called the TD5, this engine is rated to deliver approximately 122hp and 221lb-ft. Another lovely feature is that this vehicle comes with a ZF automatic transmission, a very useful upgrade since Defenders typically sport manual transmissions, making them tiring to drive in traffic. The autobox sends drive to all four wheels via a full-time four-wheel drive system with an LT230 transfer case. Hence, the vehicle's go-anywhere capability is preserved, and you can take it off-road without any hesitation.

In 1948, the Rover Company of Britain was gearing up for the post-war period. One of their bright ideas was to create a light, utilitarian and capable off-roader that could be used for agricultural, as well as other purposes. They were inspired by what Willys was doing with the Jeep across the pond. In fact the very first Land Rover Series prototype used a Jeep chassis and a Rover engine. The production version, of course, was Land Rover’s own design, and was called the Series I. As time passed by, it became the Series II, Series III, and gained the Defender name by 1990. Although the vehicle underwent hundreds of changes during its several decades of production, its basic shape and purpose remained true to the original. That’s why you can easily see similarities between a 1948 Series I and this 66,000-mile 1994 Land Rover Defender 110 that’s up for sale today. This six-seat vehicle is thus a great way to explore the myriad trails across America, in a vehicle that’s built for the purpose.
SUVs have changed a fair amount in the past few decades. The once rough and tough desert trailblazers that could climb mountains at a moment’s notice have gone soft. Only suited to the parking lot of the local Mall of America. However, this 1997 Land Rover Defender 110 holds true to SUVs of before. With the initial design dating back to 1948, Land Rover knew how to make a rugged workhorse that could do it all.
In 1948, the Rover Company of Britain decided to create a sturdy, simple, and capable off-roader. They christened their creation the Land Rover, inspired by America’s Willy’s Jeep. Little did they know that this would soon become a hit across the world, and a cult icon. The Land Rover soon became the Land Rover Series, as consecutive years would see it upgraded and enhanced in myriad ways, while retaining much of its iconic design and basic purpose. In 1990, Land Rover renamed the model the Defender, in keeping with its new naming conventions. Available in multiple wheelbases, the 110 is the most popular, thanks to its five-door body and approximately 110-inch wheelbase. Yes, there’s a new Defender now, but it goes without saying that a classic Defender is one of the best ways to explorer the great outdoors. That’s why we’re glad to offer this 175,000-mile 1995 Land Rover Defender for sale. The vehicle was mechanically rebuilt by Land Rover of Austria in Vienna, Austria and comes with all rebuild receipts included in the sale. The paint is covered by a warranty until March 2025, and the vehicle also has a BMIHT certificate.

There is a dedicated group of enthusiasts who swear by a Land Rover Series, or Land Rover Defender. Produced since 1948, the Land Rover Series became the Defender in late 1990, when Land Rover switched to a new naming convention for their models. While the Series underwent hundreds of updates throughout its life, including during its Defender time, the external appearance of the vehicle remains roughly similar. This 1996 Land Rover Defender 90 is no different; park it next to a 1948 Series 1 and you’ll immediately notice the similarities. But, there are several differences too. This vehicle has done just under 700 miles after undergoing a comprehensive full frame up restoration including a conversion to left-hand drive for easier driving in the United States.
SUVs have changed a fair amount in the past few decades. Many of the once rough and tough desert trailblazers capable of climbing mountains at a moment’s notice have gone soft. Only suited to the parking lot of the local Mall of America. However, this 1991 Land Rover Defender 90 holds true to SUVs of before. With the initial design dating back to 1948, Land Rover knew how to make a rugged workhorse that could do it all.

SUVs are making a comeback. And I don’t mean the mall crawlers that misfire when they drive up a road with too many leaves, I mean proper SUVs. Dessert trailblazers that could cross countries without breaking a sweat. This 2022 Ford Bronco Hennessey VelociRaptor with just 21,000 miles is the perfect companion for such excursions. The Bronco is an icon amongst Ford enthusiasts and when they brought the name back in 2021 after a long hiatus, there were high expectations, and boy did they deliver.
