The Land Rover Defender has always been a bit of a forbidden fruit kind of car for U.S. consumers. Despite a handful of North American-spec Defenders being offered, by and large, the classic Defender was unobtanium in the States. But that doesn’t mean you can’t sample this classic off-roading icon today. Thanks to imports opening up, you can now get your hands on European-sourced examples of the classic Defender in various flavors. Take our featured car, for example, which was imported from the Netherlands. It features a classic 3.5-liter Rover V8, an automatic transmission, and a few modern features to improve driveability.
This 1987 Land Rover Defender is of the 110 Pickup variety, where the “110” refers to the wheelbase in inches, and the pickup part is fairly self-explanatory. The Defender pickup maintains decent room for occupants with a short but useful rear bed. The owner reports that the car has been repainted in black and features several new components. These include a new front grille, new lights, new wheels, and new tires. Inside the Defender, you’ll find a new interior, featuring tan seats with a quilted leather finish. There’s a Momo steering wheel inside, along with new gauges. In the center, you’ll find a modern and newly installed Pioneer floating head unit, which features Apple CarPlay and a reverse camera.
Under the hood, you’ll find an icon of both British and American motoring — a Rover-badged 3.5-liter V8. Of course, used in multiple Rover applications, this small-block V8 originally started life as a Buick lump and was soon adapted for use by the English car manufacturer. In this application, the 3.5-liter V8 engine is a new addition and is coupled with a four-speed automatic transmission. Both the engine and gearbox are reported to have only 5,800 miles on them, which corresponds with what is displayed by the odometer. The chassis is reported to have a total of 42,000 miles on it before the engine and gearbox swap was carried out. Also new is the suspension system, while gas lines and the gas tank have also been changed.
