Reportedly sporting several amenities for the driver, with 74,700 miles on the clock, this Land Rover gives both the tactile experience of a classic Land Rover and a range of modern conveniences and luxuries. Restored in Colombia by a workshop specializing in Land Rovers, the vehicle returned to the USA on 22nd December! It’s probably the closest you’ll ever come to a brand-new 1990 Defender.
The grey exterior creates an amazing contrast with the darker elements of the interior. This particular 1990 Land Rover Defender 90 Restomod comes with several great modern amenities to make the ride just that little better since it rolled out of the factory. This includes new tires and carpeting, which the current owner reports. Then there's the Defender Puma front grille design, the interior, and exterior LED lights, chrome air inlets on the front mudguards, and more. The iconic boxy design remains with little to no change and continues to live on. Overfenders by Kan design cover four sides for added protection. The degree of restoration is so meticulous, you’ll struggle to find any rust on this three-decade-old vehicle. Stepping inside with the aid of the courtesy steps, you'll find this particular Defender 90 from the 1990s comes with a soothing black interior that features a new A/C, Nappa leather upholstery with diamond stitching, and power front windows. The utilitarian aesthetic of the Land Rover is still well preserved and is everything you would want from a vehicle of its time to keep cool even while trekking the wilderness.
This particular Land Rover comes with 74,700 miles on the clock and delivers power to the wheels through a powerful 2.5L engine paired with an exhaust that roars and growls with every throttle blip. It’s received aftermarket headers to enhance power as well. An unobtrusive red switch by the gear lever isolates the entire electrical system which is useful in the event of an emergency. This is a vehicle that means business and with its new look, this Defender is a vehicle that is ready for anything.
In 1948, Britain’s Rover Company produced its first four-wheel-drive civilian vehicle—the Series I, inspired by the American Willys-Overland Jeep. Built with an aluminum body, a box frame, and serious off-road capability, it laid the foundation for one of the most iconic 4x4 lineups in automotive history. Over the decades, the Series I evolved into the Series II, Series III, and eventually, by the early 1990s, the beloved Defender. Despite hundreds of mechanical and comfort upgrades, the Defender retained its signature utilitarian design and rugged profile. Among the various wheelbase options, the 90 (indicating a shorter wheelbase) was the most agile and off-road-focused, typically built in a two-door configuration. Today, we’re offering a very appealing 1997 Land Rover Defender 90, recently imported to the U.S. in 2024 and currently located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. This example was refurbished under current ownership, with significant updates including a left-hand-drive conversion, a refinish in durable tan bedliner material, and the replacement of the seats, door cards, center console, and headliner. Power comes from a 2.5-liter turbodiesel inline-four paired with a five-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case—ideal for tackling harsh terrain. Additional equipment includes black 16″ steel wheels, disc brakes on all four corners, an aftermarket grille, LED auxiliary lights, air conditioning, and a Kenwood CD stereo. This Defender 90 is offered by the selling dealer with service records, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Florida title.
Travelling at speed is a wonderful thing, seeing the world pass by and you in the lead can be exhilarating, however the art of off-roading is arguably the more memory-filled experience one could hope to achieve when behind the wheel.

With a reported 179,971 miles on the clock, this short wheelbase British legend brings to you off-roading in style.
The Land Rover Defender comes from a lineage of over 50 years of off-road excellence. The first Land Rover Series examples hit British roads in 1948, and soon made their way to nearly all countries across the globe. Throughout the years, Land Rover made hundreds of enhancements to the Series, including naming it the Defender in late 1990. Produced in several wheelbases, the 90 was the shortest variant available. While most Defender 90s are typically three-door SUVs, this particular 1993 Land Rover Defender 90 is an interesting, two-door single cab pickup truck variant. Bearing 80,000 miles to its name, this vehicle is now up for sale, and makes an excellent off-road runabout.
The car that would eventually become the Defender was first released in 1983, although the name “Defender” wasn’t used until 1990. Before that, it was simply called the 90 or 110, and they appeared roughly the same until 2016. These rugged vehicles are fun to drive on the road and are amazing off-roaders if you want them to be. This example of the 1998 Land Rover Defender 110 Td5 hasn’t seen many miles since its full frame-off restoration that was completed in 2016. Just as the term suggests, everything you can think of about this vehicle is new or rebuilt. This is an excellent way to bring a vehicle to the modern era while maintaining its classic appearance. This Defender is currently located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and is all set to arrive in your driveway.

Plus, you can really customize a classic Defender in almost any way. Just take this Mesa, Arizona-based 1997 Land Rover Defender 110 as an example.
