A marque of British versatility, the Land Rover Defender is a global celebration of toughness and grit in four-wheeled expression. With a total production run of 67 years, the Defender has gathered a large fan base around the world and is considered to be one of the most iconic examples of modern British automotive history. Much like Willy's jeep, the Defender was initially built for military purposes before it won the hearts of civilians, and so, Land Rover decided to build two trims, the three-door, short wheel based Defender 90, and the longer, 5-door 110 as featured with this 1991 Land Rover Defender 110 V8 Fuel Injection, up for sale in California with just 75,200 miles on it.
Being a vehicle of military specifications, the Defender was built of aluminum alloy bodywork that gave it its iconic flat, boxy surfaces that it is well recognized for. In fact, this very design is one of the main selling points of the Defender, as it adds to the rugged nature of the vehicle. Still, its exposed nuts, bolts, and hinges that are half concealed in this beautiful black matte finish paint job give the Defender an appearance like no other, certainly not on U.S soil in recent years. The vehicle sits on a set of meaty off-road tires wrapped around black rims. The cabin concludes with a black and cognac two-tone interior complete with redone black seats in the front and rear, an aftermarket audio system, a contrasting cognac center console, a backup camera, and a wooden three-spoke steering wheel.
Under the hood of this 1991, Land Rover Defender V8 fuel injection lies a 4.6L Discovery fuel injection V8 from 2003 with 75k miles on it. Power is sent to all four wheels via a ZF HP22 automatic transmission that makes it a relatively calm and easy driving experience. The seller reports that the entire suspension, brakes, horn, wiring, radiator and cooler, signal switches, and the odometer has been completely redone on this vehicle prior to its listing, ensuring that its new owner will have maximum peace of mind on the purchase.

Land Rover introduced the Series I off-roader was introduced in 1948, as Rover knew that, like Jeep over in the USA, with World War II finished, they needed to switch priorities and serve the civilian market. The Land Rover Series I holds the designation of being the world’s first mass-produced four-wheel drive vehicle with doors and solid roof. Over time, the Series I became the Series II then Series III, before gaining the Defender name in late 1990, in keeping with Land Rover’s new naming convention. The Defender came in 90,110 and 130 forms, which roughly referred to its wheelbase. Here, we have a 1997 Land Rover Defender 110 County Edition which is a five-door station wagon variant. You can see by its right-hand drive layout that it’s likely a UK import. With only over 16,000 miles to its name, the vehicle currently resides in Houston, Texas, but is basically at home anywhere in the country – especially where there are no tarmac roads. After all, it’s meant to go off-roading and overlanding!
The definitive old-school off-roader for many folks, Land Rover’s Defender (the OG one, not the New Defender of 2019) remains the default choice. With a rich history dating back to 1948’s Land Rover Series 1, the Defender name came about in late 1990, after decades of incremental improvement and countless updates. That’s why we’re sure this 1997 Land Rover Defender 110 won’t have any trouble finding a new home. Currently stabled in Roswell, Georgia, it’s got 96,000 miles on the clock, is a Heritage Trust Certified example that’s been fully restored, and even comes in numbers-matching status! Plus it’s got some modern upgrades here and there, we’re told. You’ll also be very glad to see that it’s left-hand drive, making it easier to handle on our roads than some of the direct British imports that come with the steering wheel on the right-hand side!
There are many motor vehicles that have been described as legendary. So many, in fact, that the word has lost much of its meaning. While there have been many interesting machines introduced in the last 100 years, only a relative handful truly deserve this accolade. One of the few that does is the English Land Rover. This amazing 4x4 wagon, the first of its kind, is instantly recognized wherever it appears. In fact, it is the first motor vehicle ever seen by a quarter of the world's population. While its look has hardly changed since 1948, the vehicle that the world knows as a Land Rover has come a long way. The Land Rover Defender has a production window of over 60 years, starting with the original series 1. This example of the 1986 Land Rover Defender 110 has covered 14,707 miles and is currently located in Westport, Connecticut.
Debuting in 1969, the Range Rover was made by Land Rover as a vehicle that would slot in above their Land Rover Series model, in terms of size, as well as luxury. It proved to be a strong seller, and continues to this day, having spawned some sub-derivatives like the Range Rover Sport and Range Rover Velar too. Hence, for those seeking an iconic British luxury four-by-four, a regular Range Rover is a great choice. Today’s 2017 Range Rover SV Autobiography LWB is a Cornelius-based fourth generation variant with only under 37,000 miles on the clock. It’s got a powerful supercharged V8 under the hood, a panoramic sliding glass roof, and comes in long wheelbase variant for extra interior space. Hence, it’s a superbly spacious luxury SUV for a family that only needs four seats.

The Land Rover Defender is one of the strangest cars in the automotive world, at least the older models are. They aren’t the most enjoyable to drive or the most comfortable carrier for passengers. Yet they are absolutely adored all around the world for their undeniable British character. The Defender is as British as warm beer, good tea, and bad teeth. Not to mention, they are mighty good off-roaders as well. What you’ll often find in the market or on roads is the Defender 110, rendering the short-wheelbase Defender 90 quite rare to come by. This 2000 Land Rover Defender 90 found its way to our inventory from St. Cloud, Florida. Having driven over 119000, this example remains well-maintained and boasts a re-upholstered interior.
