With the arrival of the latest generation Defender, so did a massive debate. Some appreciated the new Defender and its technology, but most fans were quick to say that the true essence of what made this vehicle legendary had died. As we all know, the defender, including this early edition 1991 model, is iconic for its ruggedness, but the Defender 90, being the two-door version with a shorter wheelbase, is specially designed to offer excellent off-road capabilities. If you want to own an iconic piece of British automobile history, this 1991 Defender 90 is for you.
The Defender 90's body was made of lightweight aluminum and featured a removable hardtop, making it ideal for outdoor adventures. This specific model comes with a removable soft top similar to the color of its olive-green exterior paint. It also features a pair of Fire and Ice side steps, Channel Defender doors, black intake vents, an LED light kit, a locking fuel cap, and a front bumper hosting a SMITTYBILT XRC performance winch. The vehicle sits on powder-coated white wheels wrapped in off-road tires. The 1991 Land Rover Defender 90's interior was designed with a utilitarian focus, reflecting its rugged nature and off-road capabilities. The Defender 90 had a simple and functional interior layout, but this example got some upgrades. With aluminum dash vents, an LT77 aluminum shift knob set, a VDO instrument cluster inclusive of add-ons, a black lock cubby for the center, and a touch screen Sony infotainment system that connects to alpine speakers, one would say that this 1991 Land Rover Defender 90 is perfectly suited to modern-day requirements.
While the 1991 Land Rover Defender 90 came originally with a 2.5L four-cylinder engine, the current owner decided that this example would do better with a little extra power and swapped the original motor with a 4.0L V6 engine with just around 1,800 miles on it.
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.

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.

Even the world’s best luxury automaker, Rolls-Royce, wasn’t immune from the SUV tsunami that gripped the automotive world. However, when you’re sitting at the top of the hierarchy of luxury, you’ve got to give it your best – and then some. That’s why Rolls-Royce took their own sweet time, only entering the luxury SUV game in 2018 with the Cullinan. Named after the largest rough diamond ever discovered to date, the Cullinan is the brand’s first SUV, and their first all-wheel drive vehicle. And as you’d expect, it’s every bit a Rolls-Royce. Don’t believe us? Buy this 2021 Rolls-Royce Cullinan Black Badge with a smidge less than 20,000 miles on the clock, and you’ll never settle for anything less.
After decades of service, the Mercedes-Benz G-Class nameplate has taken on a life of its own, transcending its original utilitarian roots and becoming a symbol of luxury and success in its latest generations. But the legend started with the 1985 Mercedes Benz 300GD. Our featured car forgoes the chrome of the modern versions and instead provides a satisfying look back at the origins of the G Class. This particular example makes its way to the US from its homeland of Germany and features just 46,000 kilometers on the odometer. Not only does this 1985 Mercedes Benz 300GD feature some serious off-road kit — plus Mercedes’ legendary OM606 engine — but it has also reportedly been fully stipped, having received a complete restoration before being offered for sale.
Known as the 'go everywhere vehicle,' the Land Rover Defender is one of the most utilitarian and iconic vehicles in the world's automotive history and remains a relevant name today. However, much has changed since the Series 1 left the factories in the Fifties. Modern Land Rovers come equipped with all sorts of electronic driver assist systems to make traversal in rough terrain efficient, quick, and convenient. But for those who want a more 'raw experience' to truly connect with the vehicle and conquer the elements without compromising on more modern luxuries, this 1991 Land Rover Defender 110 is the ideal choice. Reportedly sporting several amenities for the driver, this Land Rover gives both the tactile experience of a classic Land Rover and a range of modern conveniences and luxuries.
