Although an icon worldwide, Land Rover Defenders are hard to come by in the U.S. Bar a limited run of North American-spec cars that were sold new, the classic Defender, with its boxy silhouette and solid drivetrain, wasn’t offered to consumers stateside. Thankfully, though, thanks to many being past the 25-year import threshold, we can now enjoy what the rest of the off-road community has been raving about for so long. On offer today is a 1996 Land Rover Defender 110 in right hand drive, that was imported from the UK in 2023.
Exterior and Interior
There’s no mistaking the Land Rover Defender for anything else. While the modern interpretation offered by JLR tries to capture the magic of the original, the slab-sided origin story with its distinctive safari windows is hard to beat. A direct decedent from the Series Land Rovers of old, the Defender was offered in many body styles. The “110” element of our featured car’s title refers to the longer wheelbase this five-door wagon provides. Finished in Forest Green, the Defender also includes a roof rack for added carrying capabilities, as well as fold-out side steps for ease of ingress. Inside, you’ll notice that this Land Rover Defender is a UK import and right-hand drive. The interior is fairly basic, with only the essential controls on offer, as was the case with the classic Defender. You get hand-crank windows and a two-spoke steering wheel, with gauges for speed, temperature, and fuel level, as well as an analog clock. This car has also been equipped with an aftermarket audio player.
Engine
Under the hood of this 1996 Land Rover Defender RHD lies a 2.5-liter turbo diesel engine. Known as the 300 Tdi, this inline four-cylinder motor evolved from previous Land Rover engines and was designed to offer smooth and tractable performance ideal for off-roading. The powerplant puts out 111 hp and 195 lb-ft of torque, which is channeled to all four wheels via a five-speed manual transmission. This Defender also features front disc brakes and front and rear coil spring suspension for added safety and comfort.
The 1988 Land Rover Defender 110 is the kind of classic 4x4 that earned its reputation through simplicity, utility, and genuine off-road capability. Showing approximately 69,322 miles, this example is finished in Marine Blue with a contrasting Davos White roof and carries the unmistakable long-wheelbase, five-door Defender profile. Its 2.5L turbocharged diesel engine, 5-speed manual transmission, dual-range transfer case, and center differential lock give it the mechanical foundation enthusiasts expect from a traditional Land Rover, while details such as Alpine roof windows, tubular side steps, black fender flares, and aftermarket LED headlights add both character and usability. It is a straightforward, purpose-built utility vehicle with the kind of old-school driving experience that has made the Defender 110 such an enduring enthusiast favorite.
The 1999 Land Rover Defender 110 300Tdi Station Wagon is the sort of vehicle that built Land Rover’s reputation for durability, utility, and go-anywhere capability. Showing 102,866 miles, this example is finished in Forest Green with a tan and black interior and combines the practical five-door 110 body with the highly regarded 300Tdi diesel drivetrain. Its expedition-oriented equipment, including a full-length roof rack, rear access ladder, tubular side steps, black steel wheels, and TerraMax all-terrain tires, gives it a purposeful look that suits the Defender’s character. Inside, two-tone seating and a wood-rimmed steering wheel add a more distinctive touch to this traditionally utilitarian platform.
The 1995 Land Rover Defender 110 has long been prized for its utilitarian character, unmistakable box-section styling, and go-anywhere roots, but this Monarch Project 24 takes that familiar formula in an entirely different direction. Showing approximately 1,820 miles, it combines classic Defender architecture with a comprehensively reworked drivetrain, suspension, braking system, exterior, and cabin. At its heart is a 430-horsepower 6.2L LS3 V8 backed by a 6L80 six-speed automatic and Atlas transfer case, while a 5-inch suspension lift, Fox shocks, Ford 9-inch axles, Wilwood brakes, and a Warn winch give the build serious mechanical substance. Nardo Grey paint with orange accents, Italian Nappa leather, carbon-fiber trim, teak flooring, digital instrumentation, and modern multimedia equipment turn this D110 into a distinctive blend of old-school Land Rover presence and modern restomod execution.
The NAS Defender 90 occupies a special place in Land Rover history, combining the short-wheelbase utility of the classic Defender with a U.S.-market specification that has become increasingly collectible. This 1995 Land Rover Defender 90 SW Edition Hard Top shows 37,768 miles and is identified as #255 of 500 produced. Finished in White over a Black interior, it pairs a 3.9-liter naturally aspirated V8 with a 5-speed manual transmission and four-wheel drive. The SW Edition specification, low indicated mileage, Hella Rallye 3000 auxiliary lights, Freestyle alloy wheels, BFGoodrich all-terrain tires, and folding rear jump seats make this a particularly appealing example for enthusiasts looking for a more distinctive NAS Defender.
The Defender 130 sits at the working end of the classic Defender family, stretching the familiar platform into a four-door Crew Cab Pickup with serious cargo-carrying versatility. This 2001 Land Rover Defender 130 shows 49,825 miles and brings together several ingredients enthusiasts look for in an old-school Defender: a Td5 turbo-diesel, 5-speed manual, permanent four-wheel drive, locking center differential, and dual-range transfer case. Add the long pickup bed, canvas cover, front winch, and traditional steel wheels, and this 130 retains the purposeful character that made these trucks such enduring icons.
