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.
Inspection
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.
