Only a very few Defenders made it to the states during the model’s original production run. That’s a shame, because the Defender is a hidden gem in the US, but a cherished off-road legend by much of the world. Thankfully, solid examples are now entering the US, such as this 1997 Land Rover Defender 110. This Defender features the sought-after 300 TDi turbo-diesel engine and a proper 5-speed R380 manual gearbox. Finished in black over a grey interior, this example maintains a clean, purposeful aesthetic while offering true go-anywhere functionality.
The exterior is finished in black, lending the Defender 110 a stealthy, purposeful presence that pairs well with its military-bred design. The body retains its iconic shape, complete with flat panels, flared arches, and exposed hardware that hint at its utilitarian roots. The long-wheelbase 110 configuration offers added cabin space and road presence, making it a popular choice for both overlanding and restoration projects. Inside, the cabin is trimmed in grey with classic utilitarian materials designed for function over frills.
Under the hood lies the 2.5L I4 300 TDi turbo-diesel, a globally respected powerplant. It’s paired with a 5-speed R380 manual transmission, allowing the Defender to deliver a connected driving experience that suits its off-road DNA. The 4x4 system ensures surefooted traction in all conditions, and the current owner reports new shocks have been fitted, enhancing ride quality and control.
Now here’s a machine for you if none of today’s software-driven, sanitized SUVs appeals. This old-school 1996 Land Rover Defender 110 Monarch Nessie is up for grabs in Midland, Michigan. It’s an extensive build that’s done just 2,205 miles so far, and packs some tasty goodies such as a 6.2-liter LT1, a 6-speed autobox, Italian Nappa leather interior, all-weather black mats and more. All that and more could be yours if you wish, and let us tell you, with the amount of creature comforts and upgrades this machine packs, it can easily serve your daily driving requirements too.
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.

After all, it’s meant to go off-roading and overlanding!
