Overview of 1997 Land Rover Defender 110 For Sale by Owner

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.

Exterior and Interior

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.

Engine

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.

$279,999

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.

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.

This 2002 Jeep Wrangler Sahara shows approximately 217,250 total miles, but its story is defined as much by the documented mechanical work as by the odometer. Powered by Jeep’s 4.0L PowerTech inline-six and paired with a 3-speed automatic, it retains the classic TJ formula of a short wheelbase, Command-Trac part-time 4WD, a 2-speed transfer case, removable doors, and a removable hardtop. According to the current owner, the Jeep has also received a NOS replacement frame, while the service history notes a remanufactured engine, transmission, and rear end along with a long list of chassis and drivetrain work. A tan aftermarket soft top, custom paintwork, and the combination of open-air versatility with substantial mechanical attention make this Wrangler especially appealing to someone who wants a driver-focused TJ with extensive documented servicing behind it.
