SUVs have changed a fair amount in the past few decades. The once rough and tough desert trailblazers that could climb mountains at a moment’s notice have gone soft. Only suited to the parking lot of the local Mall of America. However, this 1997 Land Rover Defender 110 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.
The interior of this Defender has been preserved meticulously, with all switch gear looking its best. A single-din head unit sits perfectly on the upright dashboard. The quick detach steering wheel from Optimill makes it easy to maneuver through tight spaces, especially considering it is a right-hand drive model. With only three simple gauges showing the essentials, hardly anything is bound to go wrong on a vehicle this simple. The boxy, slab-sided styling is a welcome sight amongst the curvy architecture of SUVs of today. It looks especially good in this stunning shade of Green with OEM 18 inch wheels painted black and wrapped in Mickey Thompsons rubber, which make for a comfortable ride when traversing rough terrain.
Under the hood is a 2.5 liter 4 cylinder diesel motor, named the the 300TDi. Paired with a 5-speed manual transmission and a low-range transfer case, this Defender is locked and ready for its next cross-country adventure deep into the jungle, especially with the recently fitted Terrafirma Suspension.

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 decided to create a sturdy, simple, and capable off-roader. They christened their creation the Land Rover, inspired by America’s Willy’s Jeep. Little did they know that this would soon become a hit across the world, and a cult icon. The Land Rover soon became the Land Rover Series, as consecutive years would see it upgraded and enhanced in myriad ways, while retaining much of its iconic design and basic purpose. In 1990, Land Rover renamed the model the Defender, in keeping with its new naming conventions. Available in multiple wheelbases, the 110 is the most popular, thanks to its five-door body and approximately 110-inch wheelbase. Yes, there’s a new Defender now, but it goes without saying that a classic Defender is one of the best ways to explorer the great outdoors. That’s why we’re glad to offer this 175,000-mile 1995 Land Rover Defender for sale. The vehicle was mechanically rebuilt by Land Rover of Austria in Vienna, Austria and comes with all rebuild receipts included in the sale. The paint is covered by a warranty until March 2025, and the vehicle also has a BMIHT certificate.
The original Land Rover Defender may have sold well in the US, but — bar a very limited number — it was not officially offered to stateside consumers. But now that we’re seeing specialists and fans import some of these iconic off-roaders to our shore, it may just be the best time to find out what makes the Defender so unique. Our featured 1998 Land Rover Defender 110 Td5 has undergone a full restoration. The owner reports that the frame has been sandblasted, repainted, and sealed, with the full frame-off restoration having been completed in 2016. The engine has been rebuilt, too, and a whole host of other parts have been replaced to ensure the reliable running of this 4x4 for many years to come.

One of the most iconic off-roaders, the Jeep Wrangler is renowned for its removable doors and top. There’s only one other off-roader on the market today that allows you to do this; that’s the Ford Bronco. Introduced in 1986, the Wrangler comes decked out with Jeep’s signature off-roading capabilities from the factory. This makes it far more useful off-road than any other SUV before it’s been heavily modified. But, Jeep Wranglers can still be modified for even more capability off road, which is what this third generation, JK-series 2015 Jeep Wrangler Ultimate Sport has become. Now, this 71,000-mile trail beast could be yours!
