In today's world of uncertainty, "Doomsday" style vehicles are steadily on the rise. The Land Rover Defender takes the lead as one the most desired off-road capable vehicles around the globe. No 4x4 vehicle is complete in the United States without some firepower. However, this 1989 Land Rover Defender D130 skyrockets past the rest with it's eccentric appearance. The .50 Caliber M2HB Rifle mounted to the roof (Yes, it is fully operational) is just one of the many modifications that make this SUV the the best on the market. For legal reasons the seller will sell the .50 cal rifle separately.
The exterior of the vehicle is thoughtfully colored in a mix of neutral "Mil Spec" paint blends that lets the vehicle camouflage itself with it's outside surroundings. The custom designed roll cage, along with the half doors on the vehicle allow for users to have full visibility of the surrounding areas as they drive. Being that this is a fully street legal vehicle, it can be enjoyed in the desert during the morning and a downtown city street at night. The upgraded LED lights allow great visibility at all times of the night, and are accompanied by a massive WARN winch to pull you out of any sticky situations. The elephant in the room when looking at this vehicle is the Browning .50 cal M2HB semi-automatic rifle mounted to the roof. If you want to have fun in the wilderness, this goliath is matted to a 55 gallon auxiliary feeder tank, to assure that the festivities last as long as you desire. The interior also allows for much more storage if you decide to use the specially design seat covers that allow users to attach multiple objects to them.
The motor powering this truck is the famous 300tdi 2.5L 4-cylinder turbo diesel engine. A powerful and very reliable power plant that has proven itself many times throughout the years gives plenty of torque to get through whatever obstacles you may contact. There are many modifications assisting in the performance of this truck including an Allisport XL radiator and intercooler to maintain cool temperatures in even the worst climates. No road, or surface will be an issue with the upgraded Long travel suspension with Bilstein remote reservoir shocks. The most thoughtful upgrade on the entire vehicle is the 75 gallon fuel tank, allowing maximum use of the trucks capabilities .

Every country has its own off-road icon. Japan has the Land Cruiser, America has the Jeep Wrangler, and Germany has the Mercedes G-Class. But none of these quite compare to the Land Rover Defender. Its origins can be traced back to 1948 when the first Land Rover was launched. Over the next few decades, it evolved into the Series II and the Series III (including a few sub-series), and in 1983, an improved, more modern Land Rover 110 was launched. This would bear the distinct appearance that we now call the Defender (a nameplate that was finally attached to it in 1990). Production finally ended in 2016 after 67 years and over 2 million units. But the story doesn’t end there, for in 2020, Land Rover launched the all-new L663 Defender. “Same, but different” is the simplest way to describe this new car, as it clearly carries many design elements from its heritage and brings the great off-road capabilities of its forefathers, but with modern technology and comfort integrated into it. This 2023 Defender 100 S Trek Edition is quite special, as the owner tells us that it's number 80 out of only 100 units built that exist in North America.
The classic Land Rover Defender is directly descended from 1948’s Land Rover Series I. After World War II, the Rover Company of Britain wanted to create a tough off-road vehicle for agricultural use. Things started as the Series I, then Series II, Series III, and finally the Defender by the early 1990s. Across the world, Defenders are renowned for their tough persona and go-anywhere capabilities. This 1997 Land Rover Defender 110 is no different. What’s more, the vehicle is fresh from a restoration that was completed in February 2025. It also has a new engine that is less than 1,000 miles on it. Basically, this is a born-again vehicle that’s better than when it left the factory in 1997 and is up for grabs with us. If you wish to own it, give us a call or shoot us a DM pronto.
British automotive icons are plenty but when you really take a deep dive into the finest of the finest you can rest assured that one would hear the Land Rover Defender mentioned on many occasions. Built to take on any terrain and be as rugged as one can be, the Land Rover Defender is a machine that has stayed relevant through decades and is a master of its craft. Present today is a unique blend of iconic British automotive design and good old American performance and takes shape with this 1995 Land Rover Defender 110. Because this Defender features a LS3 V8 under its hood!
The Rover company of Britain had to shift their priorities to adjust to the post-war consumer environment. Prior to the War, Rover made luxury cars but in a new era of promised prosperity among austerity, the automaker turned their attention towards bolstering Britain’s burgeoning agricultural industry. The Willys Jeep of USA was the inspiration, and what emerged was the Land Rover Series in 1948. The Series became the Series II, Series III, and Defender over many decades of solid service, not only in Britain, but across the world. Meanwhile, a Spanish automaking outfit called Santana started working closely with Land Rover to build their own versions in Spain. Today, we’ve got one of their creations, a 1976 Land Rover 88 Series III Santana that was reportedly given a full frame-off restoration in 2023. The vehicle’s rebuilt engine has got less than 1,000 miles on it, as has its rebuilt gearbox. Furthermore, this vehicle was imported from Colombia, highlighting the journey that it’s taken halfway across the world to get to Florida where it currently awaits a new owner – which could be you!
