The Land Rover Defender is a 4x4 that is perhaps better known outside of North America, than within. These compact and medium off roaders were introduced by British manufacturer Land Rover in 1948, as the Land Rover Series, and gained the Defender nameplate in the late Eighties. They were introduced in three lengths, indicated by wheelbase in inches. The 90 was the shortest, in three-door form, whilst the 110 was the most popular five-door. A stretched 130 (actually 127-inch wheelbase) was also available. Body styles included pickup and panel truck as well. The Defender is legendary for its off-road prowess and is commonly compared to the Toyota Land Cruiser. Numerous tests have shown that there is indeed very little difference between the two vehicles when the going gets tough. This 1988 Land Rover Defender 110 comes from Illinois with 110,000 miles under its wheels. Originally imported from Russia, it’s had a refreshed body and undercarriage, was undercoated in 2020 and comes with a host of upgrades.
Exterior and Interior
The Land Rover Defender’s silhouette is an iconic one that has hardly changed since the first Series Land Rovers of 1948. This 1988 Land Rover Defender 110 wears a black paintwork that is protected below the waistline black-painted aluminum side skin guards. It also has window protectors that can be lowered when not in use. Black off-road wheels and tires, a new mesh roof rack and new rear-mounted ladder complete the overall appearance, which is said to be offroad/overland style. It’s got gas tanks on either side and a front-mounted winch to help you get out of sticky situations or help someone else who needs it, whilst an off-road Farm jack is mounted on the rear bumper. The interior is purposeful, with grey leather seats and black dash. A sunroof is also present, and as it came from Russia, this Defender is left-hand-drive, unlike right-hand-drive UK imports. Five adults and their luggage can be accommodated inside the cabin, and a modern Bluetooth-capable sound system has been installed.
Engine
The Defender came with a variety of gasoline and diesel motors, and this 1988 Land Rover Defender 110 comes with its original 3.5L gasoline V8. This engine is from the Rover engine family, and puts out 158hp and 210 lb ft. A five-speed manual gearbox and transfer case send the power to all four wheels via a transfer case with low range. This example has undergone a change of oil, oil filters and air filters, as well as a new fuel filter.
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.
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. Showing approximately 1,820 miles, it combines classic Defender architecture with a comprehensively reworked drivetrain, suspension, braking system, exterior, and cabin. 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 1999 Land Rover Defender 110 represents one of the most recognizable and capable utility vehicles ever produced, combining classic British expedition styling with practical upgrades for modern usability. Powered by the legendary 2.5L turbocharged TD5 diesel engine and paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, this Defender delivers the rugged character and driver involvement that enthusiasts seek from the marque. Showing approximately 98,377 miles, this example features a matte black exterior, upgraded lighting, aftermarket wheels, and a refreshed interior, creating a distinctive take on the iconic long-wheelbase Defender platform.
The 1997 Land Rover Defender 90 remains one of the most recognizable compact 4x4s ever built, and this example blends the model’s traditional utility with a selection of functional upgrades. Showing approximately 81,458 miles, it is finished in Black over a Black interior and retains the classic right-hand-drive configuration. Power comes from a 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder diesel paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, while an LT230 dual-range transfer case and locking center differential provide the mechanical foundation expected from a Defender. Exterior additions such as a Rhino-Rack roof rack, rear access ladder, brush guard, Sawtooth-style wheels, side steps, and checker-plate protection reinforce its expedition-ready character, while the cabin has been updated with aftermarket front bucket seats and a touchscreen audio system.
