This 1996 Land Rover Defender 110 was imported from Spain in September 2023. Before arriving at our shop, the truck received a substantial amount of restoration work in Spain. Some of this work included new Arles Blue exterior paint, exterior LED lighting, KBX headlight surrounds and exterior trim, custom leather interior, new wheels and new tires. After the truck arrived at our shop, we performed a 300-point bumper to bumper inspection, that included over 100 hours of additional restoration and mechanical service. The vehicle is mechanically sound and is ready for immediate use as a daily driver. This is a clean and reliable daily driver with matching numbers. The vehicle looks great, drives great and is ready for your next adventure. The vehicle is powered by a 4 cylinder 300 Tdi (turbo diesel) engine and has a 5-speed manual transmission with 100K original miles. The engine cold starts without issue or white smoke and runs solid.
Additional restoration and upgrades include: new alcantara headliner, Exmoor premium carpet, brown leather upholstered interior, leather upholstered seats, leather door cards, leather wrapped dashboard and steering wheel, electrical upgrades include: touch-screen GPS navigation and Bluetooth stereo with hands-free calling and a Marshall speaker in the center console; steel wolf wheels with new Cooper Discover STT Pro tires, new rubber door seals, new door sill trim, new windshield and windshield gasket. The truck maintains standard ride height with new BritPart shocks and springs. The exterior includes new checker plate trim throughout, running boards, swing-away spare tire mount, tow hitch and a full length roof rack. Mechanical service performed on the truck includes: re-sealed front differential, rebuilt front wheel hubs with new gaskets and seals, new track rod, new ball joints in the rack and pinion, new steering damper, new rear drive shaft; brake flush and re-bleed with new vacuum pump, master cylinder and servo. We also applied a three-stage POR-15 rust treatment and protective coating to the underside of the truck.
