1988 Land Rover Defender 90 Beach Cruiser



Built for the Breeze: Signature Autosports Showcases a Coastal Dream
1988 Land Rover Ninety 300Tdi Open Top Beach Cruiser — #273713A
Signature Autosports is thrilled to present this stunning pre-owned 1988 Land Rover Ninety 300Tdi Open Top Beach Cruiser—an adventurous blend of vintage charm and modern capability, masterfully reimagined by Osprey Custom 4×4. With fewer than 300 miles since its transformation, this open-air masterpiece is ready for sun-drenched coastal drives, off-road exploration, and everything in between.
Power and Performance, Wherever the Journey Leads
Under the hood, a rebuilt Land Rover 300Tdi 2.5L turbo diesel engine delivers proven durability and legendary off-road prowess. Paired with a robust R380 5-speed manual transmission and a heavy-duty LT230 transfer case with a center differential lock, this Land Rover is engineered for both smooth highway cruising and rugged terrain. Bilstein® shocks and Land Rover heavy-duty springs ensure a confident ride, while upgraded front disc brakes provide exceptional stopping power.
This Ninety rides on 16” color-matched steel wheels wrapped in 265/75R16 BFGoodrich® All-Terrain T/A® KO2® tires—engineered for maximum traction on sand, dirt, and pavement alike.
Classic Style Meets Modern Refinement
Dressed in Grasmere Green, this Land Rover boasts a timeless aesthetic with color-matched wheel arches and trim, a satin silver aluminum “Heritage” grille, and anodized aluminum door and bonnet hinges. Rugged yet refined, it features chequer plate wingtop protection and a full suite of LED lighting, including halo-style DRLs, LED turn signals, and color-matched LED marker, reverse, and tail lamps.
A Luxurious Interior Designed for Adventure
Inside, the craftsmanship is undeniable. Premium Saddle Leather front sport seats with Kennedy Tartan inserts add a sophisticated touch, while the classic dark wood-rimmed steering wheel nods to heritage styling. A 7-inch Atoto® S8 infotainment system offers wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto®, keeping you connected wherever your travels take you.
The rear cargo/passenger area is equally versatile, featuring four stowable side-facing seats and a stunning teak floor with a matching tailgate cover—bringing a yacht-inspired elegance to this rugged off-roader. LED ambient lighting and a wireless charging pad round out the modern amenities.
