This 1996 Defender 90 is finished in Land Rover Coniston green with an Ivory white roof and Freestyle alloy wheels, which can only be described as simply a beautiful combination for a classic Land Rover. It’s equipped with diesel power, right-hand drive elegance and is a lovely British classic. This D90 has benefited from undergoing an extensive overhaul in 2023 with a new Marsland galvanized chassis, new suspension bushings, trailing arm bushings, shocks and springs, A arm bushing, fuel tank, fuel lines, radiator and exhaust, just to name a few items. The chassis (frame), bulkhead and door bottoms are in very excellent condition. It’s a perfect cruiser with all the character and charm you need for the ultimate driving experience. It has a 300Tdi 2.5-liter 4-cylinder turbo diesel engine and has 94k miles, it runs and drives superbly well. For reliability in the harshest conditions, there’s simply nothing that can beat the 300Tdi diesel power, with its turbocharged direct injection (Tdi) technology paired with the robust R380 5-speed manual gearbox, it provides improved economy with even greater power, torque, longevity, and reliability.
Inside the cabin it features two grey Exmoor Trim seats with a center cubby box, cup holders, chrome gear knobs, a sturdy headliner and an elegant wood rim steering wheel for some elegant style. The rear cargo area has a pair of foldable bench seats and a Land Rover equipment/dog guard separating the front and rear cabin. It also has the added security measure of a stainless-steel X Defender security pedal lock fitted. Exterior upgrades that are both aesthetically and functionally appealing are the use of LED light kit, foldable side steps, rear mud flaps and a new set of Nexon all terrain 235/85/16 tires mounted to factory alloy Freestyle wheels to fully complete the classic style. All lights, heater, wipers, and radio work, as they should. Equipped with power steering and disc brakes all round reminds you that go-anywhere also means being easy to drive and more importantly enjoyable when you’re behind the wheel. This classic Defender 90 has timeless appeal, so you get the traditional robustness with some of the best vintage style. Overall, this is one genuine and quintessential British green Defender 90, ready to hit the roads, trails, safaris, beaches or wherever your next adventures may take you.
