GarageKeptMotors.) As the ultimate version of the original Land
Rover, (the Defender 90) proved capable of meeting just about every
off-road challenge.... �€"Hagerty The Land Rover Defender has a
70-year history across five generations of the model. Legendary-too
often applied to various automobile brands-is in fact an apt
description for this rugged, simple, highly capable
four-wheel-drive vehicle. A veteran of British military service,
many an African safari, and service to celebrities from Winston
Churchill to Paul McCartney, the Defender satisfies in a way no
lesser off-road-capable vehicle really does. Across its first three
generations, the Defender suffered from one recurring criticism:
those earlier vehicles could be uncomfortable, and so, hard to live
with. The Land Rover people addressed this issue head-on with the
launch of the Defender 90. (The Defender 90) marked the first time
a Land Rover utilized the coil-spring suspension from the Range
Rover to replace the old cars' archaic leaf-spring design. Various
quality-of-life improvements, like a more comfortable interior and
modernized engine lineup, made tremendous strides in on-road
driving manners. (Motor Trend) Alas, only a very few Defender 90s
were ever allocated to the U.S. market, just 2,000 per year over a
four-year run. Offered here, is a right-hand-drive Defender 90.
Showing 194,000 miles (or fewer than 6,700 miles per-year, on
average) on its odometer, the well-earned Land Rover reputation for
longevity-particularly when powered by a diesel engine-promises
many times that number still remain to be traveled, explored,
conquered... and enjoyed. The truck wears handsome recent dark-red
metallic paint, shiny and uniform across the body. The red is
accented with black on bumpers, grille-surround, mirrors, wheels,
running boards, roof ladder, and other trim giving the Defender a
restrained look, with undeniable presence. Equipment upgrades on
the exterior include a full-width, roof-mounted, off-road LED light
bar, as well as LEDs replacing less-bright original lighting on
driving lights, marker lights, and directional indicators. A
powered SmittyBilt XLS winch is mounted in the front bumper; a
snorkel air-intake system adds fording capability; a full roof rack
(accessed via the body-fixed ladder) adds safari-capable cargo
capacity. Factory badges and emblems (including the Range Rover
identification in black on the truck's rear body, and the Defender
logo on the spare-tire insert) are all in place. Out front, the
tops of both fenders feature black, textured-steel anti-slip
surfaces for safe servicing during inclement weather, and the same
surfaces appear the lower body and behind the rear wheels. Cooper
Discoverer STT LT235/85 R16 tires are mounted. Inside, the truck
has benefitted from further comfort and convenience upgrades. Brown
leather upholstery covers all seating surfaces, front buckets and
four fold-down, side-facing rear jump seats, and is echoed on the
door trim and the cabin headliner. Interior courtesy lighting has
been augmented with LEDs, a DVD entertainment system is mounted in
the rear-passenger area, and a Pioneer audio head unit with pop-up
video screen has been added to the dash. A backup camera is also
mounted. In keeping with the overall character of the vehicle,
cabin floors are cover
