RebuildClutch ReplacedShown here is a Defender 90 Hard Top Station
Wagon with original paint and a recent engine rebuild. The Defender
was sourced from the small beach town of Pornichet France from a
Monsieur Moise. Manufactured on April 25, 1997 and sold new in
Germany on June 10, 1997 by Land Rover Deutschland GmbH. The
previous owner purchased this Defender in November 11, 2009
according to French registration documents. Monsieur Moise provided
us with a history file of upgrades, routine maintenance, and recent
major maintenance. This 1997 Land Rover Defender 90 300TDI is shown
in the factory paint color Epsom Green Metallic (Paint Code:
LRC961) and original grey interior upholstery. The interior appears
to be all original Land Rover spec including the middle front seat
and rear jump seats. Along with the Carpeted front floors and
interior trim leads us to believe this was a higher spec model when
ordered new. A set of 235/85R16 Lanvigator Mud Terrain tires
mounted to a set of factory original 5-spoke 16' Alloy Wheels. The
recently rebuilt 300TDI diesel engine runs properly, and 5-Speed
manual transmission shifts correctly through the gears after a
recent clutch replacement. A British Motor Industry Heritage Trust
Certificate is included with the sale. Contact us to review the
maintenance file and history regarding this Defender.No other 4x4
vehicle has the pedigree and a track record like Land Rover. Not
only was it one of the first, it remains the world's pre-eminent on

easy to maintain. The Defender 90 features the high performance
300TDI 2.5L Turbo Diesel mated to the bulletproof 5 Speed Manual
R380 Transmission. Direct injection technology coupled with a
