BumperShown here is a Defender 90 Hard Top Station Wagon with
original paint and plenty of proper upgrades. The Defender was
sourced out Bompas, France from a Monsieur Bruno. We could easily
recognize upon inspection this Defender lived its life in the dry
French southern climate of Pyrenees-Orientales. Originally sold new
on March 29, 1996 in France. This Defender has stayed well
preserved over the years due to the dry southern French climate on
the same latitude as Spain, Portugal, and Italy. There is lengthy
list of upgrades for a proper stance and prowess off or on road.
This 1996 Land Rover Defender 90 300TDI is shown in the factory
original paint, LRC456 Alpine White with black interior upholstery.
A set of 235/85R16 Coooper Discoverer ST Mud tires wrap around a
set of aftermarket black 5-spoke 16' Alloy Wheels. The 300TDI
diesel engine runs properly, and 5-Speed manual transmission shifts
correctly through the gears. Land Rovers are habitually leaky and
as such this one is no different. We rebuilt, resealed, and
installed new bearings in the front driver's side. This Landy has
the typical leaks we see in 95% of the Defenders that pass-through
our facility. Original owners manuals and service receipts included
with the sale. Please contact us to review the history file
including the French technical inspection. Previous maintenance
shows regularly serviced timing belt, a gearbox rebuild, suspension
upgrades, and replacement of marker lamps with LED.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
and off-road vehicle, exhilarating to drive, highly reliable, and
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
turbocharger gives improved diesel economy with even greater power,
torque, longevity, and reliability. It provides high performance
on-road with the capability to tackle the worst off-road
conditions, in nearly every driving environment in the
world.Upgrades and Features:Bearmach Blue Lift SpringsBearmach
