Cooper Discoverer STTShown here is a Defender 90 Station Wagon
which is the last model year for the high sought after 300TDI
engine. The Defender was sourced out La Crau, France from a
Monsieur Velez. This Defender came from the dry French southern
climate of Provence-Alpes-C�te d'Azur region which is evident upon
inspection. The previous owner kept it on their rural property for
hunting. When we purchased it the rear cargo load space area was
set up with dog boxes. Hence the reason the cargo area is well
preserved from being covered most of its life. Originally sold new
in August of 1998 in France. This Defender has stayed well
preserved over the years due to the dry southern French climate in
the same area regionally as Spain and Italy.This 1998 Land Rover
Defender 90 300TDI is shown with a White exterior featuring silver
chequere plate top and black accents. The interior is finished in a
combination of black and grey. The aftermarket Blaupunkt tape
player is not functional and can be replaced at the buyer's
request. A set of 235/85R16 Cooper Discoverer STT tires wrap around
5-Spoke 16' Land Rover OEM Alloy Wheels. The 235/85R16 is the best
all-around tire for the Defender.The 300TDI diesel engine runs
properly and 5-Speed manual transmission shifts correctly through
the gears. We completed a complete review of the Defender and all
systems were found to be functional. Contact us for a complete run
down of the mechanics. Here at Car Cave, we regularly drive our
inventory and clock an average several hundred test miles on each
Defender. I trusted this Defender to be used by my wife as a daily
driver for a few days earlier this week. Well sorted mechanically
and has been taken care of by the previous owner. This would be the
perfect platform for an epic build or a great driver.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:5 Spoke Factory Alloy WheelsGrill
