BlueSmooth Running Td5 EngineExcellent ConditionCar Cave sourced
this beautiful Defender from the dry climate of Italy where it was
in the hands of a private owner. This beautifully finished
Caledonian Blue (Land Rover Code LRC507) contrasts off a white
roof. The body was straight and overall condition is outstanding
with the prior owner doing a respray in the factory original
colors. We mounted a set of factory 5-spoke Land Rover alloy wheels
with 265/75R16 BFG All Terrain tires to accent the look, including
contrasting white letters. The interior is very original with a
combination of black and gray. We did replace the headliner, as
like with a lot of Land Rovers, it was starting to sag. A complete
mechanical review was completed once it was received at Car Cave
shop in Aiken, SC. The Defender did not need much as the previous
owner kept it in great condition. The Td5 engine runs exceptionally
well with plenty of power which suggests the previous owner made
some performance modifications that are not identifiable from
visual inspection.What is the Td5 you ask? The Td5 was released by
Land Rover in 1998 to meet stricter emissions standards. This was a
ground-up redevelopment of a Land Rover's diesel engine code named
Project Storm. The freshly redesigned 2.5L (2498 cc) Inline-5
cylinder Garrett turbo charged cast iron diesel featured electronic
injection. Still not enough power? Car Cave can offer a full range
of performance upgrades to get your Defender screaming down the
road. Read our reviews on Google and see what Steve has to say
about his Td5 build!The Defender showed up in great condition and
the body has all the factory spot welds with a well done recent
respray. Kirk (one of our highly skilled mechanics) went through
the Defender mechanically with approximately $7000 of work
completed since arriving in the US. The maintenance included new
tires, rear a-frame ball joint, hazard switch, brake lamp switch,
gauge cluster lights, fuel filter, oil filter, turbo oil return
line, turbo gasket, oil change, and wipers. We replaced all the
gearbox fluids including front differential, rear differential,
transmission, and transfer box with Amsoil fluids.Upgrades and
