Vehicle Description
*1995 Land Rover Defender 90*Although these days, Land Rover is
known for building luxurious, off road capable vehicles, that
hasn't always been the case. The off road aspect has always been a
key feature of the brand, but for the first decades, luxury took a
back seat to practicality and dependability. The Defender which
debuted in 1984, was really a refined version of the "Series"
trucks that the brand had built its name on since 1948. With some
additional luxuries, the Defender was just as at home navigating a
dirt track on the farm, as it was taking the family out to dinner
in town.This 1995 Land Rover Defender 90 wagon is an original left
hand drive European market example with a hard top. Finished in
Graphite Blue with a white roof, this car underwent a thorough
sorting by marque experts Brooklyn Coachworks in Brooklyn New York
in the Summer of 2021, where it was acquired by the owner. Where
most Defender upfitters add a suspension lift and enormous tires,
Brooklyn Coachworks focuses instead on refining a standard Defender
- making it more dependable and enjoyable, while still offering
some level of customization. The process includes hot-dip
galvanizing the chassis, using zinc coatings on the undercarriage,
swapping the doors for stronger Land Rover Puma TD4 units and
replacing all of the seals around the vehicle. The color of the
body, roof and wheels are all customer selected and this car sits
on a set of color-matched 15-inch Wolf steel wheels, which are
wrapped in BFGoodrich T/A KM3 tires with a matching spare on the
rear door.The interior has been upgraded with black leather wrapped
seats - with both the front two bucket seats, and both rear inward
facing benches - finished in black leather with quilted stitching.
The dashboard remains standard, just leather wrapped and the
original steering wheel is still in place, framing the simple
white-on-black gauge cluster. A Kenwood head unit has been fitted
with Bluetooth connectivity as well as dual auxiliary USB
connections to keep your devices charged.Powering this Land Rover
is one of the most sought after engines to come in the Defender
from the factory - the 300TDi turbo diesel inline 4. This engine
became notorious in period for its stout build quality and stump
pulling power and was one of the first diesels from Land Rover that
is easily able to cruise with modern traffic. Power is then sent
through a 5-speed manual gearbox to all four wheels with a locking
center differential. To ensure the car is easy to drive in town,
power disc brakes and power steering are fitted. Recently, the car
was sent to Defenders NW in Gig Harbor who completed a thorough
servicing that included a new fuel injection pump, new belts and a
new timing cover gasket to guarantee this truck runs at its best
for years to come.With the ever increasing popularity of classic
off-road vehicles, the Defender sits atop the rest as one of the
most capable and iconic vehicles ever built in the segment. This
example retains that classic ethos, but with a host of modern
upgrades, is much more pleasant to own and drive around town. If
you wanted to order a similar Defender of your own from Brooklyn
Coachworks, the cost exceeded $125,000 and will take months to
complete - skip the line and buy this excellent example at a nice
discount.*Key Features* * Built by Brooklyn Coachworks * Galvanized
