This Land Rover Defender was hand built at the Solihull factory in the United Kingdom in 1989 it was factory hand built with a 2.5 turbo diesel engine with the LT77 manual 5 speed gearbox. This particular vehicle has been used and loved by its previous owner in Italy, I imported the vehicle my self and it currently has a clean Arizona title. This vehicle is in remarkable condition and runs and drives well, it has minor oil leaks which is very common with the Land Rover Defender model as these vehicles are commonly used in harsh off road conditions. If you have any further comments or questions please call Matthew at 928-273-4341.
Whats a Land Rover Defender Like To Drive ?
It’s an experience you’ll never forget. Some drivers will love it, others will be so shocked they’ll bail out and run a mile. Each new engine brought improvements in performance and refinement, but even the current Defenders can be considered noisy, uncomfortable and unresponsive by the standards of a modern SUV. That would be missing the point, though. These are serious off-road machines, built to tackle any terrain using a manually operated four-wheel drive system with high and low ratios for when the going gets really tough. Nothing can beat it in the rough stuff.
The short wheelbase 90 model has a choppy ride; the long-wheelbase 110 feels like a bus. Steering response, braking performance and vehicle stability all require a certain adjustment in driving style. But you learn to live with its quirks and many owners say there’s nothing they’d rather drive.
