Defender 110 Assessment

A very original and unmolested 1985 Land Rover 110 3.5lt V8 County Station Wagon, finished in Land Rover Masai Red with an Apline White roof, which can only be described as simply a beautiful combination. It's a genuine V8 CSW, fitted with power steering and disk brakes. This is one sought after 110 CSW in 11-seater specification. Being an early 110 it's very rare now and looks stunning. It drives and performs just like a classic Land Rover should. It's a joy to drive and creates waves and attention wherever it goes, a true, iconic and original Land Rover 110!As with any older vehicle, please expect a few flaws and imperfections that come with age and mileage. It still has a current MOT (British road safety test); every vehicle in the UK must pass a MOT each year (not required for the USA but completed regardless). Which ultimately shows you have a roadworthy, safe and competent vehicle that is road legal to drive.

This 110 is in excellent running and driving condition. The Defender starts easily and runs smoothly with every turn of the key. The vehicle sounds and drives supremely well, the V8 engine sounds lovely and pulls strongly. The vehicle's road manners are what you would expect from an old Land Rover. The suspension feels tight and well sorted, steering and braking perform to satisfaction, as they should.The engine makes great power and feels strong throughout the power band.Low-end torque is impressive.The engine keeps perfect temperature and excellent oil pressure at all times. All the lights, dials,originalclock, wipers and heater blowerworkas they should.The interior cloth seats are clean and show well throughout. Comes complete with five original forward seats and two foldable rear bench seats that can fit six, making it an eleven-seater vehicle. Simplistic dash with all original dials and speedo in MPH. Headliner is in great shape with no sagging.Overall this Land Rover is in great mechanical condition and operates exactly as it should and is ready for its next adventure!

Engine-This Defender is factory fitted with matching VIN 3.5lt V8 Petrol (Gas) engine that starts up every time. It feels firm and sounds solid, as it should. This V8 engine has covered 152k original miles - which is low considering its age.The engine sounds and drives like a monster of a V8 should. The V8 sitsnicelyin a very clean engine bay. Time has shown these Defenders are unbreakable if they are maintained and driven properly over the years.

Service & Maintenance History-Just serviced with a new oil and filter change, front & rear diff fluid, all undercarriage chassis points, prop shaft and U-joints freshly greased at 152K miles. New distributer and wires installed. New choke and fuel lines replaced. Some service documented history. Just serviced at an independent Land Rover specialist, clutch fluid flush and fill.

Body & Exterior-The Defender is much loved for its rugged construction, simple mechanics, and all around basic simplicity. The exterior still has a nice deep shine and overall the bodywork is great, being an old 'Landy' of course you can expect a couple minor dents here and there, but nothing of concern. Complete withoriginalCSW side stripes. This Defender looks stylish sitting nicely on 16" factory Land Rover modular 8 spoke steel rims with Firestone Super All Traction tires. Spare wheel attached to the rear door. The bulkhead is strong; the frame is solid and the crossmemeber is sturdy. Underneath the chassis has been previously well waxoilyd for protection. Justa very nice clean, strong and honest example of a classic 110 with nothing to hide (see photos & video walk through).Overall this Land Rover is in great condition and operates exactly as it should and is ready for its next adventure!

Interior-The interior has Exmoor brown/beige herringbone cloth that is in a very good condition. The interior of this vehicle is very standard and basic but clean. Simplistic dash with no rips or tears all original dials with the speedometer in MPH. Rear cloth bench seats that can fit six passengers. Center cubby box with storage. Headliner is very clean with no sagging. Floor pans are nice and solid, fronts have had somepreviousweldingwork done.

Brakes & Running Gear-All the brakes and running gear work properly, the disc brakes and parking brake hold the vehicle as it is meant to. Equipped with powered-assisted steering, which really makes it fun and a pleasure to drive for an old Land Rover. Clutch operates correctly, the original gearbox shifts work properly and it does not make any strange noises. All-wheel drive with high and low ranges all work correctly.
