200tdi Defender 90 newly restored
1985 Land Rover Defender
This 1985 Land Rover 90 is a left-hand-drive example that was imported to the US from Italy under previous ownership before I purchased it in 2022. A subsequent multi-year refurbishment involved refinishing the chassis, fitment of replacement doors, and a repaint in white with a black roof as well as installation of a 2.5-liter 200Tdi turbodiesel inline-four and overhauls of the suspension and brake systems. The truck is equipped with a five-speed manual transmission, a dual-range transfer case, a locking center differential, Terrafirma shocks, and 16″ steel wheels along with a Mountney steering wheel, a custom stereo system, and front bucket seats trimmed in gray patterned cloth with vinyl sides. This Defender 90 is now offered with refurbishment photos and a clean Oregon title in the seller’s name. One of the cleanest you will find with completely issue-free operation.
