Land Rover Defender

110 Original V8

1992 Land Rover Defender 110 powered by the original 3.5L Rover V8 producing 138 bhp

The Land Rover car design takes us back to a beach in Wales, just after WW2. The very beginning of Land Rover itself is the fabled story of brothers Maurice and Spencer Wilks, sketching out the simple design of what would become an enduring and iconic classic 4WD vehicle. A simple design, because times were hard. Cause, well, the war. Materials, even the most basic ones, were hard to come by.

Hard times require a vehicle that is tough as nails. But with a dash of fun thrown in. Ready to tear up the nearest dirt road or a quick jaunt into town. Yes, even in winter. This is after all a car for hard men/women/people. However you identify, you can find yourself in this beautiful beast. Coping with hard times and having some fun doing it is in its bones. 73 years after its conception it is relevant as ever. Even if you don’t want to go hauling livestock. You can always drive it to the next Woodstock.

The example which we are presenting here today certainly looks ready for any type of adventure! We found her in a dry, southern European climate, where she spent all of her life. And the best part is that she is an original 3.5L V8! Every Defender owner dreams of the unicorn V8 engine.

You do not often come across a Defender 110 with an original V8 these days anymore. She is finished in this faded baby blue colour, which presents well. Inside you will find an original interior with original seats, steering wheel, etc. We believe she was used to going on adventurous tours with tourists, hence the rear benches. She is an honest Defender with a great look and feel.

As she spent her life in southern Europe, she has a clean body and a solid chassis. She runs well but needs a mechanical overhaul. A perfect original V8 project to be upgraded by her next owner. She is a very solid base to improve on.

Don’t miss your chance to own such an adventurous example of a very iconic car. Get in touch for more information and a test drive. We also offer white glove delivery to the United States through Car Cave USA, based in Aiken, South Carolina.
