1997 Land Rover Defender 110 Pickup, 2.5l Turbo Diesel, 5 Sp, AC, New Paint/ Int

This 1997 Land Rover Defender 110 Pickup started life as a Malaysian-spec rig that was used as a rural commuter-rig for years before being taken off the road and refurbished in the last 2 years before being recently imported into the US. It is finished in Arles Blue over Black upholstery and is powered by a 2.5l turbo diesel inline-4 paired with a five-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case. Equipment includes refinished steel 10-hole wheels, leatherette upholstery and dash, upgraded stereo, aftermarket alarm and AC.

The truck is finished in Arles Blue and features fresh exterior paint and bed lining. Trim and seals were replaced when available and original components were refinished as needed. Additional equipment includes refinished 15 inch steel wheels wrapped in new all-terrain tires, front bumper, dual-latching tailgate and aftermarket side steps. Overall fit and finish of the exterior leaves the impression of a quality driver example.

The interior features bucket seats trimmed in black leatherette along with an accompanying dash in the same material.. Additional amenities include aftermarket stereo and speakers, AC with under dash-venting, alarm and power locks. The original logo bound steering wheel frames white instrumentation including a 120-mph speedometer, auxiliary gauges, and an analogue tachometer that indicates zero miles as it was just swapped in and has not been adjusted to the chassis' correct miles (113625 miles).

The Defender is powered by a 2.5-liter turbodiesel inline-4 providing power through a five-speed manual transmission, a dual-range transfer case. We put the truck in our shop and did a front end overhaul to ensure the brakes, bearings and axles were in full working shape and ready for the next owner. Additional photos of the underside are available in the gallery.

All in all this is a fun and unique Rover that is ready for adventure. Any further questions please call Jon at 480-703-2337. The car is located in Sunny Mesa, Arizona and all local buyers must pay 8.3% local sales tax plus $499 document fee.
