This exceptional 1998 Land Rover Defender 110 is a true representation of classic British automotive heritage. Freshly refurbished, it boasts the rare and vibrant Caledonian Blue exterior, complemented by an Alpine White roof and matching Land Rover steel wheels. The striking blue paint comes alive in sunlight, making this Defender a standout in any setting. With only two previous owners, it presents a rare opportunity for collectors and enthusiasts alike. Under the hood lies the iconic 300Tdi turbo diesel engine, known for its legendary reliability and off-road prowess. Paired with the rugged R380 5-speed manual transmission, this Defender offers a truly engaging and responsive driving experience. This proven combination brings together the best of classic Land Rover character with the comfort and capability to handle everything from highway cruising to everyday driving with ease. With just 107k miles, it remains in excellent mechanical and cosmetic condition, ready to provide years of adventure. For the true classic Land Rover experience, choose right-hand drive. RHD Defenders stay true to their British roots, offering a more natural, spacious feel behind the wheel. Left-hand drive versions, often converted, can feel awkward, cramped, and lose that original charm. With right-hand drive, you get an authentic driving experience that’s engaging from the start. It takes just a moment to adjust, but the added character and satisfaction last every time you’re behind the wheel. This is how a classic Land Rover is meant to be driven—pure, authentic, and unmistakably Land Rover.

The exterior features classic styling upgraded with foldable sidesteps, a galvanized front bumper, and Land Rover steel wheels. A full respray in the original Caledonian Blue was completed with meticulous attention to detail. All doors and the hood were removed, painted separately, and reinstalled with new hardware, including door seals, door hinges, door bolts, and window seals. Inside, the Country Trim offers comfort and practicality with grey seating and rear bench seats, accommodating up to the max, 12 passengers. The cabin features alpine windows, a sunroof, and all working essentials, including lights, heater, wipers, radio and horn. Off-road features like the diff lock and 2-speed transfer case are easily accessible. Power steering and disc brakes on all four wheels ensure modern drivability and control. The chassis, bulkhead, and doorframes are in great condition, reflecting the care and maintenance this vehicle has received. This 1998 Land Rover Defender 110 blends timeless design with rugged capability, making it the ideal companion for both daily driving and any off-road adventures. Don’t miss the chance to own this iconic piece of classic British motoring history.
