CURRENT INVENTORY

---

This Defender 110 Heritage tribute has undergone a complete nut, bolt, frame off, drivetrain and mechanical restoration. Complete with the legendary 300Tdi and R380 gearbox. Its correctly finished in heritage Land Rover Grasmere Green, matching 16” Wolf steel wheels and a complimentary Alaska White roof.  It's not only unique, but also exceptionally sharp. The gearbox, engine and all auxiliary components have been stripped down and been fully rebuilt with only break in miles showing. Land Rovers went everywhere, did everything, were used by everyone and along the way became a uniquely classless automobile, even today, that mud spattered Defender you spot in an English village could belong to the local farmer, a rock star, or a member of the Royal Family. Sir Winston Churchill drove a Land Rover, so did Steve McQueen. To celebrate 67 years of production and the conclusion of the "Defender", Land Rover built a limited number of 2015 Heritage Editions. This 1994 Defender 110 was restored as a tribute to the 2015 Heritage Edition “HUE” Defender; it was a frame-off, multi-year and labor of love build. With its classic style and historical significance this is our homage and purpose built tribute to the now legendary "HUE 166" Land Rover. 

As the name suggests, this Land Rover pays tribute to its past, but the celebration goes beyond 1983, the first 90/110 models released. For the original Heritage Edition, Land Rover turned to the "HUE 166," the company’s very first production vehicle, the Land Rover Series 1 SUV. It was in the summer of 1947 that Maurice Wilks (then technical chief of Rover) came up with the idea of a world-conquering vehicle to kick-start exports for the ailing Rover car company. The first of the prototypes rolled out of the factory on March 11, 1948. “HUE 166” affectionately called “Huey” must be the most famous Land Rover ever, the first and biggest hall of fame Land Rover as it were. The small two-door off-roader registered with the license plate "HUE 166" in Britain kick-started the SUV that would keep in production to 2016. HUE 166 is the worlds’ oldest Land Rover and yes its still around today! Huey is owned and cared for by Jaguar Land Rover. With its worth far greater than the sum of its green-painted parts, this Land Rover has indeed become something of a celebrity and is frequently wheeled out, especially when Land Rover launches a new model. And its shape, which has become one of the most recognizable in the world, remains fundamentally unaltered in the form of the aptly named Defender. Huey serves as a poignant reminder that when a basic design is right in the first place, there's little point in changing it. 

While it retains the boxy design and the overall features of a regular Defender, the more modern Heritage Edition benefits from a host of unique exterior elements. First up is the Grasmere Green metallic paint job, which is complemented by an Alaska White roof. The Grasmere Green color is perfect in fact, encapsulating the era of classic Landies while still appearing quite fresh because it's unusual. The bespoke model is also equipped with body-colored wheel arches, a feature that adds distinction to this otherwise rugged utility vehicle. In a nod to the original HUE 166 Series, the Heritage Edition received a silver front bumper with black end caps, a bespoke front grille, body-colored headlamp surrounds, and body-colored steel wheels.

The reason for Land Rover’s success is obvious, a Land Rover, unlike any other vehicle, gives its occupants a sense of adventure. You really do feel as though you could go anywhere. It's a classless vehicle, too, and is equally at home in the urban jungle or in the wilds of Borneo. Land Rovers give their occupants an enormous sense of well being. Another reason for Land Rover's success is that while the brand has diversified with a range of vehicles from the humble Defender and Freelander to the ubiquitous Discovery and the upmarket Range Rover, the marque produced vehicles that defined a class. None has ever been compromised when it comes to off-road ability - something that cannot be said for their rivals. Any Land Rover is now recognized across the globe and over time the original has proved to be the most versatile of all vehicles - you name it and a Land Rover has probably done it.

The foundation of this rebuild is a much stronger, newer and lighter TDCI chassis (frame) that was re-engineered to take the 300tdi engine and R380 gearbox. It was then completely media blasted, etch primed and powder coated. Engine, gear & transfer boxes, differentials, steering box, drive shafts, flanges and swivels have been dissembled, cleaned and rebuilt with any warn components replaced with OEM parts. This truck sits on all new suspension shocks and springs with new poly bushes throughout. Along with new heavy-duty Wolf steel wheels that are wrapped in A/T tires. The interior is retro LR oval logos but with new headliner, new seat foams throughout covered in OEM Land Rover upholstery and matching forward facing third row seats all with seat belts. Front Acoustic rubber matting and floor matts perfectly compliments the rugged nature of this truck and provides easy cleaning. For added comfort the latest spec TDCI Puma air-conditioning kit has been installed that functions through the existing dashboard outlets (feet vents have been turned to blow cold air up). An audio Pioneer bluetooth/aux head unit with phone mount and pod speakers has been installed.

Life’s too short to drive boring cars

We are proud to present a very historic 1986 Land Rover 110, having served in the British Army as a Fitted For Radio (FFR) service vehicle from May 1986 until its retirement in September 2002. This is a nice example of an Ex-MOD Left Hand Drive (LHD) Defender 110. It's an original left hand drive, 2.5 diesel with a 5-speed transmission. These radio-equipped vehicles are also in far better shape than the standard "General Service" units as they led a fairly easy life's during there Military use, normally carrying sensitive and delicate radio equipment. Being an Ex-Military vehicle, it's very simple, robust and easy to maintain. The diesel engine is Land Rover's legendary 2.5 liter naturally aspirated, mechanically injected, super simple which offers bulletproof reliability, it even has the added luxury of power steering. It's complete with a new Exmoor Trim black canvas (with side windows) soft top and Safety Devices Roll Cage - Internal Rear Heavy Duty Hood Stick set. It also has an enclosed pick up cab offering the best of both worlds configurations, hard top cab and soft top. Both the soft top and pick up cab will be included in the sale. In the back it comes complete with rear 3 bench seats and cargo space (a 4th bench can be fitted if needed). To make it the ultimate cruiser. 

This vehicle still enjoys the military period correct features being finished in military NATO flat Green, side storage compartments and hood mounted spare wheel. Complete with twin front seats and a center cubby box. The 2.5-diesel engine reads 116,416 kilometers on the odometer, which is equivalent to 72,337 miles. Military Land Rovers are maintained to the highest of standards with no expense spared to keep them running in the best shape possible during military service. If you're Looking for a show pony or garage queen....then this 110 is not for you. Dents you say, sure we can add more free of charge. This is one rugged and badass 110. The bodywork is rough, tough and rugged, its finished in Military NATO green paintwork with a few battle scars and dents to show, which only add to its overall character and charm. If it’s good enough for the British Army, then it sure is going to be good enough for you. The main focal point for this old Land Rover has always been concentrated on the mechanics, structure and undercarriage, which for an old Land Rover will always be the most important and crucial aspects. The bulkhead, footwells are underneath the chassis is completely solid and has had zero welding carried out and no rot. It’s quite incredible for a 34-year-old 110. The interior cabin is a clean and smart place to be, simple and yet capable. If you are looking for a vintage Land Rover that will be easy and simple to maintain, then this ole 110 is worth considering.

It was purchased and owned in 2016 by UK Land Rover specialists LR-XS where they set about rebuilding the 110. During its time there, much mechanical service work, including bushes, ball joints, bearings and swivels have all had a good going over with many new parts replaced. During the work the body was removed from chassis and all chassis and running gear stripped back and freshly painted and mechanical parts where changed if required. It also has factory power steering, which is very rare for an early Ex-Military Land Rover. The vehicle is powered by a Land Rover 2.5 diesel engine, mated to a 5-speed LT77 manual gearbox, it may be slow but the original engine will serve you very well if speed is not a requirement, hence why the Military continued to use them for so long. It fires up readily with minimal smoke and will cruise at 55-65mph happily, even if it does take a while to get there. The gearbox and clutch work fine, selecting all five gears, and brakes work, as they should. The Land Rover spent between 2002 and 2008 abroad in the sunny and dry parts of Spain/Portugal albeit as a second car whilst the owner was working there. So it has been benefiting from being in a nice dry climate, which is always good for a Land Rover. With the precision of Military maintenance and a dry climate the undercarriage is in superb condition.

Being an Ex-British Army spec Land Rover it's very minimalistic and simple, just the way we like them so you can enjoy the driving experience of this 110 to the max. With a tough-as-nails look that's practically begging to chew up trails or roam the wild, this British-built Land Rover pickup/soft top looks just about right. Not too perfect that you'd be scared to drive it, it's ideal for heading out into the wilderness to get some work done or for traversing the concrete jungle. It would make a perfect beach cruiser, mountain crawler or a weekend warrior to turn heads or to  drive around town. Head down to your local hardware store and see how many heads you turn, as there probably won't be another truck like it in the lot. Overall a very unique and cool Land Rover 110 that's ready to be enjoyed immediately. It’s ready for a whole new life here in the US in civilian hands. This 110 will not be for everyone, but it will not disappoint either, especially for a buyer looking for a “Life's too Short to Drive a Boring Car".

Why Buy a Military Land Rover?

The Military chassis are undercoated from new to prevent corrosion. Generally, they are much sturdier than their civilian counterparts, and have the added convenience of a removable gearbox cross-member, which makes repair and replacement of the gearbox a lot easier. 90/110/Defender models where fitted with the 2.5 diesel engines, with locking diffs, coil springs, and some with power steering. They are also fitted with “bumperettes”, which are smaller bumpers, which sit above the main front bumper, and stick out from the rear crossmember which generally protect the front and rear lights. Military land Rovers also had leather gaiters covering the axle swivels, so corrosion is unlikely there. The suspension is of a sturdier construction with heavy-duty shock absorbers. Various Land Rover models have been used in a Military capacity, most notably by the British Army and Australian Army. Modifications may included military "blackout" lights, heavy-duty suspension, uprated brakes, 24 volt electrics, convoy lights, electronic suppression of the ignition system, blackout curtains and mounts for special equipment and weapons. Military uses include light utility vehicle; communications platform; weapon platform for recoilless rifles, anti-tank guided weapons or machine guns; ambulances and workshops.  An adaptation of Land Rovers to military purposes is the "Pink Panther" models. Approximately 100 Series IIA models were adapted to reconnaissance use by British special operations forces, the SAS. For desert use they were often painted pink to aid concealment, hence the name. The vehicles were fitted with among other gear a sun compass, machine guns, larger fuel tanks and smoke dischargers. Similar adaptations were later made to Series IIIs and 90/110/Defenders. The 75th Ranger Regiment of the United States Army also adapted twelve versions of Land Rover 110's that were officially designated the Ranger Special Operations Vehicle. Land Rover has a pedigree like no other and is used by military forces throughout the world.

Life’s too short to drive boring cars

This purpose built and restored 1991 Land Rover Defender 90 is being offered on consignment for a local client. It was initially purchased from us in January 2020 but now our client is awaiting the arrival of an original and classic Land Rover Series I and does not have the space to keep them all, so unfortunately this D90 has to make room for the new arrival. A perfect cruiser with all the character and fun you need for that ultimate driving experience. It’s a very stunning Defender 90 finished in spectacular Land Rover Nara Bronze with a Piano Black roof. It’s a very modern and stylish looking Defender 90. Distinct, intimidating, and genuinely rugged, this Land Rover Defender 90 is the ideal 4x4 to take you on an adventure, but its also such a looker, that we know you'll enjoy it around town too. Complete with a fully rebuilt 200Tdi engine, gearbox, frame, suspension, axels, and whole lot more. During its build it was completely stripped down, disassembled, rebuilt, re-sprayed inside and out. This Defender underwent a complete overhaul in 2017 and had a full rebuild by a father and son team of Land Rover experts and passionate enthusiasts that made sure it had no expense spared, talk about a labor of love and it truly shows. The Defender has only covered 9861 miles since its rebuild a few years ago.

Another great reason to have a Land Rover built for a foreign country is under the hood. As the USA where never blessed with the diesel power plants and we all know diesel provides the best torque to get you through or over anything. It’s equipped with the sought after and legendary 200TDi engine with a five speed manual transmission, regarded by many in the Land Rover world as there best ever engine produced and has earned a tough-as-nails reputation. It comes equipped with LED lights all round, slim line roof rack, Safari bush wires, Safari snorkel, rock/tree sliders, KBX inserts and Hi-force KBX intakes and overall much more, with thousands of pounds (dollars) and hours having been invested into this Defender. The Defender 90 follows the grand tradition of tough-as-nails Land Rovers, and you recognize it from the moment this one comes into view. It looks ready to take on the toughest terrain. The updated front end gives this classic a modern facelift and there are even new doors and body panels for added straightness. The bronze paint has the terrific gloss of a more modern investment and the 16-inch black steel wheels rival the paint for a dark shine. So this one might be able to take you beyond the rail but it also knows how to turn heads, when rolling through the streets of downtown. 

A complete suspension overhaul was also installed with new bushings, Terrafirma springs and shocks all round. It sits on classic Land Rover 16” Modular steel wheels, wrapped in chunky Cooper Discoverer A/T tires. The rear cargo is complete with bench seats, which can fit 4 extra passengers with lap belts. Equipped with power steering and disc brakes reminds you that go-anywhere also means being easy to drive and ultimately fun to drive. This is a legendary 4x4 that has both style and substance. So if you want to go everywhere and look great doing so, this is the Defender to have. Overall a very stylish and refreshed Defender 90 that’s ready to be enjoyed off-road or on the urban streets immediately.
