This 1992 Land Rover Defender 90 is a right hand drive diesel-powered example that underwent a cosmetic restoration in the UK before it was imported to the United States in April of 2017. It was refinished in Green with a matching hardtop over a black cloth interior, and received diamond-plate accents on the rocker panels and fenders, new door locks, and door hinges with stainless steel hardware. Power comes from a 2.5L turbo diesel inline-four mated to a manual transmission and is said to be a strong runner. All import documents will be included in the sale along with a UK MOT certificate, with the truck currently registered using a clean Georgia title in the seller’s name.

The truck underwent a cosmetic restoration including a glass-out repaint by the dealer it was purchased from in the UK. Diamond-plate accents were added to the rocker panels and fenders, and no major flaws have been noted in the paint finish.

This is a right-hand drive example that has retained the original cloth interior and recieved some updates during the restoration. Dynamat sound deadening was added to the rear hatch area, new carpet and floor mats were installed, and the ignition switch and ignition lock were replaced. Some creasing and looseness is visible on the driver-side seat bottom and the odometer shows roughly 150,000 miles.
