The Land Rover Defender is sought after worldwide, but in the States, it’s somewhat of a rarity thanks to import restrictions. However, some did indeed make it across the pond, in both 110 (long wheelbase) and 90 (short wheelbase) forms. The Land Rover Defender is a direct descendant of the original Series Land Rovers, which were made popular worldwide thanks to their off-road abilities and the proliferation of the model by the British forces. Our featured car is a 1995 Land Rover Defender 90 series, with a reported 107,000 miles on the clock and several aftermarket additions. Some of the modifications made channel its safari-bound ancestors, with a soft top, external roll cage, and safari seating.
Finished in black, this 1995 Land Rover Defender 90 sits on aftermarket 18-inch wheels wrapped in new tires that are reported to have been installed 1,200 miles ago, with plenty of life remaining. The exterior features a black brush guard and matching external roll cage. You’ll also find side steps, which will likely double as rock sliders and checkered metal plating is attached to the lower portion of the vehicle. Up front, there’s checkered metal plating on the bonnet and tops of the fenders, while you’ll also find additional Land Rover-branded auxiliary lights. Inside this 1995 Land Rover Defender is a custom interior featuring safari seating and diamond-stitched upholstery. The owner reports that the original dashboard is retained, and an Exmoore cubby box is installed, too. A replacement ignition switch is reported as new, and the car is supplied with two keys. Special attention has been paid to the audio system, with this Defender featuring an aftermarket stereo with headless Bluetooth. Speakers consist of two JL Audio speakers in the doors, and two more in the rear. Two custom JL Audio subwoofers are mounted under the seating to take care of the bass. Meanwhile, the audio is driven courtesy of a JL Audio amplifier that has been installed out of sight in the glovebox.
Under the hood of the 1995 Land Rover Defender lies a 3.9-liter V8 engine. Specific to North American Land Rover Defenders, this Rover-sourced V8 engine design originally started life as that of a Buick. The owner reports that the Defender retains its original manual transmission.

If there was one machine that immediately represents the art and joy of off-roading you can rest assured that a Land Rover Defender would be a top contender. For over 50 years this British icon has helped push the envelope in terms of exploring the great unknown. Representing the off-road icon today is none other than this 1995 Land Rover Defender 90. With a reported 72,000 miles on the clock, this low mileage example can be yours to experience an authentic Defender experience in all its glory.
There is a dedicated group of enthusiasts who swear by a Land Rover Series, or Land Rover Defender. Produced since 1948, the Land Rover Series became the Defender in late 1990, when Land Rover switched to a new naming convention for their models. While the Series underwent hundreds of updates throughout its life, including during its Defender time, the external appearance of the vehicle remains roughly similar. This 1996 Land Rover Defender 90 is no different; park it next to a 1948 Series 1 and you’ll immediately notice the similarities. But, there are several differences too. This vehicle has done just under 700 miles after undergoing a comprehensive full frame up restoration including a conversion to left-hand drive for easier driving in the United States.
SUVs have changed a fair amount in the past few decades. Many of the once rough and tough desert trailblazers capable of climbing mountains at a moment’s notice have gone soft. Only suited to the parking lot of the local Mall of America. However, this 1991 Land Rover Defender 90 holds true to SUVs of before. With the initial design dating back to 1948, Land Rover knew how to make a rugged workhorse that could do it all.

In 1948, the Rover Company of Britain was gearing up for the post-war period. One of their bright ideas was to create a light, utilitarian and capable off-roader that could be used for agricultural, as well as other purposes. They were inspired by what Willys was doing with the Jeep across the pond. In fact the very first Land Rover Series prototype used a Jeep chassis and a Rover engine. The production version, of course, was Land Rover’s own design, and was called the Series I. As time passed by, it became the Series II, Series III, and gained the Defender name by 1990. Although the vehicle underwent hundreds of changes during its several decades of production, its basic shape and purpose remained true to the original. That’s why you can easily see similarities between a 1948 Series I and this 66,000-mile 1994 Land Rover Defender 110 that’s up for sale today. This six-seat vehicle is thus a great way to explore the myriad trails across America, in a vehicle that’s built for the purpose.

Jeep is well-known for making capable off-roaders, but did you know that they also make pickup trucks? The Gladiator is their current contender in the segment, but between 1986 and 1992, the Comanche held the torch. Based on the Cherokee of the time, the Comanche competed in the compact pickup truck segment. Naturally, it packed the same off-road abilities. So if you’re interested in picking up a relatively modern classic pickup truck with a difference, check out this 20,077-mile 1986 Jeep Comanche that we’re offering for sale. The truck comes with all maintenance up to date, for added peace of mind.
Chevrolet pickup trucks are some of the most sought-after classic trucks on the market, with their designs being wistful memories of a bygone era. Our featured 1955 Chevrolet 3100 is exactly that: an honest American workhorse hero that has received some extra love and attention after years of work. Having undergone a full restoration, which includes a rebuilt engine and an all-new rear end, this classic Chevy is available for sale in New Iberia, Louisiana. With a 235ci Straight 6 engine under the hood and a host of newly replaced parts, this truck could be the perfect addition to a collection, or the ideal starter classic for anyone interested in characterful pickups.
Ford’s epic sport utility vehicle, the Bronco is one of the Blue Oval’s most desirable vehicles in North America. When it debuted in 1965, Ford had a hard time keeping up with demand. Then, when they discontinued it in 1996, they were lucky that there weren’t crowds with pitchforks gathered outside their headquarters. Thankfully, the Bronco is back, and selling once again like hot cakes. However, if you want a classic Bronco, there are five fantastic generations to pick from. This 1972 Ford Bronco comes from the very first generation, and is an excellent example of what made the Bronco so sought after. Having undergone a frame-off build by Gateway Bronco in Hamel, Illinois, this vehicle is up for sale.
