The Land Rover Defender has gained a name for itself all over the world as a supremely capable off-roader. With a glorious history dating back to 1948’s Land Rover Series 1, the classic Defender maintains much of its ancestor’s styling cues. However, it’s vastly different under the skin. The Defender name came about in 1991 with two variants. The 90 variant was a short wheelbase two-door affair, while the 110 sported four doors and a longer wheelbase. The numbers do refer to the wheelbase size in inches. So, this 1997 Land Rover Defender 90 has a 90-inch (approximate) wheelbase and is a two-door machine. The current owner tells us it’s received regular servicing and maintenance and a more powerful engine.
This 1997 Land Rover Defender 90 cuts a fine figure in its white suit, punctuated by its 18-inch custom black wheels. Furthermore, the vehicle sports a partial roof rack, plus ladders to access this feature. We also see that the headlamps have been upgraded to more modern units. The interior of this 1997 Land Rover Defender 90 features Lecari leather front seats and rear jump seats, plus Exmoor trim. Then, there’s an Alcantara headliner, functional air conditioning, and a custom Boss touchscreen head unit with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capabilities. We also spy some upgraded speakers, as well as what appears to be a subwoofer in the rear. But, in other ways, this 1997 Land Rover Defender 90 is very classic, with its wind-up windows and old-school analog gauge cluster.
This 1997 Land Rover Defender 90 has received an interesting engine upgrade. Beneath its purposeful-looking hood lurks a recently reconditioned Rover 4.6L V8 engine. This will no doubt provide more power than the turbodiesel engines that this era of Defender came with from the Land Rover factory. Another neat feature is the automatic gearbox in this 1997 Land Rover Defender 90, making driving easier for those who aren’t accustomed to stick shifts. Don’t worry; it’s still four-wheel drive and has a transfer case. It also has new brakes and rotors, suspension, and springs.

A true hero of British off-roading, the classic Land Rover Defender can directly trace its lineage all the way back to the Series I of 1948. In fact, you can trace that lineage for yourself by Googling up images of both and placing them side-by-side. Then, you’ll see that the appearance is nearly identical. However, the two aren’t that similar under the skin. Land Rover made hundreds of improvements over the years. That’s why many people who want a classic Land Rover but still prefer some modern features in a sturdy, off-road-friendly package pick a Defender. So, why not choose this plucky short-wheelbase 1987 Land Rover Defender as your off-road companion? The vehicle has traveled a healthy 167,000 miles but has also received plenty of TLC, ensuring that it stays fresh.
The Land Rover Defender is a legend among off-road circles no matter where you may be in the world. With a rich heritage that can be directly traced back to 1948’s Land Rover Series I, the Defender is known as a mountain goat. Furthermore, it’s most potent in short-wheelbase 90 form. Hence, if you want a go-anywhere machine with plenty of creature comforts, we present this 1994 Land Rover Defender 90 200Tdi for your consideration. It may have 168,000 miles on the odometer, but it’s received a comprehensive makeover, and, we dare say it, is even better than it would have been when brand-new.

The Land Rover Defender is an iconic British off-roader for multiple reasons. Firstly, it boasts a glorious lineage back to 1948’s Series 1, and that’s obvious for anyone to see from its design. The design is so iconic that 2020’s “New Defender” includes plenty of styling cues that pay homage to the original. But there’s so much more to a classic Defender like this 1999 Land Rover Defender 110 TD5. The vehicle packs bags of off-road capabilities, allowing you to explore America’s great wilderness with confidence. This particular vehicle has reportedly received a complete restoration, making it as fresh as one can expect from a Defender. So why not add it to your garage and enjoy the great outdoors like no other SUV can do?
The Range Rover is a luxurious and premium large SUV with baked-in off-road capability. The Autobiography trim is a trim level which adds several sought-after items that luxury buyers will appreciate. There’s a lot on offer with this particular 2020 Land Rover Range Rover Autobiography LWB. It only has 36,700 miles on its clock and boasts the Overfinch Specification and the Limited Edition Velocity Bodystyling Package.

The Chevrolet Tahoe is the Bowtie brand’s full-size SUV offering. Since 1992, the Tahoe has represented a go-anywhere sport utility vehicle that could carry the average American family across the country in comfort, dog and all. With excellent off-road credentials, the Tahoe could take the path less travelled, too. Now we’re on the fifth generation, but there are some fantastic older ones available too. Take this first-generation 1997 Chevrolet Tahoe LT as a prime example. Extensively modified, this off-road ready beast has a significant 265,000 miles on the clock but don’t let that put you off. It’s been well looked after, and in your care, can easily double or even triple that mileage without major woes.
It is apparent that an obvious recent trend in the car industry is the love for SUVs. People who have them, love them. People who don’t, want them. But perhaps SUVs of late are more suited to mall parking lots than a rough trail leading to a good fishing spot. Go back a few decades and you’ll find out what SUVs were really about. This 1987 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60 with just 93,000 miles on the odometer is not the vehicle you choose if you want to drive over the curbs at your local mall. This thing can take you to places other cars shiver at the mere thought of.
