At this point, the original Land Rover Defender is a British Institution, but bar a few examples that made it to the US in the 90s, this off-roading icon has largely remained out of the hands of American consumers. The good news, though, is that thanks to the 25-year import rule, we can now start to enjoy some of the best Defender models that the rest of the world has had access to. This 1998 MY Land Rover Defender TD5 RHD Restoration was imported from the United Kingdom and features the sought-after 2.5-liter inline five-cylinder diesel engine. It also features some choice upgrades that are bound to tickle the fancy of owners looking to enjoy an adventurous lifestyle.
Although a 1998 Land Rover Defender TD5 is typically found caked in mud, on the days that it isn’t, you’ll find it looks resplendent in its metallic green exterior finish. The boxy styling is trademark Defender, but there’s some curvature up front in the form of a chrome brush guard that features two aftermarket twin front driving lights that have been wired to operate on the vehicle’s high beams. Other exterior features include rear mudflaps from famed Land Rover specialist Britpart and a snorkel air intake to enable wading. The hood also features a rather attractive diamond checkered plate for added protection. There’s even a trailer hitch pre-installed. This 1998 Land Rover Defender TD5 rides on five-spoke, 16-inch alloy wheels with external Land Rover stamping. The rims are wrapped in brand-new BFGoodrich All-Terrain tires. While the interior of a Defender may not be the lap of luxury — for instance, you get manual locks and windows — everything is presented to the driver in a logical and thought-out manner. You’ll find manual air vents located beneath the windshield. Being an import from the United Kingdom, the off-roader is naturally right-hand driven. With 11 seats on offer, carrying a party of people will be no problem. The interior has been reupholstered in grey, with a new front jump seat.
This 1998 Land Rover Defender is powered by the almost legendary (amongst Land Rover enthusiasts) TD5 engine. This 2.5-liter turbocharged inline five-cylinder engine outputs a factory-rated 122 hp and 221 lb-ft of torque to all four wheels via a five-speed manual gearbox. The owner reports that the engine has received a recent oil change.

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.
SUVs have changed a fair amount in the past few decades. The once rough and tough desert trailblazers that could climb mountains at a moment’s notice have gone soft. Only suited to the parking lot of the local Mall of America. However, this 1997 Land Rover Defender 110 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 decided to create a sturdy, simple, and capable off-roader. They christened their creation the Land Rover, inspired by America’s Willy’s Jeep. Little did they know that this would soon become a hit across the world, and a cult icon. The Land Rover soon became the Land Rover Series, as consecutive years would see it upgraded and enhanced in myriad ways, while retaining much of its iconic design and basic purpose. In 1990, Land Rover renamed the model the Defender, in keeping with its new naming conventions. Available in multiple wheelbases, the 110 is the most popular, thanks to its five-door body and approximately 110-inch wheelbase. Yes, there’s a new Defender now, but it goes without saying that a classic Defender is one of the best ways to explorer the great outdoors. That’s why we’re glad to offer this 175,000-mile 1995 Land Rover Defender for sale. The vehicle was mechanically rebuilt by Land Rover of Austria in Vienna, Austria and comes with all rebuild receipts included in the sale. The paint is covered by a warranty until March 2025, and the vehicle also has a BMIHT certificate.
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.

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.

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.

With the initial design dating back to 1948, Land Rover knew how to make a rugged workhorse that could do it all.
The Chevrolet Silverado ZR2 is a mighty impressive offering in the truck market. What’s good about pickup trucks is that they double as a workhorse around your barn and a weekend off-road buddy. The Chevrolet Silverado is known to offer some tasty factory-installed features. On top of that, the ZR2 version brings you the off-road recipe originally cooked up for the mid-size Colorado ZR2. This version is available in two trim levels: the base ZR2 and the ZR2 Bison. Choosing the latter option lets you enjoy aesthetic updates that add to this truck's cool factor. That is why this 2024 Chevrolet Silverado ZR2 Bison is the perfect choice for those who are looking for a balance between work and play with their truck. With 25,235 miles on its clock, this Silverado awaits in Payson, Arizona for its next owner.
The Jeep Cherokee was Jeep’s bread-and-butter SUV for decades, running between 1974 and 2023. The vehicle started off as a body-on-frame design, and transitioned into a unibody type with the introduction of the second generation in 1984. This particular 1999 Jeep Cherokee is a fine second-generation variant that’s undergone an extensive built to turn it into what you see here. As if a standard Cherokee wasn’t potent enough, this one’s got everything turned up to eleven. It comes with just 500 miles since the build and the owner reportedly has receipts too.
Ford’s F-Series full-size pickup truck has been a mainstay of American life ever since it was born in 1948. One of the Blue Oval’s longest-running nameplates, the range initially started with the F-100. From 1984, the F-150 came about as the half-ton variant in the range. Since 1977, the F-Series has been the best-selling pickup truck in the United States. What’s more, you can find ferocious performance variants that can genuinely startle the average muscle car or sports car. Take this 2023 Ford F-150 Shelby Super Snake as a prime example. With well over 700 raging horses packed in a supercharged 5.0L V8, waiting to be unleashed, this 13,000-mile monster could be yours!
