Highlights:

5 Spd R380 Manual Transmission
Custom Leather Interior
Mach 5 Wheels
Shown here is a Defender 90 Soft Top with a recent repaint, custom leather interior, and a new Exmoor Trim Soft top. The Defender was sourced out Sarrians France from a Monsieur Olivier. This Defender came from the dry French southeastern climate of Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region which is evident upon inspection. Originally sold new on December 12, 1997 in France. This Defender has stayed well preserved over the years due to the dry southern French climate in the same area regionally as Spain and Italy.
This 1997 Land Rover Defender 90 300TDI is shown with a Coniston Olive Green exterior featuring a Black Exmoor Trim Canvas top. The interior seating surfaces are finished in a Chocolate Fluted high grade leather with black rubber floormats found throughout. We kept the color combinations to green, black, and chocolate as to not have too many competing colors or patterns. The center console features an integrated Marshall Bluetooth speaker. The aftermarket Clarion CD player is not functional and can be replaced at the buyer’s request. We find the Bluetooth speakers to be a much better option and removable once you reach your destination. ok. A set of 235/85R16 Cooper Discoverer S/T Max tires wrap around a Mach 5 Black 5-Spoke 16" Wheels. The 300TDI diesel engine runs properly and 5-Speed manual transmission shifts correctly through the gears. We completed a complete review of the Defender and performed maintenance as needed when it arrived in our shop. Here at Car Cave, we regularly drive our inventory and clock an average several hundred test miles on each Defender. Please contact us to review the history file including the French technical inspection. Previous owner had a new timing belt installed plus the differential, transmission, and transfer box fluids changed less than 1200 miles ago.
No other 4x4 vehicle has the pedigree and a track record like Land Rover. Not only was it one of the first, it remains the world’s pre-eminent on and off-road vehicle, exhilarating to drive, highly reliable, and easy to maintain. The Defender 90 features the high performance 300TDI 2.5L Turbo Diesel mated to the bulletproof 5 Speed Manual R380 Transmission. Direct injection technology coupled with a turbocharger gives improved diesel economy with even greater power, torque, longevity, and reliability. It provides high performance on-road with the capability to tackle the worst off-road conditions, in nearly every driving environment in the world.
