By combining outstanding off-road ability with an almost unrivalled heritage and unmistakable style, the Land Rover Defender became part of one of the longest-running model series in the world. The Defender was offered in a large range of body styles and configurations, with the van version of the 110 proving one of the most popular with those looking for plentiful space and go-anywhere capability.
 
This 2010 model is a two-door version with van sides, and was originally owned by the Northern Ireland Housing Executive. It benefits from the more refined interior that had been introduced three years earlier, and the seller states that recent improvements include the refurbishment of the seats and the replacement of window seals. The load space is fitted with seat squabs.
 
The exterior presents extremely well and has received a number of tasteful upgrades, including black five-spoke wheels, grille and headlight surrounds, window wind deflectors, chequer plate on the bonnet, wings and lower rear door, and both spotlights and working lights. Some rust is visible beneath the vehicle.
 
The seller states that the factory-standard engine starts as expected and is free of known faults. The car benefits from the fitment of a snorkel.
 
The seller states that the car “drives well and is smooth on the road”. This is a fine example of the original Defender that is ready to deliver practicality and off-road ability, coupled with an extra dose of style, to its new owner.
