Pre-bids

1996 Land Rover Defender 90

Highlights

  • Factory-fitted air conditioning, reportedly rare for a Defender of this age
  • Nearly £8,000 invested since 2020, including mechanical and cosmetic improvements
  • Garage-stored and serviced annually during nearly six years of current ownership
  • South African import, now registered on UK plates
  • MOT valid until September 2026

The Appeal

The Land Rover Defender 90 remains one of the most iconic and capable utility vehicles ever built, and South African-market examples are well-regarded among enthusiasts for their specification. After all, the dry climate not only results in solid, relatively rust-free cars, but often in factory-fitted air conditioning, which any seasoned Landy driver will tell you is a lifesaver!
Purchased by the current owner in July 2020, this Defender 90 has been garage-stored and serviced annually, with the owner's garage systematically working through items to bring the mechanical condition up to standard. Nearly £8,000 has been spent in total since 2020, split between mechanical improvements and a recent cosmetic refresh.

The vendor reports that the vehicle drives very well following all the work carried out, and is ready and waiting for its lucky new keeper.

BEFORE YOU BUY
This sale is subject to the Car & Classic Terms and Conditions. By bidding and/or making an offer, you also agree to the following:
✓ The seller is registered as a private seller which means consumer rights stemming from EU consumer protection law do not come into effect. However, you are still covered by Car & Classic’s own Terms and Conditions..
✓ We request that a non-refundable fee  be paid if you are the lucky winning bidder at auction or if your offer is accepted Please refer to our helpful FAQs and T&Cs for specific rates.
✓ This vehicle is “Sold As Seen”, on an “As Is Where Is’ basis and without warranty. Photos and descriptions are solely for guidance purposes and it's customary to carry out a full inspection of the vehicle prior to purchase for your own peace of mind.
✓ VAT is included in the buyer's fee. VAT may or may not be included in the final bid or offer price, as specified in the listing.
✓ We want a smooth transaction just as much as you do and as such we run all UK-registered cars and motorbikes for sale on Car & Classic through an online HPI check to verify that they show no insurance database markers for damage or theft, and have no finance owing, allowing you to bid with confidence.
✓ We also check whether vehicles are recorded as being written off as part of an insurance total loss claim at the time an advert is placed on Car & Classic and we helpfully provide write-off category labels (Cat C/D/S/N) for your assistance. However, the presence or absence of a label does not guarantee the vehicle’s status and it is always worthwhile carrying out your own  full vehicle history check before making an offer on a vehicle.
✓ Buyers are responsible for vehicle collection
