50th Anniversary limited edition 1998 2. 5l 300Tdi Land Rover Defender 90 County hard top. Rebuilt with a Marsland GALVANISED CHASSIS. Not to be confused with the 50th Anniversary petrol V8s, these Defenders were a limited edition commercial hard top model for Land Rover's 50th Anniversary year, and some of the last produced using the 300tdi engine. One of only 80 of 200 made, with 80 in Cobar Blue, 70 in Rioja Red and 50 in Woodcote Green. (See the book "Land Rover Defender, 90 & 110 Range" by James Taylor, published 2013, Crowood Press, page 158 for further details.) Includes factory-fitted sunroof, full length roof lining, alpine roof lights, grey carpet, and rubber load liner, the interior also consists of Rayleigh grey cloth seats, aluminium gear knobs and window winders, along with a perforated leather trim steering wheel. The exterior is finished in metallic Cobar Blue paint with chequer plate, complete with Land Rover builders' plate on rear. Later additions include an immobiliser, centre cubby box, Alpine radio with 6 CD changer, tinted rear windows, an A bar with Ring 7 inch spot lamps, as well as a steering guard with recovery shackles. The wheels are not original, but are very similar freestyle alloys that have been colour coated. Tyres are Cooper Discoverer STT size 265/ 75R16. Rebuilt by Strathearn Engineering with a Marsland galvanised chassis in 2018, with much work done to the bottom end such as the suspension and brakelines replaced. It had a new clutch fitted last year. Includes a High-Lift jack. In current ownership since 2006, with service history since then. Two sets of keys. Current mileage is 129, 000. MOT valid until June 2022.
