By replacing its original chassis with a more costly galvanised item, this Land Rover has essentially been future-proof, as its highly unlikely to develop any corrosion underneath in all the usual areas. It is very reliable so it's a vehicle that is ready for any adventure whether it's a trip to the countryside or a challenging off-road exhibition.
This 1988 Land Rover originates from an interesting period in the company's history, as the first generation to significant updates like coil springs and a brand-new interior. Known simply as the '90's' and '110's' before the Defender moniker arrived in 1990, Land Rovers of this vintage are some of the most usable in the firm's classic line up and so remain immensely sought after. This one is eminently worthy of your consideration.
