Description
Many have tried to challenge the Land Rover Defender’s reputation as the “best four-by-four by far”, but few have come close. Its unrivalled blend of go-anywhere capability, rugged durability and timeless character has made it an enduring icon. By the time the Defender name was introduced in 1990, Land Rover had already spent more than four decades perfecting the formula.
First registered in September 2011, this Land Rover Defender 90 XS 2. 4 TDCi is a smart, range-topping example of the short-wheelbase Defender, finished in desirable Orkney Grey Metallic and specified in the versatile four-seat Station Wagon configuration. With just one former keeper and 84, 000 miles from new, it benefits from a full service history, most recently serviced in January 2026.
Under the bonnet is the dependable 2. 4-litre four-cylinder TDCi diesel engine, paired with a six-speed manual gearbox. Permanent four-wheel drive, high and low range gearing and a locking differential ensure it remains every bit as capable off-road, as its legendary reputation suggests.
As a top of the range XS model, it is well equipped from the factory, featuring power steering, electric front windows, heated front seats, heated front and rear screens, rear wash/ wipe and air conditioning. In Station Wagon form, it also offers two full-size, forward-facing fold-away rear seats with inertia-reel seat belts, along with privacy glass to the slide opening rear side windows and distinctive Alpine roof lights. Additionally, it has been retrofitted with a hands free telephone kit from Parrot.
With relatively low mileage and supported by a full service history and comprehensive maintenance records, this Defender presents in very good overall condition, both inside and out. It has also recently benefited from a comprehensive underbody preservation treatment as part of its pre-sale preparation.
Combining everyday useability with genuine all-terrain capability, this Defender 90 would make an ideal companion for daily use, weekend adventures, or practical workhorse duties.
