What can we say about the Land Rover (latterly known as the Defender) that hasn’t already been said? Tough, capable, practical and effervescent – it’s the classless, timeless car that does everything you could want, and quite a bit more besides.
They’re as popular now as they’ve ever been, with older examples highly prized by collectors and more modern machines making for excellent, non-nonsense daily transport.
This particular Defender is the sought after 110 variant, replete with seven seats, a fine specification, low mileage and a good service record. Whether you’re looking for a vehicle that can take you on adventures in the wilderness or simply provide all the space and ability you could need, this would be the perfect solution.

The Interior
Half leather upholstery
Air conditioning
Front heated seats
Alpine CD/radio system with Aux, USB and Bluetooth
Seven seat layout, with rear fold-up seats
The upholstery is a smart half leather, with fabric centres to the seats and contrast stitching. It all presents in excellent condition, with no notable wear or damage apparent. That seven seat layout, with the two most rearward seats able to fold-up to increase load capacity, is very practical too.
Speaking of practicality, the car is fitted with thick, high quality OEM rubber matting all through, as well as a heavy duty load-liner at the rear. So whether you’re hauling muddy kids back from a sports day, muddy dogs back from a run or muddy bikes, canoes etc. – it should be nice and easy to get things clean again. All of the mats look to be in good order, with no damage we could discern. The headlining also presents very well, with no damage, sagging or staining in evidence.
Looking around the cabin, all of the driving controls and switchgear look to be ageing well, with minimal wear and tear on show. The vendor doesn’t report any faults of issues with any of the car’s features.
The Exterior
Dark metallic blue paintwork
Roof height snorkel
Checker plate to the sills and wing tops
Chunky side steps / rock sliders
Rear mounted spare wheel, complete with cover
Tow hitch and rear fold-up step
Rubber mud flaps all round
Privacy glass for the rear cabin
We think the metallic dark blue paint of this Defender suits the car perfectly, giving it a neat modern slant while remaining true to its heritage. It presents in fine fettle overall, with the only mark of note being a slight scratch to the near-side rear quarter.
Similarly, all of the bodywork appears to be straight and true, with no significant corrosion, dents or damage on display. There’s what appears to be a little surface corrosion to the rear cross member – a very common issue with these – but otherwise it all looks spick and span.
The car benefits from a number of optional external trim pieces, including checker plate, side steps, rear step, snorkel and rear spare cover. These all show well, with no issues we could identify.
Smart five-spoke, 16-inch alloy wheels freshen up the classic design nicely. They wear a handsome silver finish and all look to be in very good condition, with no kerbing or lacquer peel we could see. They are dressed in a matched set of high profile Continental Cross Contact AT tyres – perfect for providing a comfortable ride and also for traversing rural lanes and fields.
Underneath the car, everything looks straight, solid and free from damage. There’s the usual coating of surface corrosion to some of the drivetrain components and the exhaust, but nothing beyond what is commensurate with the car’s age and use.
The Mechanics
2,198cc four-cylinder turbo-diesel
Six-speed manual transmission
Locking differentials
All-wheel drive with low range box
Of course, where the Defender shines is always in the mechanical department. That 2.2-litre turbo-diesel provides a healthy slug of power and especially torque – more than enough for whatever you may need.
Add to that the all-road ability of the drivetrain, with its locking diffs and low range transfer box, and you have a vehicle that can get the whole family to pretty much anywhere you may want to be – and back again.
With low mileage and a comprehensive service record, this fine Defender should have many more years – maybe even decades – of faithful service left.
Summary
If you want a vehicle to dominate the landscape, but have the ability to scrub-up and happily do the school run or bimble about town, then this Defender is the ideal solution. With low miles, a fine service record and an excellent specification, we can't recommend it highly enough.

Come funzionano le offerte massime
Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.
Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.
Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.
Incrementi di offerta automatica
Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.

Superamento immediato dell'offerta
Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.
Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.
Offerte massime di pari ammontare
Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.
Pre-autorizzazione
Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.
Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?
Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.
Problema con l'offerta
Le offerte sono contrattualmente vincolanti. Per tutelare l'utente, sono previste alcune regole nel caso in cui si ritenga che sia stato digitato in modo errato. Si prega di controllare e modificare quanto inserito.
