Strong points
- Popular and robust 2.5L TD5 "10P" diesel engine
- Attractive 90 white with six-seat configuration
- Recently refurbished with Exmoor Trim fabric
- Turbo replaced and freshly serviced
- MOT valid until April 2026
The charm
Enthusiasts rank the 10P engine in this 90 as the most sought-after because it avoids the complex EGR systems and additional emissions equipment present on the later 15P/16P engines. It is also robust and easy to tune. Combined with its condition and low mileage, this gives good reason to appreciate this practical and well-maintained six-seater Defender.
It is well preserved in white with a cabin re-trimmed by Exmoor Trim. The service history shows a recent overhaul and a new turbo, and it comes to the market with a useful MOT valid until April 2026.
The seller states:
"The vehicle is very pleasant to drive. The gears shift very smoothly. The engine runs perfectly. The turbo has just been replaced.
"Low mileage Land Rover Defender. The TD5s with the 10P engine are the most sought after as they are reputed to be the most robust".
