Further info:

This apparently pristine seven-seater home market Defender is finished in a deep shade of Green that's teamed with Black interior trim. It has had one previous lady owner and been extensively serviced from new. Currently displaying a total of 18,000 miles, this lovely Landie is regarded by the vendor as having 'excellent', bodywork, paintwork, upholstery, 2.2-litre DuraTorq turbo-diesel engine, and 4x4 transmission. As a top of the range XS model, 'AU14 UCT' comes equipped with such niceties as ABS and traction control, heated windscreen, heated part-leather seats and air conditioning. Freshly serviced, the vehicle comes complete with a collection of invoices and a current MOT valid into April of next year.

The biggest development in the original Land Rover's history was the cessation of the Series line and its replacement with the Defender. This change was necessitated by the launch of the Land Rover Discovery, meaning the father of the range could no longer be called just a Land Rover - it too needed its own model name. The Discovery also brought a new engine to the party, the 200Tdi which, as fitted to the Defender, resulted in higher cruising speeds and more load-lugging torque. Gone now was the long-standing leaf spring suspension to be replaced by coils all round. Throughout the '90s, the model commenced the climb upmarket while remaining true to its roots. Limited editions were introduced, as was a completely new variant - the 110 Double Cab. Engine changes became a regular occurrence with the 200Tdi being followed by the 300Tdi, Td5 and then the Ford DuraTorq that appeared in 2.4-litre form in 2007 and then 2.2-litre guise in 2012. Although of smaller capacity, the engine's power and torque outputs remained the same at 122bhp and 265 lb ft respectively. Defender production exceeded two million before the model was dropped in 2016.
