The Land Rover 90 Defender Wolf, introduced in the late 1990s, was a purpose-built military vehicle developed for the British Armed Forces. The ‘Wolf’ designation refers to the militarised versions of the Defender, specifically designed to withstand the harsh conditions of active service. The 1998 Land Rover 90 Defender Wolf, was particularly valued for its agility, durability, and versatility across a range of demanding environments. Unlike civilian Defenders, the Wolf models were heavily modified. Fitted with a reinforced chassis and upgraded suspension, it was designed to cope with heavy loads and rough terrain. Power came from the dependable 300Tdi turbo-diesel engine, chosen for its mechanical simplicity and reliability under combat conditions. The Wolf also received specialised features such as 24-volt electrical systems to support military communications equipment, run-flat tyres, and optional weapon mounting systems. The 90 Defender Wolf was most often deployed for reconnaissance, troop transport, and general utility roles. Its compact size allowed it to manoeuvre through narrow tracks and urban environments while still providing excellent off-road capability. Many vehicles were equipped with soft tops or hardtops depending on operational requirements, and they could be fitted with roll cages for added protection.

Subject to a bare-metal respray and thorough cosmetic refresh by Nene Overland in 2022, this Defender was then treated to a full engine overhaul in 2024 by Jason Hollick Land Rover Specialists. Resprayed in classic Land Rover colour, Keswick Green with a new soft top roof fitted and Keswick green Land Rover Defender 90 alloy wheels, it has not been used much since the refresh was completed but still starts instantly and idles well. Offered with a good history file with receipts from all of the work carried out and a Swansea V5C along with a spare set of the original Land Rover Wolf Military specification wheels.
