Interesting V8 version that has benefited from a superb restoration, the perfect 4X4 for this summer!
The Land Rover Defender 110 is one of the most iconic models in the Land Rover range. Introduced in 1983 under the name One Ten, in reference to its 110-inch wheelbase, it was designed to offer more space and versatility than the 90 version. Robust and functional, it quickly established itself as a benchmark vehicle for professionals, government agencies, the armed forces and adventurers the world over.
Based on a particularly strong ladder chassis and equipped with permanent all-wheel drive, the Defender 110 stands out for its remarkable cross-country capabilities. Available in a wide range of configurations - utility, station wagon, pick-up or tarpaulin version - it can accommodate up to nine passengers, depending on the layout. Its simple, durable design, combined with a reliable powertrain, has enabled it to adapt to the most demanding conditions, from African tracks to the polar regions.
Over the course of its career, the Defender has been fitted with a variety of petrol and diesel engines, while retaining its authentic character and timeless style. Produced until 2016 in its original form, it has now become a veritable icon of the off-road car. Appreciated for its versatility, robustness and historic heritage, it remains one of the most sought-after models by Land Rover enthusiasts and collectors around the world.
Our example is a former German army vehicle, originally fitted with the 3.5-litre V8 engine. With just 79,000 km on the clock, it has benefited from a superb restoration completed this year. It was completely dismantled and fitted with a new galvanised chassis. Mechanically, the engine has been overhauled and optimised with an Edelbrock intake. The sound of its V8 has been enhanced by a stainless steel exhaust system. The 5-speed manual gearbox is new.
Cosmetically, the bodywork has been given a magnificent shade of Marine blue. Its modernised headlamps, metallic grey radiator grille and black wheels and tonneau cover give it a superb look. Inside, the houndstooth upholstery is brand new. It blends perfectly with the body colour. There's also a three-spoke chrome steering wheel and a Marshall Bluetooth speaker. Every detail has been carefully considered. It also comes with a 3-seater collector's licence. Whether you're heading to the seaside or the mountains, this magnificent Defender will be the perfect companion for your outings this summer. An opportunity not to be missed!
