Land Rover DEFENDER 90 300 tdi for £17,500
Description
Highlights,2.5 (300 tdi),just had full clean chassis and rust protection,Comes with fascinating military provenance - rare for ex-MOD Land Rovers,Used a parade vehicle in several notable events including the 2016 Lord Mayor's Show,Fitted with new Michelin XZL military-spec tyres,MOT valid until October 2025,The Appeal,We see a fair few ex-MOD Land Rovers, but it's exceedingly rare to find any with so much as an iota of known military history - such was the nature of their covert use, presumably. But that's where this rather smart 1998 Defender 90 Wolf differs. ,,It was used as a parade vehicle in the 2016 Lord Mayor's Show by the army. This can be verified by video and photographic evidence available online when one searches the military registration number (LL46AA).,,It has been subject to upgrade programs throughout its military life and has reportedly been dry stored. The towing system has been improved by the addition of an interchangeable civilian-type tow hitch. Otherwise, as the photographs show, the Wolf remains true to its military specifications, including rifle racks, map-reading lamp, convoy lighting switch, instrument light covers, stickers, and signage. It also has the correct military jacking system, pioneer tools, and towing strop.,,Approximately 5,000 km has been covered since the last major service, and the Land Rover benefits from a recent oil change. The MOT runs until October 2025.,,History and Paperwork,Civilian road registered since September 2021,Purchased in September 2021 from Classic Offroad LTD, a Norfolk-based Land Rover specialist,Acquired from the military by Classic Offroad at auction,Previously in military service since manufacture,Military registration number was LL46AA,Used as a parade vehicle in the 2016 Lord Mayor's Show by the British Army,Approximately 5,000 km since the last major service,MOT expires 8th October 2025,182,919 km indicated,,The Condition,Vehicle has been dry stored,The body and underside appear in very good condition for the Land Rover's age,Paintwork is standard NATO military and utilitarian in nature,The vendor notes some minor wear and tear commensurate with previous military use,The chassis appears sound, as does the bulkhead,Fitted with new Michelin military-type tyres,Minor corrosion will need ongoing attention, but there's nothing noteworthy to report,The soft top continues to present well,No notable panel damage visible,Interior retains authentic military features such as rifle racks and map-reading lamp,Correct military jacking system, pioneer tools, and towing strop are present,,The Mechanics,2.5-litre diesel l4,Five-speed manual transmission with low-range and four-wheel-drive,SWB Wolf with correct tyres, all-round disc brakes, and military-spec chassis and suspension upgrades,No mechanical upgrades outside of military work,Subject to military upgrade programs throughout its life,Recent oil change carried out by the owner and around 5,000km covered since the last major service,Improved towing system with interchangeable civilian tow hitch,handles and drives well compared to a standard military Defender, given that it is a SWB Wolf with the correct tyres, all-round disc brakes and military-spec chassis and suspension upgrades
