A very smart example of the legendary Defender 90 in the popular XS specification and fitted with a galvanised chassis. .
An icon for over 68 years, production of Land Rover's Defender ceased in January 2016 with more than 2,000,000 models built since the original Series I arrived in 1948. Never has there been a car that has so captured the imagination of the world. Land Rovers have saved lives, won wars, delivered aid and hope, conveyed Kings and Queens and numerous Popes, ferried injured animals from the lowliest sheep to the proudest lion to safety. The Land Rover has conquered ravines, deserts and snow, broken records and along the way won the hearts of millions.
For 2007, the Defender benefitted from a serious revamp with a new common-rail diesel EU4-compliant engine from the Ford Transit, a new 6-speed gearbox, new fascia, new seats and a heating and ventilation system that actually works. The XS specification from 2007 included electric windows to the front, half-leather seating and a fancier dashboard than standard. Land Rover had acknowledged that perhaps not all Defenders were destined for muddy tracks, rivers and moorland, and those drivers that did have a Labrador as a front-seat companion might find it convenient to open the passenger window at the touch of a button.
The Defender 90 in XS specification offered perhaps the best affordable combination of drivability, passenger comfort for four and rear load capacity when required due to the foldable seats. The Defender 90 is also far easier to park than its longer wheelbase sibling, the 110, and the Defender is as popular in town as it is in the country. Supplied new to the first of just three former keepers on 28th September 2007, this Defender 90 XS was used on a large private estate for the first ten years or so before being dry stored until the time came for the next custodian in June 2021.
Intended for country pursuits, the next owner swiftly concluded that the Land Rover was 'too good' for his intentions and presented the car to auction but not before a fresh fluid service was completed and five brand new tyres on SVX anniversary dual-tone alloy wheels were fitted. Greater illumination is provided via the LED headlight kit, which is a welcome bonus compared to the original headlights. Whilst there are fancier, and substantially more expensive, examples on the market, this unassuming Defender 90 XS offers a multitude of uses on either turf or tarmac at a sensible estimate.
Freshly serviced and presented with an MOT, which was issued without advisories, the overall condition is superb, due no doubt to the galvanised chassis and overall care and attention that it has received over the years.
