The seller offers for sale a Land Rover Defender 300Tdi 110 station wagon from 1994, powered by a 2.5-litre four-cylinder diesel engine and manual transmission. Offered on behalf of a friend due to health reasons, this classic 110 is described as clean and ready for new adventures, with South African papers and licence disc in order. It features a factory galvanised chassis and firewall and has received substantial recent work, including LED main headlights, upgraded indicator, parking, brake and interior lights, replacement windscreen and side glass with heated rear window, fresh door rubbers and renewed door latches and panels. The seller notes a new speedometer, new rear wiper motor, a front-mounted winch, renewed suspension bushes front and rear, a new front propshaft, new diesel tank with sender and a long list of brake components, tyres and steering parts, together with an overhauled electrical system and fresh master cylinder and brake booster. Inside, the seats and additional cushions have been retrimmed and fitted with durable covers, with matching door panels, giving the cabin a good and purposeful feel. Fluids for axles, transfer case and gearbox have been replaced, the radiator and intercooler have been cleaned, and the 300Tdi engine has been serviced. Further equipment includes a 68-litre water tank, a 20-litre cooler box in the rear, front and rear mud flaps and a heavy-duty battery, underlining the car’s focus on travel and off-road use. The car is based in George in the Western Cape region of South Africa.
The Land Rover Defender 110 with 300Tdi engine has become a sought-after choice for enthusiasts who enjoy rugged travel and classic design. Introduced in the early nineties, the 300Tdi diesel combined dependable mechanicals with straightforward maintenance and strong torque at low revs, which suits towing and off-road use. The 110 wheelbase provides generous interior space for passengers, luggage and equipment, making these vehicles popular for overlanding builds and family adventures. The body-on-frame construction and permanent four-wheel drive create a driving experience that feels robust and purposeful, with good visibility and a commanding seating position. While comfort levels differ from modern SUVs, many owners value the honest character, mechanical feel and strong community support that surrounds the Defender. Parts supply and specialist knowledge are widely available worldwide, allowing owners to prepare these vehicles for long-distance journeys. For bidders seeking a characterful off-roader with strong heritage and lifestyle appeal, a 300Tdi 110 remains an attractive candidate.
