Vehicle description
About this vehicle This 1997 Land Rover Defender 90 is an original. The owner has had it for 5+ years. The vehicle runs great and is mainly used for weekend drives. Vehicle Details When it comes to rare vehicles, the Defender certainly is one for those looking to buy a Defender here in the United States. While you may find a refurbished Defender that has been imported, it’s far more difficult to find the edition of the Defender that was made for the U.S., the North American Spec (NAS). The Defender is a utility vehicle that was pretty widely sold in most other areas of the world, except North America and a few other locatioNS. The British vehicle’s production run started in the 1980s by Land Rover as competition with other utility vehicles, like Jeep, and was modified until it took its final form in the late 80s and early 90s. While Land Rover had started selling its Range Rover vehicles in the U.S., this would be the first utility vehicle the company brought to North America. The regulations and requirements for this style of vehicle were vastly different here in North America, and that meant Land Rover had to produce a batch of Defenders that were specifically built to meet these regulations, hence the North American Spec. So starting in 1993, Land Rover produced a limited quantity of these vehicles to be shipped to both the U.S. and Canada with features that included the 3.9L Rover V8 engine, full external and internal roll cages, brush guards, safety lights, and fully functioning air conditioning. This is one of those vehicles and 1997 was the last year they imported to the US market. I have owned this vehicle since 2003. It is time to pass the enjoyment of her to someone else.
