DOUG’S TAKE
———–
– We love restored Land Rover models here on Cars & Bids, as these tout old-school styling and and analog driving feel – but with more modern amenities. This example is a right-hand drive, long-wheelbase 110 model that boasts a Cummins turbodiesel engine, 4-wheel drive, and a full custom interior – along with plenty of other upgrades to improve the look, comfort, and off-road performance. This Land Rover 110 is also finished in a handsome color combination – and it comes with a U.S. title, meaning all the hard work of importing it has already been handled.
HIGHLIGHTS
———-
– THIS… is a 1988 Land Rover 110, finished in green with a tan interior.
– This Land Rover is a U.K.-spec SUV equipped with a 5-speed manual transmission and is titled and located in Michigan. The replaced odometer reads in imperial units and indicates approximately 14,800 miles.
– The attached Carfax vehicle history report begins in 2017 and indicates no accidents for the given time period.
– This Land Rover has reportedly been restored, and a partial list of notable currently installed equipment reported by the seller includes a Cummins 2.8-liter turbodiesel inline-4 engine, dual radiators, a stainless exhaust with a Summit Racing muffler, a heavy-duty clutch, 18-inch Project Kahn wheels, custom green paint, a custom interior, and a Front Runner roof rack.
– Land Rover introduced the four-door 110 and the two-door 90 in 1983 and 1984, respectively, to replace the long-running Series III. While both models looked a lot like their predecessors, they offered users a more up-to-date interior, a permanent four-wheel drive system, and a coil spring suspension system. The 110 and the 90 morphed into the original Defender in 1990, though the numerical designations remained to differentiate two- and four-door models, and production carried on with minor updates until 2016.
– Power comes from a Cummins 2.8-liter turbodiesel inline-4, rated at approximately 161 horsepower and 207 lb-ft of torque. Output is directed to all four wheels through a 5-speed manual transmission.
