Land Rover Defender 90 1989

1989 Land Rover Defender Additional Info:

This is a 1989 Right Hand drive Defender 90, VIN:SALLDVAD7FA373783 It has the 2.5L Petrol engine and Five speed transmission. Included with the Land Rover is two NATO Petrol cans with mount and a new High-lift Jack. The galvanized rack was just installed and is easily removable. The truck was recently imported from England approximately 8 months ago and all the paper work and titling is done. I hold the title clear. All numbers on block,chassis, and body match. It also received a new paint job inside and out. All the electrical is functioning properly however I did buy a new upgraded fuse box that is splash proof and takes the more readily available american fuses. The windshield wipers front and back work fine as do the controls and fan for the heater and cooling air. There is wiring for a radio.
The seats are new and they are very comfortable. The rear seats have seat belts installed and they fold up nicely. The tires are Cooper Discoverer LT235/85R16 with ample tread left. The spare is essentially new. As you can see the tires also have wheel extenders. There is no grinding or gears that pop out when driving and it really is smooth in both shifting and in driving. The engine runs beautiful and has no noticeable leaks. It has a new distributor and plugs along with ALL the fluids changed except the brake fluid. ALL new filters, i.e., Air, fuel, oil. New brake/running lights with LED's installed and they work great. The rear door closes and opens fine with no rusting issues.
Now some of the negatives:As noted in the pictures both doors have minor rusting on the very bottom. This tends to be typical especially since the vehicle is 28 years old. However there is no bubbling in the paint on the doors. And they both close and lock fine. The driver side floor has some remnants of rusting right where the floor meets the angled piece under the pedals. It has been preserved and painted but not patched. I may put a stainless angle piece on it.
Other than that it does not overheat, smoke or stall. I have no problem driving it long distances. The max speed is about 65-70 and the speedometer is very accurate.
If you purchase the vehicle you can either come get it and drive it home/or arrange to have it picked-up. Also I live close to an airport and I can pick you up. Also I live close to many hotels and you can make a trip out of it. Lastly I can drive it to you within a reasonable distance. If you win it and you are waiting on the final issues of getting a loan and as per ebay you'll have 7 days after the auction for full payment in paypal provided you pay the immediate deposit of $1000 non refundable. I understand it can be a pain in the butt when you want something so I'll try to work with you within reason and Ebay policies. Any question please call me at 321-537-8374 Paul.
