1988 Land Rover looks virtually identical all model years up, virtually NOBODY believes it’s a classic, BUT YOU GET THE NICE CHEAP INSURANCE. Driving this baby around town is a true rockstar experience: countless people asking questions, stopping to take photos, endless honks, thumbs up, and waves in traffic. Broncos, Blazers and Defenders are selling for $100,000!! Get that same reaction at less than half the price.
The car was imported from Italy, where it spent its entire life in the dry, Mediterranean climate. Virtually all of these Landys from the UK, Germany, and similar countries are completely rusted due to harsh elements, road salts, and snow. Plus it’s factory LHD, not a conversion of questionably quality.
This 1988 Land Rover Ninety (90) is a left-hand drive example which was imported from Italy in early 2019, and which is finished in red with factory turbo graphics and a removable hard top. The truck is powered by a turbocharged 2.5L diesel inline-four backed by a 5-speed manual transmission and a two-speed transfer case. Equipment includes three-abreast seating and a set of factory inclinometers!The truck is finished in red with factory Turbo graphics. The removable hard top is equipped with safari windows, and the truck retains factory bumpers, lighting, and a trailer hitch.
