Description for Land Rover Defender 1980
For sale is a rare 1988 (Ebay does not recognize the VIN of this vehicle - SALLDHAC8BA315264) Land Rover 110 hard top, direct from UK Ministry of Defense, in very good condition. I personally selected this vehicle overseas from a group of 60 vehicles. My criteria included low miles, good chassis (frame), rot-free bulkhead (firewall), and good body.
This vehicle was part of the UK MOD's project Tithonus. Each Tithonus Land Rover was individually selected and fully refurbished by the MOD in 2007-2008 as part of the British Army LEP (life extension program).
The project was to extend the overall service life of the Land-Rovers by 10 years, from 20 to 30 years.
Features:
2500cc NAD engine
LT77 5 speed gearbox
Transfer box with Hi Lo ratio & center diff lock
Excellent chassis & bulkhead
12 Volt Electrics
Hard type steering wheel
Exmoor high back bucket seats and two rear bench seats (for four people) with new seat belts for all six seats.
Front disc brakes
New tires and “Wolf” wheels
Fully integrated Wolf roll cage including front external and rear internal hoop system
Full size spare wheel
NATO hitch
There are no known faults with this vehicle and it is in very good condition throughout. It runs & drives very well in all gears.
