1996 Land Rover Defender 90 County

Location: Houston, TX

Why It’s Curated: We don’t usually see Land Rover Defender 90s in this red / wine color, and we like it. It will definitely stand out among the ‘sea’ of green, and white D90s in the wild (as if there is anywhere you’ll go where you won’t be the only one in a Defender 90). This example was imported from the UK in July ‘23 and, while it has a few needs (details below), its asking price is adjusted accordingly. The interior looks inviting, and it just had a servicing prior to making its way across the pond. The County has a few upgrades over the standard Defender, such as the full carpet set, interior trim panels and headliner, and extra sound deadening around the gearbox.
