Glastonbury | 1990 Land Rover Defender 110 V8

Jason’s take on this 1990 Land Rover Defender 110.

Here’s the thing about this truck — it’s got the factory V8. Not a swap, not a conversion, the engine it left Solihull with. And that matters. The 3.5-liter Rover V8 isn’t the most powerful thing on earth, but it makes all the right noises and it’s dead simple to work on. You’ve got the LT77 five-speed manual behind it, a three-door 110 body which is a genuinely cool configuration, and the whole thing is sitting under a canvas top in Grasmere Green. This is the Defender you buy when you want character, not a spreadsheet. It’s honest, it’s analog, and it’s the one your friends will actually want to ride in.
