What’s special about this listing
- 1998 represents one of the final years for the legendary 300TDI turbo diesel engine in the US Defender 90 market, making this a last-of-its-kind example
- 5-speed manual transmission with R380 gearbox - increasingly rare as many Defenders were fitted with automatics or converted over the years
- Florida-sourced vehicle from Gateway Classic Cars Orlando - virtually guaranteed rust-free body, a critical advantage for Land Rover collectors
- Red exterior with gray cloth interior - a less common color combination compared to the typical British Racing Green or white Defenders
- 131,164 actual miles on the odometer - reasonable usage for a 28-year-old vehicle with no indication of mileage tampering
- Soft-top convertible configuration - the most authentic and sought-after Defender 90 body style for purists
- No engine swap confirmed - original 300TDI powertrain intact, preserving matching-numbers value
- Comparable vehicles have sold in the $32,309-$81,949 range. See the Land Rover Defender Classic 90 Soft Top market →
