1994 Land Rover Defender 90

1994 Land Rover Defender 90 For SaleThis 1994 Land Rover Defender 90 underwent a complete nut and bolt restoration by Commonwealth Classics in Virginia just seven months ago and has traveled only 226 miles since completion. The entire process is documented in a binder of photographs that track the vehicle's transformation from its original condition in Jaen, Spain, to the fully reimagined truck offered here.It was rebuilt around a crate TDI 300 2.5L turbocharged diesel four-cylinder, paired with a ZFHP22 four-speed automatic transmission - an OEM-spec combination used in European-market Discoverys. Supporting upgrades include a heavy-duty LT230 two-speed transfer case, an uprated aluminum intercooler, Variable Geometry Turbo, powder-coated rocker cover, custom front and rear driveshafts, and an aluminum transmission oil cooler. Commonwealth fabricated a substructure for the automatic shifter and adapted the linkage to suit the drivetrain.Finished in Land Rover's classic Keswick Green, the truck wears a khaki Exmoor Stayfast soft top. The paintwork extends across the body, fenders, and headlight bezels, complemented by a silver metal heritage front grille. The front bumper and rear capping are hot-dip galvanized for durability. It rides on 16-inch heavy-duty Wolf steel wheels, body-matched in Keswick Green and wrapped in 245/75R16 BF Goodrich All-Terrain KO2 tires, with a full-size spare carried on a swing-away rear mount.Inside, the Defender seats six with belts, and the cabin features a replica of the 1997 NAS Defender 90 center console. Additional details include a Moto-Lita steering wheel, power windows, and a GPS speedometer with matching tachometer. Entertainment is handled by a Blaupunkt Frankfurt stereo paired with an underseat amplifier, Morel component speakers up front, dash-mounted tweeters, under-dash woofers, and rear forward-facing speakers.This Defender represents a faithful and carefully considered restoration, blending the rugged authenticity of a classic with thoughtfully integrated drivability upgrades and modern touches.See the "videos" tab above this description box for a cold start and walk around.
