Description from the seller
HIGHLIGHTS:
• High-specification SE trim with 2.4-liter TD4 diesel engine (122 hp)
• Just 133,000 km on the odometer; third owner
• Retrofitted ARB Air Locker system with integrated compressor
• Extensive mechanical refurbishment carried out at specialist workshops over the past two years
• Valid roadworthiness inspection (TÜV) through October 2027
HISTORY/OVERVIEW:
The Land Rover Defender is one of the world’s best-known off-road icons, with roots that go directly back to the original Land Rover Series launched in 1948. With the introduction of the 2.4-liter TD4 common-rail diesel engine, the Defender gained a modern powertrain while retaining its rugged off-road capability and long service life. This vehicle, in the short-wheelbase 90 configuration, was first registered in Russia on 23 June 2008 and is now with its third owner. In the 18 years since delivery, the off-roader has covered just 133,000 km and has been driven mainly on paved roads and occasionally on forest tracks; according to the information provided, it has not been used for demanding off-road driving. The high-specification SE trim includes, among other features, a leather steering wheel, leather seats, front seat heating, a parking heater, air conditioning, an alarm system, a particulate filter, and electrically heated windows.
BODY/PAINT:
The bodywork and paintwork are in well-kept overall condition for the vehicle’s age. The vehicle is finished in black with a contrasting white roof. There is no known or identified accident damage. Cavity wax and underbody protection have been applied to protect the body. Original Land Rover accessories, including a roof rack and headlight guards, are fitted.
INTERIOR:
The SE interior features original leather seats and a leather steering wheel, both in very well-kept condition. The dashboard has no cracks. All electrical components and instruments—including the power windows, heated front and rear windows, air conditioning, seat heating, parking heater, and ARB Air Locker compressor controls—are in proper working order. The two rear seats have been temporarily removed to increase cargo space; all mounting hardware and components needed to reinstall them are included with the vehicle.
MECHANICAL:
The original 2,402 cc TD4 diesel engine produces 122 hp and works properly in conjunction with the four-wheel drive, manual transmission, and braking system. All maintenance and repair work has been carried out regularly at specialist workshops. Extensive servicing over the past two years is documented, including replacement of the front tires, front brake discs and pads, brake lines, windscreen wiper motor and drive mechanism, electric door locks and hinges, as well as replacement of the mass airflow sensor, exhaust turbo valve, valve cover with breather valve, and heater valve, and an overhaul of the air-conditioning system. The roadworthiness inspection (TÜV) is valid through October 2027.
DOCUMENTS:
Various workshop invoices and receipts documenting maintenance and repairs carried out in recent years are available, along with proof of the roadworthiness inspection (TÜV), valid through 10/2027. Additional spare parts will be included at handover.
The vehicle is to be collected directly from the seller.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
