Up for buy it now price obo is a 1997 Land Rover NAS Defender 90. If you are looking for a last year NAS Defender that can be used for what it was made for then this is your truck. This is not a garage queen that has been kept in side and never used. The truck has 126k miles and mechanically runs good, idles nice and no smoke on startup, has nice power and shifts through all the gears nicely. Since this is the last year 1997 D90 it is an automatic with factory air conditioner. As you can see in the pictures there has been several modifications done to the D90 over the years. Below is a list of all those items. The body and frame are in overall nice shape for a 20 year old defender that has been used, it does have some body rust in spots (mainly on the rear lower door/gate area). This would be a pretty easy fix as it is rust bubbling in a few spots currently. The frame has no rust and the rest of the underside has just light rust. I have taken several underside pictures that show potential buyers. Heat blows hot and AC blows cold with good pressure. I just had a new battery put in about a month ago as well. I have listed the items below that need to be done on the truck to take it to the next level, I just drove as is and decided not to mess with them. If you don't know these trucks then do your research or don't waste either of our times on bidding. This is not a Lexus everyday turn key vehicle, it is a 20 year old truck that will always need maintenance and little things to keep it running. Also if you are looking for a perfect garage queen please keep looking, this one is defiantly not that, it's just a solid D90 that has been used for light off road etc, has been kept inside and outside over it's life. If you are a collector then this is not the truck for you, if you want to use the truck and not worry then this is probably the cheapest 1997 D90 wagon on the internet right now. Modifications Powder Coated alloy OEM wheels 285/75R16 Fierce Attitude M/T tires with excellent tread life Kenwood Stereo with aux jack and Bluetooth 2 6x9 JBL speakers in rear, 2 6.5 speakers mounted in front seats Plated bonnet and wing tops Equipe rock sliders Draken front winch bumper Draken roof rack Draken 4 link suspension Smittybuilt XRC 8000lb winch 6 total Hella lights, 4 mounted on roof rack, 2 on front bumper Tom Woods double carden front drive shaft Tom Woods double carden rear drive shaft Con's of D90 -Missing rear tail gate inside cover -headliner was removed at some point so looks bad, but didn't bother me so never messed with replacing. -was rhino lined at some point on the interior but doesn't look great in the front driver and passenger areas, the rear cargo area lined looks pretty good. -passenger role up window handle pops on and off -I would change back the suspension to OEM or do a slee off road OME conversion, the suspension on it now is old and pretty worn out. This will be really the only bigger expensive for the truck that I would do right away. -Brakes need to be gone through, it stops fine but there is a scraping noise front the rotors I assume, just didn't get around to addressing. - Odometer is digital and goes in and out, this was a common problem with NAS D90's - E-brake light on dash goes off and on, no other lights on dash on. - bubble rust areas on rear gate, right rear of D90. - There is rust through areas on rear roof area, have pictures that will be posted, also rust on the bonnet underside. - I have 2 new in the box additional rear jump seats that will go with the truck but just aren't installed The truck has a clean clear Kentucky title and will be sold as is with no warranty to the highest bidder, I have a very reasonable buy it now price but will consider offers. Again this is a solid overall truck but if you are looking for perfect low miles garage kept D90 this IS NOT the D90 for you, go buy another one for double the money. Please ask as many questions before you decide to buy. If you know these trucks the NAS D90 are getting harder and harder to find especially the last year 1997, they will continue to climb in price. I will work with any buyer if they will need to have vehicle shipped. Can also email additional pics. Have a video as well I can send. Thanks!
