Intro:

This is a European market Defender 90, left-hand drive, originally sold new in Italy and later refurbished, modified and imported into the U.S. by Oscar Toga. This Defender is powered by a strong 2.0 liter engine with a 5-speed manual transmission and 4-wheel drive, which is one of the most desirable combinations among enthusiasts and it features some desirable upgrades like an Imasaf exhaust system, a panoramic glass-roof hard top, leather upholstery, Recaro front seats, and plenty of insulation that should male it quieter and more comfortable than most 90’s. Plus this Defender is registered in the U.S., New Hampshire, so the hard work of importing a car from overseas has already been completed.

Land Rover’s celebrated Defender arrived in 1990 as an evolution of the 90/110 released in 1983. Shaped like the box it came in, it remained an unapologetically basic off-roader built for extremely demanding terrain. England’s favorite workhorse remained in production with minor but regular updates until regulations killed it off in 2016.

Power comes from a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine, which makes approximately 136 horsepower and 140 lb-ft of torque.
