Used 1986 Land Rover Defender 90 for sale in San Luis Obispo, CA

1986 Land Rover Defender 90 Soft Top with California Title and 52k original miles.

This Defender is ready to be driven daily in its original glory or if you must, restore it to your dream truck!

This Defender is turn key in great condition with no immediate needs at all and the 2.5 litre diesel motor was serviced locally. The removable soft top is 3 months old and the entire top unit and roll cage comes off in about 15 minutes giving you the perfect California cruiser. We also have the Driver and Passenger sliding windows that install and uninstall with just 2 bolts for added security (they are currently not installed). Its a manual 5 speed transmission, right hand driver which in my opinion makes it WAY MORE fun to drive and the 4WD makes this rig unstoppable. . Seats are newer and come with the 2 captains chairs and 2 safari facing bench seats. Paint looks great and the body (overall) is significantly free of rust which is very rare. Tires are in excellent condition and its small diesel motor allows this truck to run 70+ on the freeway with no issues while getting 20+ mpg. It is currently registered in California with clean title in hand.
This Land Rover is an original British Land Rover made in the UK. Originally registered in the UK in 1986. Owned by the British RAF for service to the Queen. Where it was used to pull the British Royal Family helicopter out of the RAF Hanger
It Came out of Service from the RAF in 2011 and underwent Total Refurbishment in 2015 by a Specialist Land Rover Restorer to an Exceptional Standard. This Restoration took Almost 12 Months at a Significant Cost. I highly recommend viewing to appreciate the example. Starts and Runs Perfectly.

A definite collectors Item. The Defender can be kept as part of an investment portfolio, or driven by yourself for trips to the beach or weekend vacation to the wilderness. Currently these trucks are only going up in value and the ability to get them carb certified and registered in California is now next to impossible ( currently costs 12k and takes 11+ months, if it passes ) so I am in no hurry to sell but our family has since outgrown it with a new baby.

For families interested, we have had 4 WAYB carseats ( 2 per bench seat ) and they do fit beautifully and secure safely to california requirements!

My initial asking price is $46,000 but will also be putting it on EBAY.
