The Land Rover 110 Soft Top is a classic example of British off-road engineering, renowned for its rugged design, versatility, and exceptional capability in challenging terrain. Part of the original Land Rover Defender lineage, the 110 takes its name from its 110-inch wheelbase, providing a balance of stability, cargo space, and manoeuvrability. The soft top variant features a durable canvas roof supported by a lightweight frame, offering an open-air driving experience that enhances its utilitarian appeal. Powered by a range of diesel or petrol engines depending on market specification, the 1989 model was commonly equipped with the ultra-reliable 2.5 litre diesel engine. While not particularly fast, the vehicle excelled in low-speed torque delivery, making it ideal for agricultural work, military use, expedition travel, and remote-area transportation. Its permanent four-wheel-drive system, high ground clearance, and robust suspension enabled it to tackle mud, rocks, sand, and steep inclines with confidence. The exterior styling is unmistakably functional, with flat aluminium body panels, exposed hinges, and a simple boxy shape designed for practicality rather than luxury. Inside, the cabin reflects the vehicle's workhorse nature, featuring straightforward controls, durable materials, and minimal electronic systems. This simplicity contributes to its reputation for ease of maintenance and field repairs.
Originally registered on 13th January 1989, this Land Rover has been extensively restored, repainted in Land Rover Heritage Green and retrimmed in tan leather. The rear of this Defender has six inward facing seats, making this a nine-seater in total. Mechanically these vehicles are very robust and this example with its 2494cc diesel engine is no exception. The car started immediately when requested and we are advised this Land Rover drives with no known faults. Supplied with a V5 registration document, a current MoT test certificate valid until 1st December 2026 and a history folder. Today, the Land Rover 110 is highly sought-after by collectors and enthusiasts who appreciate its heritage and authenticity. It remains an icon of classic four-wheel-drive motoring, with its combination of durability, character, and legendary off-road performance. Consigned by Stewart Banks
