Description

2012 Land Rover Defender 90 Hard Top 2.2 TDCi Rare opportunity to purchase a genuine, unmodified 2012 Land Rover Defender 90 Hard Top with the desirable 2.2 TDCi engine and 6-speed manual gearbox. Just passed its MOT (15th July) without a single advisory. I purchased this Defender in October 2021 after specifically looking for one that hadn't been worked hard, remapped or used off-road. It has been excellent throughout my ownership and, if anything, drives even better today than when I bought it. Everything feels tight, it starts first time every time and has never let me down. The vehicle has covered 81,000 miles and benefits from a full service history. It has always been maintained regardless of cost, is completely dry underneath with no oil leaks and does not smoke on start-up or under load. The chassis has previously been treated underneath for protection and remains in very good condition. Apart from the alloy wheels, the vehicle remains in its original factory specification, has never been remapped and has never been used off-road. It is supplied with 12 months MOT. I would encourage prospective buyers to check the online MOT history, which reflects how well the vehicle has been maintained, with none of the corrosion or neglect-related advisories often associated with Defenders of this age. Specification: 2.2 TDCi diesel engine 6-speed manual gearbox Full service history Air conditioning Electric windows Heated front seats Heated front windscreen Half leather seats (always protected with seat covers) Twin rear bench seats (6 seats in total) Rear work lights Hidden immobiliser Clutch Lock security device Two sets of keys Recent maintenance: Five new Yokohama tyres New brake pads all round Replacement wiper boxes and wiper arms Main drive pinion replaced at approximately 65,000 miles The later 2.2 TDCi Defenders are highly sought after, combining classic Defender character with the improved refinement of the later drivetrain and 6-speed gearbox. This is an honest, original Defender that has wanted for nothing during my ownership. It would make an excellent daily driver, weekend vehicle or long-term investment. I am only selling because I now have a company vehicle and, unfortunately, this Defender isn't getting the use it deserves. I'm in no rush to sell and would much rather it go to someone who appreciates a well-cared-for example. Viewings and inspections are very welcome. Please get in touch with any questions or to arrange a viewing.
