Description
This 1987 Land Rover Defender 90 custom convertible SUV is powered by a 3.5L V8 gasoline engine equipped with Arkonik's upgraded electronic fuel-injection system, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission and four-wheel drive. This left-hand-drive Defender underwent a multi-year, frame-off, hand-built restoration by Arkonik at its facility in Somerset, England. Finished in Java Black, the exterior features a KBX satin-black grille, KBX wing-top vents, satin-black checker-plate hood accents, LED daytime running lights integrated into the front bumper, LED side lamps, embossed hood and tailgate covers, and oversized side-view mirrors. Additional exterior equipment includes Fire & Ice side steps, a NAS-style rear step, swing-away spare-tire carrier, chassis protection with steering and front differential guards, and a premium portal package. It rides on Mach 5 wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich All-Terrain tires, including a matching spare. The upgraded suspension system incorporates modernized components for improved road handling. The custom six-passenger interior features gray Bentley Mulliner-style leather upholstery with diamond-quilted stitching, two front bucket seats and opposing rear bench seats. Additional interior appointments include leather-trimmed door panels, upgraded alloy door hardware, a leather-trimmed dashboard, stitched gearshift gaiter, oversized stitched center storage compartment, MOMO steering wheel, alloy gearshift knobs and custom diamond-pattern rubber flooring. Comfort and convenience features include LED interior lighting throughout the cabin, an Alpine digital audio system with Bluetooth connectivity and three-point front seatbelts. The vehicle includes an owner's manual. With less than 2,000 miles since restoration completion.
