Few vehicles embody British motoring heritage quite like the Land Rover Defender.

Meet the owner

I’ve absolutely loved owning this Defender, it’s been dependable, full of character, and always turns heads wherever it goes.

Adele has owned this Land Rover Defender 110 XS since new, using it primarily for local drives and countryside trips.

It’s been carefully maintained throughout her ownership and stored off-road when not in use. With it no longer getting used regularly, Adele has decided to part with the Defender so someone else can enjoy it.

Adele will be happy to answer any questions about the car in the comments section below.

EXTERIOR VIDEO

Exterior

Rugged, confident, and instantly recognisable; there’s nothing quite like the unmistakable shape of a Land Rover Defender. This 110 XS example wears its heritage proudly.

Wheels and Tyres

The Defender sits on black alloy wheels, all look in good condition with no damage to note, the spare on the rear looked in great condition too.

The wheels are wrapped in rugged all-terrain GT Radial tyres with a spec of 235/85R16 date coded 2018 on the nearside pair - we couldn't notice the year on the offside pair, however all appearing in excellent condition with plenty of tread remaining. The rear spare is a Goodyear with the same spec date coded 2014.

Please take a look at the photos and videos for a detailed view of the exterior of the Land Rover and a closer look at the wheels and tyres to make your assessment of their condition.

Bodywork

Straight and solid throughout, the Defender’s panels show uniform alignment and the expected robustness that defines these vehicles.

We've highlighted in more detail our observations through our high-resolution images and videos, so please take time to look through all the media files for a detailed view of what’s on offer, and for you to assess the condition of the car for yourselves.

Paint

Finished in 'Santorini Black', the paintwork looks deep and glossy with only light, age-appropriate marks of note to point out, with the odd scratch here and there, e.g. a few scratches at the bottom of the sills on the driver's side.

The images are taken from a few different angles to show off the car as you would see it if you were standing there for yourselves. So please take the time to fully assess these high-resolution images and videos of the car, for you to make up your own minds about the condition of the paint.

'ON THE ROAD' VIDEO

Mechanics

The 110 XS benefits from Land Rover’s later 2.2-litre diesel engine and six-speed manual gearbox, offering a good balance of torque, refinement, and usability both on and off-road.

Engine and Gearbox

Powered by the 2.2-litre diesel engine, this Defender starts cleanly and idles smoothly with no reported issues. The engine bay presents well, with no obvious signs of leaks or neglect.

The six-speed manual gearbox operates as it should, with smooth engagement through the gears and no signs of crunching or stiffness.

Suspension and Brakes

The suspension provides the classic Defender ride, firm but composed, well suited to both tarmac and trails. No knocking or unwanted noises were reported.

Brakes appear to be in good order, providing reassuring stopping power with no vibration or pull during braking.

The Drive

According to Adele, the Defender performs exactly as expected, pulling strongly through the gears with that familiar diesel torque delivery. Steering feels direct for a vehicle of this type, and the drivetrain engages four-wheel-drive modes without issue.

Overall, it delivers a confident and dependable driving experience.

Electrics and Other

All electrical systems, including lights, indicators, heating, and infotainment, are reported to function correctly, we didn't test everything but Adele told us everything was working, to her knowledge.

No warning lights or electrical faults were present at the time of visit, and everything appeared to be in good working order.

History and Paperwork

Supplied new in 2015, this Defender 110 XS comes from later in the model’s production, combining classic Land Rover toughness with the refinements that make these final-generation examples so desirable.

At the time of our visit, no physical paperwork or service history was presented; however, Adele reports the vehicle has been maintained as part of regular use and kept in good order throughout her ownership. The car presents well in line with its age, with recent upkeep ensuring it remains ready for use. As one of the last of its kind before the Defender’s production ended, it represents a strong opportunity to own a usable, modern classic from an iconic British marque. The Defender has been Adele's since new, it was registered in another family member's name though and transferred to Adele's name in January 2022.
