1989 Land Rover 90 V8 Soft Top

Getting our hands on a immaculately restored classic Land Rover Defender is a bit of an objective of ours here at The Coolector and we might just have found the ideal candidate for the role in the shape of this supremely stealthy and luxuriously appointed 1989 Land Rover 90 V8 Soft Top which is available to purchase from the guys at Collecting Cars. It is a rare factory-built example – not to be confused with aftermarket conversions – offered with a few sensible modifications and relatively low mileage from new so you’ll be getting your hands on one mighty impressive steed for all your backcountry adventures.

The 1989 Land Rover 90 V8 Soft top from Collecting Cars is powered by a no-nonsense 3.5-litre V8 engine with an Edelbrock carburettor, driving all four wheels through a five-speed manual gearbox and a locking differential. This is an original left-hand drive Soft Top, something that means this Land Rover 90 represents a particularly collectible model among marque connoisseurs of Defenders and you’ll be able to turn heads aplenty out on the open road if you’re the one lucky enough to get your hands on this monstrous machine.

CHOCK FULL OF FEATURES

As you might expect from such an impressive looking steed, this 1989 Land Rover 90 V8 Soft Top has an abundant array of top quality features to help set it apart from the crowd and make it a worthy addition to any Land Rover aficionado’s line up of vehicles. It comes finished in the wonderfully stealthy colour way of Midnight Blue, with a black soft top roof and re-trimmed black leather upholstery in the cabin that adds a real sense of classiness to proceedings. It rides on a set of black 16-inch wheels with gold centre caps and purposeful off-road tyres and the cabin comes equipped with a Mountney Classic steering wheel and a smart USB output.

Great to look at and a pleasure to drive, this 1989 Land Rover 90 V8 Soft Top from Collecting Cars has a Certificate of Conformity included, along with various registration sheets and a Car-Pass document. The official Certificate of Conformity proves that this car was a factory-built Soft Top rather than a later conversion, and is an imported item of paperwork to enhance its value among those passionate about collecting Land Rover Defenders. The resprayed Midnight Blue paintwork is in excellent overall condition and the black Exmoor Trim leather upholstery is in superb order, free of any notable wear. The interior is in wonderful condition given the car’s age.

This impeccable Land Rover 90 3.5 V8 from Collecting Cars is a very rare factory-built left-hand drive Soft Top, with an uprated Edelbrock carburettor and a few subtle interior modifications that finish off proceedings perfectly. Accompanied by its Certificate of Conformity from Land Rover, it would make a discerning addition to any collection of desirable off-road vehicles, and an imposing companion for on and off-road expeditions. Given our love of Land Rovers, we were always going to fall for this one here at The Coolector.
