Just got myself a defender 90! My first

bencorkill · Nov 24, 2014

Evening all,

Picked up a B reg 90 with a 300tdi conversion on sunday. Really happy with it and got it at a very very reasonable price. So excited to get going on it. Planning to use it this winter until the MOT runs out and then once the weather gets a little warmer a full rebuild.

Got loads of left overs off my disco like tf box axles wheels etc. sure ill be asking for lots of advice in next year. Will need a new bulkhead realistically maybe the doors too. Chassis looks solid so may strip and get galved.

So here are a few photos of it

That looks a nice straight example

Wheels are a bit naff, not uncommon

Any pics of the bulkhead? they are often repairable.
Chassis might run for years with just painting up and Dinitrol inside, if it is sound, mine has!

Will get some piccys of bulkhead and footwells tomorrow got a set of 33" 10.5 15 MT on black modulars to go on. Dont know if i should put them on until i get the stronger discovery axles on....

Think it just says red but will update you when it arrives, have you checked VIN plate for paint no?

Looks a solid 90.

I am self employed and have had vans for ten years, last month l sold my van and our Defender 90, and l bought a 110 which l am using for work.

I've done 2,000 miles in the 110 already. I found that it is much less stressful driving the Land Rover than my van.
