“Some classics need no introduction … And the Land Rover Defender 90 2.8i is one of them.
Built in limited numbers between 1997 and 2000, only ≈ 1,395 BMW-powered 2.8i Defenders were ever produced, of which just around 656 were the short-wheelbase 90s. This is one of those rare few.
Powered by the BMW 2.8-litre straight-six engine, it delivers refined, effortless performance while retaining the unmistakable Defender spirit, raw, capable, and timeless.
This particular example is in perfect condition inside and out, with beautiful original paintwork and a spotless original interior now protected by brand-new seat covers.
It has brand-new tyres, a full service history, and comes complete with all books and manuals, a testament to years of careful ownership.
Details:
• 190 000 km on the clock
• Full service history with books and manuals
• BMW 2.8 straight-six engine with matching numbers
• Original paint and interior
• Brand-new tyres and seat covers

Finding a 2.8i Defender 90 in this condition is nearly impossible today.
With its rarity, perfect presentation, and legendary BMW engine, this is more than a 4×4; it’s a collectable, and a guaranteed future classic.
If you’ve been waiting for the right one, then this is it.
