SUMMARY

This Land Rover Defender 90 ‘Works V8 Trophy’ is one of 25 examples of the factory converted off-roader that marked 70 years of the marque’s expedition legacy. Creating what is arguably the ultimate ex-factory ’adventure’ Defender, this is a very rare and sought-after 4x4. Having covered only 680 miles since its conversion it naturally presents very well throughout, and would make a fine addition to a collection or a formidable off-road companion.
