Overview
Alpine White over black, this 1997 Defender 90 presents in one of the most classically correct and visually striking combinations available on the model. At just over 32,000 miles, it represents a genuinely low-use example of the last generation of Defenders sold new in the United States, a market the model exited after 1997. The short-wheelbase 90 body amplifies the Defender's already commanding proportions, and Alpine White only sharpens that presence.
Highlights
- Short-wheelbase 90 body
- Final US-market year
- 4-speed automatic
- Solid axle four-wheel drive
About the model
Land Rover ceased Defender sales in the United States after the 1997 model year, making these final examples the last of a lineage with roots in the original 1948 Series I. Low-mileage, clean US-market Defender 90s are among the most sought collector trucks of their era, with values that have risen steadily and consistently.
