[For Sale] Land Rover Defender 110 Wolf TUM Soft Top
If you are looking for one of the coolest looking, hard as nails and most practical Defenders, this has to be it.
Not loving the New Defender looks?
One of the very latest releases from the MOD - a 1998 vintage.This is now the ultimate heavy duty all purpose soft top 110 Defender you can get. With the sides rolled up or the roof fully off this is a head turning vehicle on the road. With all of the FFR parts removed internally you have maximum usable space and less weight to carry around. Unless you are going to have a ‘show’ vehicle or pretend to be in the Army, all that gear is just getting in the way.(I have kept everything removed)
Being ex-military doesn’t mean it has to be an absolute pig to drive. The Wolf came with a 300 Tdi and PAS as standard, which means it has the most reliable and robust engine ever placed in a Defender, plenty of power and is as comfortable to drive as they get. It also has front and rear disc brakes rather than rear drums of the era. . The REMUS upgrade means it has sound deadening acoustic matting fitted too along with the chassis waxing mentioned below. Having been fully serviced with genuine parts, it drives beautifully.
This Defender also wears its battle scars with pride and has a history. Having served with 2 Royal Anglians, it’s likely to be have been based with them in Iraq and /or Afghanistan. The drivers seat box still has the sand in it that it came home with! (this is the only bit I have not cleaned, as I felt it is part of the Defender’s story)
The chassis on these are XD i.e Extra Duty and very strong, the toughest chassis ever put on a Land Rover. They are waxed with Dinitrol by the Army and this one is immaculate, no rust or corrosion at all anywhere. You won’t believe it till you see it. The bodywork has been professionally resprayed in NATO Green.
Many of the must-have Wolf features are present such as the Pioneer tool fixing kit on the bonnet and wing, the radio boxes, the radio antenna candlestick mount, quick release light guards and flag carriers. It also wears the military issue Michelin XZL tyres on the Wolf Rims (the must have steel wheel). It also has the diagonally split sliding windows with working locks and I have re-felted the channels so no rattling glass or leaks. It is also fitted with convoy lights and the latest NATO 6 way switch
Everything works and now that I have spent over £1000 having it serviced with genuine Land Rover parts at a Land Rover specialist garage, MOT'd and registered, all you have to do is tax and insure it to drive it away.
You can buy one of these from an MOD specialist that will not have been serviced or re-sprayed and it will cost you at least £20K after VAT.
