Rare Diesel Engine with Complete Restoration and Significant Upgrades!

1984 Land Rover Defender 110 Rare California Titled 300Tdi 4x4 Collector Description

Special Attributes that make this vehicle stand out

Hello! Hope that this finds you most well, in health, and in joy!

This vehicle is a direct import from the island nation of Sri Lanka. Traditionally referred to as “the pearl of the Indian Ocean,” the nation is also a former British colony—hence, there is a prestige that has been associated with this vehicle, particularly among the nobility there.

This vehicle has a very rare 2.5L, 4-cylinder, 300 TDi engine conversion, meaning it has been converted from the original gasoline engine to a solid, highly desired, easily home repairable, dependable engine, especially for any off roading adventures that may spring to mind.

This vehicle has undergone a full-body paint job and a complete interior makeover, all the while retaining original design specifications for the 1984 Defender. Basically, it looks like an original interior, with all the good, comfy perks of a modern, custom, premium interior. This also includes a fully rewired auto-lock system for the doors, remote-accessible via the key fob. All mechanisms inherent to the operation of the auto-lock were custom built!

It has also had a rear-axle upgrade from an original Salisbury axle with Drum Brakes to a Td5/Puma Rear Axle with Disc Brakes, indicating a solution to the vehement distaste one may develop from one’s rear differential potentially “snapping off” while one is navigating a semi-legal, river-bed, off roading trail. What, you don’t have one of those lying around in your backyard?
