Thread: 1988 Land Rover Defender 90

    Default 1988 Land Rover Defender 90

    This is a LHD Defender which spent its life in Souther Italy till it was shipped to Canada last year. This is not an ex-military truck and I don't use it off road (well...maybe just a few times to see what she could do).

    Chassis and bulkhead are excellent...maybe perfect. 2.5 turbo diesel is newer and in excellent shape. This truck is my daily driver. I love the truck but need something bigger for the kids...so looking for the right 110 to come along.

    Not sure how to post photos on this forum so here is a link to an online listing for my truck on Kijiji.com

    I would be happy to facilitate shipping.

    Most of the interest for this truck seems to be coming form the States...so here is what I have found out;

    -cost for an Import Broker to do all of the paperwork is $350
    -cost to ship the truck from Toronto to a secure auto storage facility in Michigan is $500
    -duty on the vehicle will be 3% of whatever is recorded on the sales receipt
    -I simply create a sales receipt and sign the back of the ownership document.

    Thats it. Pretty simple and surprisingly affordable.

    Just posting this picture because I have it. Saw this 90 recently at British Car Day and spoke briefly to the seller. Didn't drive it or crawl under it but it looks like a really nice truck.

    Hey Brett...thanks...thats her!
    I think I recall our chat. You have a 200tdi that you are thinking about dropping into your 88? Or maybe that was someone else.
    Anyhow...that was a fun show.
    Cheers

    Hi Craig

    Yes, that was me. And it was a good show given that a lot of folks were scared off by the rain early in the morning. Good luck with the sale. No way I can talk the wife into a third LR.
