2001 Land Rover Defender 110 High Cap
Built for the road less travelled.
Expedition profile
A closer look at the build.
Some vehicles are built for the daily commute. Others are built for the journey that begins where the road ends. This 2012 Land Rover Defender 110 High Capacity Pickup belongs firmly in the second category. Finished in its unmistakable original Caledonian Blue, this is a classic Defender transformed into a thoughtfully equipped expedition companion, combining rugged British 4x4 heritage with practical comforts for life outdoors. With only 15,964 verified miles from new, its 2.2 litre TDCi diesel engine, manual gearbox and four wheel drive capability provide the foundations for adventure. But what makes this particular Defender stand out is the equipment and preparation that turn it into much more than an ordinary pickup. A custom NJ Aluminium canopy provides secure storage through its heavy duty side lockers and internal slide out tray. Above it sits a colour matched Howling Moon Lunar hard top rooftop tent, creating a ready made sleeping space wherever the journey takes you. When it's time to settle in, the 270 degree Howling Moon awning and six panel enclosure create a sheltered outdoor living area. The expedition setup continues with a 200W solar panel, deep cycle leisure battery, intelligent charging system and 12V Polar Box fridge. Internal LED lighting and eight USB charging points make extended time away from conventional facilities more practical. Its off road credentials are equally impressive. A heavy duty front bumper, steering protection, rock sliders, differential guards and snorkel provide additional protection and preparation for demanding terrain. Recovery tracks, a high lift jack and a swing away spare wheel carrier complete the adventure focused setup. From remote campsites to long distance journeys, this Defender has been equipped with the essentials to make travelling independently more enjoyable. Described by Nene Overland as having been dry stored and meticulously cared for, this low mileage example offers a distinctive combination of classic Defender character, expedition equipment and practical camping accommodation. Not just a Defender to drive, but a Defender to take you somewhere worth remembering.Read full description +Show less −
