The vast majority of car fans who buy traditional hard-core off-road vehicles basically have a little bit of military car dreams, such as Land Rover Defender fans. After Land Rover officially discontinued the Land Rover Defender, the British Army had to choose the LC70 series as a fast assault vehicle. However, in the military career of the Land Rover Defender 110, it also had a good performance. Through different channels, some car fans also got the military version of Land Rover Defender 110 Land Rover Defender 110 Tithonus.
This Land Rover Defender 110 Tithonus was officially put into service in 1986. It was sold for US$15,100 on eBay, or about 104,000 yuan, which is indeed not expensive. The mileage is 96694 kilometers. It is matched with a 2.5L diesel engine and a five-speed manual transmission, and the cab adopts the British right-hand drive layout. Thanks to good maintenance, the vehicle’s clutch, brakes, and four-wheel drive system are all working.
In terms of appearance, Land Rover Defender 110 Tithonus is painted in matte green army, and the seats are wrapped in black fabric. Like the Land Rover Defender 110 Tithonus back then, it also adopted a convertible layout and placed vertical seats in the rear. The spare wheel is also placed above the hood as always. In terms of details, the original owner also modified it to some extent, including heavy-duty winches and auxiliary light sources. After removing the hard top, a dedicated roll cage was installed, and in the convertible state, the roof adopts a canvas roof.
Steel plates are also used to wrap the rear of the vehicle and above the fenders. In terms of chassis, the original owner also added thicker anti-roll bars, and the springs and shock absorbers were also upgraded for racing. In general, the overall layout still maintains a relatively original layout. It should be very good for modifying racing cars, and it is also very affordable in terms of price.
