Our 90 TD5 CSW was valued at around £3,000 more than our pretty much identical 110 TD5 CSW
Despite the 90 having 125,000 and the 110 under 100,000 miles.
The 90 does seem to have higher value, or at least attempted sale prices online.
I think it’s because it is the Defender non-owners think they want, where many would be better with a 110.
I can’t decide which l prefer. I need my 110 for my business and it’s better to drive (less bouncy) but l think the 90 looks better, which will be the decider for many.

A lot of people think that a 90 is just a big version of their mummyvan, and still have no idea how to drive one, whereas they consider the 110 to be a huge beast almost on a par with a 3-Tonner, and are totally intimidated by them!

Clearly the 110 is more practical in every respect except hardcore offroading, which not all or even most owners will be exposed to.. The 90 is also better to park, so in big cities it is not a non-issue

Ideally yer need a vehicle that's half way between a 90 and 110 int wheelbase terms...





















Like a Freelander.

Same as the series world everyone wants an 88, very few want a 109.

90’s are more manoeuvrable and look a bit more agile than a 110. A 110 is far more practical. I’d say both have different advantages off-road. I’d expect 90’s to fetch more as for enthusiasts they are likely a second vehicle and preferred for the tighter turning circle, better break over angle, different image and easier to fit on the drive.
