I didn't realise their was a pre defender 90 or 110. Am I right in saying that their is a LR defender 110 as well as a LR 110?

I've always refered to mine as a defender 110 but it's probably just a 110. I can't see the word "defender" on the log book.

Mine is a 22.11.85 n/a diesel.

Just call it a 110. It's easier.

The name defender came in with the 200tdi engine and the introduction of The discovery. So my ‘89 110 is also not a defender.

Yup, definitely a ‘LANDROVER 110’. Sounds like a nice original Landy, any pics?

Bizarrely it should be written as a “OneTen”, even though the badges say “LandRover110”.
Now you know you’ve not got a Defender you can start correcting people when they say “ nice Defender, mate! “, you say “well, actually it’s not a Defender it’s a...”. They’ll soon get bored and wander off.

My 1990 90 is also not a Defender. It was one of the last turbo diesels made all though today it has a 200tdi.

My 110, 1990 was a pre production run which was given to the French military for assessment. It's a Defender and was one of the first.

My '92 200TDi most certainly IS a Defender

Defender name was used from mid 1990.

Not quite true, you could still get Defender 2.5NA's in the early 1990's.

My 1968 series 2 IS NOT A DEFENDER. I don’t care if you’re a good looking woman, it’s not a defender and it’s certainly not a ****ing jeep.

I think some of the later military na landys were built after the defender name came in.
