For 1993 model year only, Land Rover got an exemption from U.S. DOT to import only 500 to the states. This was a once in a lifetime deal and nothing like this has happened since. This was highly unusual for a major automotive manufacturer like Land Rover. The NAS Defender 110s were like no other 110 ever built and it took the factory a year to hand produce the 534 that were made for North America. 500 were specifically built for the U.S., 9 prototypes were built, and 25 were built for Canada. They all came in Alpine white except for one special black unit for Ralph Lauren. This particular example was built in October of 1992. Newport Auto Center of Newport Beach, California sold it new on January 8th, 1993 to Pikes Peak Champion and renowned automotive photographer, Jeff Zwart. He is still the registered owner and we are extremely honored and excited to help him pass this historical Defender onto its next caretaker. As Zwart said, this vehicle is really part of his family and is his second longest automotive relationship next to his original 914-6 that was his first car when he was a teenager. The memories he has created with this 110 would fill volumes. It has been with him on his travels through over a dozen different countries and countless States. Here are a few of the highlights of the excursions this NAS 110 has been on: 1997 Panama – Alaska Rally 90-competitors from over 16-counries Zwart finished 2nd overall in his 914-6 10,000-mile rally The Defender was his support vehicle for the entire trip Traveled over 13,000-miles in support His father was one of his crew-members Pikes Peak International Hill Climb Supported efforts at more than 10-events Support during his 1994 Open Class Championship for Porsche Drove Porsches to 8 different class wins Camping and Canoe trips Part of the family on countless back-country trips Taken throughout most of the Western United States His kids grew up with this 110 as another member of the family When Zwart was not using the 110 as a support vehicle for his races, rallies, hill climbs, or family camping trips, it lived in a dry garage in either Orange County, California or Aspen, Colorado. Unlike many of the 110s that are driven hard and put away wet, Zwart’s example lived a charmed life. Yes, it was used as it was intended to, but it was never abused or driven beyond its capabilities. It was never put in harm’s way and it was obsessively maintained (as you would expect from a professional race driver). Looking through the receipts and discussing the history with Zwart, it is clear that he wanted his Defender to always be in top condition and ready for the next adventure at a moment’s notice. He has even retained the original Panama-Alasaka Rally book for this 110 and finisher’s chrome badge (see pics). Highlights of recent services include: New clutch Replaced suspension (shocks and springs) BF Goodrich Mud/Snow All Terrain tires (nearly full tread) New catalytic converter (will pass CA smog) New muffler New transfer case (nearly $7k) 60k mile major service done at 48k-miles Replaced power steering box Replaced left-rear wheel cylinder Front brakes replaced at 46k-miles New headliner Frequent oil services/inspections Upon closer inspection, it is clear that this is not only one of the most historically significant NAS 110s, but it is in one of the best original condition examples. Yes, these vehicles are built stout and rugged; however, there are parts of them that are extremely fragile. The cloth interiors are susceptible to wear and tend to show distress early on. The body shells are very thin aluminum and get damaged easily. Finally, the chassis are prone to rust. You will see many of the 110s on the market in need of a complete restoration by time they hit 80k-miles. Zwart’s 110 is in pristine condition considering the age/miles. It looks like it has lived most of its life in a garage and on dry streets. The chassis is extremely dry with no signs of rot or major corrosion. It has never been in an accident. The paint is all original and verified with a paint meter. It is in excellent shape with just some minor dents on the soft aluminum doors from people pushing them closed. All the glass is in excellent shape as well. The windscreen was replaced with a factory replacement sometime ago by the dealer. The interior is equally as nice and all original. The cloth seats show minimal signs of wear. The headliner is new and looks great (they have a tendency to droop). The dash has no cracks and looks new as well. The door panels and carpet are also in very good condition. Factory Land Rover rubber rain mats have done a great job protecting the carpet. All the gauges, lights, and winch work properly. The factory radio also works, as it should. The A/C blows cold, but the fan only works on the lower speeds. As Zwart dropped the 110 off with me, he said, “I know it sounds cliché, but the Defender is driving better than it every has…” We joked about how it is so true that the day you get rid of your car, it is at its best. But, he was absolutely right. This 110 drives amazingly. I’ve been fortunate enough to experience a few of these including a sub 30k mile example and this drives the best of the bunch. The steering is precise and tracks perfectly. The shifting is butter smooth with no grinding. The clutch feels great and engages properly with no slipping. The brakes aren’t quite like a Porsche, but they still have excellent pedal feel with decent stopping power for the size of the vehicle. Although it’s a heavy vehicle, the engine has good power with strong low-end torque that is quite adequate to get the girth moving along. Whether you are looking for a weekend adventure machine, something to continue to use as a support vehicle, or more of a fun collectible with a great history, this Defender NAS 110 can wear many different hats. This Land Rover comes with the original owners manuals, original wheel removal tools, winch with controller, many service records, diamond plate roof box, electric brake tow controller, spare with both covers, original Panama/Alaska Rally plaques, original Panama/Alaska Rally finisher’s badge (mounted on rear of vehicle), original Rally book for vehicle, front/rear seat rubber floor mats, and original fold up chairs delivered new with the vehicle and never used.
