Description
P520 CCT – 1997 Land Rover Defender 90 WOLF Soft Top
1997 Land Rover Defender 90 WOLF Soft Top (66,857 miles)
Getting increasingly hard to find in unspoiled condition, this 1997 example is in excellent condition throughout.
Original MOD registration HF 88 AA and designated TUL (Truck Utility Light) by the MOD and XD (Extra Heavy Duty) by Land Rover.
The WOLF Land Rover was tested and rejected, then upgraded and tested again by the British Military before being accepted, and is therefore much stronger and more reliable than the Defender model it is based on.
Engine
300Tdi
The 300Tdi on a Wolf uses a slightly different design of timing cover compared to the civilian version.
Reinforced rear axle
The testing was extremely rigorous and Salisbury axles kept breaking, the axle was redesigned using stronger internals, hubs and outer casing, making one of the strongest land rover axles ever made.
Chassis
The chassis is considerably different in design to the standard Defender chassis even though it looks similar. The side walls are standard, most of the rest is bespoke. The additional rear load bed mounting was to take increased weights as the standard chassis kept punching big dents in the rear floor.
This particular example has had one private owner since being de-mobbed in 2015, and has covered a genuine 100,605km (62,880 miles).

- 300 TDi Diesel Engine
