Defender 90, runs well. Photo's say it all. There were 1,499 Soft Tops produced for the United States in 1997. This model was the most drastically changed, offering customers an upgraded engine, automatic transmission, redesigned center console and air conditioning (which came standard for the first time since 1993). The new power train offered was a 4.0L V-8 engine mated with a four speed ZF Automatic transmission. To accommodate the new tranny, engineers designed an updated center console. The exterior of the 1997 didn't feature any changes from the 1995 model year. Starts right up and drives really well. Been driving it around Brooklyn with minimal problems for the last few years. Taken on a few road trips but not too far. newly repaired: Rebuilt transfer caseNew u joints New gas filter New brake light socket BrakesOil changesTuned upNew radiatorNew power steering gear boxNew 02 sensors.
