Thanh Vũ |

A Land Rover Defender Series II in Ho Chi Minh City is being sold for up to 2.2 billion VND.

Although priced higher than later Defender versions, this model has special collectible value, making it impossible for many car enthusiasts to miss the opportunity to own it.

The Land Rover Defender Series II was a groundbreaking model, featuring a historic design and notable improvements. It was produced from 1958 to 1961.

The car has a wheelbase of 2.24m (SWB) and 2.77m (LWB), with a distinctive shape created by designer David Bache. Details such as the waistline, side windows and rounded roof are still used on modern Land Rover models, making the car an icon of the brand.

With a 2.25-litre petrol engine, the Defender Series II produced 72bhp, more than its predecessor, the Series I, which had a 2.0-litre engine that produced just 52bhp. It was also the first version to feature a 2.25-litre petrol engine, which became standard for Land Rovers until the mid-1980s, before diesel engines became popular.

A special feature of this car line is the Wagon version with a length of 2.77m, equipped with an optional 12 seats. This not only meets the needs of users but also helps the car to be exempted from special taxes in the UK, creating a difference in the value and popularity of this car model in the following decades.
