What should I look for when buying a used Land Rover Defender?

Key things to evaluate:

• Fuel efficiency: The Defender 110 is rated by Natural Resources Canada at 12.0 litres per 100 kilometres combined (13.1 city, 10.6 highway) with the four-cylinder and just a tick higher with the six, while the two-door Defender 90 is actually a little less fuel efficient with the smaller engine.
• Infotainment: For 2026, the Defender receives a larger 13.1-inch touchscreen that slots into the same place on the dashboard as the previous 11.4-inch screen and continues to integrate wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
• Safety package: Land Rover covers the bases with adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, blind spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, and a surround-view camera system.

Which Land Rover Defender trim should I buy?

The 2026 Land Rover Defender offers these trims:

• Defender 90: The two-door body style suits you if you want the shortest, most manoeuvrable Defender shape, and it keeps the model’s rugged character front and centre.
• Defender 110: This is the best-value choice for most buyers, pairing the four-door layout with the Defender’s core capability and broadest everyday usefulness.
• Defender 130: The stretched body style adds more space and a more substantial presence, making it the right fit if you want the largest Defender format.
• Defender X: This trim adds more black exterior trim, including a blackout treatment for the front fascia and hood, for a more aggressive look.
• Trophy Edition: This edition brings Sandglow Yellow paint that recalls the Camel Trophy and suits buyers who want a more heritage-inspired appearance.
• Octa: The high-performance 110-derived model adds massive fender flares, enormous all-terrain tires, wider ride height and track width, and the 6D Dynamics suspension system for buyers who want the most extreme Defender experience.

What is the Land Rover Defender's resale value?

The table shows broad downward movement across the model range, which is good news if you are shopping used.

The 2021, 2024, and 2022 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
