Description
OVERVIEW
SBX Cars is proud to offer for sale this 2023 Land Rover Defender 110 Carpathian Edition showing just 3,600 mi (5,793 km) on the odometer at the time of cataloging. Finished in Carpathian Grey and Narvik Black over an Ebony Miko Suedecloth and leather cabin, this flagship Defender is fast, luxurious, and capable.
When Land Rover returned one of its most iconic nameplates to the American market in 2020, it was cause for celebration. Styling leaned hard on nostalgia for the mid-90s NAS Defender with the latest off-road technologies and hardware packed into the modern D7x platform underneath.
That signature Defender style was on display and these all-new models radiate exclusivity and sophistication, particularly in the Carpathian Edition spec of today’s Defender 110. Fitted with a supercharged V8 and dressed up in a striking combination of satin and gloss finishes, the Carpathian makes a statement.
The fact that it can go from 0-60 in less than 5 seconds, ride nearly a foot off the ground, and wade through some 35 inches of water is a testament to the Defender's unique position in the luxury SUV segment. The pinnacle Defender upon release, this Carpathian Edition is a special Land Rover.

This long-awaited reinterpretation of the Defender is a clear tribute to the wonderfully boxy style of those old-school Land Rovers combined with all the best modern technology. In the Carpathian Edition guise of this particular example, the Defender is transformed into a sophisticated SUV bristling with swagger.
Fitted with a seriously potent supercharged V8 and Land Rover’s famed off-road chops, the next owner of this 2023 Defender 110 Carpathian Edition will truly be able to do it all.

Comments & Questions
maverickg888 Hi. Beautiful vehicle! Doesn't look like any maintenance has been performed yet other than the initial service listed on Carfax, correct? And seems that the car was originally registered in FL but is now in CA. Its entire mileage is the cross-country trip, or was it trailered?
EMS007 Thank you for the compliment and question. The vehicle received it's first service on February 20, 2024. I have sent the report to SBX Cars and it should be in the gallery. And, yes, the Defender was trailered cross-country.

Mitswami Hello Mital and thank you for your questions. I have a reserve on the vehicle, but the number is not revealed. You must bid to win. As for the conversion question, anything is possible, but I would recommend that you do your own research around whether it is doable and, if so, what it would entail/cost.
