2023 Land Rover Defender 90 X-Dynamic SE

The 2023 Defender 90 D250 MHEV X-Dynamic SE occupies an appealing position in the Defender range: the compact three-door body paired with a high-specification trim level that adds meaningful kit over the standard car. With 20,591 miles from a single owner on a 23-plate, it's covered very little ground for its age — the sort of history that points to weekend and leisure use rather than daily commuting.

Land Rover's 3.0-litre straight-six diesel mild hybrid delivers 246 bhp and 569 lb-ft of torque, enough to haul the Defender to 60 mph in 7.6 seconds despite its considerable mass, and it's rated to tow 3,500 kg. The X-Dynamic SE specification brings a meaningful suite of technology, including the 11.4-inch touchscreen, 3D surround camera, 12-way heated electric memory front seats, and Blind Spot Assist. Factory options fitted to this example include a sliding panoramic roof and black roof rails — the latter complementing the black exterior finish particularly well on the 90's upright silhouette.

The X-Dynamic SE sits toward the upper tier of the Defender 90 D250 trim hierarchy, offering a balance of off-road capability and on-road comfort technology. Two-zone climate control and Apple CarPlay round out the cabin equipment, making this a well-equipped short-wheelbase Defender that remains practical without sacrificing refinement.
