The Appeal

Here at Car & Classic we love a Land Rover, particularly the sturdy Defender. But, lets be honest, right now we’re not here for the all-road capabilities. We’re here for the pizza.

In a small corner of the world of business there is a niche marked ‘Land Rover Pizza Wagons.’ With its unusual and distinctive USP, this market is thriving - just check Youtube. This remarkable 1997 110 TDI has been professionally adapted to take advantage of it. The buyer gets not just a well kept Defender but a whole turn-key business opportunity including pizza van, equipment, branding and even a marque.

The Defender itself is a good example, finished in dark blue with black accent features including the roof. It is clearly a working vehicle but, by its nature, has to be very presentable, which it is. It carries a long MOT to July 2025.

Whether you love pizza and fancy cutting out the middlemen like Pizza Hut, Dominoes and Pizza Express, or you spot the business opportunity, or perhaps you just like Defenders with a twist, this is a proper one-of-a-kind opportunity.
