Over the subsequent years, depreciation rates tend to slow, with an estimated 30‑35 % drop by the third year (from original purchase price). This trend is consistent across the 1990‑2001 range, including the 1993 variant. For used Land Rover Defender price calculations, owners should account for mileage, maintenance history, and restoration levels, which may shift values by up to +10 % for well‑maintained units or -12 % for heavily worn examples.

In both territories, price is primarily influenced by mileage: 50,000 km (31,000 mi) and under typically fetch 20‑30 % more than 120,000 km (75,000 mi).
