You have a early ninety. the defender name was only put with the vehicle when the 200TDI onwards engines were fitted.


FYI

1971 - 1983 Series 3 models made
1983 - 1990 Ninety / One ten / One two severn (127) model years
1990 - to present day, Defender 90 / 110 / 130 model years.

Sorry but don't know of any online parts manuals.

Quite a lot are, or at least are close to standard.  Prime example, out of ten Series vehicles I know personally of, only two have something different in the engine department.
