Kim Basinger has owned exactly one classic Land Rover Defender since new, and now the 4x4 is heading to auction. No second owner, no intermediate garage, no mystery about where it's been. For a vehicle built to be handed down and hard-used, a single-owner history like that is its own kind of pedigree — the kind Palm Beach and Naples collectors know to look for before they even ask about the paint.

With reporting from Robb Report.
