Thanks for your response Jeremy. I think part of it is due to me being so used to more modern cars. I've had a response from the dealer saying they will look into the bits I raised on the test drive. The rest of the car looks in good nick and seems pretty solid. Looks like I'll have to wait for this second bloody lockdown to be over before I can do anything though!

Thanks for the response guys! It was a typo for 1991! My apologies for any confusion there. Sounds like this one might be one to avoid. Thank you for the advice. I will keep looking for the right one. Regards, Jack

Hi All! So I'm looking to get my first defender. I have found a 1999 200 tdi Defender County SW 110. I test drove it today and somethings just felt off. But having only driven modern cars in not sure if this is just how it should be. So below I've bullet pointed the things that felt a bit off. - the accelerator had a fair amount of play in it before it actually did anything to increase revs. - the break was "squishy" and did not slow the car very quickly at all! - the clutch was really soft then before it actually bit it hot really stiff to push down. - the steering was really heavy felt like there was no power steering. Is any of this normal or would this be one to avoid?
