Glue Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I'd have been interested if it were a 1983 series 3! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erm £14,500???He fitted the dash paneling and instrument covers very badly, and he even took a photo to show how badly! Really not worth the same as a 2010 90 seen in LRO adds pages! Why build on an '83? Rolling tax exemption? 7yrs to wait then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigelw Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 PMSL Want a laugh? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NO-RESERVE-Modified-SWB-defender-hybrid-galv-chassis-tax-exempt-/272223763471? My favourite quote? "So one important point to this land rover does not need points to retain it been tax exempt. This ruling became law in 1998 check the government website this would be classed as a hybrid as all modifications were done before this period" Someone really doesn't understand the rules! Holy cow, needs a visit from VOSA to 1) explain how the points system actually works 2) to pop it off to the crusher to rid us of this cheapo wanna something and nothing crime against refurbished Defender.

CwazyWabbit Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 It's quite amusing looking it up on the 'Total car check' app. It's supposed to be 1980 88" (not 1983) The old MOT mileages are all over the place. 2009 99720 2010 102006 2011 146678 2012 102006 2013 106352 2014 102006 2015 102632 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happyoldgit Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I know Series prices are on the up but even if it has only 37k on the clock a few quid short of ten grand - really? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Land-Rover-Series-2-II-1961-88-2-25-Petrol-Reg-625-RKX-Only-37k-miles-/262397190338?hash=item3d181760c2:g:P6UAAOSwYmZXF8oX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not of my money! But look at where these vehicles are aimed now, wealthy and interested parties, not neccessarilly enthusiasts. It is nice though.

FridgeFreezer Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 The question of how many accessories it's physically possible to attach to a Defender has been answered once and for all - yours for a mere £20k.

FridgeFreezer Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 It does say the jerry can has never been filled I notice there's a V8 badge on the wing & a TD5 under the bonnet which points to a certain sort of approach - shame as I was quite enjoying trying to work out what on earth it could possibly have been built to do other than compensate for something. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaze upon it in awe: "Custom Built and Unique" I suspect if you unbolted everything the truck would just crumble to dust That's lovely, I like it In all honesty, a hideous waste of money to go shopping and walk the dog. I can think of better ways of improving any vehicle spending half that amount, not to mention actually making it even more awesome off road. Not sure why you'd bother to spend and do so much in two years ownership unless it was a keeper? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
