Hello!
Just bought my first Land Rover, myself and my wife have recently moved back from Dubai after living there for 3 years.
Always loved the defenders! And I think I've found a really good one!!
I am the third owner from new, the first owner was the Police force, it was kitted out for surveillance work in the back. With a ladder fitted to the rear and checker plate on the roof with a hole cut out for an aerial of some sort?!
The second owner was an older gentleman who lived not too far from me and just used it pottering around now and then.
Over all the police force barely used it, 750 miles to be exact. The older gentleman put only 6100 since owning it from 2007.
I picked it up with just over 6900 miles on the clock, with all the old MOTs and services that match up. It was originally white, but the last owner had it resprayed in green.
I have a few things that I'd like to get done to it that I'll do over time. But first job is sorting out the small amount of blue smoke that comes out during the first 5/10 minutes of driving. I'm assuming it could be the valve stem seals, but not to sure yet.
Look forward to learning all I can about the defender here on this forum!!
