l was going to bid but it was at the other end of the country.
Although prices have dropped from the post covid surge, this did seem a bargain. The MOT history showed no issues, l was in contact with the seller and he sent me some photos of the chassis which looked very good.

Not the end of the world on a defender, but might explain the price.

Looks like it sold anyway. No doubt we wait for the new owner introduction soon

Welcome to Landyzone brethren

l did notice the CAT C back in 2017.
I guess it depends on what happened to it, l never asked the seller, it could have been stolen recovered minus doors and bonnet

MOT's since seem to show no issues.

lt is in the higher £700 road tax category

@lightning if as you described, then that would've been cat D.

Cat C
Structural damage i.e. likely bent chassis or bulkhead.

Some jobsworth has changed the labels, but what was wrong with the old ones?

We are now on Cat S (C) or N (D).
S is Structural and N is Non-structural.

Just checked and it’s sold…

Well, someone got a nice late model TD5 110 CSW for under £9k

Cat C and no pics of the chassis, engine bay etc
must have been restored to such a high standard, pics werent necessary

Exactly.
New chassis fitted

...... probably not or that would've been highlighted as a selling point!

It could be a right can of worms and only fit for parts, best off leaving it where it was.

Seemed cheap!
