Hi all.

Firstly, hello, as I'm a new joiner to the forums here on Landyzone. :5bseeya:

Just looking for a bit of information. We currently run two Defenders, a 90 County 300Tdi and a 110 CSW 2.4 Tdci. Both great motors.

The problem is, that I need to change to a Commercial vehicle for various reasons, will probably trade in the 110 and have been looking at options. I've been on the Official Landrover website, and noticed that the Defender pricelist includes first years RFL of £210 as opposed to the £450 odd quid that our 110 costs us every year. Is this because ALL new Defenders are now registered as N1 Light Commercial Vehicles, irrespective of whether utility/double cab or passenger station wagon? Was this some EU directive, that I missed?

If that's the case, I'd be over the moon, as I'd be able to have a new passenger Landy AND a commercial, all in one car.

Having my cake and eating it!!

If someone could clarify the situation, I'd be very grateful.

Many thanks for your help.

Thanks for the welcome.


I was feeling helpful, or all you would normally have got was the first line.. :rolleyes:

At least I posted the link to save you having to do it yourself and I've helped yu save the wear and tear on your keyboard. ;)
 
They are in Italy for the last 2 years, I believe because they don't meet EU pedestrian impact standards. I bought my 110 as a commercial, not sure what drawbacks there might be to it, if any.
