Well, if it's been restored to the highest standard it might make that money.

It would have to be show winning condition, but the listing says that it is.
 
l agree, the front is awful, although you could instantly improve it by removing the black front grille.
I would say that to get top money it needs to be kept original, but it's not old enough to make the £40,000 they want for it.
For that you'd need to have done an S1 or maybe an early genuine SW.

For a later Land Rover/Defender you'd probably get more money by blinging it up, as here, to appeal to the "new money" rather than a genuine collector.

Anybody who buys this to use as their daily driver, rather than to squirrel away in a garage and polish, is still going to do a lot better financially than if they bought an ordinary car.

IF they kept it in good order!
 
Yes, you can't buy one of these and get away with just throwing it at a dealer every 12 months for a service.
 
You don't need to take the bonnet off, the sound deadening pieces for TD5 are self adhesive and you can stick them on with the bonnet up.

l haven't done the headlining on mine, l think the only way to make mine any quieter on the motorway now would be to reduce engine RPM, either by fitting a Discovery transfer box or an overdrive.
Have bought the Dynamat kit and will fit this weekend
