Hi there, I have to be honest, when buying my 1992 200tdi a few years ago, I can't say I really knew a lot about defenders, I'd always fancied one and bought mine on a bit of a whim......
Anyway, I'm looking at a 1999 td5 on Monday, 96000 miles on the clock. I was looking for a top 5 things to look at/check etc when on the driveway and during the test drive to hopefully reduce the likelihood of buying a dud. I'm sure everyone will have different ideas, but for someone who is still quite new to all this, and doesn't pretend to be mechanically advanced, some sensible advice would be very welcome. Cheers.
