Bit of advice.........am upto speed on Series landys with my resto in full swing (109 Series 2a SW) but fancy a Defender too and not too gen'd up on those.

Thoughts on this one. Going to see it on the weekend and fancy a bit of V8 in my life (it's a 2nd car and will do 3k a year).

My thoughts are its around £4k too much even considering the engine and box?

Ye obviously spent loads of brass, but then casually mention "the diff lock light doesn't work", you'd think they would fix that if it was "just a wiring issue", dunt add up:confused::confused:
 
There is a massive error there though. It is obviously being sold as a defender but it can't be, it clearly states that the car is absolutely completely rust free!!!:doh:
 
my view is, when people totaly over value thinks to a silly point, and harp on how much been spent and how nice, then mention a small easy fix that needs doing, thats on a major thing like a diff lock...means they generaly are a complete idiot and to be avoided, i woudnt even go look
 
I'd be thinking £5.5k tops and that REALLY is tops

Have a look through auto trader and see what you can find similar to gauge against.

It does seem to have had a lot spent on it, and if it stacks up when you crawl all over it, it could be a fun buy
 
Offer him 5k cash, a fortnight before Christmas ;););), and just point out that no-one else is looking to buy a motor this side of february and there are PLEANTY more landys for sale, stick to your guns, tis a buyers market, even with the snow tax. Good luck.;):cool::cool::cool:
 
I think I'd sooner spend the wedge on the Series..........not so much to go wrong, easier to fix...;)
 
Got a 200TDi instead.

It might be worth it if it was on a galv' chassis and the rest of it's as good as claimed but as it stands the asking price is double what it's worth, if that.
