It'll be more or less a brand new Defender with a modern engine that's relatively unique so why wouldn't you like having it as a 15 plate if it was possible?

Because classics are cooler

It'll be classic eventually as I'll have no intentions of selling it and probably drive it until I can't jump into it anymore


Yea, most of the Irish insurance companies won't insure a car fully comp over 10 years old now and will refuse to insure a car 15 or 20 years old unless on a classic policy. Granted, a trade policy will sort that out next year but it's just less things to cause issues if it's newer really

Everyone seems to have jumped on the `its too expensive` row. If the guy is talking about a new chassis and a TDV8 then money is maybe available. Surely if you look into the vosa side of it and stick by their rules then maybe just maybe you would get a new yearly reg. At this point a 151 could be acheivable
