    Anyone near Gatwick Airport?

    Yeah I wasn't happy when I woke up to being outbid!

    Anyone near Gatwick Airport?

    Yes, hence why I'm looking for 1991 and older.

    He was actually cool with it, I spoke with the seller a bunch. My highest bid might have not went through, or I clicked off the screen too fast. Who knows what happened, oh well! Whatever I purchase, will end up on a ship. Back on the hunt

    200TDI Disco

    I'm looking at importing a 200TDi Disco, but have had almost an impossible task of trying to find a 1990 or 1991 model. Is there a better place to look other than gumtree, or Ebay? Does someone here have one they know of by chance? Thanks

    Anyone near Gatwick Airport?

    I appreciate it. The vehicle was on Ebay, and it looks like my highest bid for some reason didn't go through. Looks like a lost it, without meaning to! Not happy!

    I'm located in the U.S. and looking at purchasing a Disco 5 mins from Gatwick. If anyone is near, and can check out a Disco for me, that would be much appreciated.

    Yeah you might be right. I would go either way, but obviously purchasing a whole vehicle would be easier and probably end up costing me the same at this point.

    Are disco are very cramped. If you're over 5' 10" it's a tricky fit. The space for your knee are terrible and same with height for your head. The range classics provide more space here.

    We only had the defender for a few years in the mid 90s, and those go for 50+k and only v8

    1989 started the 200 TDI, though, right? That auction still has two days left, Curious to see how high it sells for.. It would be a lot easier if someone on here, had one for sale. Much easier to work with someone, VS an Ebay auction when I'm so far away.

    That would be beyond helpful, and I could toss some money if need be. I'm located in North Carolina. Considering you probably have way more knowledge of what the going rate is for a Defender that I can import, what would you say I can pick a decent running one up for? 1990 and older.. Thanks!

    Ah that's not good. I should probably buy off an enthusiast from this site then, just haven't seen the right one pop up in the for sale section yet. You guys are a great help!

    Does that seem like it's too cheap or something?

    People want crazy money for all the parts here, that is why I decide I would just try and source everything myself... I didn't realize that Defenders were so cheap, so it might be in my best interest to just purchase one and use that this season.

    I love these 110s! This seller didn't leave an email contact, and calling over the phone would cost a fortune. https://www.gumtree.com/p/land-rover/land-rover-defender-110-5-door-county-station-wagon.-200-tdi-in-white.-h-reg-1990.-/1155856696

    I have a bunch of vehicles. I own a business, and this is the kinda stuff I like to do in my spare time. Tinker with vehicles, and take some time to travel and explore with my girlfriend.

    My disco was mainly used for traveling across the us, and on a lot of back roads, Sand dunes, etc. The defender would be used for the same thing, just traveling and spending time off paved roads for camping.

    No I will just import a whole defender and replace my disco with it. I will decide at a later date what I want to do with the disco

    I've had a tough time finding a TDI Disco, that's in good shape. The law here is. It has to be 25 years or older, and it also has to have the same engine it came with. So I couldn't import a Disco that was originally a V8, but was swapped over to a TDI. Defenders sell for alot here, and it...
