    I will try and find the engine number but it’s not there, if I’m looking in the right place. Will look again tomorrow.

    I think its a "ringer"

    It is looking that way, what would you do with it? I don’t think I can afford to let it go a potential be crushed or whatever they do with them

    I think its a "ringer"

    Always liked them, always loved the look of defenders, nearly brought one 10 years ago, thought this was a great deal. To be honest the mrs is used to it, my 72 bay screen camper had some hidden gems when i brought that! doh

    I think its a "ringer"

    I think its increasingly looking like its a TD5, the question is what do i do for the best ? What happens in 5 years if i want to sell it? do i just say its past can't be verified. Would putting it on a private plate make a difference or make it look more dodgy ? Thanks

    I think its a "ringer"

    The thing with the HPI check is in essence its right, id for the vehicle wont show as stolen as it would be the TD5 that is. For someone like me with limited knowledge it all checked out. The V5 says 90 Defender Turbo Diesel 2.5 ltr - check. Body type - ligth 4x4 utility - check colour - green...
