Equipment
2,495/107hp turbocharged diesel, 5-speed, aftermarket CD player, mudflaps, hardtop, white wheels, Michelin tires.
Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
Paint is generally good however there is some rust staining on the seams of the windscreen support and thick spots near the door mirrors. All weatherstripping looks old and dried out. The engine is quite oily on the underside and the underside of the truck has noticeable oxidation starting. The interior isn't overly worn, but the dash has some fading. A Defender that looks fine from a distance, but is no better than used car condition.
Market commentary
A Euro spec model with a quick truck-like pass through cosmetics and (the new owner hopes) mechanical freshening. It's a working Defender and no soccer mom is going to be flattered with the noisy diesel engine, the 5-speed or the utilitarian cosmentice. This result makes sense, but it has serious utility on the ranch or farm at this price.
