The new 2012 model is £700 extra and with the Commercial pack and body in full Orkney Grey it is just under £29k + VAT and that is before i spring my 3% NFU discount on them... They have a brand new one in stock in Silver with more or less the same spec but in 6 speed and i really cant see why anyone would spend the same money on any Defender.. they are really well appointed and 100% tax and VAT deductable.
Interior wise as good as any Hi-end limousene. 2008 RS4 gone, 123d M Sport, and a Puma 90 XS.. |

I doubt if you will get any discount off list if you trade in... better to sell privately first, plenty of demand for good Defenders. Even the dealers are buying from us, the great unwashed. 2008 RS4 gone, 123d M Sport, and a Puma 90 XS.. |

Pom, i wouldn't touch it as it is an import and not supplied by a UK dealer... it will not have the upgraded 255bhp engine or the 8 speed autobox... no LR rescue, no LR warranty and no dealer to ram it through thier windows either? For £1k more you can get a legit one.
Try trading it in and the chassis number will give it away. 2008 RS4 gone, 123d M Sport, and a Puma 90 XS.. |

Can you see any reason why anyone would buy another Defender when such quality and room and is such a complete vehicle is available for less than a 90XS?
Roll on the new Defender as the old one has run its course for me anyway? 2008 RS4 gone, 123d M Sport, and a Puma 90 XS.. |

Because they are a car wholesaler and like Carpoint they buy cars that are earmarked for abroad.... LR won't honour any warranty over a year old and the insurance will not like imports and Assist will hang up on you. Also they are not a LR dealer which is a bit of a giveaway? 2008 RS4 gone, 123d M Sport, and a Puma 90 XS..

Bought my usw from them last year, and yes it came from a lr dealer not an import, collected it from marshalls peterborough, a genuine lr dealer . they are a broker and you pay the dealer direct...

OK, but that is an old model now and with NFU discount a D4 Commercial would be much cheaper direct.. also the colour is now obsolete. 2008 RS4 gone, 123d M Sport, and a Puma 90 XS..
