Is this just a Hard Top thats been converted?
Hi,

Looking around for a friend and spotted this -

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LAND-ROVER-DEFEN...1163wt_984

Those rear seats don't look correct to me for a genuine CSW.. Is this a hard top with the side panels chopped to accommodate a set of windows and some after-market seats to make it look like (and command a better price) a CSW?

Nice colour though Wink Cheers,
Superspoons

There not the correct rear seats and looks very aftermarket to me. I believe it looks like a bulkhead behind the drivers seat too but cannot be sure. Darren

Definitely a van conversion. Bulkhead behind seats, wheel boxes are wrong and seats look like Exmoor Trim ones. Darren

Also . the rear wheel boxes look to be the square ones, not the factory ones with the angle cut into them, that were fitted to allow pukka rear seats to be fitted California F1, 75th 110 "Kermit", 50th Ann V8, 90 V8 Hybrid, 55 Series 1

No mileage listed either. On top of that there is no way that vehicle is worth that price tag! Mine is the same year had no doubt less miles on it came from a MAIN dealer with 1yr free warrenty. 1 previous owner and cost £15.5k and at the time was only 3yr old and 12k miles.
