Low mileage late td5? Seems on point, then you need the vat on top...

2015 Defender 110 Puma 2.2 XS CSW Aintree Green

A bit of fresh paint and polish on a lightly used - but definitely not pristine - 12 year old working truck.
There's no way I'd pay £14k for it.
The market might demand that these days for a low miles TD5, but the spec is wrong to appeal to most buyers should he wish to sell it in the future.

A 2006 TD5 with 49k on the clock. It's not a County and it doesn't have the cold pack, both desirable depending on intended use.

Its not quite "last of the TD5" its from March 2006, mine is March 2007 and was close to being on the same production line as the Puma. However the advertised TD5 is nearing the end of the production but not quite !

Has it got service history ?

If all genuine and the chassis and rear cross member are in good order it looks like a reasonable buy. At that milage its just about run in. Price is plus VAT 2007 TD5 90 Hard Top

It's a 10k truck
The paint on the wheels is doge as they've covered the weights with paint.
I'd keep on looking as it's way over priced with none of the wanted bits
As stated the base model doesn't even have an alarm as standard.
Most would want at least county spec for resale value in the future.

2004 Defender 90 2.5 TD XS CSW Zambezi Silver

I'd avoid it, last mot was 53618 miles in June 17, I smell a rat. Go for a XS at that price
