Even the Hardtop has no hiding place.

Now I’m no stranger to the 110 hardtop, I didn’t think the hardtop could be embarrassed.
The example below is, well a crime against a helpless Defender and down right robbery, though you do get a plywood lining or is it teak at this price.

Whenever I see a Defender on oversize alloys I can't help but think of one of these:

2008 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 CSW Alpine White

The only thing majorly wrong with it is its £30k over priced - everything else can be toned down or not on individual choice.

Well I've got to say the Kahn front end looks less hideous without the "wide body kit". (And I do mean less hideous - not good

)

The twin exit exhaust looks terrible with that mess of exhaust winding its way across from the driver's side

And finally you'd have thought that for the 50 odd grand they'd throw in a rear headlining

Knock a 0 off the price tag, though, and I'd probably buy it - return to standard and convert into an overland camper

Edit: they even throw in a rusty rear cross member

It is a 3+ year old Defender with 300 miles on the clock.

Asking £56k for it.

Headlights standard filament, rear crossmember standard I.e. rusty. Plywood to floor and wheel arch boxes but what looks like cheap shuttering boards to main side panels.

However as an added bonus you do get a quilted and perforated leather key ring.

Yes I am really going to rush out and pay £20k over the top for that must have key ring!

Hmmm might have to start increasing our prices to pay for that key ring and key.

That key ring and key is probably costing more then what I would get for our red 110 if we sold it. There is little chance of me selling it though.

I know what I prefer so you might be safe Sulisuli

If you do have to increase your prices I would totally understand.......I will just have to ask for a bigger “DISCOUNT”

You may well try and use that nasty D word in my presence just be warned you may well be told to go wash your mouth out with soap and water. There again I might just feed you the bar of soap!

Well I may be losing my touch.

However Sulisuli it is a good job you are not organising timetables

2:07 pm to 4:04pm is a travel time of 1 hr and 57minutes not 2 hours and 3 minutes.

Thinking about it Sulisuli are you sure you do not arrange the timetable for British Railways?
