Crackers Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 <insert any ad for a Land Rover Defender here> I simply fail to understand how a 25 year old, rusty farm truck can be worth 15k just because it's done less than 5 million miles. Only pisses me off because I want one desperately and they cost more than I've earned in my entire life.

Showed her the pic of the Rapier, clearly she doesn't love me enough. "FRO if you think you're having another one of these" was her reply. Sadly I think divorce would be quite a bit more expensive!

They sell well and for big money. One for $25k is a rarity with most starting in the $30ks. I wouldn’t mind one either, but sadly know that unless I sell my newly running weekender and add a bit on top, a Defender is unlikely to ever be in my future either.

anonymous user Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Trust me, that isn't much work for a 90 to get an Mot. You could fix all the electrical issues in front of the tester and it would still be able to disgrace itself by them failing again when he tried them richardthestag, chodweaver, twosmoke300 and 2 others 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. My little cousin recently bought a 90, with a galvo chassis and an MOT, that actually runs, lights mostly work etc. for less than that. And, yes, I did try my best to talk him out of it ?
