2004 Land Rover Defender 110 TDi

Highlights

  • The ubiquitous Land Rover Defender, finished in an imposing, plain black
  • Original 2004 Defender 110 with no major modifications, complete with six-seater crew cab
  • Thorough service history with invoices and handbooks
  • Freshly MoT'd with no advisories

 

The Appeal

 

Whether it’s due to its royal warrant or sheer ruggedness, the Land Rover Defender is a constant presence in the UK. Practically unchanged since its earlier years, the Defender’s boxy profile and roaring diesel engine are still common sights in rural idylls, and remain one of the most capable off-roaders on the market. The crew cab provides the practicality of the truck bed with a six-seater passenger vehicle - tow vehicle, off-roader or Sunday driver, this Defender is about as versatile as it comes. 

 

This example has a good working history, a full stack of invoices and shows minimal wear commensurate with age. Since the original Defender ended production in 2016, these rugged vehicles are constantly being worn down due to their often utilitarian roles - so examples like this are becoming increasingly rare.

Summary

 

While the Land Rover is ubiquitous, the nature of their work means that they’re often kept until completely life expired. As a result, it’s a rare call to see a 2004 vehicle arrive in such good condition, with all of its original fabric. Thanks to the crew cab, this one's going to be a perfect family car on the town as readily as it will be scaling the moors on a weekend!

 

While it’s no luxury car, every ounce of that utilitarian power is clear to see and feel from this fabulous example. If you haven’t had the pleasure of going up a dirt road in one of these, it’s the perfect opportunity to see what all of the fuss is about.

About Max Bids

The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.

Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.

Anti-sniping

Car & Classic prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.

Auctions are extended by 3 minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.

Auto-bidding increments

  • If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
  • If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
    • Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
    • We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.

Bid Amount Increment
£0 to £9,999 £100.00
£10,000 to £49,999 £250.00
£50,000 to £99,999 £500.00
£100,000 + £1,000.00

Automatically outbid immediately

When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.

You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.

Matching max bids

When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.

Pre-authorisation

We may hold a pre-authorisation charge on your card until the end of the auction when the hold will be cancelled. If you win, we'll take a security deposit which counts towards the payment for the vehicle and isn't any extra cost to you.

What are pre-bids?

A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.

Problem with your bid

Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
