Highlights
- Just over 7,000 miles from new
- One of the last of the original Land Rover Defenders
- Immensely practical seven-seater, long-wheelbase station wagon
The Appeal
While Land Rover now enjoys success with its new Defender, we were sad to see the demise of the original whose lineage could be directly traced all the way back to the first Series 1s in 1948. First registered on 22nd August 2016, this is one of the last of the old separate chassis Defenders, which we think makes it rather special.
We note that this Land Rover has only covered a little over 7,000 miles in its lifetime and therefore it remains in really good condition. If you’re one of the many people who’ve always wanted to get your hands on an original Defender, then this is a great opportunity.
The History and Paperwork
- V5C present
- MOT valid until December 2023
- Has never failed an MOT or accrued any advisories
- Accompanied by a printed copy of the Land Rover online service record
- Four recorded services with SHB Hire Ltd Southampton
- The vendor informs us that there are five stamps in the service book
- Last recorded service was in January 2020 at 4,776 miles
The Interior
- Looks to be entirely original and unmodified
- Little wear to speak of
- Forward facing folding third row of seats
Being a Defender, it should come as no surprise that the interior is functional and utilitarian.
There is little wear to speak of and the only thing we spotted right away was some slight deterioration to the steering wheel centre.
All seven of the seats exhibit few signs of use and we like how this Defender is fitted with the forward facing third row. These two seats can spend most of their life tucked up out of the way, ready to be deployed when you suddenly need to become a minibus.
The protective floor mats are in good order and the same goes for the headlining. We couldn’t see any damage to the dashboard either and all the switchgear looks to be in fine shape.
These interiors are very hard wearing and since this Land Rover has seen little use, everything is in great condition.
The Exterior
- Indus Silver
- Straight bodywork
- Exoskeleton roll cage and snorkel fitted
This Defender looks particularly purposeful with those big tyres, snorkel and exoskeleton roll cage. You could be on the next boat to the wilderness with nothing left to do other than pack your toothbrush, which is part of what makes these vehicles so appealing.
The Indus Silver paintwork appears in good condition. On the day the photographs were taken the car was a little grubby but we can forgive a Land Rover for splashing in muddy puddles! The bodywork appears really straight and we couldn't see any dents or indications that it has seen a great deal of off-road use.
Underneath, the chassis looks really sound and while there is a little surface corrosion making itself known in places, everything appears in great shape. It retains its original five-spoke alloys which remain in good condition and the General Grabber tyres offer a good compromise for use on and off the beaten track.
The Mechanics
- 2.2-litre turbocharged diesel engine
- Looks smart under the bonnet
- Apparently drives well with no issues to report
Equipped with a 2.2-litre diesel engine, this Defender is not the car to take on track days, but this immensely dependable powertrain proves exceedingly effective when being asked to work hard or traverse challenging terrain. With a six-speed manual gearbox, this car is sufficiently long-legged to tackle motorways which makes it a great all-rounder.
We’re informed that it drives really well and the vendor does not report any faults.
Summary
There’s something very lovable about the original Defender and whether you’d put it to work or have a fun family weekend wagon, this Defender will undoubtedly be a great addition to your driveway.

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.
