The Appeal
The Defender is a candidate for one of Britain's greatest all time cars. Boxy, simple, and hardy, these were rugged, go-anywhere, do-anything cars that bridged the gasp between leisure machine and agricultural equipment, and quickly became a staple sight of the pastoral lifestyle. To this day, it holds that status with unshakable pride.
The TDI offerings, of course, offered reliable power with improved efficiency over earlier variants, while the County specification adds welcome comfort features to the utilitarian platform. This particular example stands out for its good provenance, having been in the same ownership for over 16 years and benefiting from consistent maintenance throughout that period. It also boasts a full body respray, an impressive paperwork file and a superb level of originality.
