The Appeal
The Land Rover Defender is a truly iconic vehicle. It's longevity, instant recognisability, off-road capabilities and rugged styling are all hallmarks of this famous design. And the 130 inch wheelbase version, as offered for sale here, is one of the most versatile options, ever popular as the perfect base to build the ultimate overland camper.
This particular Defender started out as a military vehicle but has since been demobilised and has been enjoying civilian life for some time now. It has clearly lived life as its designers intended, proudly displaying all the bumps, scrapes and blemishes it has picked up over the years. In recent years it has only covered a few hundred miles annually, so the current owner has decided to let somebody else enjoy it to its full.
The History and Paperwork
- First registered in November 1992
- MoT valid to December 2022
- New chassis believed to have been fitted in 2014
- Recent substantial invoices for mechanical work
The Interior
- Clearly well used
- Tears, marks and blemishes throughout
- Overall still very usable
- Rather unusual aftermarket addition to the dashboard
This Land Rover isn't going to win any concourse events any time soon. Instead, it proudly shows its years of use, every scratch and tear telling a story of a life well lived. The upholstery is clearly well worn, with the front seats looking a little threadbare. These could easily be improved upon if the next owner is so inclined, or we are sure that they will continue to give years of service if you prefer to keep things original.
The rest of the interior is in a similarly scruffy condition. Various items of trim are showing signs of wear and damage, the headlining is marked but still mostly secure. The dashboard is in a similar condition but the vendor reports all the electronics are in order, apart from the interior light not working. Also, the heating system is not working.
The Exterior
- In unapologetically ‘used’ condition
- Replacement chassis reportedly fitted c.2014
- New tyres fitted in 2020
The unmistakable silhouette of a Land Rover defender is universally recognised. This defender 130 benefits from the addition of a load carrying compartment to the rear, which makes it a very practical vehicle.
Overall, the bodywork and paint are in a brilliantly scruffy state. There are dents and scratches and plenty of areas where this Defender is far from new. But this is what these Land Rovers are all about: being used and getting dirty without being precious about their condition.
Obviously this car wears its scars with pride, but the external trim is all present and the tyres have reportedly only covered 700 miles. The vendor reports that the chassis was believed to have been changed in 2014, with the underside now exhibiting the usual amount of surface corrosion.
In all, this is a very practical vehicle, which you won’t be afraid to use in any situation.
The Mechanics
- Clutch cylinders both replaced in 2019
- Steering box replaced
- Much recent expenditure
The 2.5 litre diesel power plant in this Defender 200Tdi is a well known engine, capable of a very long service life. It is said to run exactly as you would expect for a Land Rover of this age, with nothing untoward and no unusual noises reported. The vendor states that there can be a little smoke on startup but this may be because the car is used relatively infrequently.
The accompanying handwritten invoices from Avondale Garage show that the car has been well looked after in recent years. It has received new tyres, a power steering unit and clutch master and slave cylinders, as sell as a host of other work.
Summary
This Defender is an honest example of a Land Rover which has enjoyed a life of use. Its condition will allow the next owner to continue to enjoy the car in its natural habitat, without worrying at all.
These Land Rovers were designed to be driven and to survive all that life can throw at them. This Defender is an example of the very practical 130 inch wheelbase model, which remains popular to this day and can be used for a huge variety of purposes.
This car has received recent mechanical expenditure and its next owner will be able to enjoy it to its full.

Come funzionano le offerte massime
Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.
Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.
Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.
Incrementi di offerta automatica
- Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
- Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
-
- Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
- Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.
| Ammontare dell'offerta | Incremento |
|---|---|
| Da £0 a £9,999 | £100.00 |
| Da £10,000 a £49,999 | £250.00 |
| Da £50,000 a £99,999 | £500.00 |
| £100,000 + | £1,000.00 |
Superamento immediato dell'offerta
Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.
Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.
Offerte massime di pari ammontare
Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.
Pre-autorizzazione
Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.
Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?
Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.
Problema con l'offerta
Le offerte sono contrattualmente vincolanti. Per tutelare l'utente, sono previste alcune regole nel caso in cui si ritenga che sia stato digitato in modo errato. Si prega di controllare e modificare quanto inserito.
