This is a usable, honest, mechanically authentic, numbers-matching (exportable to USA in 2027), solid chassis Defender that isn't over-restored or hidden under fresh paint. I am an engineer and have cared for and maintained this truck to my specification while keeping it garaged and out of foul weather.
