Description
Up for sale is this very smart, super-straight 110 Defender.
Her bodywork is fantastic, as is the paint, and she’s recently had a full service including engine flush, transmission and differential oil change, new spotlamps and starter motor.
She spent most of her life in Singapore, having been imported to the UK in 2018, and upon arrival was treated to the restoration in which she presents today:
- Full respray in Gentian Blue
- New arch flares
- Heavy-Duty Hoop Set / Roll Cage
- Fully removable Exmoor Trim canvas roof
- Driver & Passenger sidesteps
- New rear fold-down seats
She’s showing just shy of 16, 000 miles, but history and age point towards this being 116, 000 (not 2116k!) And this is further backed-up by just how sweet her bulletproof 4C engine sounds, and how positively she selects all of her gears in both High and Low ratio.
Kitted-out for 4 passengers in the rear, all with seat belts, and a bluetooth Marshall speaker fitted in the front console…she’ll be as at home on the streets of Mayfair as she would at the beach or dragging some poor unfortunate out of a muddy festival field.
Built to work, but looks like she hasn’t done a day’s hard graft in her life…so why thrash or trash her now?
She’s not perfect, but she’s nearly 40 years old…and there’s room for the new buyer to improve…which is all part of the bolt-on charm!
Speaking of charm; in just a smidge over 2 years she’ll be eligible for Historic Vehicle status which means tax exemption (and MOT exemption if you’re one to adopt a more laissez-faire attitude towards braking and what-not)…but more importantly she’ll be ULEZ-exempt!!!
She’s available for any inspection, and if there is a particular photo you’d like to see or a question answering please feel free to get in touch and I’ll do my best to get back to you in a timely fashion.
I’m based between Bristol and Bath, so come a take a look.
Thanks for looking,
Jon
