Selling my lovely 1984 Defender 110 V8, this was a barn find a few years ago, found in a farmers shed that he didn’t use anymore. Was in storage for 6 years before it was put back on the road in 2009. Only 3 Previous owners!! It has only covered 69,600 miles backed up with previous yearly service inspections dating back to 1999. This is a matching chassis truck and is in very good condition, chassis, bodywork, bulkhead and floors are all in great shape. This Defender has been very well looked after by both me, a Land Rover enthusiast and the previous owners. Please look through the pictures and you can see how good this example is. Good Bits v 3 Previous Owners v 69,600 miles from new, that is only 2800 miles a year! v New Exhaust + all gaskets changed this year v Clean Florida title in my name v New engine oil & oil filter v SU Carbs tuned and checked runs great v Clutch fluid flushed & changed v Brake fluid flushed and checked v All wheels balanced and 4 wheel alignment done March 2012 v Prop shaft joints re-greased v Radiator flushed and refilled with correct anti freeze v Recent wheel upgrade stamped with date May 2008, all tyres are Michelin 7.50 R16 4x4 v All door bottoms have solid steel work v Immaculate interior, seats have no tears or sagging v Has side steps & bull bar fitted this year v Working rear wash wipe, interior light and all switches/buttons v Updated side arches to 2008 rubber type There are no known issues with this Defender, it has a solid chassis with no holes or rust problems. This is also the same on the bulkhead and on the door bottoms too, if these are good on a Defender the rest must also be good. All the doors lock properly, don’t drop or sag when opened and I have 2 sets of keys for this truck too. Starts, runs and stops just like it should do, all the gears including high low work spot on. I never did too much mileage in this as it was too good for everyday driving. This is a great looking truck that I know will make the new owner very happy. Gets lots of looks and comments every time I take it out. This will come with a full set of polybush bushes, these are in yellow, I didn’t have time to fit these when I was in the UK, I will also include some Land Rover Enthusiast magazines, a Haynes manual as well as any spares I have such as a clutch, spare wheel with new tyre. I am a huge fan of Land Rovers especially the older ones, I will be sorry to see this one go but I am looking into buying a house in Florida and spend more time here, so I need to get my car collection down to a more manageable number, already have 4 cars in the US and I am only here 5 months a year J. Thanks for looking, happy bidding!! Sold with no warranty expressed or implied.On Oct-28-12 at 20:10:41 PDT, seller added the following information: I have had lots of questions about my reserve price on my trucks, I am looking for offers around $15,000 for each Defender 110, this is way below the price that these normally sell for on ebay! As long as they cover all my costs, purchase, taxes, import fees etc I will be happy to send them to a new home. Any sensible offers will be listened to, reserve price has been lowered to reflect demand!! Good luck & happy bidding!!!
