Overpriced??? That's a real bargain!

...at least, compared to this, prices over here in the Netherlands are mad!
and than, this price is WITHOUT the special BPM tax (which will add another 93 K € ... )

So that Autobiography would be €291.900 on the road price in the Netherlands. For ease of conversion for our UK friends that means £226.279 at todays exchange rate. For that price I hope the dealer would agree to throw in some free rubber mats, yes?

Alternatively in Holland you could ask dealer to raise the roof by 3 cm or so, which understand would bring tax down quite a bit, no? But then again, who wants to drive a brand new SW with such a raised roof?

Eric You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation.

^ Youre quite right Eric... They say living in Switzerland is expensive, but I guess driving a Defender there is way cheaper than overhere - You know about the tax here (road tax and BPM)...

2013 Defender 130 Puma 2.2 HCPU Santorini Black

If you only need two seats you could raise the roof, etc...
I need the the rear seats, why I drive the 130. Can't afford a new 90 or 110 as a family car.

^ Yep, that's why mine is 20 years old - but still going strong, as my every day car! Cheers, Vincent

Ah wel Vincent. I got my vat back. Road tax is about 460 per year. And depreciation helps to keep my income tax under control. 😄
