I bet JLR classic wish they had made that purchase!

£5,401,400 in Defenders bought in one go. I wonder how much JLR classic now pay for used, per vehicle?

What a twisted situation. No pun intended. You couldn't make this up.

l am just shocked that people will pay £200,000 for an old Defender.

You can buy the best of the old ones for a fraction of that money, there's currently a 110 XS on Ebay with 3,800 miles from new for £38,500.

l know the Twisted ones are blinged up but they're still an old Defender. A lovely vehicle for sure, but better in standard specification.

l've been looking at late model XS 110's and the best are in the region £30-40,000. lf you bought one of those Twisted ones and started to actually drive it, you'd wipe £100,000 off the value almost immediately.

Who actually buys them, lottery winners?
