Do people really pay these prices?
I happened to look on the local dealer’s parent company’s used car website this evening as found these Pre-reg and used new Defenders listed - surely nobody pays £16000 over new list for a used P400 X that retails at £84000? And the first car is same engine but lower spec and 2000 miles less than my First Edition yet they are asking £2500 more than I paid in June 2020. If you click on their search facility they have also a 2012 TDCi2.2 HT converted to a SW with 44000 miles on it for £47000 Shocked
Make sure you are sat down before you click the link! The chip shortage is certainly creating some profiteering from the franchised dealers………

2020 D240 1st Edition in Pangea Green with Acorn interior. Now gone - old faithful, no mechanical issues whatsoever ever but the leaks and rattles all over the place won’t be missed!

I was going to put my 1996 TDi300 up for sale but I might be better off selling the 110 for more than I paid for it and go and buy a £5000 2 year old Renault Zoe as my shopping car! I own the 110 so no punishment charges for coming out of a PCP early too. Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come
