l have a D250 now 2 1/2 years old and have been thinking the same thing. Keep long term or swap for another old model Defender.

Yes prices have gone up. Side steps are now £1,650
Try vehicle breakers. There's a few Defenders being broken at any one time, you may find one with a tow bar. |

| l'll offer you £120 plus postage as one is broken, don't know if they'll work on my D250 but l would probably break mine getting them off anyway so they'd have to stay on once fitted. |

| No it's not normal. Can you replicate the fault at the dealer so they can see what's happening? |

Update
lf you have a creaking or cracking noise coming from the front and you can't trace it, it's most likely the two front undertrays.
Take them off and you'll find white residue from oxidatio ... |

Love the colour of that Grenadier. They look even better in the flesh than in photos. Well, apart from that front bumper.
But there's aftermarket alternatives available. |

l am actually surprised it's taken so long for the used market to become saturated. When 90% are bought on PCP nobody wants a three year old one that they have to find £50,000 for.

Underpriced or is this the going rate for a 2021 D300 110 now.
