TD5 110 CSW Nene Prepared Nov 1998
I have decided I am not using it enough to justify keeping it.
Black/grey genuine CSW. Registered November 1988.
68k genuine miles. Former keepers 5. Supplied via Nene Overland. Just passed MOT about a month ago.
It has the following upgrades which were fitted by Nene in 2008:
ECU and transfer box remap
Diff guard
A bar and Hella 1000's
Detachable towbar.
Rear bumperettes
Eberspacher heater (brilliant! and works all night with a pipe to heat your tent!), and timer.
Rear worklamp
500w inverter
Rear auxillary power sockets
Full load mat
Waxoiled vehicle
Heated seats by Waeco
Strip lamp in rear
Toad Ai606 alarm
Windows tinted all round
Safari snorkel and wading/breather kit.
Middle seat recoiling seatbelt.
Last dealer service was at 60k 09/10 I have subsequently serviced it myself with the correct oil. It has just had a filter and oil change, which I have changed every 3.5k. I have deleted the egr. The bench seats have been removed but I have one of them, I have a letter from Nene Overland confirming it is now an 8 seater, essential for insurance. It had a new battery £148 in April 2011.
The rear door had an internal crack in it and I have removed the spare wheel carrier. The alloy has split along the bottom of the window, it can be sorted with a checker plate piece about £30, or a new door can cost as little as £120 off ebay. I was happy with it as it was as it does not leak. There is quite a bit of paint bubbling on the rear door, and the odd spot on the car itself. All the doors are very good including the bottoms, however one door has a bit of exposed corrosion near the latch. Techno interior
Kept in heated garage for the last 18 months.
It does not leak any oil and is the best driving Defender I have owned. Fantastic in the snow.
