How many brand new ones do you want?

Those asking prices you see here by the way once were about 50% higher, but these spec owners who thought to make a killing with buying and later reselling these Autobiographys missed the point that this version turned out to be the least popular of the three end of production limited editions here in Switzerland. Virtually no takers for this type of bling here in this country. The Heritage and Adventure models in contrast sold like hot cakes. Eric You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation. http://youtu.be/yVRlSsJwD0o https://youtu.be/vmPr3oTHndg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GtzTT9Pdl0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABqKPz28e6A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLZ49Jce_n0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvAsz_ilQYU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8tMHiX9lSw https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dxwjPuHIV7I https://vimeo.com/201482507 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSixqL0iyHw |

What did you think of the satin paintwork? When I looked at it a couple of weeks ago I really liked it

The satin finish was not to my taste ... the black top was a very metallic finish that looked good but the satin was only ‘ok’ to my opinion, but thats not a negative comment, just not my style.

Several of those still for sale brand new here. Below link to one of those offered by a main dealer. From the beginning the Swiss market did steer away from the Autobiography edition, while the two other final editions sold like hot cakes. Our importer misjudged the Swiss market’s taste, they initially got 60 Autobiography editions allocated as per their request, but quickly had to scramble back when they saw the rejection to that version here, and renegotiated that quota downward with Solihull. I know of only one Autobiography that got sold here in Geneva, to a Middle East national. In all of Switzerland never seen an Autobiography on the road or on a Land Rover event. Sharp contrast with the Adventure and Heritage models which you see daily. If interested in a brand new Autobiography in that marvellous
 gold tone, go for the one below I would say, or for a few others that are still offered. Asking prices remain high, but after all this time wouldn’t be surprised if a bid wouldn’t be welcomed. Talking with others here comes back to always the same conclusion. You don’t want to be seen in a truck like that.

I don't think Switzerland was particularly unusual in that regard. It appears to have been the least popular final edition model everywhere. Darren

Being an ex owner I loved it however I hated the two jump seats it really compromised the rear load area more than happy with the 90 Bowler HT although shes going to have to go as well soon
