Er this wasn't supposed to Happen!
I sold my Specialized Kenevo E bike for a good price on Sunday and got £3000 for it with the intention to buy a Levo but this Defender 90 cropped up at a far too cheap price about 3 miles From my house so I snapped it up.

Genuine 1996 CSW in Rioja or Alveston? Red with what looks like original alloys etc, 199k miles


A quick polish then off to ebay it goes! As ive still got my Seirra Leone Defender project to contend with! Laughing

but here's some pics for your viewing pleasure.

You’ll need to let me know what type of polish you use if it’s going to sort the bulkhead below the vents. Make sure you provide ‘after’ pics too. Thumbs Up

That is what I would call a labour of love if ever I saw one 😳

Was starting to have thoughts about what sort of money you'd want for it until I saw the state of the bulkhead... hate to think what state the chassis is in - reckon the RNLI sticker in the rear window gives a hint as to where it's been 😝

Love that colour though 👍

lol it came from a holiday home in West Wales so it was exposed to the coastal air but apparently the chassis is really solid,
ill have a good look around it when I take the ebay pictures after I polish it up and remove all the extras back to factory standard. 2008 Santorini Black 110 XS USW (Sold)

All i did to it was put a new battery on, gave it a hoover and a wax on and off, and off it went 3 days later!

Trader snapped it up to refurb it in Bradford.

She came up well for being in a coastal environment all its life i.e Very Crusty.

The money from the red one above paid for this!
nice 1994 County with 120k miles, completely solid!

Just spent £500 on new interior door cards. cam belt kit and service kit plus a complete front and rear Lucari solutions black premium carpet kit to cover all the bare metal and a new headlining for roof then it'll be ready for its new owner next week fully serviced with 12 months MOT.
