2012 Defender 110 Puma 2.2 XS CSW Orkney Grey

I guess we will find out at the time of the auction? Weird market these days - plus maybe the French registration may help it to sell in your country - as opposed to importing? I recall when I owned a LHD BMW Alpina B8 ii 2008-11, another owner struggled to register one in France as Alpina was not recognised as a make.

How things change...when I was trying to sell my 50th in 2010 I could barely give the thing away (90,000 miles, perfect chassis, body work, interior, LPG system) and swapped it for my current 2022 110 Td5 CSW in the end. Now they're making £40,000 - £45,000 in RHD configuration. Would be interesting to see the final hammer price, the estimate is optimistic I'd say.

2008 Defender 90 Puma 2.4 SVX Soft Top Santorini Black

^^^ This exactly, I thought I got good money for mine in 2012 at £12k for refreshed 76,000 mile 50th

I was pleased when it went as nice as it was I much prefer a nice tuned puma or TD5 to drive and at 12mpg wasn’t pocket friendly

12 MPG. Good to know!! I sat in one of them for sale in 2014 - and wondered if I could live with it. Bought a Yeti instead for the daily commute but wish I'd bought a Puma Defender instead. I was put off by a dealer technician who said not suitable for daily driving. Wish I had not listened. Could have bought a 2012 Defender for maybe 40K then? And still worth most of that now

Yeti was over £30k and wrth less than £10k i guess.

The power to see the future eh?

Mine did closer to 15mpg and with the LPG at half the price of diesel that's the equivalent of 30mpg with the Td5. Nicest Land Rover I've ever owned/driven - will seriously consider converting my Defender to auto when the left leg gives out!

^^^ I do have a heavy right foot and mine was RPI tuned approx 230bhp

I didn’t get on with the antique autobox though.

Still the fastest Defender on my personal racetrack

I could “straight line” a particular uphill roundabout at around 100mph and the remapped pumas struggle to hit 85

the FFRR will sit on cruise control at that though
