Just wondering, do the cars get cleaned up before the auction? There never seem to be any smears on the interior.

My guess is it was someone who could no longer afford the repayments

Also how could a 110 have a high speed impact? He must have had a 100km run up.

The what ?

Nah, it would take more than that to activate the airbag in a Defender .

I have a picture of my MIL getting out of my 110. Not game enough to post it though

I thought the new ones had an airbag........or is that the driver is a windbag......I can get mixed up sometimes lol

They have an airbag, on the driver's side only.

Are you bieng tongue in cheek?

Defenders don't have air bags. Not even the new ones.

And yet the one I was looking at buying had one, on the steering wheel. I prefer to trust what my eyes see and what my fingers touch.

There was place for one on the passenger side, that was due for 2011. But then that was before LR was bought by Tata.

really thats intersting coz they dont have them on the uk ones either!!

maybe defenders are going for the captive market after all ....

by the way the lump in the steering wheel is just a big **** ugly lump nothing behind it unless of course someone put a disco steering wheel on it, then of course there is still no airbag as there is no sensors for it......

your talking to one person that has owed a new defender and one that still does.

not calling you a liar but you appear to be the only person to have seen one............possibly in the world

does it say srs in the steering wheel? and what about the airbag warning signs were they on the sun visors?

No, no, no... you are mistaken. The Defender steering wheel boss may look like it has an air bag, but trust me, it's just a big blob of solid foam. Has been and always will. No way of engineering airbags into the current shape model if Land Rover can be believed.

The steering wheel has had a bulbous centre for a few years but that's as close to an airbag that the Defender gets to.
