Thread: Is this really worth $40k? (04 TD5 Extreme)

i bought a 2004 defender mine had a few dings in it and had 90000kms on the clock all i payed was 22000 and i thought that was abit much. Man u would have to be a dumb ass to pay that and there is no way a dealer would have offered 30k for it mine is insured for market value and thats 21k.

we paid lees than that for '03 with 5,000klms, on the clock, in 1907, yes not a mistake, smelt like a new vehhicle. Though was a CFA vehicle and WELL looked after, Fern Tree Gully CFA Was a top purchase

An early pre-production protoype?

Sure about that Mrs HH?
Sounds like a bargain

What insurance company insured it for $43 K I have to fight with my insurance company to insure mine for $25 K and it has more on it.

It all sounds like crap to me, $30k from a dealer and insured for $43k For that amount why even bother selling, just say it went walk about

Mine has all that, 70000kms, is 2006 and cost me 40% less than he is asking.

But...Defenders are pretty great...

With basic extras and only 70k.

On Gumtree.

More realistic.

The extras aren't really factored into any sale reflecting their true value.

Thanks

Not true.. mine has it and was built in the UK.. maybe it is because it's an Xtech??
