The only New Defenders able to be purchased are those in stock with dealers as of now and those the dealers have ordered that have been allocated to them and are due to arrive from now till March 2016 at the latest. For these dealer orders, there are no more spec changes allowed, so the order as it is currently in the Landrover system is how the car will arrive. As you can imagine, the stock of new defenders is selling quickly - there are a few 90s left, not many 110s left and even fewer (if any) 130s. I would say get on the phone tomorrow and ring all dealers nationally until you find one.. Good luck with the purchase..

I would suggest you'll be out of luck with a 130,....unfortunately I'd say you've left your run a bit late,.....the best you'll do now, IMHO, is a good Low K used one, if you can find one.

I know where there may be 2 new ones left will send a pm now.
I thought it was too late as most coming into the country have been long odered but there are few gems tucked away still.

There is one parked outside Austral Land Rover in Brisbane, well there was a week ago when I dropped off my plates!

Today a friend of mine bought the last defender at any dealer in tasmania, a red 110 . He also owns possibly one of the very first in the state, a 1949 series 1 swb.
