I'm pretty sure that's what they're saying.

$390K for a secondhand Defender !

They must feel that there's a market for them I guess.

They have a few other classics for sale Jaguar Land Rover Classic Car Dealer | Works Legends

one of the large LR tuners in the UK bought 100 defenders new off the production line in 2016(ish) and put them in storage. There was an article in LRO mag with a pic of a massive shed of new defenders lined up inside. They are converting to whatever is the customer spec, mostly LS conversions. I think they have converted around 40 since end of production. In 2016 100 new defenders would have been a big purse. In 2022, the cost to buy those same defenders would buy you a castle and maintain it for a generation.
