Bonhams : The Defender 2,000,000 Sale - live (http://www.bonhams.com/auctions/23247/live/)


Well it sold, I know the money went to a very worthy cause, but just wondering if the Defender will ever get used as Land Rover intended. Or will it just be locked away in someone's private collection, never to be seen again?

It would be interesting to find out who bought it.

[It is understood the 2,000,000th Defender has gone to an overseas bidder.OK, which AULROian bought it? :D

Sold overseas, bet it went to the Saudi Bunker, never to be seen again.

Nearly 1 million AU$

[Landybitz]

It went overseas. Saudi I reckon never to be seen again.

[DiscoMick]

Wonder how soon before it pops up on ebay with an increased asking rice, say 500,000 pounds.

[jon3950]

Nor me. I wasn't prepared to go over $800k.

Read earlier on another site that the 2 million'th Defender has sold at
Bonhams Auction for a staggering 400,000.00 British Pounds :eek:

Rumour has it that the money is going to charity, I can think of lots of far superior vehicles for that amount of money :D

Id slowly but surely, one at a time, but on a constant rising tide of
extreme happiness,



corner the gunbuggy market.....

But none of them would ever be sold again.....

** mmmm cornering the gunbuggy market mmmm **
