Thread: Replace a Defender with what?

Currently looking at getting one of the Ibex onto the SEVS list. That will then allow me an easier path to import into Australia.

Very impressive & fully custom for the customer & built to Euro 5.
The image is a render of the one I'm looking at, its 120inch. These use all Defender gear but customer can pick what ever engine & gearbox combination.

The new IBEX F8

Drop David a line, very easy guys to talk to.

Looks, on paper at least, as if it would do the job - but I suspect it will be very expensive, even more than a GWagon. And I doubt there is a local dealer!

There is no dealer, these are a private import vehicle.
As for price, I'm still waiting on a final turn key price but so far we have calculated drive away would be about the price of a bog standard extra cab ute 4x4, that includes importing cost.

The calculation is worked after I got a kit price from Ibex.

We are looking at the Cummins 2.8 crate engine mated to the 6 speed defender box. with wash out cab, the rear is all open like a wagon. Oh, it comes with a rear door on the passengers side only, to make it a little like an extra cab.

That's very interesting. Please keep us posted on your progress.

Pitty these are not available in Oz. Wouldn't have the suspension travel but would go the distance. Cheers

Latest is he is working out how he can operate with a ute! He did not think much of a personal import.
