Anyone got a defender tipper for sale?

[pants0512]

Hi All,

Its in the title really. We are in the market for another defender tipper. 2007 onwards. Less than 100k miles. I am looking in the usual places but most advertised are already sold.

let me know if you have something of interest.

Less than 100k is getting harder and harder to find I reckon. @benedmonds was selling one but think it's done more miles.

[benedmonds]

Ours is a 2000 and done 110k. But it is a genuine vehicle that will probably still be on the road in another 20 years...  Exportable to the US in a year or 2 so we might just park it up..

To be honest from the adverts I saw I thought it would be worth a lot, but we have not had much interest. Had I known I probably would have not bothered spending so much fixing the chassis and bulkhead.

 

Feedback from some has been we need to spend even more to make it look smart, but I am not sure I want to put more money into it in the hope of making a return. I am not a used car dealer... It has basically be sat for the last 2 years hardly doing anything. 

 

If someone wants it I will sell but I might just hang on to it and see if the US exportable market is a thing.. It needs the original chassis and engine which it has, but I think to be actually valuable it needs to be the crewcab tomb raider look..

If you put a (realistic) price up I'm sure it will sell but guessing games get folk no where

As soon as you start welding chassis and bulkheads to keep them on the road you are on a downward spiral - it’s time to chuck proper money at the job or get rid IMO.

I see that at £6k, with or without vat. That’s an offer if you are interested, but I doubt you’ll see this as I think you have blocked me because I was dismissive towards Lycra-loving-road-hogging-self-important-peddle-pushers once upon a time and you get all offended.
(And you obviously think your old Landy is worth a gazillion dollars as does every other Defender-owning masochist on the planet, as they are always advertised at exorbitant prices but bizarrely rarely seem to sell).

Read my last sentence, I might be a long way off asking price but reckon I’m a lot closer to actual value!
