Hey, I'm new to the forums, I live in cumbria and at the moment I am on a Mechanical Design Apprenteship course.
I am planning on getting a landrover defender 90 next year, when I am 20 with 3 years driving experience as well as a more secure job at sellefeild ltd with £200+ pw income. (each year increasing around £100+ more a week)
I have long since been a fan of defenders ever since going in my uncles defender on the farm, I enjoy tri-roads with my friends landrover knock off suzuki's (jimny, swift and now a blitz) and greenlaning but would like my own 4x4 to do so, and to me there is no better car then an iconic defender. (although my friend dissagrees :lol:)
The car I'm looking for is a Landrover defender 90 sw with a 300tdi engine and bull bar, pre 1990's around £6500 over 3 year finance.
I dont know much on the different defender engines, whats the difference between a standard defender engine and the 200tdi and 300tdi?
are there any good Landrover insurers for young adults?
and when I have been looking at inurance, some class a defender 90 station wagon as a car and others a van, whats the difference between car and van insurance? and why is it sometimes considered a van?
I only want the defender for of roading and comuting, there is no buisness use, just a dream car.
Any other hints and advice would be helpfull
