Is 3 grand to expensive? Trying to buy it. But not sure of its value?

depends on condition a good unmolested worth a lot more ,have a look at chassis bulkhead etc,what engine has it got the more butchered/altered the less they are worth ,but its not expensive going by its face value

That pic could be hiding a lot. It could be a lightweight front end on something else entirely
Not a lightweight upper bulkhead, no vents. What engine is in it? I'd expect is not standard

the money is in thats its a reasonable looking good conditioned landy not so much as a lightweight,obviously it is a light weight but would cost to put it back to original condition

The pics of it on ebay clearly show it is a lightweight body on an old coiler chassis. Even dvla has it down as a Defender 90 registered in 1973?. The mot history shows the chassis has severe rot, mention of power steering mounts! It is a rusty bitsa that is best dismantled for spares. Do not buy.

in which case it isnt a light weight for one and isnt worth the money in any case

Welcome to the best Landy forum on the internet...but what they say, too ^^^
Hold onto your money for something perhaps over the horizon so off your radar just now.

So the ebay ad states location as Bolton.https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Land-Rov...rentrq:12c1d8dd1710a86197a2538effc9e215|iid:1
The pic you posted looks a bit like the West Coast of Scotland? Just curious

Perhaps more "****e-Weight" than Lightweight.
Be extremeley careful with this one...

photos are not great are they?
that rollcage / hoop is about as much use as a truckload of dead rats in a tampon factory as it seems to be lower than the top of the seats (& therefore the driver / passangers heads) and the main hoop looks like it is made from several parts not a single piece of pipe & bent to shape..
also looks a bit 'Long' is it on a 100" Disco / RR chassis?
