That's reassuring. Thanks. Many Years ago I had an Opel Manta GTE special edition from new, last year of manufacture, which was stolen and burnt out. I loved that car. Sickening feeling. John

Thanks for all the advice. Just an up-date. I have revised my agreed value through Heritage (Norton insurance) subject to providing recent photos - looking at an agreed value of £12,000 which would increase my premium by £15 a year which I think is money well spent. If I have any problems or...

I bought a refurbished galv chassis from Ashtree several years ago as part of a re-build. It was delivered when they said they would and I was happy, but customer service is everything. I've used a local garage for my Land Rovers for years with no complaints, but a senior bloke left and the...

I know Col, I spent near enough that amount when I had my Defender restored some years ago. Never expect to get back what you paid out. Having said that if the Series III is worth near what some people think, I would probably make back most of what I've spent on it, not that I would sell it. John

Thank you. I'm a Land Rover man Alan always will be, still will have the Series 3. Believe me I have a heavy heart at the Defender going. Some of us with a bit of personality don't want to be just part of the crowd. ;) John

Yes sorry about that. It really wasn't my intention to try and sell it here. I do have interest from a few people already and a local garage which has done all my maintenance work have said they could sell it for me in a couple of days if I want them to. I'm just completely out of touch with how...

Wow! thanks for that. I was surprised at some of the prices being asked and thought it might be unrealistic. Documentation and photos no problem. I'm paying about the same for my Insurance at the moment on limited mileage. Would feel a bit sick if something happened and I only got a fraction of...

OK thanks. Will have a look through the classifieds, just seems to be a big variation in what people are asking. I won't have a problem selling it some people seem to like yellow.;) John

Oh sorry about that, was genuinely looking for guidance. Will have to look elsewhere. John

Yes the Snorkel was on it when I bought it quite a few years ago now. I don't off-road other than driving across a field now and then but in these parts we can have some pretty bad snow in the Winter and if anything can get you home a Defender will :) . As I'm retired I don't have to worry about...

Thank you. I've thought about it long and hard, ;) Coming up to OAP status, knee hip and back not good for climbing up and down and need something warmer in the Winter. For me it's either a choice of spending quite a bit on a second cosmetic re-furb (replace some doors, panels and respray) or...

Looking for some advice please. My insurance with Heritage is due for renewal currently agreed value £3,600 (agreed a few years ago now). I was told by a local garage that the value of Series III's has gone up quite a bit and I was surprised by some of the prices being asked on Autotrader...

Hello I'm John from South Wales. Have been a Series III and defender 90 owner for a long time, both substantially professionally refurbished. Unfortunately the defender is going to have to go due to arthritis in knee and hip and the need for a bit more comfort in my old age. Will be looking for...
