Title: 85 Land Rover Defender 90 - are these really such high dollar units ?
Post by: Baron VonZeppelin on March 08, 2012, 12:57:54 am: This caught me off guard. Never seen one.
Pretty cool vehicle.

Are these the kind of vehicles that folks are talking about when they mention "Rover" Injection Pumps - for M-TDI swaps ?

And are these damm things really worth that kind of money ?

When there isn't another one on the market, it's worth whatever you want to charge if you have a buyer. There area lot of small 4x4s you could get for 11 grand that aren't as good-depending what you want it for.
