well if an importer tries to make a fool out of the buyer and customs by altering a nearly new Defender to "look" like a 25+ year old one then that seems fair to me

maybe he should have added a little more rust and rot

What a shame, that looks a nice 300tdi, I'd have had that rather than waste it as scrap!!

Since you cant buy them for love nor money in america making a mint one like a rare collectable car!!

That said...100K seems steep, but defenders do seem to hold their value, Mike
