I feel like this is a reasonable price for a 3 year old SE.

 

It's essentially sticker price...which is kind of insane when you think about it. It makes sense in this supply chain constrained world but they can't possibly hold up like this forever.

 

Popped up almost $10k at the end. I was thinking $65k for a 3yr old SE sounded good. $74.5k sounds great!

 

Arguably the seller spent some serious cash in upgrades/mods - at least I saw some pics of invoices adding up to almost $10k. Also a sticker showing $90k? What's up with that? So, IMO not a great comparison to stock/oem cars. On the other hand, if you are selling/trading-in to a dealer, the value of all these mods go down the drain.

 

​​​​​I think BAT picked a really good one for their first regular Defender. It looks nice. It's really clean and it seems like it was maintained. I can see this one appealing to a lot of people where, if they would have picked that matte green wrapped Trek form Cars & Bids, it wouldn't have gone over as well. The peanut gallery on BAT would have ripped that one for being sketchy.

 

I guessed wrong, not a good guesser.

I think a dealer would have gotten another $10k though.

Yes. The results for this one will be a much better representation of the market for Defenders. Just a regular OEM car without any mods - at least none apparent.

 

And coils! Will be very interesting
