Would seem to be better bet to just find a factory diesel in europe and have it shipped over or find one already here and get it.

My wife really wants a 110 Defender so I have been shopping around and came across this...

I really want a 110 Defender too, I have found several on e-bay but of course they are WAY out of my price range.

Only 1500 miles on that thing? Who crap Batman!!!
Who do I write the check out to? He might have to wait until the end of the month to cash her and a charity that I do alot of work with will have to take a hit, but man, totally worth it.

Land Rover is still selling the Defender just about everywhere except the US. Wish they would just get it over here already.
