As most people know buying one of these iconic vehicles direct from the UK is the most cost effective ways of owning on, because once they reach the US the prices just sky rocket . All Defenders have to be at least 25+ years old and in original condition to gain entry legally to the U, These vehicles are treated as classic cars .
It is very rare to find a 25+ year old land rover ( or most vehicles come to that ) that are in totally original conditio, With the vehicles we sell to the US they have all been through our workshops fully inspected and lightly restored were neede, structurally / mechanically and cosmetically . We never offer for sale to the US any vehicle that has been fitted with none original Galvanized chassis / modern later engine types / any incorrect none age related parts of any description .
We at P J Fabrications do not inflate our prices for the US market and we sell all our vehicles at a fair and realistic market price for the condition they are presented .
This vehicle is at our workshops and can be inspected at any time by the buyer or their agents. ALL paperwork is present and correc, all numbers match and this comes with a folder full of history .
I personally have been a fan of these iconic vehicles and the land rover brand for over 50 years, our staff are all enthusiasts and very proud of their workmanship .
Land Rover defenders and series Land Rover vehicles are very much utilitarian vehicles and driving one is like stepping back in time 50 years or s, this is not to everyones taste but once you get used to their quirky ways they become very addictive and enjoyabl, useful very capable driving vehicle, they put the fun back in to driving . They don't have the reputation of being the BEST 4X4 BY FAR for nothing .
If you are looking for all the mod cons and the luxury of say a new BMW or MERCEDES these are not the vehicle for you .
We offer friendly knowledgable advice and information for any pre or after sales inquiry .
Thank you for your interest .
