Surprised (not really!) the seller didn't trade it in for the scrappage scam!


Thanks Roy, Sorry I missed your post. The guy had bought a brand spanking Landy defender about a week before the scheme was announced!

He also had a Bond Equipe, and a very nice Mini.....

Well done that man. Same colour as mine and half the price (half the size too :lol: ).
You took your time finding a replacement - hope it pays off. :D
