Hi guys!!

I'm new to this forum but have frequented the defender 2 forum for many years.

I'm currently looking to buy my first for, looking for a 4.2 supercharged model, budget is £15k.

I have found one at the vogue centre, covered 80k miles, 56reg but 2007my.

Currently for sale at 14,995.

Just wondering others thoughts, is this a bit steep?

Many thanks

Chris

That’s steep ..
There’s is a premium for the 2007 model year (key in dash), but you’ll find better deals 4.4 AdBlu Tractor Stolen
4.2 SC - sold

It does seem steep tbh......

I paid 14.5k for an 07 plate with only 72k fmdsh last June.

Low-ish miles ones do seem to be getting fewer though.....

I figured this may be the general thought, it is listed as fmdsh, which is a bonus, 6 months warranty and 12 months breakdown.

I could haggle on the price a bit, there just doesn't seem to be many good lowish mileage examples about.

The Vogue Centre seem to have a lot of stock at the moment, I've been looking at 5.0's they've got there.

For your £15k budget, with a bit of haggling I'd imagine you'd get into a 5.0. There's a couple on AutoTrader that look ok that aren't much more then £15k.

The 2007MY is a good sweet spot but I'd not be parting with £15k for one these days, that just seems to much.

Seems an awful lot of money for a car of that vintage. Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue
Had- 2008 TDV8 Vogue SE in Java black
Had - 2007 S/C in Stornoway Grey

This one is a bit newer with a few more miles but has the newer interior, 5.0 engine and will have the later suspension with the adaptive dynamics etc. on it.

I believe it's being sold by a member on here too.

I only paid 15k for mine 4 years ago so that is really a strong price as others have said look at others also remember these vehicles dont like not being used a high miler well looked after would be my preference over a low miler and the main dealer service history means nothing in my opinion - at that age its all about how it feels

Thanks all for the advice, I think you've all confirmed my thoughts regarding price.

I had seen the 5.0 on auto trader, does anyone know the member on here?

Thanks

Anything to be worried about with the cam chain issue?

Lovely looking car.

The advert for that car says the chains have already been done I believe.

Correct but looking through old posts it seems he had a problem with the chains slipping a tooth and quite a lengthy repair.

I will messaged him shortly.

£15k for a 5.0?...we went to the Vogue Centre last Sat. Looked at four 5.0...9/10 reg..£26k+!!!

There's no way you'd get a 5.0 from the Vogue Centre for £15k, looking on AutoTrader and eBay, with a bit of haggling, you'd get into a 5.0 for £15k.

There's one on AutoTrader just now for £15,500 and another for circa £16k.

Depends what you want for your money I guess.
