This one is a weird one. It's a right-hand-drive, U.K.-spec 1990 Land Rover Defender 110 County Estate -- and the seller wants $90K.

You can get a nice, modern Defender for less.

Then again, this is a rare bird. It's got a diesel engine, a five-speed manual transmission, and 144,000 kilometers on the clock.

The engine has been rebuilt and much of the other mechanicals have been replaced/kept up to date. So, too, have many convenience features. There is a premium audio system and a CB radio.

The list of replacements/upgrades is long and you can click here to check it out.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

90K is smoking crack, and right hand drive is no fun at all.

  I take that comment personally. You don't even know me!

$90k for a 33-year-old vehicle, and the seller posts a measly 7 photos, including zero of the underside, or closeups of any kind?

Hubris.

Bd2 Please highlight the styling differences.
ToolGuy @Matt, not every post needs to solve *ALL* the world's problems.As a staunch consumer advocate, you might be more effective by focusing on one issue at a time and offering some concrete steps for your readers to take.When you veer off into all directions you lose focus and attention.(Free advice, worth what you paid for it, maybe even more.)
FreedMike What this article shows is that there are insufficient legal protections against unreasonable search and seizure. That’s not news. But what are automakers supposed to do when presented with a warrant or subpoena – tell the court to stuff it in the name of consumer privacy? If the cops come to an automaker and say, “this kid was abducted by a perv who’s a six time loser on the sex offender list and we need the location of the abductor’s car,” do they say “sorry, Officer, the perv’s privacy rights have to be protected”?This is a different problem than selling your data.
Bd2 Excellent, Toyota has been caught with bad news again. Rejoice!
