I wonder if they are buying back 2nd hand defenders or kept a stock of new unsold models.

I haven't read all the spiel but you may well be right. This delightful heap of rust yours for 50k - I don't think so.. Interestingly some are overseas one I noted was rebuilt in Germany so maybe they are brokering as well ?.

But…they say that it has got “an exceptional level of patina”…does that mean rustier than most? ⚓️

I believe I read that they were performing buy backs
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

That makes sense, stratospheric prices on some of their kit …

I followed the link and scrolled as far as the picture showing the white leather upholstery. Are they having a laugh? I'd rather have a new Defender 110.

Oh yes it's a very niche Chelsea market I think they are after not country oiks, other than the Hunters and Shooters, my local friends will be staying with the Jap jobbies for their cost and total reliability.
I really like Ewan's jobby the design is nice and chunky.
