Our Verdict

Caution advised regarding structural integrity. While the TD5 engine is a robust choice, this vehicle shows persistent signs of chassis corrosion and mounting issues that require professional attention to prevent future MOT failures.

The primary focus for this purchase is a thorough chassis inspection. The MOT history repeatedly flags corrosion on the offside and nearside body mounting points. You must have a specialist perform a deep-clean inspection to determine if this is merely surface-level or structural rot, as this is the most expensive repair on a Defender.

Check the TD5 engine for common issues such as injector leaks and turbo health. Given the 150k+ mileage, ensure there is a documented history of timing belt changes and differential oil swaps. Look specifically for signs of wear on the anti-roll bars and brake lines, as these have been flagged as failure or advisory points in the past.
