Is it just me or have Defender prices plummeted over the last year? Were they just artificially high due to the whole end-of-production thing? I guess many people bought them without realising what they were really buying (i.e. something which drives like a 70yo car, because it is essentially a 70yo car). Anyway, it's nice to see them back to a 'sensible' price again. I kind of feel sorry for all the people who bought into the whole tarted-up stick on ste fad. There was some silly money being spent though. Still, I'm surprised to see just how many good examples are for sale at the sub-7k mark right now. One particular 90 I have my eye on was up for sale for 12k in Jan and now just over 4k.

The newer end of the market is (justifiably) doing fine. It seems though that the manky older 100k+ examples that were dragged up by the hype, have now settled back down to where they belong.
