Thought they stopped making these.

Saw this at Yeovil LR yesterday. Evidently it's one of the final edition, the number plate is personal and the MW refers to Morris Works and the HUE bit is the reg of the first batch ever made. You would have to be a real LR nerd to spot that.

Maurice wilks 16 Huey

The heritage models are badged 1948 - 2015. But I suppose if it's a commercial version then it doesn't need to meet EU6 until September.

LR have built in excess of 2000 stock defenders of varying types which can be registered up until the end of 2017. This is to bridge the gap until the new Defender arrives in 2019.

But the current cars can't be registered after 31st December 2017. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come.........

Scotland 2014 Freelander 2 TD4_e Dynamic Manual Fuji White

Mav are you sure about this Whistle My brother enquired last week about a defender and there is no stock left of brand new machines according to the LR dealer he visited. The only guys who have a big stock pile ready to be delivered still at their depo is Twisted. He's been speaking to Alex regarding a T80 edition. The contract that Twisted signed with LR forbids them to sell any Land Rover's as a stock vehicle. They all have to be modified. MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior

I was talking to a Porsche dealer recently who said that sometimes Porsche produce limited edition cars like the 911 GT3 RS 4.0 – a model so limited in supply that just 30 cars were allocated to the UK and each dealership had one car and knows who will be invited to buy it. These cars then sell at a premium of say £40k on the second hand market. I wonder if LR is doing something similar with the last run of Defenders? 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto

A transporter full of Defenders was being unloaded when I was at Ripon Land Rover on Wednesday.
No doubt that will be Twisted stock then (as both are local to me). FL2 now gone and have a couple of items left for sale:-

Brodit active iPhone holder + Brodit dash clip,
Bluetooth Music Streaming Module.
