Great video Sam. You may want to rethink the khaki interior as although it looks lovely, it does attract the dirt. I drove a 110 last summer when they first came out and the drivers seat had got really grubby on that demo after a very short space of time. Also, used car prices are at an all time high and especially defenders since the new bond film came out. The list price on a v8 110 starts at £103k so they are commanding a huge premium due to the shortage of new cars. Not a great time to buy unfortunately. All the best with the searching!
