It almost certainly has Defender axles. Take a few spare half-shafts with you.

I came here to post exactly this. Well done. You rock.

Not everything can be fixed with a hammer. I also have duck tape and a tube of epoxy.

The next step is this:

Other wise people have answered, but there's another factor: Multidrop has lower densities.

Commodities like this are fungible, mines can and do respond to demand, and Russian exporters - of all countries - wouldn't be able to resist the temptation of extra foreign-currency revenue if prices went up.

In the UK, at least, Defenders still have a cult following - so it's practically impossible to get one that's both good and cheap.

We need to go smaller!

It's certainly a niche, but to be fair, I wrote to Volvo saying "If you produce the Concept Estate, or something like it, then I'll buy it" and I'm still willing to put my money where my mouth is.

As well as causing crashes, slamming on the brakes is a great way to attract attention to yourself.

As well as the length requirements, there are different rules on axle loading (including geometry &c).

That would look so cool with a winch.

Sadly, North America hasn't entirely fallen in line with global standards, but I assume a "2 inch ball" is a half-hearted attempt at complying with ISO 1103:2007. ;-)

Manufacturers shouldn't have to test every possible combination of third-party devices. This is why we have standards. Bluetooth is an interoperability standard.

Update: It sold for £67,500.

Many carmakers have had an aviation connection. Some have even boasted about the aviation connection to make their car brand look modern and fast.

Why? There are lots of very capable MALE UAV designs on the market already. Including many that were designed from scratch to fit modern UAV requirements, rather than reusing a 35-year-old crewed aircraft. Including many with low unit costs and low hourly costs.

As long as the C-class has existed, each iteration has borrowed styling cues from the contemporary S-class.

If you're going down the depreciation path: You can get a C32 AMG very cheaply. It's a Tavarish-style performance bargain. However, it's a W203, which is a love/hate thing...
