Here is the shameful things about this:
1) Why hasn't a lawsuit ever been brought against Land Rover for these incidents? How many Defenders have met with this exact fate for this exact cause?
2) That said, why would anyone be allowed to own one without immediately dealing with these oil lines? Why would you knowingly drive a time bomb?
I have seen a salvage NAS 110 title (title only) command $20K, so the price isn't stupid, however this particular seller has some (ehem) known history in the LR communities. Buyer do your homework ...
