1989 LAND ROVER DEFENDER M57 SWAP

Location: East Midlands - Kimberley
Swap Value: £10.000+
Model: Land Rover Defender     Year: 1989     Mileage: 10 miles
Private Individual

Description:

It’s a 1989 defender so will be tax and  MOT exempt in a couple of years.  
It has a BMW M57 engine conversion which is worth googling about if youre unfamiliar, a six speed BMW gearbox fitted done with adaptor kit to transfer box so it retains high/low ratio and the diff lock. Transfer box fitted was a recon when conversion was completed so not got many miles on it. The M57 is an e46(184)  from a 330d and im told had about a hundred thousand on it when fitted. 
House of torque ECU and loom,
Ally rad,
Glen Lewis extreme props,
Glen Lewis ball joints,
2 inch lift springs with 4 inch lift spacers,
Adrenaline 6 degree radius arms and trailing arms,
Pro comp suspension 
Diesel heater fitted instead of the crappy landrover heater. 
Deep dish rims on 33 inch Comforser tyres,
Raptor painted in satin black,
Isolator and alarm fitted, 
Bulkhead is good, chassis is solid but has patches welded in the past (see pics) doors are fine (back ones a bit rusty under the bottom). 
Brand new bits, clutch (not done 50 miles),battery, rear wheel cylinders, callipers, disks, pads, master cylinder, brake servo, rear shoes, rear wheel bearings, axle oil seals, four point harness belts probably other stuff that im forgetting. 
As I was building it into an overland camper, ive insulated it all and fitted a split charge relay system and a leisure battery with a 12v light system that runs off that battery in the back. 
Obviously it’s a bit rough and ready appearance wise, scratches and dents etc, its not a show pony.

I want to swap for

Subaru
Motor home etc

Swap value is 10k, it cost that just for the conversion

I am open to ALL SWAPZ
