Question 1

What do front end 2023 LAND ROVER DEFENDER models sell for?

Accepted Answer

Across 129 recorded sales of the 2023 LAND ROVER DEFENDER with front end damage, the median was $31,350, from $17,100 to $44,250. That is 1% below the $31,750 median for the model across every damage type, over the last 36 months. Estimates from past sales, not a valuation.

Question 2

Was $42,000 a good price for this 2023 LAND ROVER DEFENDER?

Accepted Answer

272 comparable 2023 LAND ROVER DEFENDER listings sold at auction for a median of $31,750, spanning $16,950 to $46,375. At $42,000 this one went 32% above that median. Auction prices reflect as-is condition, so the gap usually comes down to damage severity, mileage and whether the car runs.

Question 3

How much below its undamaged value did this LAND ROVER DEFENDER sell for?

Accepted Answer

The insurer put this 2023 LAND ROVER DEFENDER's pre-damage retail value at $87,714. It sold for $42,000 — 52% below that. A gap this size is normal for auction vehicles: the buyer takes on the repair cost, the paperwork and the risk that damage is worse than the photos show.

Question 4

How far is this LAND ROVER DEFENDER from an export port?

Accepted Answer

The lot sat at COPART in PA - WEST MIFFLIN. The nearest major vehicle export port is Newark, roughly 150 miles away. Moving a car that distance on an open carrier typically runs $200-$300, which is a real part of the landed cost and one reason identical cars fetch different bids depending on where they sit. Rates are indicative market figures rather than quotes, and rise with fuel prices and in winter.

Question 5

What does "RUN AND DRIVES" mean on this listing?

Accepted Answer

RUN AND DRIVES is the auction's own condition note for this 2023 LAND ROVER DEFENDER. It means the vehicle started and moved under its own power during a brief check at the yard. It is not a mechanical inspection and says nothing about how far it would drive. Anything beyond that has to come from the photos and a physical inspection.

Question 6

Is 12,170 miles high for a 2023 LAND ROVER DEFENDER?

Accepted Answer

Comparable 2023 LAND ROVER DEFENDER listings at auction averaged 31,848 miles across 272 sales, so at 12,170 miles this one sits 62% below that. At salvage auctions mileage moves the price far less than damage does — a low-mileage car with structural damage will still sell under a higher-mileage clean one.
