Model-year comparison
Market analysis
Asking prices for a used Land Rover Defender radiator are unusually spread out: the top listing asks more than ten times what the cheapest does, so which unit you pick matters more than the median.
Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, radiator support mounted, 5.0L, lists at a $75 median, while radiator support mounted, 2.0L commands $1,882, a 2409% gap inside the same part category. Confirm which variant your VIN requires before comparing quotes.
Model year matters too: 2023 units carry the lowest median at $140, while 2020 tops the table at $436. Parts from 2013–2023 are interchangeable, so if the 2023 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 11 compatible years.
Against comparable vehicles, the Land Rover Defender sits 23% above the Mercedes GLE Class ($300), 85% above the Mercedes S Class ($200), and 138% above the Ford Explorer ($155) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.
