To be honest other than the tyres and the tax re-classification I couldn't tell you.

I did hear somewhere that they may have changed to a few cheaper manufacturers for some parts but couldn't tell you what.

My dealer was talking about tax-reclassification to me - so are they all £200 now or something like that? Does that include the Ute (wondering if it's different what with it being commercial vehicle etc.) Simon

Rus,

Somewhere on this forum you were talking with someone about the Southdown axle guards (the wide things that go across the whole underside and also act as a diff' guard).


I see your point this could be a potential issue, I'll have to look into it further.


Going back a tad..

I have a South down front axle guard , been on the last 5 Defenders, and not been a problem California F1, 75th 110 "Kermit", 50th Ann V8, 90 V8 Hybrid, 55 Series 1

Boxing day was spent striping put the headlining to run a new ariel cable for a new mount the the CB santa brought me


Click image to enlarge
I went for dynamat superlite for weight saving, one bulk pack (which is cheaper than the dynamat extreme and you get 48sq.ft rather than the 36.sq.ft) was enought to cover the roof, the rear panels where the quater lights normally are in a CSW and half of one of the sides panels with so offcuts to spare Thumbs Up

Finally back together and the roof console santa got me coutesy of Brendan at 4x4 Overlander (over £100 cheaper than D44 Mr. Green )

And I now have some LED interior lights and separat lights for the middle seats and map lights for the front row Thumbs Up

all in all a very sucessful day, just need to power it all up thismoring Russell

Well all wired up and I have now tested the LED interior lights on the roof console in the dark. You need your Cool it's like Blackpool illuminations in the defender and the map lights althought bright are deflected enought not to detract the driver Thumbs Up Russell

I know what you mean, yesterday I picked up a cole more sheets of super lite to finish the USW sides and then a bulk pack of extreme to start the floor and doors.
I'll probably need 1 more if not 2 to finish covering the 110 Embarassed Russell
