Haven’t even sat in one yet. To be honest I enquired about the new storage tray for the 24MY 90, salesman said just buy a new 90 ![]() Haven’t had a P300 though! 24MY 90 D250 HSE, Tasman Blue |

Helped deliver the destination defender event at Peckforton Castle in July.
It is a convoy drive using a variety of models with instructors communicating to drivers via radio. Feedback from our event was very good, with the added bonus of excellent catering. Guest should have lots of time to talk defender with instructors and have a pock around different models, 110 & 90. Enjoy your day. |

Haven’t heard a peep about this from Pentland Stirling…………… maybe because I’ve only bought 2 Defenders from them in the last 3 years and that’s not enough to qualify for an invite!

I think it’s marketing Tim, I asked my salesman what it’s about and he hadn’t heard of it. My 90 is 5 months old they must think it’s time to change

Well had a great day today, an hour off road and a nice lunch afterwards, absolutely cooking in Dunkeld today.
Today’s ride, coil sprung 90. Cars were started ready for us 5mins before heading off so they weren’t cooking inside. Everybody walked past it so it must have been fate. It handled all the obstacles as well as the air sprung models, even some of the monster ruts on one of the hill climbs. An amazing little vehicle, with no fancy off road packs only the E-Diff it held it’s own against the vehicles that did. ![]() Click image to enlarge Lunch was almost as good as the 90 ![]() Click image to enlarge 24MY 90 D250 HSE, Tasman Blue |

Always like the more pure looking vehicles. Coil sprung... but still no manual real shame that.
