United Kingdom 2010 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 USW Santorini Black
Santorini Black 110 USW
Hi all, after spending the past couple of years building what I thought was my dream Defender (90 300tdi CSW), the opportunity came along to buy a 2010 Puma 110 USW.
I have known the 110 from a year old as it was owned by the company I worked for. It was a managers company car but I used it for towing jobs etc.
So the 110 was bought and the 90 sold! On the whole the 110 is in good condition but need some love and personalising for my tastes / use.
I’ll hopefully document the jobs on here. If anyone has any tips or suggestions for useful upgrades etc please let me know 👍🏻
Thanks
Sam

So the modifications have started.. firstly I’ve fitted a Drawer / Dog box system from Animal Transit Boxes in the rear.

I’ve also started cleaning up the chassis and applying dinitrol to the rear wheel arches.
Once I order some more I’ll do the rest of the chassis.
Whilst I was cleaning things up I decided to order and fit a Gwyn Lewis kit to the rear arches.

Luckily the chassis although rusty in certain places on the surface is actually very good. I think I’ve got there just in time.
The 110 has been booked into a local spray shop to have some bits of corrosion sorted on the windscreen frame, as well as a few other areas.

This week I’ll also order a full set of door seals and rear door threshold.
The NAS step is coming off for blasting and powder coating.
Lots to do, but it should be good once I’m done 😀 Sam

Thanks 👍🏻, i must admit I thought the 90 was going to stay forever but when this came along it makes much more sense for a family with 2 kids and 2 dogs.
I can’t wait to get it how I want it and on the road! Sam
