Nice! I must say that white Defenders have really grown on me. I'm thinking about replacing Big Black for a 110 in a years time... No idea what I'd call it... Bigger Black maybe?? Just out of interest what will LR do with your old 90? I'm assuming that because of the fuss they kicked up regarding the remap they won't be able to sell it as an approved used car? Or will they just sell it cheaper with no warranty? Admin note: this post has had its images recovered from a money grabbing photo hosting site and reinstated |

They're planning on selling it, after the last breakdown they put on the original engine map and replaced the intercooler and pipes back to stock. As soon as they sell out the my12 stock they'll put my 90 up for sale. When I bought it as a 2011 model, it was the last in stock, they brought in a couple of 2009 models and sold them for the same price. As for white I never was interested in the colour but as I've seen a couple of nice ones on the web it gave me inspiration to customize the look to my liking. Now just need to find out how to stencil a defender logo 2012 Fuji White 110 Flattened |

Actually I'll get stickers made up and paint over them so the writing stays in white what font do you guys think will make a good "DEFENDER" decal? 2012 Fuji White 110 Flattened |

BIG - the two examples I have seen have DEFENDER starting at the bottom rear going up towards the front,, diagonally. Pics have been on the forum (maybe on the spotted thread but a long time ago!) It's easier with a Utility of course but you can put stickers on the window part made by a sign writer. You can also order the lettering from the Internet. Many boat owners order their boat name lettering over the net

Actually wanted to make a decal at any local sign shop to go at the base of the bonnet bulge then paint the bulge and remove the decals to leave the writing in the original body color. Didn't know what style of font to use [/img] 2012 Fuji White 110 Flattened |

Great SEB, especially for the boy I nearly bought one last year at the Cow Pie show (had 2 for sale £1800!) but we have no land to ride it
That's got to be the best fun a boy can have, the kids round us used to drive them at 8 years old, couldn't reach the pedals just stood up to use pedals then hopped on the seat No H&S in those days |

Nah, to brassy for me Chris. Will do them silver once they start to show signs of corroding. Though I do like Burnt orange coloured callipers Click image to enlarge Admin note: this post has had its images recovered from a money grabbing photo hosting site and reinstated |

Finished a weekend's work of taking the 2" suspension lift component off the car and fitting HD springs and standard shocks so that it isn't as stupidly scary to drive. 2016 D4 HSE

RRUK any pix? be interetsing for me to see how your truck now sits and rides on HD springs, mine looks a bit loaded when I'm hitched up so I guess I have standard springs - just wondered thats all
