2011 Defender110 Desert Storm Edition in Hong Kong
Hi all, before sharing my defender, i would like to share a so-called special edition "Desert Storm" in Hong Kong back in 2011. There is 10 (as far as I heard) of those to be made. The only special is the colour which is matt desert brown. The dealer said it's the original Land Rover colour for military service. You can order the paint from LR through the dealer.

Extra info: In Hong Kong, all the defenders from 2007 have to be categorised as "light goods vehicle (LGV)" and the main features of LGV are (1) it has to be with cargo barrier. (2) Side cargo compartment could not have windows. If there are windows, they have to be blocked inside. That's why all the defenders in Hong Kong are with cargo barrier. There are the LGV regulations.

Let's have a look of the photos. Enjoy~

Very nice Exclamation Is it the 2.4 or already the 2.2 Question
I noticed that both front and rear mudflaps have a metallic reinforcement frame. Never seen that before. Is that standard from LR Hong Kong, or is that a LR option, 3rd party option or a own invention
Why do you need those?
Speaking of mudflaps, one recommendation here. Strongly suggest you order a pair of the stainless steel reinforcement brackets from Entreq in Germany. It is a very small inexpensive item, so even posting it to Hong Kong will not be too problematic. Without those, after a while your side panels will get damaged, and those brackets that are installed in your pictures will not prevent that.
Here is the weblink: http://www.entreq.de/products/reinforcemen...r-110.html
Again, it is a nice Defender there in your pictures Thumbs Up You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation.

ericvv, it's a 2.4! I heard from the dealer that the mudflaps are one of the LGV regulations. I think they have to be with the metallic reinforcement frames too. Mine got smaller frames and are in black.

Thanks for the recommendation! Since I am not with my car, I am not sure how the brackets can prevent the damage of the panel... Should I got the for front mudflaps as well? thanks!

No, rear mudflaps only. It is really a must to install these from new. One more thing, if you will install them from new, you can even only use the existing center hole to fasten them. No real need then to drill the two other holes at each end, as with an unbended side panel, you will have a perfect fit and the reinforcement will work perfectly too.

Best looking new Defender I've seen.
Like it so much I'd consider painting my White Td5 with the same paint.
but white roof & wheels

(I could never paint the roof black with our outback 45c+ (in the shade) summer temps. but I can understand you doing it in the Northern Hemisphere)

I think its looks very cool, hope you dont mind, I just did a qick respray on your roof and wheels to see how she looks.

on second thoughts, the brown wheels look better, but I'll keep the white roof

Nope, I hate it too (and I'm not just saying that to keep on your good side).
But beauty is in the eye of the beholder - as every Defender owner knows Thumbs Up Tell someone you love them today because life is short.
But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing...

I would guess that's a local market sourced and fitted barrier, it looks a different design to the uk market accessory one
