Barbara has phoned me up a couple of times and said she has bought a Defender!

Accessories? Well as long as they blend in with the black 110 it is

PS I suppose I am a little bit lucky

PPS Or Barbara's excuse? Well it was a recall from Land Rover, they realised they should have fitted it in the first place

2016 Defender 110 Puma 2.2 XS DCPU Fuji White

heres one for ya

3 women on a deserted island find a lamp, they all get one wish each, first one wishes she is 10x more intelligent than the average woman, wish granted she then builds a raft and floats away from the island. 2nd woman wishes she was 10x more intelligent than the first woman, wish granted she then builds a boat and floats off of the island. the 3rd woman then wishes she was 10x more intelligent than both of the last two woman put together, so the genie of the lamp turns her into a man

There are a few of us 'good' women about. Obviously those of you who moan about your wives obviously picked ones with defects. No offence, but there is something wrong with ANYONE (man or woman) who doesn't - a) want to own a Defender and b)doesn't want to accessorise said Defender.

My next accessories ? Front and Rear ARBs and extra range fuel tanks.

Pam, my wife's as bad as you, I have to try really, really, really hard to reign in her spending on the Landy

She now wants ARB camping chairs and still wants a snorkel. She got her own way with the winch, HID Lightforce and spots on the roof rack

If you've got the TD5 fuel filler I can recommend the Safari Equip long range tank, another mod she insisted we have

2012 Defender 130 Puma 2.2 HCPU Buckingham Blue

My excuse is safety

Bought a Trojan Back to keep (her) stuff safe;
Fitted a roll cage to keep her and the kids safe in the car.

Now thinking of a led light bar, to drive her safe trough the dark.

Other things fitted are for making the ride for her more relaxed.
(Blindo's with Goodrich AT's for a smoother ride and a roofrack to keep her beauty case).

Q.

Have had a look at the SE tanks but unfortunately they won't fit due to the roll cage chassis mount being in the way. Our blog - http://landytravels.com/

Pam, the fact that your roll cage mounts are in the way does not automatically mean you can not have a SE wing tank.

They will do one offs when their standard items will not fit. Ok price does go up but do not dismiss wing tanks just because your 90 is not standard.

If interested give me a shout and I will see what can be arranged or approach them direct.
