Many thanks Thumbs Up
I'll have to wait till I get back in the country to finish my run home to see what I get out of my tank - normaly get about 400 miles beween filling to the brim and the light on [ping] when driving normally .... so am intrested on what you get out of your 90 Wink
I know the 110 has a roofrack, Mantac raised air intake and a heap of dormobile fitting - being lugged arround all the time so that will add some weight, power restriction and wind resistance to the event - but they are always fitted to the wagon so any change will show up as true comparable result! Cool

Thumbs Up
I've Just got to wait for getting home in a couple of weeks to see how the MPH goes - expect the first results to be a bit out of the norm as I've just fitted the remap.
The speeds up to london were a bit irratic due to the new found power and sitting on the motorway for 200 odd miles trying to get used to the throttle position for my normal speed ...
Ended up touching 70 a few times which is unusual for me, that, along with all the streamlined aerodynamics of the Brownchurch roofrack on top, will not help the MPG...! Shocked Poppy - TDCI (Puma) 110XS 2.2 - Camper conversion - see the build here - https://www.defender2.net/forum/topic56530.html

it now does 70 at about 2100/2200; before it was 2500ish so less revs = quieter and less fuel which will be great when going to and from S France. Thumbs Up BM52

BP - Just out of interest where did you mount your fuse boxes? In the battery compartment?

Ah, I had not realised that the 4 speed auto box is higher geared in top than the 6 speeder, There's food for thought

I have just fitted a pair of Mantec rear stowage cages in the back of my 90 in place of the 4 inward facing seats that I never used. Now I have some really handy storage to stopp the shopping rolling around the back and for bigger trips much better organisation for camping kit etc.

Thumbs Up

Colour match is perfect and they do make a big difference, well done Thumbs Up

I reckon the windscreen blocks would have been corroding in a few months, bulkhead side had no paint on at all Shocked

Had the radio and centre dash out to do a few little jobs as well Whistle

May get some more done on Sunday if I get the gardening done early, think I used up all my brownie points today so garden comes first for a while Laughing

Steve, I fitted the Croytec ones again but this time before the old ones rotted. I can replace the originals if a ever sell it.

Gum, mods are being done slowly but surely this time Thumbs Up

SWHMBO loves the mirror covers and said they really make a big difference, must mean I can spend some more money Laughing

Black CP is waiting to go on and a D44 side vent cover is on its way, the LR plastic one is now only held on with one plastic pin Shocked

Did try and obtain some Santorini wheel arches last week from DefenderStu's Xtech but he would never move away from his 90, can't understand why Rolling with laughter
