What did you get your Defender for Christmas?
Apols in advance to the Grinchs and Scrooges amongst us (and I often assume both personas myself on many occasions)
So this is the 1st vehicle I've got a Christmas pressie for so wondered if it was a common symptom of defender ownership.
My own Defender is getting a synthetic winch rope and alloy hawse to replace the wire and roller item currently fitted. I've also treated it to a snow cowl Sheep though I suspect my purchase may mean its a snow free winter. 2023 110 P400e

1. Some extended arches for the TD5 to go with the spacers already installed.
2. Some Wipac Crystals
3. Some funding contributions from family that I'll think about what to spend on. Probably given I live in pitch black countryside, I'll go for a light bar on the roof and an LED bar of some sort.

Already got the snow cowl and the RDX LEDs front and back. I'm going to focus on the outside first, then get stuck into the inside with some forward facing seats in the back, some sports seats in the front and a smaller steering wheel. That'll keep me in Christmas lists for a couple of years.

New drivers door latch as the plastic bush on the original one has snapped off.
Just waiting to see when it will get the socket set out and fit it to it's self, I'm a bit fed up of buy it things and it expects me to fit them. Don't make old people mad.
We don't like being old in the first place,
so it doesn't take much to Censored us off.

Full set of Melvill and Moon seat covers and the spare wheel cover, parrot Bluetooth kit, auxiliary fuel tank - bought some weeks back but that will have to count.

I'm happy to hear that others also suffer from this particular affliction because that's how I justified it all to myself (and to my wife). '13 Defender 90
