I've seen that Silverline are selling Cooper Zeon LTZ in Defender sizes.

Anyone got any experience or views?

Simon, I modified a new bolt which is a bit longer for the negative terminal.

Just grind 2 of the sides off the head and bobs your uncle, trim the length to suit.

I've just spent two days washing and scrubbing mine... Embarassed Although mine might be Java Black... No one seems to know... says Java black on the order form and what not, but a few people have said its Santorini.... Rolling Eyes Whats the difference?

The diference is that Santorini has green glittery bits in it whereas the Java doesn't. (At least that's what the dealer told me, I've never seen mine next to a Java black one to contrast them). The green glittery bits weren't my reason for choosing the car... Rolling Eyes Peter
