Cheers Guys.
Green Machine, yes the tyres came with them. When they wear a bit more ill get a bigger size these are only 265 so smaller overall than the last set. They were second hand off Sam on here who very kindly brought them down to Essex for me Defender puma dormobile camper |

Very nice, I like the wheels & their colour.
Where's that Defender Badge above the grille,...weren't you going to fit one? Cheers, Pickles. |

I did like the other set but you made the right decision changing them. It really suits those rims

Look great, I knew you'd get them on soon, but not this fast!
Your poor sprayer I still think they're the nicest wheel you can get for a Defender - glad they've gone to a good home |

Not much has happened really, mainly just been using and enjoying it which is what its all about isnt it, even ticked over to 10,000 miles Exmoor are kindly sorting a hood and fitted my cut down snow vent and aircon front pannel from stanstorey (Thanks again Sam) which I had painted (luckily it just cleared the numberplate) Click image to enlarge Defender puma dormobile camper Last edited by SailingTom on 28th May 2014 5:05pm.

Cheers he sure does, pm'd you. Your soft top will look great Full Fat keep the pics coming
Still not a lot, had some updates from exmoor and replacement hoods on its way. Got some stainless sills made up which have cleaned up the look a bit more inside. Been in a courtesy freelander for a bit as got recalled for the seatbelts and going back again as the fixed leaky rear diff has got worse from being done. Its been getting a lot of good comments lately out and about which is always nice. Still plenty more on the wish list as ever though!

Well can you spot the difference? (hint nice straight hood line)
Click image to enlarge Replacement hood from exmoor arrived and is a much better fit, without the issues (the backs not done yet in the pic). To me its fantastic service as all companies make the odd mistake, the way they have dealt with it has been great, so a big thanks and 10/ 10 to them Not many other plans really now other than the interior and front bumper (due to a little incident )plus tyres. Im also thinking about a wheel carrier when I can source a wheel and maybe a side stripe down the bottom of the door level in limestone if i dont do the split doors. (thats a fair few plans actually...Gulp!) Defender puma dormobile camper |
