Australia 2015 Defender 90 Puma 2.2 SW Fuji White
New 90 Owner From Australia!
Hiiii!

My name is Adam, and this is my brand new 90 Defender, bought it as i have always loved Defenders, but never had the chance to get one, when my misses found out they were going to stop, she nudged the thought a little and i went through and got one.

Fuji 90, has the Partial Leather seats, Sun hatch, two tone alloys, black side steps and body coloured guards. which for me was perfect, a nice blank slate for me to make my own.

I'm fairly new to 4x4ing and getting out and camping, but have wanted to for a while, so I'm excited to see as much of Australia as i can now.

Haven't got any plans atm, but i impulse bought a winch on sale, so ill be getting a winch bar made up, but thats as far as i have planed out for what i want, i kinda want everything, but who doesn't right Razz

Thanks all Smile

so after the weekend of owning this, which was getting me to and from work all weekend Im bloody loving it!

yes ok its not quick, but playing with the torque band is hilarious and so is tipping thing into corners.

need to go get it dirty when i can get some time with mates, as i have zero clue where to head off too by my self.

anyways, heres an Instagram picture Smile

Nice!

I bet that sunroof is certainly useful for karting around tall objects like the light pole you have! Laughing YOLO... You Only Live Once...

over easter weekend, i took part in the ARB Easter Event run by 4wdTV, just north of Broken Hill, which from home was just shy of 1000km away.

I managed to come 15th out of 61 entrants, which i was over the moon with, seen as it was my first ever off roading experience.

This is what you get for coming 15th.

Here are some pictures from the weekend, just putting the videos together from the events.
