sound of a TD5
Beautiful day, collected some hay and later went to local garden centre; sunglasses on flaps open and the sound of the TD5 eagerly taking me on my journey...nothing like it Thumbs Up

This may sound strange ..... But I find the Td5 tickover very calming and reassuring Smile

There were several reasons I choose the TD5:
1, Nice engine Very Happy
2, Having flaps that opened Very Happy
3, Couldn't afford a new defender but also didn't want to pay the tax man £500 per year road tax by choosing the 2.4 Evil or Very Mad
happy days!!

You need only two tools in life: WD-40 and duct tape.
If it doesnt move and it should: WD-40.
If it moves and shouldnt: duct tape it.

This one has a pretty basic setup, decat down pipe, no mid box with standard rear box... The engine has a BAS remap and Alisport Intercoler with the usual EGR removal also and a few extra trimmings but that is all..

If anything the next improvement in my opinion is the full Alive stainless exhaust but to be honest I get my truck dirty... Actually Very Very dirty and don't want to bend it so happy with this setup Wink Defender 90 TD5 County -

That's encouraging - I've just put a de-cat down pipe on mine tonight bringing it to about the same spec as yours.

I tried but have no idea what he was doing... If he had some turbo or winch I might have some more respect but he clearly was mad as I only spotted him crossing lanes at the last second Defender 90 TD5 County -
