United Kingdom 2015 Defender 110 Puma 2.2 XS CSW Aintree Green
Pete, I have to admit a very sensible choice in the end Bow down I haven't considered the 'requirements' Embarassed While I am actually myself concerned about the front end protection and security, and that's only driving on A roads and motorways in UK Very Happy Have been contemplating to install a heavy duty front bumper to my 110. And here I go preaching about the looks of yours. Anyways, I think you've done a stellar job on finding an OEM one, I'm sure it added to the satisfaction when it comes to ensuring all upgrades are true to the original roots of your Keswick Wink Keep up the excellent work! MY15 Aintree 110 SW - for sale - https://www.defender2.net/forum/topic82781.html

Hi Martin!

Thanks mate... yes I love it! NO regrets about selling the 110 for this!

Whats to come...

Remove rear seats
Dynamat entire vehicle
Fabricate and install rear storage and drawer system
Twin battery and electrics
Rear external 'area light' install
(still deciding on either a roof top tent or a 'cheap' camper trailer)

How about you and Gracie! Very Happy

Cheers, Pete YOLO... You Only Live Once...

Nothing in the mods area at the moment, I would instal the "Factory" Autobiography tune if it were available through dealers, but I reckon there's very little chance of that,......so she'll probably stay as she is. The traxide loom upgrade and/or Nolden headlights are things I think about,...but not seriously.
So, really mate, We've just been driving her, up to Wycheproof tomorrow for their Show, and then back again next week for the Wycheproof Cup.......plus a few other drives coming up, so she's definitely earning her keep!
Regards, Martin.

I will be looking more into the BAS 'tune' when I go back to the UK over Christmas... and will report back to you! Probably also bring back a new ECU! Wink

I am going to do the light 'loom' upgrade but will be staying with the 'classic' lights... I think the LED's take away a bit of the 'traditional' look. Besides, my 100W driving lights are bloody brilliant... Thumbs Up YOLO... You Only Live Once...

Cheers Ant!

Yes, a very worthy 'replacement'!

Shame... we never did get that 'Indus Silver' photo shoot in eh! Big Cry You will have to fly that flag now... I don't think the new owner is into forums etc!

How is your great machine anyway? You must still be up to mods various! Cool

Worthy indeed mate!

I love the fact that yourself and Pickles are staying true with your trucks. They'll be worth a small fortune in years to come if you keep them loved as I know you will Bow down

Yes real shame about the photo shoot but I think a 90 and a 110 would looks the goods also.

R2 is coming along well. Many more functional mods now but still more to do. I'll do a long awaited tread update soon so take care and happy Defendering mate!

Ant.

Was out and about in the 'local' area the other day and just had to take a couple of photos! Keswick Green seems to fit the countryside 'green' wherever you are in the world!

Cheers mate! Yes I love it!

There are some amazing places to see 'locally' in NSW. Just 40 mins drive and its total peace and quiet... apart from all the bloody flies of course! Laughing YOLO... You Only Live Once...
