Picked up this cage today. It's been temporarily fitted to get it home.
I'll fit it properly over the next couple of days

Yes it does AT4x4
They fitted it without the chassis connections just to get me home. It took them 20 minutes. Cheers Andy Cheers Andy Never Knowingly Understood |

Nothing today, but went for a drive yesterday. Doing a favour for a good friend. Left home at 0400, collected mates trailer at 0600, returned trailer at 2130hrs ish arrived home at 2340.
Home is Bristol, trailer is Wellington, Somerset and the mission for the day. Collect something from Newcastle and deliver to Wellington. So about 850 miles round trip. To say I'm a tad tired today would be an understatement. Good fun though. Puma performed perfectly all day. Managed 36mpg on the way up and 23mpg on the way back with a loaded trailer. So not to shabby 110 D250 SE HT 110 USW SOLD RRE HSE Dynamic Gone, wife killed it VOLVO XC60 R Dynamic with some toys Polaris RZR 900XP SOLD |

Drove my 90 for the last time today as its now sold
Will miss it terribly as its been a great first step into Defender ownership and always a pleasure to drive over the last 3+ years. Other than one problem with drive shaft failure and some minor corrosion on the mudflap brackets and around the front screen (all resolved under warranty or with LR goodwill) its been perfect for our needs. Shame it only had two seats and we occasionally need more space. The good news is that we pick up the MY15 110 XS Utility from FCX at the weekend after its been fully soundproofed, carpeted and had some nice leather bits and other things done  Ex 2015 110XS USW in Aintree Green
EX 2010 90HT (XS spec) in Keswick Green/ Landy Glass |
