2015 Defender 110 Puma 2.2 Adventure Phoenix Orange
Jerry's adventure 110 update - underbody treatment
Always wanted a Defender.

Went on the celebration tour. Thought the adventure looked stunning and came back and found a dealer with one allocation left in Orange (my preferred choice). Arrived late Dec, but only picked it up yesterday from Bristol. So far it far exceeds my expectations: orange is nicer than in pics - more burnt orange, gear change is generally light apart from 3rd to 4th which is stiffer, interior trim looks fantastic (slight nick on side of cubby box), slight dampness in one corner of drivers footwell (not that bad given the amount of rain we have had - been sat outside for 6 weeks, because delayed at special vehicles), and no apparent fluid leaks ...so far!

Need to get use to the turning circle.

Gone off to a local garage / body shop to get fully underbody and cavity Dinitrol treatment as want this as a keeper & adventures for the family.

I wonder why they have removed the logo from the front of the roof racks?? It looks like its missing something there IMO.... You could get a nice one made up.... Andy

Hello


Looks great, like it


Make me smile though its a Brand new car and what £40K + and the laid back attitude to a bit of damp carpets....

Any other model of car and it was damp it would not be driven off the forecourt...

Smile

I agree, but I have seen how they are built - so just expected it.

Thanks for everyones comments.
I also agree with making up a plate for the front of the roof rack. looking forward to the Defender waves...
