I'm a real big fan of the look of the orange defender with the black add-ons, but, having a black 110 I certainly wouldn't re-spray it !!
Anyway I was wondering if anyone had seen the reverse done, i.e a black defender with orange chequer plate, roof rack and so on ? Do you think it would work ? Opinions and abuse welcome  |

It wouldn't be for me, it may look a little..."Halfords' !
How about a full orange wrap? |

You could be right with G4, I'm a novice to this Defender malarkey, anyway, orange bonnet / roof looks pants
Powder coated accessories might work though  |

If you want the ex RAC van look go for it, each to their own as people on here are fond of saying

Hello Motoberg
I recently drove a Thor Defender with just a few items given an 'accent' colour less is often more... but as we know for the purists nothing is always best... 
Click image to enlarge I think the Towing Eyes bolted to the Chassis Front and Back have both an aesthetic and practical reason to be signal orange... SKIP
