So What Happens Now
So that's it, in a few weeks there will be no new Defenders being delivered to customers as a result there will be:-

No one posting pics of their new truck.
No one asking question about their new truck.
When everyone has finished modifying their trucks there will be no questions about 'how to' or 'what do you think'

As a result will the traffic on here diminish? 130's have feeling's as well you know Smile

Not quite,, there will always be the " which Tyre" "which LED headlamps" etc etc etc

But then, i guess a pinned section can sort that, and we can all get out a bit more Rolling with laughter California F1, 75th 110 "Kermit", 50th Ann V8, 90 V8 Hybrid, 55 Series 1

I dunno, the thread about Defenders in Waitroseīs car park seems to be quite lively. Thereīs potential there. "Defenders at the doctors", "Defenders at the betting office" .... something like that Shocked Shocked Shocked

Sooner or later there will be a thread about how to de-mod your Defender. Remove all the LEDīs, lower the cubby box, source original seats and steering wheels, how to fill holes left by the chequer plate rivets. There will be a thriving market for original wheels (already is!), steering wheels, speakers and lights. 1998 Tdi 90 SW,

What about a 'hows your seat base wearing' perhaps a time lapse feature could be added Martin? ie take a pic of the seat base in the same position every three months up load the pics press play and we could watch the seat base deteriorate. Thumbs Up 130's have feeling's as well you know Smile

On the plus side I guess there'll only be three more years of threads regarding warranty issues over poor paint jobs, and people moaning about poor customer relations. Be an even more worthwhile site once we're all taking responsibility for our own truck!
