2008 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 CSW Alpine White

Off topic slightly but is this now a Q plate?

Modified 90 chassis and axles
Jag engine
disco steering
and old body panels

I quite like it but its not a series 1 any more.

2013 Defender 90 Puma 2.2 CSW Keswick Green

Obviously a very professional, comprehensive conversion, but for that amount of "conversion", which would involve a huge amount of work at enormous cost, I'd be wanting a lot more "grunt" than that......could've dropped an LS3 in there for the same dollars.

It would. I saw a beautiful installation in a magazine some time ago.
The LS3 is a fairly compact unit,...probably doesn't take up as much space as some diesels.

I was thinking about this. Logically it would be a 90 as that is where the chassis comes from, but as that is cut down that alone would probably require an IVA. We then have the issue that if it is registered as a 90 the front end would be illegal due to headlamp spacing, and I doubt the interior would stand a chance of passing H&S regs. All in all it would be a C&U nightmare which I doubt could be road registered, but as a concept or track vehicle I have no doubt it would be great fun! 2011 110 USW
