Christ France is expensive. Mine when I picked it up was like the white 7-seat SW MY10/2012. I bought mine for 19k€ and sold it for 32k€, but after adding Chq plate, Blindos, window tint, corbeau seats, momo, KBX light guards and vents, etc etc. And my mate sourced one yesterday in Germany, similar to the silver 7-seater MY10/2013, for just 27k€. My wife's TT that I am picking up tomorrow, is about 10-12k€ cheaper (second hand price) and 30k€ off list for a 1 year old car, again sourced in Germany. Nuts.

I've not been everywhere, but it's on my list.....

Spoke to a local guy who specialises in respraying bumpers etc. His advice was that for the effort involved, the risk of the paint cracking outweighs the advantage of nice shiny arches. With that in mind I'll bring a shine back to the arches as best I can and look out for a painted set to pop on in the future.

This is an old one but peanut butter (smooth!) is supposed to bring up black plastic beautifully:

Just don't kiss your Defender if you have a nut allergy.
