It will be worth it Jaro, just wait till you see the rims on and the grin will get bigger and last for longer and you will say to yourself ' i made the right decision ' spot on

Took some pics for the 'before'
Having said that, mine is having very few bits done, Mrs JK's 90 should be more exciting.

JK84,...You should've asked for a ride in the LS3 vehicle,...check out the exhausts,...I'd jump at the chance to sample something like that.

Was a great day indeed! They did say it attracted a bit of attention at Goodwood. I wondered about a test drive, but 90k + VAT, perhaps not today
Well, the 110 is now almost done - needs the wheel cover finished in aintree and the letterings in indus silver. And I'll be a happy chap. Maybe powdercoat the chequers on steps in black, but not 100% sure yet. Very happy with the outcome. Left the 90 behind and collecting next weekend.

Looks stunning. Great job.
Feel sorry for cars behind you when you flick up stones! Are you keeping it without the mud flaps? |

A very fine look indeed. Black front end looks the biz on an aintree.

Well Jaro, what a transformation, looking awesome and the final decision on the wheels are spot on, one less thing to worry about now
 I really loved that blue on the Urban LS3 total fab colour. The wifes 90, was it her choices of upgrades ? was you allowed some input into the upgrades as well  1996 Golf Blue 300Tdi 110 Pick up.

Gentlemen, thank you for the kind words, much appreciated!
Glad about the wheel choice, just enough offset and extra tyre width to give it a nice stance - feeling like a little boy, having a sneaky look out of the window all the time. Haven't had much off an input on the 90 - basically none Mrs JK had a very clear idea of what she wanted it to look like. But I think it will be a cracker. Probably not a bloke's kind of Defender, nevertheless a unique one for it's owner - and I think it will suit her very well.
