Roof box fitted ready for camping next week. Think I'm going to need a ladder!

Bit of an update with more to come when I actually get things fitted. Busy Easter break with several road trips, firstly up to Keswick camping for a week, then a weekend down in Henley. Racked up some miles and not wanting to tempt fate, but bar a slow puncture the Defender behaved faultlessly!
Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge So following our camping trip and discovering how difficult roof boxes are on a 110, I found this on FB. Another road trip to Stoke and came away with a very nice trailer with lots of potential. Click image to enlarge Spent more time talking with the owner about his Defender's which were stunning with lots of mods. Two here and a third away having some work done, a real Defender enthusiast and very knowledgeable. Tried to encourage him to join us on Def2! Click image to enlarge Called in to the Great British Land Rover Show at Stoneleigh on the way home. Great to meet up with a few people I've spoken to lots but not met face to face. Managed to come away without spending a penny!

Totally agree with you about not being sure but once what ever you have bought and put on, it all comes together and then you can say to yourself " yes i made the right choice, nice one "

Hi James
What size tyres did you go for and did you keep the spacers on? Cheers Brendan |

Same diameter as original just a little wider, 265x75R16. 16" Bowlers are et10 so spacer came off, my excuse for 'needing' new alloys! Turning circle not quite so good now but still better than standard.
