That's Barney the Lancashire Heeler - top farm cattle dog. Him and the Jack Russell quite enjoy the back of the 90 - and keeps the cab a lot cleaner than Dad's Isuzu.

Very nice, another vote to stick with the standard grill. IMO the heritage grill and the majority of the aftermarket ones look dreadful 2001 90 HT 6.0LS/6spdAuto.
2003 90 td5 soft top.
2014 90 XS SW 2.2.

Thanks guys. Might give it a wash and wax tomorrow. Already got it caked in mud and cow 5h!t. Now thinking I need a 300tdi as a farm vehicle and keep this one for best.... then I'd want to keep that one for weekends and end up getting a Fourtrak and running that into the ground.

I get what some of you are saying about the grille but there's something about the Celebration Heritage (not the TD5 one) that had it been painted Keswick instead of Grassmere, I'd think it the perfect Defender.

But the wheel arches have to be body colour. https://instagram.com/bentheoandrews

@CY88 Thanks. Was going to say "but there's this awesome 'fender on Instagram with a brunel grill and no light surrounds/keswick green and galv bumper" then realised it was yours!

Two additions this week. Roof rack and a Defender2 sticker.

Landy still needs a good wash.

What about just colour coding the front surrounds and grill and adding a galvanized bumper.
Lovely, clean and traditional looking!

ben I do have a spare black grill here, if you want it to paint green. I took it off mine when I switched to the sliver. Defender TD5 90 ---/--- Peugeot 306 HDI hatch back
