I feel your pain on the doors. I have a later all-steel passenger one tucked away and I'm on the hunt for a matching drivers side one.

Not sure about the alloys. As far as I know, they were never offered on 200tdi's due to the rear drum brakes. Does yours still have them, as they may not fit over the drums? Darren

Yeah it has a rear disc conversion luckily, so hopefully they should slip straight on!

The brakes are very poor though, apparently the late 200 tdi got the 300 tdi slave cylinders and they're prone to cracking. I might just take it in to the garage to get them overhauled as there are so many things which can cause pedal feel to go bad... plus I hate bleeding brakes.

No problem matey

Did a bit of work on Sunday, got the tow hitch off which was about as much fun as pulling one of my own teeth out (as all tow hitches are) ready for the rear member to be raptored after i've cleaned off the underneath.

This defender hasn't been bodged like allot of the older ones but she still has some surprises, a previous owner fit an incorrect 13mm on one of the hitch main anchoring points, glad I took it off now...

Hadn't even noticed this, bonnet will need to come off for this to be cleaned up and painted

Got some replacement fog and reversing light units, really bad design trying to get these off as the rear nuts were all rusted away, so had to drill them out

Rock sliders arrived today, should be going to pick up some new (to me) ET0 steel modulars with 265/75/16 tyres.

Probably going to paint them white, any idea which shade I need to match my roof?

Those doors do look very nice. Don't forget to fill the cavities with wax of some description! Darren
