The starting point for mine. Almost 6 hours on a train to Carlisle and a little more to get home. Drives beautifully Smile

Congrats Thumbs Up

...but from now on, use a different hosting service: Photobucket is the devil!

Imgur is a good substitute but there are others.

Am I missing something by just uploading photos straight on to here?? Confused As a bit of a lurker on Imgur I try to avoid it as it's an easy way to lose a few hours! 😌 James

I'd also order a set of these whilst you're putting your order in:-

If we start getting some really hot weather again, those vinyl seats in your soft top are going to get really warm Mr. Green



I can confirm sweaty back yesterday after being in the seat for six and a half hours! Haven't decided whether to replace the seats or get covers. 110 DCPU

I've found a good supplier of OEM seats, drop me a PM if it would be of use.

I'm currently debating what to do with mine. The techno cloth seats don't make you sweat like vinyl but I'm tempted to upgrade to something with warmers and perhaps full leather.

For interiors, I highly recommend speaking to Phil Bahfir at OEM Developments Thumbs Up

Mark, there is a SD roll cage and black hood for sale on FB Angry Pumas this morning, for £2k. I know the wrong colour and probably too late but might be of interest. James

Was thinking of a leather retrim kit from Exmoor maybe? I'll PM later. 110 DCPU

Only now ordered but I'll stick with sand and I want the hood without the XS alpine lights, side lights and rear lights - Same as Mr Fox.

Sand is quite a lot more pricey than Black typically!

Delivery date is anticipated 18th August....a whole month! 110 DCPU

Thanks Thumbs Up

She's in great condition...12,000 miles and one careful (ish) owner Mr. Green

The only niggle is that there's a dink in centre strengthener of the tailgate which I'll have to get repaired. The load area is unmarked. 110 DCPU

Congratulations, that most definitely, is a thing of beauty!

Damn, getting that envious, I wonder if, how could I get, Defender lust type feeling!
We considered doing this to our 90, but only to find none of the kits seem to be compatible with a removed bulkhead...

Enjoy!
Yours longingly!
Leon
