2008 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 SVX Station Wagon Santorini Black
I have bought a 2nd hand UK cluster. I took the unit apart last night and I have some good news for everyone.

The cluster is lit by leds soldered onto the circuit board, so patchy lit clusters should be a thing of the past.

My local dealer (land rover) has promised a new UK (MPH/KPH) cluster install and config on friday (tomorrow), let's see how that goes Shocked

update: true to form: the dealer emailed later today, cant do it today will do next week.

given up and fitted the mph decal myself .. all done .. ready to import.

Haha nahhh! I'd leave too many streaks on the windows. Plus I'd spend most of my time being nosey at whats going on inside...

'attempted' to treat the rust spots and little leaky holes in my footwells. I'm fighting a losing battle aren't I?

I have abandoned the Puma for week while in France on hols driving a Corsa 1.3 diesel..........

it feels so small and light and the seats are awful.. i really don't like the auto stop/start at junctions etc, even my wife has said she has missed the Puma and next time we come down to South France we should drive and either take the FL or the Puma.

LR CONVERSION COMPLETED Laughing Laughing Laughing BM52

Fitted my Mammouth chequer plate on the bonnet, I'm not a fan of chequer plate, but as I'll be walking on it to the roof rack, needs must!
So as it's double skinned where the holes are (except 2)...I riv nutted it on Thumbs Up

Another big clean, Hammerited one of the rear speaker covers that was corroding a bit.

I think all Landys should be supplied with black Hammerite! Defender 110XS SW gone... now VW California 180 4 Motion.

Might be because wet surfboards were in the car a while back - I now store them on straps hung from the grab handles! Defender 110XS SW gone... now VW California 180 4 Motion.
