Oh thanks, Vin cover to hide the number but why a seat rail Question


seat rails to give you more leg room if you are anything over 5"10, makes for a much more comfortable driving position and helps keep your elbows in the car. Lots of companies make them but they are pretty easy to make yourself.

I will be ordering various products from Dinitrol. I haven't used it for many years and it looks as though they have some new products since then. I will let you know how I get on with it and show you what the LR 110 treatment diagram looks like.

http://www.dinitrol.co.uk/classic_cars.aspx

Looking at the description I am not so sure it is the same as in the old days as it is wax based and only good for up to 4 years. The main product I was interested in used to be a thick black goo you put on new surfaces for absolute protection and it would stay on for life. Maybe H&S have changed the product. I will give them a call on Monday and feedback!

True - My first Puma came in May 07 and the wait didn't seem too bad as no-one had one and the launch was between ordering and delivery.

This one is due next month and was ordered in Feb - just seems a longer wait Laughing John

Took the kids out of school today to pick up my new Defender - sooooo pleased with "Elektra" she looks great and drives really nicely.

I didn't mention the Dual Finish wheels until everything was signed and then asked why it had them on - salesman said "the delivery spec sheet says it should have boost alloys on". "Oh dear, never mind we have signed the vehicle off as it is now "- thanks Justin Thumbs Up Laughing

And finally at home to eleviate the 109" of some of her daily duties - BUT it's great fun with the tilt off in this weather. You Defender owners really ought to get a Series if you haven't already got one - they re great fun Thumbs Up

The SVX wheels with the diamond cut finish seem to corrode badly for no reason. I only fit mine in summer and the do have marks already. I will have them re-finished once they get worse. 2008 RS4 gone, 123d M Sport, and a Puma 90 XS..
