I had it done at same time as remap intercooler etc and it was a bit of a jump in performance lol
Tried a couple times to sell on ebay and failed so I think its the car telling me not to sell her so decided to keep her and just finance my business venture through the bank 
shes currently in the garage for its 6k oil change, fix the broken rear brake light, tidy up the rear x member and tow pack as its rusty and a few minor niggles Ill be ordering a new windscreen soon as its cracked and the heated screen doesn't work as a result also be going to buzzweld for a chassis treatment before winter kicks in and look at new front seats (Recaro's) and also new steering wheel as both are getting tatty. Also rear corner bumperettes to protect the rear corners and the lights. 2008 Santorini Black 110 XS USW (Sold) 2015 Discovery 4.5 Black pack Firenze red XS 2008 Corris Grey 110 XS USW (sold) 2011 Santorini Black 110 XS USW (Sold) |

not looking so clean now with a oil leak blowing onto the back, looks like it might be the transfer box seal, 3rd one this year!

110 has had some new corner bumperette fitted as I keep smashing the back lights
not much to report apart from its still ticking up the miles, I think its on 185,000 miles now.
Added a MUD UK handle to my storage drawer so I can now open it easily instead of trying to get my finger round the edges of drawer
Also got a MUD UK rear window grille for £45 posted as it was a prototype but it doesn't have the cut out for the high level brake light so ill have to cut it out and paint the cuts before I can fit it.

What a beauty you have there. I love the roll cage, and have thought about getting one myself, thin I was quoted about 3-4k and would loose the truck for 3 weeks...
I struggled with that fact. She's my daily... May have to wait for a summer time and use my hike to get to work... 😔 Regards Adam Loving The Duchess The Defender 110 TD5 XS My Defender story - http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic64005.html |

I got the cage off a ex quarry truck for £500 and had it fitted in 2 days for £300 so keep a eye for a used one
