after spending most of the morning getting covered in transmission fluids gave it a scrub. You'll see Brunel grilles are not available in Ireland but black is growing on me

Very nice and shiny Smile. I never knew the grills weren't available there- you say yours is a CSW (in the icon thing)- The Brunel grills were only on the XS.

Ireland 2011 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 CSW Stornoway Grey
thanks Glyn!
yes in Ireland you don't have the County or the XS like in the UK. You start off with the base and build up your options so mine has the 'county pack' which includes alarm,leccy windows,carpet,central locking plus aircon, MP3 radio and 7 seats. The wheels and side steps are Paddocks. I asked if I could have a Brunel grille as an option but it wasn't available but could be ordered as a part for € 900 !!- my reply had the words off and f**k in it. I thought CSW meant County station wagon ??

I think my answer to that would have had a few other word that aren't suitable on a forum... £900!! Just keep yur eyes out on ebay as they pop up every now and then for about £50-100 for a full set.

Yeah CSW as in county spec so no Brunel grill. Didn't realise there was no XS spec there, but it is the same here in Cyprus- you get a base model and then add 'packs' and accessories to it.

Every day is a school day!

Me and my new Defender spent the day at St Omer Barracks, helping to reassemble a Discovery for Project Mobility (http://www.projectmobility4x4.org). When I say I, it was actually the three guys below.

From left to right: Jon Day, L/C Gary Kennedy and Nick Wilson. Great Guys!

I had a really good day, lots of laughing, drinking tea and messing about with Land Rovers. What more do you want in life. More pictures in my gallery, please have a look.

Reversed my 90 3ft. Opened garage and spent another couple of hours trying to trace the cause of misfiring on my 2a. No luck. Closed garage and drove 90 3ft forward Smile.

Rubbed down the ARB winch bumper, epoxy primed the thing, then two gloopy coats of hammerite satin black. Also repainted the wolf mirror arms and the rear ladder.

Not the neatest paint job, but a darned sight better than it was Wink


And then found the Hammerite had reacted with the primer Big Cry

So rubbed it all down and started all over again - looks loads better now Thumbs Up Dave

Thanks guys, Mark the Grille was from LRX but I think that they have since changed their name to KBX

The rear Hood is an Exmoor Trim Mohair, with zip up sides, which are absolutely brilliant Thumbs Up Thumbs Up
