Thanks for the replies!

Yeah I called around to several dealers in my area (South Florida) and was able to locate a new one that they had previously ordered extra and had laying around.

I actually don't use the cover when off-roading as I don't want to deal with something extra getting in the way, but is nice to have on in the Florida sun when it's not covered.

How on earth can a spare wheel cover be chassis number related

I think its the go to responce at the parts counter these days, l called a local dealer to see if they had Defender wiper blades in stock, they wanted my reg number to get the vin number to see if they had the blades in stock. I seems silly but then I guess thats how the system works. 130's have feeling's as well you know

Hey Mark, I don’t remember the stock cover having a black background behind ‘DEFENDER’?

They’ve been OOS at powerfulUk for a while now.

Just got mine ordered from Shukers in Ludlow. May have got my hands on their last one!

Interesting when I spoke to a few local LR dealers they said that they are no longer offering up the spare wheel cover as an individual item and will now only come as part of the packs!?

Not sure if anyone else has heard this? Defender D240 First Edition in Pangea Green with Acorn interior. Wrapped roof in Gloss white. Few other dealer fitted extras.

Potential for a black market in unused spare wheel covers then?

I’ll have to remember to lock mine into the store in future. Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come
2020 D240 1st Edition in Pangea Green with Acorn interior. Now gone - old faithful, no mechanical issues whatsoever ever but the leaks and rattles all over the place won’t be missed!

Shukers were just about the only ones who had them left. I put it on here a couple of posts back. Accessories are starting to filter through on ebay more. Managed to get the expedition rack for the 110 at £800 yesterday. Keeping my eye out for the integrated compressor.

Has anyone had the rattle in the top right hand side of the drivers door ? I also get the same from the top right windscreen at around 70mph. Grange came to pick mine up for this and I had to show them a cure for the drivers door rattle posted by a chap in Scotland0 on how to cure it. Bad show when you have to rely on others to tel you how to cure problems that should have been picked up on road testing.

2015 Defender 90 Puma 2.2 XS CSW Montalcino Red

Buying (at a discount) and selling for over retail price is how they make their money

No different to eBay sellers selling at over RRP, it's the convenience for some I guess.
