United Kingdom 2004 Defender 90 Td5 CSW Santorini Black
Series Specialists
I'm hoping to acquire a 1949/50 Series 1 in the next week or two. It's structurally perfect, but needs a thorough mechanical overhaul.

I would have liked to have taken it to Philip at Dunsfold DLR, but sadly he's no longer operating his business. Crying or Very sad

Does anyone know of a good Series specialist in Gloucestershire, London, Surrey, or generally somewhere south of Cambridge?

Cheers! Charlie

Jon is the one who currently has the vehicle I’m off to see, but he’s not taking on any mechanical work for 6 months.

Julian is going to give me a call later today Thumbs Up Charlie
