What did you use on the black plastics to get them to look that good? Cheers Ian

I keep looking at the black wheel arches… I think I would love to see them white as well.
It’s a wonderful truck, no doubt it will turn out to be perfect In every way. 2002 Td5 | 90 County Station Wagon | Oslo Blue 2006 Td5 | 90 County Station Wagon | Tonga Green (Gone ) 2002 Td5 | 90 County Station Wagon | Zambezi Silver (Gone) |

I noticed that there was no front bumper on the 90, does there have to be one on for the mot ?
Agree with you on the paint work Clayton.

Hi Clayton
Not sure on bumper but I wouldn't think it would be fail. Let's face it - a Defender bumper is a steel channel bolted to chassis so doesn't really help with pedestrian safety. It failed anyway on other items which I fully expected it to. The mot was done in order to get a list of work done requiring attention for a vehicle that has been stood for 7 years. |
