I keep a spare key for the filler tank cap in a container in the cubby box. It is a lot easier to use a small key on it's own than one attached to the ignition key and fob. 1982 88" 2.25 diesel

2011 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 SW Baltic Blue

I think I'd actually vote the gas-strut as my favourite mod - marvel at it every time I open the door (wife gives me a

)

Anyone know if LR have caught on and put one on the MY12? Tell someone you love them today because life is short.
But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing...

They are focusing on the DC100, rumour has it they have designed a new scanning sensor that will automatically open the rear door using solar powered motor when you cough. (no more fumbling for your keys!) Paul

I'd be interested in the gas strut one day. Would one fit on a 90 HT puma?
