Great vids. Really looks like your auto performs well.
Doesn't look like you have a lot of clearance in your arches with those wheels. I take it they don't touch under full articulation. One that started out as a 2.4 TDCi 110 XS + New Defender 110 First Edition |

they do touch a wee bit, but nothing major. if it becomes a problem, then i will have bigger arches fitted. Cheers keith puer claudius |

Top spirit!!! that's what defenders are about at the end of the day. heard some facts the other day:
65% of defenders are still on the road since 1948 85% of people in developing countries, the first car ever seen was a defender.  110 Tdci Double Cab |

Looks like a good weekend and sunny!, are you sure you were in The Lakes. The defenders made it look easy, did the FFRR make it through the trip undamaged.

Hi
the FFRR made it without damage, even with the suspension set to normal hight and not off road. the micky t performed well, but, there was plenty of grip and it was a dry sunny day as you can see. yes, we were in the lakes. Cheers keith puer claudius |

Did the RR forget to engage clearance setting or was it stuffed? Puma 110 - gone Series III 1973 - going strong |

I had a Disco 3 TDV6 for 10 days (fender on the lift) and spent most driving time playing with all the buttons as us guys love doing.
Got some disgusted frowns in the traffic when playing with the 3 height settings at the traffic lights.  Puma 110 - gone
Series III 1973 - going strong |
