Wise words Ian. TBH it's easy to be blinded by bling. Steve.
Owned numerous Land Rover vehicles of all shapes and sizes over the decades. Current Defender: A non tarts hand-bagged Puma 110 XS USW. [Insert something impressive here such as extensive list of previous Land Rovers or examples of your prestigeous and expensive items, trinkets, houses, bikes, vehicles etc] http://forums.lr4x4.com I used to be Miserable ...but now I'm ecstatic. |

Gone and done it........ bought a 2011/61 plate 110 XS 2.4 TDCi in Galloway Green. 8k on the clock with rubber mats, blue tooth, ipod dock, tow pack and the upgrade dual finish alloys with the Goodyear rangers on them. Had a full waxoil as the guy bought it as a keeper (don't we all).
Was really wanting the metallic grey one as discussed above but this one was a bit different and 6months younger. Private sale for £25250 Chuffed to little pieces and collect on the weekend Really thanks for all the info and help 
Now to start a thread on upgrades....... don't want to create but it's got a DMS re-map!! 1951 80" S1 2.0 1995 110 300TDI 1995 90 300TDI |

All change!
Sellers kids and wife decided they wanted to keep the thing  Even paid for a HPi on it but hey ho
Just bought a grey one 2011/11 from Harwoods. Same price but only 4k miles ex demo and Hrwoods on the log book. Managed to get them to throw in a new expedition rack for that cash too so well pleased

Glad you found another so quick, sounds nice
Why do people mess you about  If you advertise something for sale then sell it, make your bloody mind up before you put it up for sale and waste peoples time and money. They need to refund you for the HPI check you did Buying and selling time-wasters should be kicked up the ass for each mile, minute and pound youve lost .....feel better for that |

If you decide to go for the 'Dual finish alloys' I highly recommend the 'copies' available from Craddocks, Ebay etc at about £100 each.
They are identical except they read '4x4 LTD' instead of 'Defender', alledgly made in the same factory as the genuine article. I've had a set for three years now on my SVX copy and there is NO sign of corrosion whatsoever ....

Collected yesterday. Loving it!
Drove 150miles back home - kids went wild and wife went 'er, it's a bit imposing'! Driving tuition set for this afternoon - and some parking in the village and Tesco's to get her happy with the thing. 1st impressions, not as noisy as I thought on the demo drive, not leaked in yet even in this weather and looks great. Winch and bumper going on tonight - bumperettes on order and next month will get a swing away carrier. It's an addiction not a car. 1951 80" S1 2.0 1995 110 300TDI 1995 90 300TDI |

Hi Lee,
Not sure about the offset but I would presume it was identical to the Boosts. There are 25mm spacers fitted and the tyres are Cooper STT's in a 235/85/16 size |
