what's the bowler gear shift like? I know these can be a little transit van looking with the gear stick, Defender TD5 90 ---/--- Peugeot 306 HDI hatch back

it replaced a SVX which i still have lying around somewhere...
i love the feel of it actually, just with the 'slick shift' it rattles like no tomorrow!!!! super crazy annoying when i have a passenger in the car, normally the music masks it... |

I see you have jumped to coopers from begat in readiness for the engine swap how do they compare, would the all terrains not handle the grunt, I am in a similar boat as mine has been at wildcat for almost five months having the engine swap.

Front end changed around a little...
A bar bracket's don't work with the bowler bumper due to its thickness where it mounts... I have contacted bowler and do have a plan but ill see what they suggest... Bowler sills should be back from powder coating today. Click image to enlarge |

Not too much been going on... I'm away driving my other lady which is substantially larger about,
Kinda bit bored of the defender as of late, been spending lots of time in other 2 British 2 seaters with substantially more power and less ground clearance... Also having fun with the drone when i get a spare minute. Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Back in March lets see what happens... not really much more to change on the truck, thinking 2x din is the next logical thing but really do like the clarion fold out unit i currently have. |

Sure is one hell of a size difference!!
Bet the turning circle is about the same 
I have 16in Zu rims on mine so know that 6 pots wouldn't fit but would be interested to explore the avenue of better brakes such as 4 pots or something as I definitely need to get something done with the brakes as they're shocking!  |

She turns on a dime, 80,000hp on the stern & about 28,000 on the bow...
Probably stops quicker than a defender too. I did find some pics of the truck with its bowler sills and roof rack added, ill post these later. |
