2011 Defender 90 Puma 2.4 ST Santorini Black
Good bye 90, hello 110

Click image to enlarge

Collected on Thursday and booked in next Tuesday for 2nd service. She's booked in for 2 days - Tuesday for the service and Wednesday for warranty items ( the usual suspects).
Driving home she did seem to be holding revs when dumping clutch to change gear (2.4 not 2.2). I'm sure this will be rectified on Tuesday.

Spent the whole day Saturday getting her to an acceptable standard:

Wet vac the interior - seats and carpets removed
Leather cleaned and touched up where required
Bluetooth stereo fitted
Steam cleaned chassis ready for waxing
Steam clean all exterior bodywork and polished
Sealed windscreen rubber, bulkhead, rear tub and rear body
Steamed engine bay and dressed, noticed a manifold gasket leaking to add to the list.

Just need the black tilt and roof rack

Thanks for the positive comments. Very few mods will be carried out other than essentials. As for the du11 plate - that will be swapped when I get my retention cert back Thumbs Up

Hi Ray
Yes they are standard 16's with 235's. I didn't want to alter the set up. Thanks for your comment.
