United Kingdom 2014 Defender 110 Puma 2.2 XS CSW Havana
The Puma sat sulking on the drive today while i used a Seat 1.2 3 cyl 64bhp Ibiza. It's the exact opposite of the Puma. No torgue and you need to rev it quite high as a result. stalled it 3 times Embarassed BM52

ZU's, a-frame, towing package and undershield are getting swapped over from the 90 then have some colouring to do to it Wink


Nice! I must say that white Defenders have really grown on me.

I'm thinking about replacing Big Black for a 110 in a years time... No idea what I'd call it... Bigger Black maybe??

Just out of interest what will LR do with your old 90? I'm assuming that because of the fuss they kicked up regarding the remap they won't be able to sell it as an approved used car? Or will they just sell it cheaper with no warranty?

They're planning on selling it, after the last breakdown they put on the original engine map and replaced the intercooler and pipes back to stock. As soon as they sell out the my12 stock they'll put my 90 up for sale. When I bought it as a 2011 model, it was the last in stock, they brought in a couple of 2009 models and sold them for the same price. As for white I never was interested in the colour but as I've seen a couple of nice ones on the web it gave me inspiration to customize the look to my liking. Now just need to find out how to stencil a defender logo Thumbs Up 2012 Fuji White 110 Flattened

Idea Actually I'll get stickers made up and paint over them so the writing stays in white Very Happy what font do you guys think will make a good "DEFENDER" decal? 2012 Fuji White 110 Flattened

BIG - the two examples I have seen have DEFENDER starting at the bottom rear going up towards the front,, diagonally. Pics have been on the forum (maybe on the spotted thread but a long time ago!) It's easier with a Utility of course but you can put stickers on the window part made by a sign writer. You can also order the lettering from the Internet. Many boat owners order their boat name lettering over the net Wink

Actually wanted to make a decal at any local sign shop to go at the base of the bonnet bulge then paint the bulge and remove the decals to leave the writing in the original body color. Didn't know what style of font to use

Great SEB, especially for the boy Thumbs Up I nearly bought one last year at the Cow Pie show (had 2 for sale £1800!) but we have no land to ride it Big Cry

That's got to be the best fun a boy can have, the kids round us used to drive them at 8 years old, couldn't reach the pedals just stood up to use pedals then hopped on the seat Laughing No H&S in those days Very Happy

Not going to paint your calipers red then Brian Whistle I'm tempted Shocked but will do them black or silver when they go!


Nah, to brassy for me Chris. Will do them silver once they start to show signs of corroding. Thumbs Up
