Take time to 'mull it over' I think the wheels look great in white. Maybe consider a purchase of a decent set of black wheels later and retain the white ones for swapping out perhaps in the winter? Get some milage/use out of the ones you have you'll only lose on them if you don't retain.

My plan was to wait till the winter is over then go from there to be honest. I really like sawtooths or Zu Alloys. TOO MANY CHOICES

So when do you get to drive it away? Is it all registered and ready to go? I'd be seriously irritated if that was my new Defender sitting all ready to go apart from someone messing up the funding package.
Why does doing the business have to be this problematic? New Defender looks good though. Better ask Santa for a good car cleaning kit to keep it looking mint. |

I think it looks awesome as it is. But Black sawtooth alloys at a later date would look amazing

Is that a stainless steel wiper arm I see? And/or stainless bolts on the bumper?
Looking great! I do like the 'DEFENDER' on the bonnet actually... Cheers, David Land Rovers of all shapes S3 onwards… Daily is a 110 V8. |

I’ve never had HP, finance or a mortgage, my philosophy is that if I can’t afford to pay cash for it, I can’t afford it - it was a struggle saving a quarter of a million for a house, though!
BUT, my son started University in September, required a guarantor for his accommodation, and I was foolish enough to submit myself to a credit check and provide bank statements. Since then I’ve been bombarded with mail from HMRC, and my State Pension - already only the basic minimum - has been reduced by forty quid a week until the sources of my other income can be verified. Coincidence? I think not… Peter |

I'm very similar, although I do accept some debt, ie mortgage.
Mortgage is a good example as over time money devalues, hence a large amount over a long period will actually cost you 'less' than paying for it in one hit. |
