United Kingdom 1989 Defender 110 V8 Petrol CSW Bonatti Grey
A respray, full set of Exmoor half leather seats, sunroof delete and a new headlining Very Happy

Unfortunately Land Rover in their wisdom, having supplied four genuine headlinings in a row all with defects, have now put a quality stop on headlinings and then all Censored off for Xmas Shocked

So the old girl is having a lonely xmas in a workshop a hundred miles away sitting waiting for a headlining so the rest of the trim can go in and I can go and collect. Probably an Easter present at this rate... Evil or Very Mad Fully Restored 89 110 CSW V8

CLS 350 CDI for the sensible stuff

Is that the 90 van with no air conditioning Andrew? Wink Land Rover Defenders. 67 years heritage, minimal appearance changes, still going strong all over the world. Not a fashion vehicle, but fashionable to own. Made for the needy, not the greedy. Ta ta Defender

Yours certainly looked shiner than mine. I'll be using some of the pics from your gallery when fitting them, had been looking for some ideas of how they fit.

Next job is re tap the threads on the back diff as they are full of crud!!! The front should be easy as it's had one fitted in the passed. The top plate and two bolts are still there.

Cheers 2006 Defender Double Cab- Zambezi Silver
