I love it!

I have always preferred the non-uk 50th anniversary models as they are lower key without boilerplate and white is my favorite colour too.

All the best!

Like this? Ok, can't help with the white here Very Happy

The last photo of my two V8's together. The old csw has now left to go to a new owner. I'm hoping she is going to be exported to an enthusiast within the EU

Why does your V8 get exported? But I understand your move to buy the Jap 50th. Fantastic car! Very interesting detail with the plate showing the 50th stamp next to the number.

Oh no, sorry, it's not yours, but it's exactly the same.


I LOVE that new v8 of yours. Congratulations.

After 6 weeks away she is finally home after a new engine fitted. While engine was out I took the opportunity to clean things up a bit. New engine fitted with modified top hat liners Very Happy

Have I missed something?
Why did you have to fit a new engine, and when you did, what capacity & specs did you fit?

Sadly the engine was pressuring up so she had probably slipped a liner or block had become porous. The engine was swapped for same spec but with the modified liners.

Bad luck there then, but you've still got a lovely vehicle, that is for sure, and a relatively unusual one too.

By far, my favourite Defender on this forum.
I'm not too sure about the cassette (or the spots), it was bad enough having a CD player in the 911, it drove me nuts.
I'd be putting a modern bluetooth stereo in the cubby, keeping the cassette player where it is.

I hope you never sell it, but if so 'bags' !

Deserved Cool

I had a look at the site you had this from and there are a couple on there, but not this good. It's good to know they're available.
I'll just have to settle with what I'm building, though it's never going to be 'factory'.

The red one looks nice and tidy with sensible km's but I can't believe current asking price. I think the Japanese have clicked there is a strong market over here. By the time you factor in VAT, duty and shipping then the cost becomes prohibitive.
