2015 Defender 110 Puma 2.2 USW Stornoway Grey

fitted mud front heater deflector the best 28 pounds i have spent no more burning legs from the heater easy fitted just used double sided tape so i dint have to drill the dash

dynamited the rear load area in preparation for the carpet the difference in road noise is noticeable and i think i will do the rest before i fit the exmoore carpet .
i use the defender for towing the first time this weekend took my 14 year old son c1 rally car to rally on sat brilliant for towing didn't even notice the trailer on behind

Hi, your truck looks great, well done. Just a query though, I have the same steering wheel and mines a Momo quark? Is yours definitely called a Jet? Maybe Momo have renamed them? 110 Hardtop

Judging by the plate your in Norn Iron so I'll keep an eye out for you, lovely job indeed. I went from a Brabus G Wagen and a Merc CL500 and am absolutely in love with my 110.

Excellent work Sir

Consider a Goodwinch TDS Goldfish http://www.goodwinch.com/
If I wanted an electric winch that's what I'd fit.

I got a free Warn one with mine, but they're really rather pricey if you're actually buying it and I'm not convinced they're any better.

Hi Ben
Just read your thread now and having a good chuckle....our choice of vehicles is very similar, my wife drives an 86, and I have a 110.
Both great fun!
