Hi Rosco
It's mine, and it's a 6x4. You must have seen it just before it spat its gearbox out and it's currently being refreshed with a 4.6 RV8 and R380 box. It's been around for a while and is getting a bit long in the tooth now so is overdue some TLC. With the expected thirst of the V8, I suspect that we'll probably start to use it a little less now to keep running costs down. |

No 1, thanks for the reply.
Am I right in thinking that it was featured in one of the magazines a few years ago? Probably LRO. 2007 - Stornoway Grey 90 XS SW - Gone 2002 - Black Discovery II - Gone 2014 - Montalcino Red 110 XS SW |

Yes, that's right, good memory. It was the first Defender I bought when I set Redtrail up. We've grown a little since then and now have 6 Defenders in the fleet, with hopefully another couple to be bought before they stop producing them.
I need to get some updated pics on our website as we're phasing out the red Td5s and buying black Pumas. |

I'll still have the copy of it somewhere as I have ahabit of hoarding old magazines
I'm guessing you have an employee in Tamworth, judging by the number times I've seen Red Trail vehicles parked round the corner from the office where I work. Not that I'm stalking you guys or anything  2007 - Stornoway Grey 90 XS SW - Gone
