RE: The book - mine didn't come with any literature or even a handbook which is a bit of a joke!

Also...if they did go on to produce 100, I will be asking LR for some money back as they cannot falsely advertise the fact they only produced 80! 2016 Defender Adventure 110

Have you looked underneath the passenger seat cushion, in the compartment where the battery is located for the handbook? That is where the factory put them apparently, and if the dealer hasn't taken it out, it may well still be there, as mine was.

Its an RDX item from bolt on bits,not that easy to fit onto an SVX as the light surrounds foul the top section of the bumper,meaning quite a bit of cutting back was needed.I also added the DRLS to the bumper.probably going to get a bowler one fitted in the near future.


Thats a hell of a line up there you got jolly! nice volvo FH behind too! Im assuming you are in the plant industry as well as me? Mr. Green :thumbsup:

Hi WSD
I saw your pic on another thread on here.....seems that there are a few guys on the site from the construction industry,I know that Simonpuma is into heavy haulage as well.
The FH that we run is a nice truck,gets a lot of attention I just wish I could get a good pic of the paint job!

So take list price, divide by 100 and then x by 80 should give the adjusted price over what I paid when there were only 80..... Makes it just under 50k. Ill put it to the dealer and see how it goes Rolling with laughter Various...

Good idea Pete.
So, 100 in the UK, well how many in total, or were these only sold in the UK?

I'll take some tomorrow, not a problem but don't expect to see anything you haven't seen before.
It's a bonusprint photo book of some old pics and cgi's from press releases etc.
Pretty p**s poor in my mind.
Think I'll back the car to the dealer over quantity made issue and buy a last of the line I can make my own.
Become a bit of a joke to be honest. Various...

You don't sound very happy? Is the car worth the extra?

Car is beautiful and I'm not disappointed with what i bought.

It's a matter of principle and that's what has annoyed me. Sell me and others one of 80 then knock out 100 (or more?) isn't something we should just roll over and take. Various...
