Whats MacNab Question


It’s not quite Scottish tea!! It is an attempt to shoot a brace of grouse, a red stag and catch a salmon all in the same day. You’ve got more chance of winning the lottery I imagine, but just the chance to do it would be worth it. Given the cost of all these things independently, it is the sort of thing I could only afford to do once in a lifetime.

Ello Ello, all good here. Hope you're all OK? The NC500 is brilliant, definitely one of those trips you need to do a few times to see everything. And it'll be different every time Thumbs Up 2002 90 Td5 Station Wagon

Got a new cubby lid in the defender. A twin stitch leather padded one to match the seats. Very comfortable it is too! Mr. Green

That looks great; goes well with the seats. Where did it come from?

I'm not sure about the purple flock gearstick gaiter, though Confused Darren

Thanks LRA, the lid is from IRB Developments.

The gearstick gaiter originally matched the headlining, however it has faded quite badly in the sun, I just haven't got round to removing it Thumbs Up

To be fair that particular picture makes it look much worse than it is Laughing 2002 90 Td5 Station Wagon

The first modification I've done in quite a long time! My mate gave me a D2 swan neck tow ball for my defender, hopefully it'll make hitching up easier Whistle

Anyway here it is getting a coat of paint Thumbs Up

Some fitted pictures. It looks really long but doesn't stick out as much as the spare wheel.

Should make hitching up easier - especially with alko friction stabiliser equipped caravans.

Still got the rear bumper, going to make another one when I get time that is slightly deeper and goes all the way across to suit the new tow ball Thumbs Up 2002 90 Td5 Station Wagon

does yours have electric head light adjusters? I have seen a few with the round selector switch, which was used as a fan speed switch Defender TD5 90 ---/--- Peugeot 306 HDI hatch back
