2015 Defender 110 Puma 2.2 XS CSW Bronze Green

Lizzy

I've wanted a Defender for a long time, it's an itch that will just not go away. Now I've scratched it.

Here is Lizzy, we plan to go on great adventures together.

So far I have concentrated on security, fitting TMD hinges all around, Optimil door handles without locks and Optimil removable steering wheel and Momo Montecarlo. I have also added a few electrical security measures as well.

She already has an Alive Tuning stage 2. On the To Do list is replacing the headlights. She already has LED headlights but I think there are eBay specials. Dipped beam is not too bad but main beam is pathetic, I live in the middle of the countryside and drive on unlit tracks regularly. NAS rear step. Fox shocks. Full sound proofing. Arduino CAN Bus dashboard information display.

Hopefully the roof top tent will arrive before our first trip in May.

Hello from Oakham Lizzy looks very nice. It’s it a lack of light or perhaps just adjustment? I’ve the real cheap eBay led headlights on my series and they are great. I have noticed tho because the light is whiter you don’t see so much glow in front of you but they really pick up items on or around the road with a strong contrast.

I’m not sure what the colour is called, on the V5 is says Brown.

It’s metallic with a bit of a flip, it’s sort of grey one way and bronze the other. Apparently it’s normally a Range Rover colour.
