Hello and... The only SVX so far?
Good afternoon all, am I the first owner of an SVX 90 SW to post so far?

This is the first Land Rover I have owned - and my first ever post on a forum!
I've read some very interesting comments though some a bit worrying about things to come!
So far it's been great fun to drive, and i seem to notice other Defenders at every turn - a friendly bunch who usually wave.

Will happily post pics or info if anyone's interested. First, Last - or Different!

Hi, thanks for the welcome.
I found this site linked from another forum (LandyZone I think).

I bought my SVX from Harwoods in Basingstoke - good bunch I thought.
I test drove a Defender XS and Freelander to compare/confirm day to day practicality etc.
They do have a Soft Top SVX in the showroom if anyone's interested. Roof down though - looks a bit of a task to put it up, maybe better in Dubai!

Have yet to post a couple of pics for chalky re cubby box lights and switch (don't think I have a public access server?)

Will post some on web space soon. First, Last - or Different!

Can't see how far into the box the lights go as the inner front section is boxed and encloses the hifi subwoofer too.

Could take a few pics but will have to wait till the cleaning lady has time to clean out the weekends debris!!

they do take up quite a bit of space on the inside of the box - shelf 2" (or so) further back than the front edge of the angle all the way down Cheers

I've added the SVX in the profile options as a model (so where you've got Station Wagon selected you can now choose SVX Station Wagon) Smile
