Hi there everyone - long time lurker but new member.
I purchased myself a nice defender about a month ago now, a 300Tdi 110 CSW. Milage was higher than i wanted but it was within budget, had stacks of history and seemed in good nick. Lots of work had been done, including the doors etc.
I had previously had a discovery 3 which was simultaneously the best, and worst car i have every owned - constant faults meant that after 9 months it got sold. After some time i somewhat 'accidentally' bought this one on ebay... you know how it is! Sneaky bid in you don't expect to win - either way - so far so good. It has of course needed some work but ill save that for the project thread.
its the daily driver at the moment, but the plan is to have for expedition use. I plan however to keep it as standard as possible.
Day one i took it green laning and was very pleased with it and my own performance, at the moment the money is going on the mechanics and getting it 'right'. There are few niggly things that are getting sorted and then i can have some fun!
Here she is
