Hi all. I have a 1986 Defender that I have now owned for a year. It is my first Land Rover and my only question is...........Why did I wait so long before I got one?
I have been driving for 30 years and have owned all manner of car but the Landy is unique and I absolutely love it.
I have found this site really useful and inspiring and have finally bitten the bullet and joined up.

Welcome to the loonyzone, mate! :)
If it is a 86 vehicle, it isn't a Defender, it is a Ninety! ;)
One of the best vehicles ever made by landrover, I love mine, not surprised you are enjoying it! :cool:
Better late than never, as they say, I have been driving them for thirty years, look on the bright side, at least your back probably doesnt hurt as much as mine.
 
One year eh? And you're still happy? :confused: Give it time! :p Welcome from another 90 owner. They are unique, glad you're enjoying it. :)

Hi Turboman,
Thanks for the welcome. Your right it is a 90. Just got used to calling it a Defender as most conversations with friends went.... What car you got now? Me... A 90. Them.....?? Me.... A Defender. Them..... Oh, right! I love Defenders.

Know what you mean, but just cos a lot of folk say the earth is flat, doesn't mean it is! ;) :D
I can understand the confusion about Nineties, really gets on my wick when you see series as far back as the sixties advertised as Defenders, though! :(
