Welcome looks nice from pic I guess you'll be getting your speed kicks from car in pic.

fathaggis · Mar 6, 2015

Nice landy

Welcome!
Probably just a typo, but that's an '86 Ninety, right? Not a '96?

Definitely looks 86 from the reg

:welcome2: to the loonyzone, fathaggis!

And welcome to the world of landrovers, too. They are right, that looks like a Ninety, not a Defender 90. C Plate and no air intake on drivers side, as far as I can see from the pic. Someone has stuck a Defender badge on it.

Great choice of vehicle, I love mine.

yes my bad its an 86

90 or as some would call it a 90 defender

its in stunning condition new powdercoated bulkhead chassis repairs and the rest is good for a another 20 odd years .
my friend who is a master mechanic and he said its a stunner . already thinking a 300td transplant . but i like the n/a diesel . its fun on the hills

She does look nice! Get some decent security for the girl, if you don't have already.

Hello and :welcome2:

fathaggis · Mar 9, 2015

well that was all sorted also . newly fitted Clifford CONCEPT 650

Clifford Concept 650 Thatcham Alarms Southampton Hampshire Portsmouth West Sussex
that should suffice

security up here is closing the door and taking the keys out (sometimes)

over the weekend i have spent close on £400 on parts needed to finish it off my style .........
must resist led headlights :lvhearts-018:
