Snorkel and breathers
Winch bumper with twin spot lights

Brand new radiator, water & oil pipes, viscous coupling and thermostat
Brand new AliSport Dual core Intercooler and hoses
Reconditioned Gearbox and new clutch
Straight through exhaust with custom side exit
Wildbear grill and headlight guards
Custom made interior cubbies
90 rear benches
Custom rear seat mounts push the seats back for better leg room

Alas, spec at purchase also includes:
Vague steering
Rusty doors and boot
Dodgy wooden brakes
Non functioning reverse light and rear wiper
Leaking cam cover and vacuum pump leaking oil
Fuel pipes worn
Groaning wheel bearings
Worn track rod ball ends

Awful tinny sounding stereo.

Lots to do!

Hi and welcome!

Great looking Landy! Good spec too. Make sure you invest in some decent security measures too, they’re popular with thieves.

As for the other issues, they’re commonplace with defenders. I’ve got the same!

Hello and welcome

Very nice

Thanks for the welcome

Theft threat is not good. It has various security countermeasures (not going to post exactly what security it has on a public forum). What are thought to be the best deterrents?

Also not liking the bucket front seats so much. Is there a swap area rather than a buy/sell area on here? Would like some original ones ideally in place of the Tyrex buckets.

Welcome to the forum

Vague steering and rust is part of the appeal to some owners.
