Doesn't sound like a bad price for the peace of mind it gives to be honest :)

So true, the Toyota's are great vehicles, I know all the Famers and National Trust rangers around me have either Toyota Hilux's or Defenders Kinda makes me laugh, when I drive the Defender outside of Cumbria and every Defender driver waves, pips or flashes at me. I cross the border back into...

That looks really tidy for the age!! You still got the original 2.5 DT in there?

I think the truth of it, although a Toyota might be practical, she has been looking at Defenders since 2010, I think this girl is a Defender girl at heart, she has the Defender bug ;)

True!! I didn't pick up on that, well spotted :D And here is proof of his little fibs :p Bear Grylls 3 cars, A Disco, a Taxi and a series 2 (I think?) BTW, notice the Taxi's L-plate? *face palm*

Doesn't change my opinion of him, '74 Defender owner or not, I'd still rather spend my time with Ray Mears than Bear Grylls :D

Hi Becky, welcome to the forum :) I'm new here too! http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f20/mog-daisy-have-arrived-d-pictures-284057.html Firstly, let me apologise for this very long post which you are about to adventure into. And don't worry, you're in the Defender section, nobody will try...

I'm sure they'll do the usual trick, something along the lines of: "Due to the overwhelming feedback, we have decided to do a limited production run of 500, we'll call them 'the 2 million 500' and they will retail at £2,000,500 each, but the general public won't be able to buy them, only the...

Welcome to the forum, get yourself in the Defender section ;) Defender 90 / 110 / 130 - Land Rover Zone

Or off-roading advice? "You haven't thought this through, it just won't work.... I'm out!" *Defender engine shuts off*

I have a healthy dislike for Bear Grylls :p Ray Mears is much more up my alley :) And Theo Pathetis, wonder if the Entertainment system can now give business advice? :D

Well I guess there is only one being made and the proceeds from the auction are going to charity, makes it okay in my book ;)

Bah... Shush you :p

A new one-off, special edition Defender has just been announced, looks quite good (looks wise), all proceeds from auction going to charity. Official Land Rover page: 2 Millionth Defender Video of it being built: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0HXSuXBDco Articles: Land Rover...

They have them for the 90 and loads of other ones too! LAND ROVER DEFENDER 90 BADGE CAST ALUMINIUM | eBay

I shall now reinforce your idea of getting a Defender 90..... They're great, get one! But seriously, they will hold their value if you look after them (gain value in most cases), amazing fun to drive, you can see over walls and hedges... and other stuff too! What type of 90 you hoping...

Haha, this is long confused. Both Scottish and Irish use slightly different forms of Gaelic. Gaelic (Gaeilge) is the Irish language, Scottish also speak Scots and Scottish Gaelic (Gàidhlig) which is actually more similar to the Isle of Man language Manx (Gaelg). Little lesson for you :p...

I'll get them to check it, i'm taking it in to Gibsons in Kendal today. I would do it myself, I do have the tools, unfortunately I just don't have the time (or the weather) at the moment!

Hi welcome to the forums, Doife looks great :) I am guessing the pronunciation would be the same style as the old Irish name, Aoife? but with a D? So Defa? or Deefa? *is confused* :p So, you from Ireland originally? (asks a curious O'Gorman) :D See you in the Defender section ;)...

Hiya from West lakes, not quite as North as John S, but definitely more west coast :P
