    Suspension height,

    Hi, Have just bought my first defender, after many series 2’s and 3’s. Where can I find the standard ride hight. I’m trying to work out whether it has had a 2 inch lift. It’s a 200 Tdi 90. Thanks in advance.

    Parts

    Sounds like a bit of ‘luck of the draw’ haha. Looks like OEM spec for anything important, like things that make you go and stop. Anything else at your own risk. Thanks everyone.

    Young insurance

    We looked at the black boxes, but he works early’s and lates which he would get penalised for and he’s also in the St Johns so he can be out late with that as well. It’s an absolute nightmare. He even called the NFU for a quote, but they said we didn’t live in a rural area. We live next door to...

    Young insurance

    Hi all, Since I’ve gotten back into my Lannys, my son has started to look for one. He’s always wanted one as he used to help my with my old series 3. He was looking at getting a td4 freelander but we can’t find anyone who will even look at insurance as he has only passed his test this summer...
