    Simba... My Defender 90

    Hi guys, so I promised a load of you an updated photo of my 1986 ex RAF 90 "Simba" quite a while back. I was out walking the dog just yesterday and remembered to get a shot so here you go... my beautiful baby Simba. Comments, feedback and general banter welcome as always ;)

    Nothing like fresh oil drips in the morning!

    Hi guys, Simba 90/Ben here. I'm not really new, I've been on Landyzone for a while now buuuuuutttt I haven't annoyed you all for absolutely ages. I'm currently at university in London, so my ex MOD 90 has been SORNED off and is sitting around waiting for me to graduate. It's horrible not...

    Wolf Rims fresh out of the oven!

    Because I'm a bit OCD like that. I couldn't live knowing that only half the rim was painted, it'd drive me crazy. If you're going to do something, do it properly :amen:

    Wolf Rims fresh out of the oven!

    Storm 99 - "Let me know how you get on if you win them...and take photos b4 and after!!" Hello avid readers ;) Ok so I was bored today and decided to get my wolf rims done. I'd just had a set of 4 delivered which I won on fleabay for a very reasonable price. They are old MOD rims which were...

    Big boy tyres... help please :D

    I heard if you want anything more than a 235, you need to start changing wheel arches etc. Can't I just whap some 255's or 265's on some wolf rims?

    Big boy tyres... help please :D

    I don't really mind. I just need some good offroading tyres because I've currently got the thin MOD road tyres on. I'd get stuck on slightly warm tarmac with those crappers. I've read all of the reviews for the BFG's and they seem to be highly reccommended all round? Thanks guys, wish everyone...

    Big boy tyres... help please :D

    Hmmmm, what an odd thing to suggest?! As it doesn't sound at all sinister I think I'll give it a go ;) You know anything about heights and width storm?

    Big boy tyres... help please :D

    Ok here's the deal: I want a full set of the BF Goodrich Mud-Terrain T/A tyres and some black wolf rims for my 90. Anyone know where I can get the best deal on these items and exactly what specs I'd want? I have no idea what width or height they should be. If you don't mind helping out a noob...

    And I thought everyone got exiled TO Stockport! :P Thanks for that, I'll leave things as they are for now and stick to the simple stuff (A bars, security locks and aesthetics). I'll do a bit of work on the interior and try and get a radio/speakers put in along with a new dash. I'll have a...

    Hahah oh dear, they do very much look like stockings! :S However, I must inform you that: 1) That's not me in the photo, but a good friend 2) I believe they were wrinkled jeans 3) I'm ripping the sh*t out of him from now on in Thanks for the ideas and tips guys (anyone want to elaborate on...

    Storm, you quite clearly just want an sh*t-funny review on here in a couple of weeks with me explaining how I accidentally fixed my fridge-freezer and not a 200 Tdi into my beautiful 90! I swear if I attempt it, I'll mess everything up. Turn the heater on and I'll get an injection of diesel in...

    South Manchester ;) I don't know, I've not been to any pay n' plays yet but I really want to see what's about. If anyone fancies showing a n00b some of the childrens play areas sometime, I'd be well up for that! Hopefully I'll be as retarde..... incredibly knowledgeable as the real boffins on...

    Like I said, I confuse wheels with bonnets :P I have no idea but a friend of mine said it's got really good tyres but it would be worth putting them on some wolf rims? Have a look at the photos... are they heavy duty? :)

    :dnfnoob: Let's all point and laugh at the city-boy n00b... But in my defence I did clearly state that "I'm more than likely to confuse an engine for a windscreen wiper" in my introduction post :P Thanks for the info/friendly banter guys. Anyone else fancy jumping in here? (with useful...
