Thanks for the above - so when you protect the underneath of the 90, do you cover it everywhere? Obviously not the engine/wheels - but the axles, bottom of the cabin, footwells etc?

Hi Anaconda, It's when he's took the top of the TD5 - Wiring harness into the injectors - Change rubber gasket I've also heard that if you have the top off to also change plastic dowels to metal ones - would this be correct? Also is there a...

Why do I have the feeling that buying this Landy I may never take the family away on holiday again! :) Also what do you think of this advice?

Would these be any good for the doors and boot? https://thomasperformance.co.uk/security/defender-90-bombproof-2-door-hinge-anti-theft-guard?srsltid=AfmBOorpGu1sMaBLP9kJKarWXMUXy_KN0uB3gat9bHSgopFNfepgX2RtA4M

And you can do that in/on the engine?

Thanks for the Phil - really insightful. Just wish I could take the top off like those guys! Thinking on - what type of wire wheel would you use? Thanks again for coming back.

Thanks for the quick feedback! So would you power wash it first to get the muck off, then after its dried go at it with a wire wheel? I've seen that some people prime and paint, is that classed as undersealing it or is there a specific way to...

Hi there, New to the Landy world and looking at my first purchase. Had a look at a Defender 90 1999 TD5 and I just wanted people opinion who are more in the know if this is just surface rust and needs a good clean? Appreciate your comments...
