    The most miles out of one tank.

    Since the fuel tank is about 17.5 gallons and I get 32mpg from the disco transfer boxed 110. I think that means I could get 560 miles from a tank full. But I never run it below a quarter so I've not measured it.

    How "fast" is your defender?

    Mine will go a little faster than most due to a disco transfer box, it just takes a long time to get there .It will cruise at 70mph, but I won't drive faster because the tanker for in flight refuelling that I'd need running alongside, wouldnt be able to keep up. .

    living with the 5th gear higher ratio

    Ive a 200tdi with a disco transfer box I seriously doubt you'd need a raised 5th gear as well. With 235/85 R16 and the disco box you don't normally get into 5th until 40mph anyway..

    My roof leaks!

    No they don't , a combination of sealant and Captain Tolleys creeping crack cure, solved it for me. I had a leak by the top of the door seal. So I greased the frame and pu sealant into / on the door seal , then shut the door and left it to dry. . That fixed it.
