I had a 2012 xs and had same issue with heat, left leg really cooked on commute to work, only had it over a winter but could imagine it would have been hellish in summer Can't say I had the engine rattles though

I got mine from JGS4x4 No complaints, or leaks

Lights were £220 for a full set Grille was £195 but this included the lamp guards, which I ended up not using. I ended up refurbish the originals. Think the grille on its own was £140 3d landrover lettering was £17 I removed the old defender badge from below the bonnet and smoothed and...

Rockslides are gone, ebay. Would have liked to have offered them for sale here but not allowed to post for sale ads as still a new member????? Pity as both sets sold for only £80 each Thanks for all the kind compliments about the paint job, turns heads everywhere....

Cheers guys! Guess what I'm doing Saturday....

I have an oil leak... and want to at least identify where its coming from. Appears to be from the top of the engine, maybe rocker cover gasket area? maybe injector rail area?? Anyway there is a load of oil laden gunk all over the block that I want to remove, cant see anyway of getting it...

Going ahead with a intercooler upgrade and wondered if anyone had advice, pros/con's on the Allard or Allisport uprated Intercoolers. Looking for improved driveability and low end torque, its a defender so I know its never going to be quick and I dont need it to be... Thoughts and...

Finally some pics aftr the Light and grille upgrade. In the n I decided against the RDX light surround that match the grille, it left a gap you could see into the headlight cowl, plus the LED lamps (bought from same company) didnt interface with them very well at all, even though they assured...

cheers!

Result! Stereo was not ground properly... Did a bodge to get some sounds, but where should it be ground to, there is a wire there but I cant see where it goes to as its part of a fiairly tightly wound loom There is a fuse in the cigar lighter and power getting to back of the unit itself...

OK I need to point out now that electrics arent my thing...:p But armed with a multi meter, some electrical tape and false confidence gained after successfully DIY installing my LED lights.... I'm prepared to give it a go. Since the day I got it my landy, the radio, fog lights and cigar...

Towing duties, weekend runs to the tip, taking dog to woods etc... Got other cars for daily commute. Not really into the off-roading or green landing.... Though I did get a bit lost tonight in deepest darkest Perthshire and sat nav took me down a forest lane that wouldn't look out of place in...

Yes, very nice job, he went the extra mile for me. Ended up doing a bit of wax oiling where there was a little overspray underneath plus changed out windscreen and seals etc, replaced all the wheel arch spat fixings, front bumper and rear crossmember in gloss black etc... all additional to what...

Just collected landy, very happy indeed. Heres a few pics of it before I fit the new RDX grille/trim/LED lamps etc

Thanks guys Will certainly be doing the fuel settings tweak when I get the defender back from paint Steve

Yes, 1500 all in. Also changing out my windscreen rubbers for me... He's very well respected in the area and typically charges 2k to 2.5k for a full top class job but I explained to him that I didn't need the level of detail that he'd normally go to, told him not to bother with filling in...

Hi, looking to try and improve power (torque mainly) on my 300tdi, really just to make it better to drive on a daily basis. The only thing I can see out there is fitting an uprated intercooler and tweaking fuel pump etc… Sounds like about £500… What else can I do thats worthwhile...

He's removed loads of the masking so he could roll it out of the spray booth… There's no overspray :)

£1500

Heres some progress shots of the respray... Hopefully be finished sometime next week and well on its way to becoming another urban'ish defender Before.... Some mods done but Pre Paint... In Paint.... Getting painted in Epsom Green...
