From your description it Sounds like injectors , also don’t use easy start , horrible stuff

As with most stuff you get what you pay for , spend wisely or invest in a trickle charger

Want one

Just to add that I love the rat look , or an earned patina

Not having a dig at the OP but fake patina is horrible , fake vinyl wrap patina is even worse . I would think a sympathetic respray of the doors and bulkhead would be much better , you could even flat them back to the desired fade ?

Funny ain’t it , what some people like and others don’t and no ,I’m not defending it but somebody has stuck all that stuff on there , stood back and presumably thought “perfect” 🤪 I’ve seen pictures of it before and I’m guessing it’s just a show motor with every single accessory possible glued on to show what a particular firm make or stick but Jesus it’s fugly

Indeed 🤢🤮

Yes is the short and simple answer

I have been informed today of a well known local Land Rover thief having had a visit from a few fed up locals , apparently bones were broken ! I won’t give names or locations but I was glad to hear it .

Sweet

They really shouldn’t be selling vehicles on the evidence of that one 😬

I’ve scrapped 2 like that 🤢 Obviously they weren’t that good but still !

Hi Keith , as far as I’m concerned you can’t go wrong with a set of BF Goodrich all terrain’s , standard fitment is 235/85/16 but you can go wider, they will get you to 99% of the places you will ever want or need to go .

We all know Land Rover has lost its way regarding REAL off roaders. As capable as the current models are off road they are not reliable enough in a real world ,continuous off road situation, Christ they’re not reliable enough in a real world ON road situation! Toyota still make a no frills proper off roader , Land Rover Dont .

Be it good or bad you can be damn sure I won’t be able to afford a new Defender so I’m very “meh” on the whole thing and if it’s anything like the rest of the current Land Rover range ,which is very likely , then I wouldn’t want one anyway . Just my two bit opinion .
