Smego Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 The guy who makes these would be happy to design one for a 110 if I can get him 4 customers (needs at least that to make it worth while, hopefully would come in at less than the disco one around £140 each and if your local to me (Surrey Hampshire) so he can send all 4 together they would only cost about £150 each DELIVERED! Having seen one on a disco and previously has the southdown one on my rangie I can vouch for the build quality too, comes with detachable tow bar it is also possible to attach recover strops to the massive cross bolts although Ian did say he would make them with 2 built in recovery points as most people want them. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/land-rover-discovery-tank-guard-removable-tow-bar-/110643077467?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item19c2d7615b Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cackshifter Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Thanks, Smego. OK I agree even if it's unpainted I would probably have left the planet long before it has completely reverted to ore. I just wondered. Nigel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smego Posted February 9, 2011 Author Share Posted February 9, 2011 Well peoplke if I can get one more person to say yay and front the money he will do it! Come on guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JST Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 personally i would buy from the guy who did the original design on them, it may be more but you get that Southdown reputation and its good to put something back to those that developed these products for us.

Smego Posted February 10, 2011 Author Share Posted February 10, 2011 Yes easy to say if you are load but I cannot afford a southdown one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JST Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 well Smego, we haven't met but i can see we differ on alot of things, at least we concur on buying decent vehicles,i just like to continue the theme and put proven kit onto mine that has a reputation and support the firms that invest in providing bits for our needs. Each to their own, you carry on with your route if thats what makes you happier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
