Is it to soon to say the 'C' word (Christmas list)


Recommended Posts

my 1989 110 V8 Truck cab was carted away yesterday to start the process of new Chassis, Maybe new Bulkhead, new Gearbox and clutch - the removal promoted my daughters to ask whether there was anything I wanted for Christmas towards the rebuild??

I was so surprised my mind was blank (again)

Any Ideas? items below £100 and stocking fillers (below £10)

Cheers

Light bar, lights, work lights, service items, seat covers, steering guard, rock sliders, mud seat rails, center console, boost gauge, volt gauge, chequer plate wing tops, hilift jack, bottle jack, that thing you've always wanted/needed in the toolbox, axle stands, ramps, decent bulbs, wheel cover and so on.

Something cosmetic/nice to have rather than service item would be better I guess?

Seat trim set, heated seats kit? Heated windscreen? Not sure how much these are for a defender, but thought maybe worth suggesting :)

Tyre INflator! I just bought a pair of Ring Automotive compressors from Amazon, £20 each, one for the 88 and one for The 109, which has a tyre that goes flat in a fortnight. All too many people these days don't have a tyre compressor, or regularly the tyre pressure in the spare!
