Spain 2001 Defender 90 Td5 SW Epsom Green
Understood Thumbs Up

Had a 110 (puma) for four years and it was brilliant. Got a TD5 90 as an off road vehicle last year and enjoyed driving it so much that I sold the 110 and now have two 90's, the TD5 and a new 2.2.

Could be me but make sure you have a good drive of a 90 first especially if it is a 2.4. I had a loan 2.4 90 for about six weeks (don't ask !!) and it was very choppy compared to the 110. The 2.2 is totally different and almost as good as the 110. I don't know what LR have done, maybe the weight of the 2.2. lump is different, but as far as I am concerned the ride and handling of the 2.2 version is far better than the 2.4.

Good luck with whatever you decide to do.

Today I fitted a genuine towbar and electrics Smile
It even has gloves and cable ties in the box. Well worth getting the genuine parts

Agree - they're really easy to fit.

I can't see your electrics (trailer socket)...have you hidden them somewhere? Defender "Puma" 2.4 110 County Utility (possibly the last of the 2.4's)

This picture was taken before I fitted the towing electrics. I decided to fit it on the towbar bracket so if I decide to remove the towbar I can just unplug it and remove it complete

2.4 XS 90s were fitted with heavy duty suspension. Mine is choppy (but less now with a winch & spool of steel cable up front, helps lower the centre of gravity as well giving a more stable feel).

Do LR put HD suspension on 2.2 90 XS? Land Rover Defenders. 67 years heritage, minimal appearance changes, still going strong all over the world. Not a fashion vehicle, but fashionable to own. Made for the needy, not the greedy. Ta ta Defender
