New defenders 90sw Tamar and Firenze
My sister and I recently collected out Defenders; one Firenze Red XS and one Tamar Base spec with Off Road Pack, front mudflaps and radio.

Impressed with dealership so far - Pentland Land Rover, Perth. Reasonable discount, although product knowledge not quite 100%.

Previously I had only seen Firenze Red on evoques, but it looks much better on the slab sides of the Defender, especially in bright light.

double excellent Thumbs Up Thumbs Up



firenza would be 'enhanced' with black grille and light surrounds in my own personal opinion, but still looks awesome as is!

i seriously want to persuade my dad to order a new '15 plate 110 in firenze red! they both look epic, blue suits the lower spec IMO, firenze red (as said above) looks great with some extra black too,

very luck pair, you two! Cheers, David

A very nice pair. Why do a/c models always look to have droopy headlamp surrounds? Mine looks the same.

Loving the Tamar Blue with wolf wheels - very retro!

Know what you mean about a droopy front end Embarassed - fitting the Entreq light surrounds seemed to hide the problem on mine (may look good on Firenze?):

Yes, I know it would have been cheaper to just adjust the wings... Whistle Very Happy

I agree with the black and red combo; black lamp guards would set off the front nicely, but I'm not sure about the black lamp surrounds/black radiator grill though. I like the entreq surrounds for the retro look on the keswick.

The lamp guards would definitely accentuate the droopy wings. I noticed the wings right away, but thought I'd put it on the back burner till the first service rather than spoiling the hand over of the two vehicles by grumbling - it was my sister's first new car purchase after all. I'm sure I read on here about getting the wings re-aligned under warranty.

The droopy wings on our 110:

Is this an easy fix?
