2008 Defender 90 Puma 2.4 XS CSW Tonga Green

Puma 90 Hardtops, still got the plate behind front seats.

Every TD5 & TDi 90 hardtop I have seen has the backplate behind its front seats, which prevents full tiltback. Does the Puma 90 Hardtop/van still have that, or do they have the tubular frame my XS Estate 90 has?

still have it. If you want it without, then you need to go for the xc, pay the vat and big RFL...

Or cut it out yourself and put in an after market one

Thanks. One of the reasons I chose an XS was no plate & the rear view windows. I feel better about the RFL now. Just.

You can get aftermarket bulkhead removal kits. They're pretty straightforward (although you have to feel comfortable taking an angle iron to your truck). One that started out as a 2.4 TDCi 110 XS

Why thank you sir, hopefully some more updates coming soon.

Toys budget has been directed towards two wheeled things lately, so it's about time I did some more tinkering MAD COW
