New Man Cave & Defender Home

Click image to enlarge

Built with an extra-high ceiling & taller, sectional garage door to accommodate the Defender Thumbs Up

Roof goes on next week, then once the old garage is knocked down, I'll be able to get the Defender in. Defender "Puma" 2.4 110 County Utility (possibly the last of the 2.4's)

Yep, sound system important too,

It's got attic-style trusses, so I'm flooring the upper level. It's just high enough to stand in. A wee bottle of malt and a comfy chair on the radar Thumbs Up Defender "Puma" 2.4 110 County Utility (possibly the last of the 2.4's)

A wee bottle Shocked

Wait for the snow to fall; get the wood burner going, good sounds and a litre bottle of Scottish malt wine, bum on a comfy chair, glass in hand, as you gaze lovingly at your Defender all dry inside that’s paradise for you! Laughing

Lovely building that!

We are building something similar - but from green oak instead of blocks. The entrance to the parking spaces has been designed just to fit my 110 with roof rack! My blog - www.anacreinhampshire.blogspot.co.uk

Ohhh Would love something like that. Even just to be able to afford a space like that to build a plot would be nice.

Fantastic work Thumbs Up Running Restoration Thread http://www.defender2.net/forum/post323197.html#323197

Looks great Martin, jealous of the space you guys have around you!!
We are looking for a new house just now but I need somewhere with space to keep my 110, the double cab, the bowler and a Sprinter van as well as SWMBOs car so a modern housing estate like we are in now just doesn't cut it!! Sad 2014 110 2.2TDCi XS Station wagon

Jomara - how's about this! http://www.vebra.com/property/965/25228459

The croft is located approximately 1 mile up a track which is currently only passable in the sturdiest of off road capable vehicles and will no doubt require upgrading.


Perfect track to justify owning a Defender Thumbs Up
