Congrats on the purchase, does the defender ready have the twisted map? I really would recommend elsewhere, and seeing you've already been speaking to Gary @ alive that would be my choice. (which it was and can't recommend him enough)

Yes sorry I should have explained. It already has the map on it and I've already had a conversation with Gary about it. I'm not sure who will have created it for Twisted though, I have tried to research that this weekend but not had any success.
Our plan is to get Gary to do a new map for it. |

Well that's a good question.
It was going into the bodyshop for some light guards to be removed, apparently the way they were fitted meant some bodywork is needed. It then has to go and have the chassis treated and then back to the SMC workshop for other bits and bobs doing. I'm guessing and it's a real guess that probably there will be a days work in the workshop? That being the Wheels, DRL Bumper, Privacy Glass and LED's. I think it also is awaiting a new registration from DVLA as it had a private plate on it, so goodness knows how long that will take? I'm hoping that perhaps next Saturday we are taking the trip up to Chester. |

![]() You know the chances of this thing seeing off road action are probably quite slim. |

I've just come in from 40 odd miles of laning around Marlborough and the plain... not a scratch in sight!
(plenty of dirt though that'll need washing off) |

O/T sorry Catherine...
@ Walfy... Well, I had a job in town, then one kinda in Marlborough, so it would have been rude not to grab a costa then bimble through Savernake and across the areas. Lots of twits playing in the hole by the knife edge in the CCDA, chavv'd up disco's etc. Still a few green people milling about too, some MAN's and rovers. in all I only did 37 miles... that's from my house and back, so not a huge amount achieved, but the sky was nice and clear and the scenery nice, so all was well. Enjoying a G&T now.... work phone turned off... ![]() |

Nice. But be careful..... You'll have the forum fashion police on your tail for not conforming to the "true" meaning of a defender.... Can't be shiny or blingy.... Must be utilitarian!

I like it except the mirrors.
![]() Like the tyre compromise, bigger alloys but ATR type tread and not slicks. |
