My 110 Hard Top
Thought I would say hi... I have had my defender for a few months and been looking at a few posts and thought I should join...

My Defender will be used to enjoy some adventures with my German Shepherds, visiting various places around the UK. If I am brave enough I may even spend the odd night sleeping in the back!

So far I have sound proofed, insulated and ply lined the back with roof lining also installed. Very pleased with it so far and just a couple of bits to finish off.

Now deciding on whether to make some bigger changes such as remap, suspension and wheels (currently have the steels).

One picture attached and more to follow and I look forward to chatting...

Looks great - love the body colour (Keswick Green?) which works really well with the steel wheels and roof colour. Bet you're well chuffed?!

Has the sound proofing made a big difference?

Would love to see a pic of the ply lined back if you've got one. 2014 110 XS Utility

Looks a lovely original Defender, very nice!

Personally, I love the white wheels with the white roof. Maybe some white Wolfs? Colour code the wheel arches or just leave original, all good Thumbs Up James

Nice truck, think before you do any modifications. If you dont like it can you put it back to standard?
Other than that.... Enjoy Thumbs Up

Cheers all... I will post a few more pictures when the sun finally comes out.

I have done a couple of bits but don't want to go to mad. Immediate plan is a re-map and possibly the Twisted suspension upgrade.

Wheels is another consideration but not in any rush at the moment, albeit I do like the 18 Bowler wheels in white.

Took the dogs out for a drive today...
Having recently sound proofed, insulated and levelled the back of my 110 between the wheel arches I thought I would take the dogs out...

Great photos, although they do look to be thinking "Crikey it's a long way down" Shocked James

If only that were true! In this mad day-and-age the dogs are probably almost as much at risk of theft as the Defender. Big Cry

I did have to lift one in as she is getting a bit old... fortunately the step helped when they were climbing back down...
