2008 Defender 90 Puma 2.4 HT Stornoway Grey

Thanks, I'll try again when her car is due to go back....I'd like a G Class which would have approval so we'll see. Not due to change until autumn next year.

Have been busy again with the Defender. Recently fitted 16'' Twisted Sport alloys (need a spare!), the DRL front bumper, a Twisted steering guard, full set of 95mm Perei rear led lights and swapped the front led side/indicator lights to standard with clear indicators. Have some Focal ES100K front components to fit but I am missing the grills/surrounds for the tweeters which is proving an issue to find replacements

Next on the list is sorting the suspension and brakes. Undecided between Fox or the Twisted set up. Brakes wise probably braided hoses, new fluid and grooved discs/uprated pads.

Posted these on another thread, but some latest pics. Next plan is for new shocks/springs, either Twisted set up or Fox/Alive, undecided yet. Also planning on a double din conversion and leather dash sections and some matching Recaros/new cubby. Defender is getting used a bit more recently as another 5-6 month wait for new car at least having ordered in July last year

Done a few more jobs to the Defender over the last few months. Added new Twisted wing top/side vent grills. Had leather dash tops and grab handles fitted in black leather with oxblood stitching. Finally a double din conversion with rear camera.

Next up is a new Mota-Lita steering wheel and cubby box with oxblood stitching again with matching seat belts in oxblood. Final interior job will be alcantara headlining/a pillar trims and black leather Recaros/full carpet set.

Long term plans possibly LT1/LS3 conversion. Watch this space.
