Mine's Tonga, but that Firenza is some colour - not my style, exactly, but love it on other people's trucks!  |

When we started overlanding we used to bring spare diffs, half shafts, you name it. Never used a damn thing fixing my own truck, though we helped a ... |

| TBH I love both - the Defender is iconic, fun, etc... but it is horribly built, unreliable and expensive. Producing a 20k + vehicle in the late 2000s/2010s that rust within the first few years of manu ... |

| Aye - but they're built properly and will likely survive the apocalypse - we have a 1997 with nearly 200,000 miles - original engine and box, very little rust, chassis perfect. They just keep going. S ... |

| Nice truck, though confused by the 2006/300 Tdi spec - was this a special build or an export model? Surely would have been on a 5 by then? Or am I being dim? |

Ah, okay, get you - if its purely aesthetics, I guess I understand. Though at £500 a pair, that is expensive bling. Each to their own I guess!
