Everyone seems to think i should "fire and ice" it...

I guess it looks good and might add to the value.

Not sure about adding value. Even if you paint it perfectly in the Fire and Ice tones, it will always remain a Fire and Ice lookalike. Not sure that there is any added value for that.
But, if this is what YOU like (forget about what "Everyone" thinks) GO FOR IT Thumbs Up You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation.

So whats the difference with a fire and ice model apart from a few bits bolted on and a paint job?

You canīt be serious Bpman, previous owner painted like this and put a big amount of stickers all around Evil or Very Mad

Adiep wait to install the tyres and wheels, then you will change your mind on colour, hopefully you have to go through MOT and no ITV (ITV stand for "Holy inquisition").

Cheers

Luismi - I really like your colour scheme - the red roof really sets off the truck ! Let's see a better photo ?

I dunno... maybe i can respray that iridescent white :-/
