130 Advice
Planning on changing the D4 back to a Defender later this year and I’m thinking 130……however I’ve only ever owned a XS station wagons and I have a few questions regarding what the 130 comes with:

What I’ve spec’d up so far:

130 DCHCPU in Keswick Green
Comfort Pack
Cold Pack
Exterior Pack
Cloth Seats
Cubby Box
Air Con
Towbar and Electrics

(all in all this comes in £400 less than a 110 XS SW)

Questions:

1. Carpet or Rubber Matting as standard? - any pictures of the interior.
2. Radio – I’d probably prefer a flip out DVD/Nav jobby, however does the standard car come prepped for radio and speakers with all wires in place or is it just easier to order the Comfort pack with the radio included?
3. Is the cargo area cover standard or an extra?
4. AFN hardtops – I’ve emailed Daams4X4 but haven’t had a reply, Mick/AndrewS what sort of price did you pay for yours?

Any other advice on what options are good/bad most welcome.

Thanks in advance as the dealerships aint up to much here in Helmand!

I have that spec just went for every extra there was but no radio as wanted one with Bluetooth and iPod all wires are there , no carpet rubber matting standard interior is as the others.
The pick up comes with a canvas cover as standard . My top cost £2,500 there are different variations of the top www.afn.pt
We have a D4 as well but I prefer to drive the 130. It's the way to go Thumbs Up
Don't know what's up with AFN website but ring Daams up they speak good English.

ABS/TC would be a good option, i believe its in the pipeline. Cheers

Don't miss ABS or TC personally think it's a bit of a gimmick having been in a
muddy field the other week with various land rovers all you need is a big right foot. Whistle

I was speaking to some of the land rover instructors today and under a new law being phased in they have to come with abs and tc as standard and at the end of this year you will no longer beable to buy station wagons Sad

This may be true, however Land Rover instructors don't get given exclusive info, they are no different to me or you as far as Land rover are concerned. 130's have feeling's as well you know Smile

Aren't they all classed as commercials now though? If you couldn't get a station wagon then you wouldn't be able to get a hard top?

As I have never ordered without a radio I would not know, chances are the wiring will be there, both my 130's have the wiring for rear wiper etc

3. Is the cargo area cover standard or an extra? Now an extra

4. AFN hardtops – I’ve emailed Daams4X4 but haven’t had a reply, Mick/AndrewS what sort of price did you pay for yours? Mine was £1,400 inc Vat Call Daams and ask for Toine pronounced Thion  130's have feeling's as well you know Smile
