What Defender are you selling?

07 90 County Truck Cab in Stornoway, 27,000 miles, one owner from new.

I'm just in the middle of giving it a birthday - a full day of washing, polishing, waxing and general tidying before I put it up for sale next week (has to go in for the recall on the gearbox seal first). Looking for a 1999-2001 Td5 Disco to replace it as we need something bigger and 110s are silly money. Then I'll be getting rid of my D3 and looking for an 08 FL2 for me.

54 Freelander modded for mud
2008 D3 SE
2010 90 XS SW
1978 88 Series 3 undergoing surgery with a new owner
2007 90 County Truck Cab - gone
2006 D3 SE - gone
2004 Freelander Sport - gay
1999 Disco V8 ES rotted to bits

RE Picture above a few:

Yes and fitting seems less than perfect as the brackets seem to be overlapping the edge of the bumper. Grille may have been cut too. XGT's are very deep indeed.

Nope the overlap is an OEM LR bracket cover (they do that) and the Grill was not harmed in any way

Agree the XGT is deep but back in 2007 it was not availble

Ken,

Is the White D3 yours then?

Gary

PS: I have had the L:R Brackets on a few D3's and the front normally sits flush with the bumper....

Do you know what they are called?

I had the legal issue when looking for an A Bar and mine is FULLY ROAD LEGAL. If not Euro type approved it cannot be fitted on a 2006 D3 (Legally)
