Defender airbags???
Gentlemen, just had a friendly bet with the MOT tester… Is there such a thing as a Defender classic with an airbag in the steering wheel? He’s adamant they came in towards the end of their build life so circa 2014ish?

I always tell passengers that I don't have airbags although in an emergency there is a balloon in the glove box, but they have to be quick! Peter
