I'm looking for some advice on winches.

I recently bought a Land Rover Defender and plan on doing some off roading over the next few months. But i need to get a winch fittted to it. After doing a little research online it's pretty overwhelming the choices and varietys out there.

I need something reliable but hoping not to pay too much for it. The old conundrum.

My defender is a 2004 2.5l Diesel so it's going to need something pretty strong.

Has anyone looked into anything like this recently?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks

Agree about needing one as a must if you go solo. Its saved me countless times.

Having a stuck landy 30 miles from home with no phone signal as the sun sets is no fun. At all.
Agreed Hainey. I've been in a couple of hairy situations previously.
Thankfully I wasn't out on my own at the time.

Thanks for all the advice folks.
