Collected new Defender today

[billywhizzzzzz]

Finally - my new Defender arrived today. The spec and colour rather divides people, but I'm still not convinced metallic paint and alloys belong on a Defender!

Anyway, it's glorious, and will keep a series 11a and a 300tdi company.

One small thing that I forgot to ask the dealer - presumably running in is a thing of the past?

That's lovely!

Love the colour, a slightly modern twist on a classic.

Lovely colour but lovelier wheels

Thats exactly what I was about to write!!

My dream Defender is a double cab with a van back end. Were the wolf wheels a dealer option or did you buy those separately?

Excellent colour choice.

I WILL own a Defender one day!!

[kinghottinger]

Very nice. I am considering the same but with a black roof and dark Dotz Dakar steelies.

Many thanks everyone for nice comments - yes, Wolf rims were dealer option - spec is as:

Base spec, wind up windows and no aircon
Body Coloured Roof and Arches
Rubber Mats
Cloth Heated Seats
Heated windscreen
Under body protection bar
Side Steps
Bluetooth Radio
Towing Pack
Wolf Wheels with Michelin Wrangler MT/R

Had it all wax injected today. Feels too good to use now! A few more pics...

Love it.A proper anti-bling defender.

[Martin_M]

Nice - is it an everyday car?

[anonymous-user]

When do the SWEB decals go on?

[PGM]

Tremendous!

We had a customer put those wheels on a 110 XS S/W which we had colour coded to Keswick Green to match the body.

Looked awesome.

[David87]

That's absolutely fantastic!

[Wacky Racer]

Very nice.

Should hold it's value very well.

Agreed, and far cooler than anything from Twisted IMHO.

[EdJ]

That is absolutely beautiful. Love the colour. Congratulations!

[rustandoil]

Very nice indeed!
Any plans on mods? or leave it alone

Like it - classic and understated. Definitely in the original spirit of the Defender.

I have a 110 UW on order as well but you could describe my car as "same same but different" (a bit more 'bling' I'm afraid)
