Had a chance to clean mine now, 1,500 miles in and still all working laugh

It does get lots of comments and oddly picking friends up over this weekend their perception was it is more special than my old RRS. Still loving the colour too.

Is that Silicon Silver? Looks excellent cool

My recently purchased Defender. I've already had it remapped to 183bhp with a Tune + by JE Engineering, including a larger intercooler. Changed the steering wheel to a Startech and seats to heated Corbeau buckets. It was undersealed last week with Dinitrol by Pro-Tect in Buckinghamshire and hopefully now the chassis won't dissolve from the ground up.

I just can’t make my mind up about these - every day I feel differently about the look, today I’m loving them and yours looks very tidy! I have the urge to get a D180 S for my wife but I’m worried it won’t be powerful enough, thing is once the kids have been in there on the school runs it will be wrecked and I just can’t justify spending more on a bigger engine as it will break my heart!
Probably be worth trying one, I’ve had a go in a D240 and it felt great as you seem to drive at a slower more sedate pace in it so the total power is a bit irrelevant. I think the SE is the sweet spot on spec though, I don’t need massage seats and am not a fan of radar cruise so could easily do without both which is about all I found different between the spec levels as mine is a HSE.

Looks pretty good. Worth noting that Dintrol isn't considered to be the best stuff for rust protection anymore. Many LR fans are moving to Buzzweld now. I've used several of their products and I've been very impressed with the application and quality which isn't somethig I can say about all aerosols.

Hmmm using buzzweld, is this something I can do or do I need a pro to apply it?

Your 90 looks lovely

He looked to be broken down and was shouting down the phone - I was going to offer my help but his apparent mood put me off smile
