Hello! from an Isle of Wight member

[TheRealPlank]

Hi all,
I'm a frequent reader, and land rover enthusiast since birth. My dad's had land rovers my entire life; all series ones, the latest converted to a V8 from a rangie.

I've been going to trails for years, watching my dad compete, and sitting co-pilot when it wasn't too dangerous for young'ens. I was always fascinated with the coil springs and the look of defenders, and the incredible places they where able to get to!
I've been a proud owner of a defender for just over a year now - and it's everything I'd dreamed of!
She's great fun to drive, on and off road. Although the latter is a hell of a lot more fun Take a look at some of the trail pics from my club - mines got blue series 3 doors on it. And in the earlier pictures she's sporting white doors with a tyre tread sticker up the side... https://www.flickr.com/groups/iow4x4club/ don't laugh to hard at the goofy driving faces I'm pulling haha.

I've had a few issues with her, but none that I've not been able to overcome. Just gotta start saving up now, to get her all fancy new bits.

Out if interest, I live on the Isle of Wight, and was wondering if there are any members on here?

Hello mate, I've just been to the Isle of Wight for a few days and there seemed loads of defenders on the island. More than here in Essex.
So I suspect there will be a few owners from the island on here.

Lots of farmers down here!
And you need one, only gotta look at our roads to see that! haha

What did you come down for, if you don't mind me asking?
