Thought I’d better introduce myself , I’m mark from Bristol, just bought an 88 defender 90 , ex water board , with a 300tdi newly fitted , all seems good but having driven and restored air cooled vw’s for 30 odd years I know how things go , I’m a maintenance engineer at portbury docks so hopefully my background there will help , I’ve got dogs and horses so transport and towing a horse box is the main reason for the purchase but as it was my wife’s idea to get one , we currently have a Tiguan that barely tows , I’m looking forward to getting my hands dirty on something different, to me ,
 
You’re right , both cost money but I believe in enjoying life and always encourage my family to do the same , 2 dogs , 2 horses may cost a lot but memories are priceless

Thanks guys , only picked it up today , I’ve refitted one of the rears seats already , it was in the wrong place , couple of new bolts in the top rear door hinge , couple of rivets missing as well , I think the steering box needs adjusting , so that’s Sunday’s job as well as adapting the dog guard that came with it , loving it so far
 
Thanks for all the welcomes , quick question though , how do I upload more photos ? I’d like to put some up in members rides

Could anyone help me get a code on the colour of my defender ? White obviously but can’t work out which , no sticker on the body anywhere
Thanks

Increase the security. They're too easily stolen and often are.

Definitely, you will end up doing improvements and repairs just so the boostard who pinches does not have to. Get a good security system on it or garage it at times when it is not used if you can .
