Hello

Hi all,

I’m new to landyzone. I’ve wanted a defender since I was a kid and have finally managed to buy my first one. A friend has pointed me in your direction so I can learn and look after it properly.

Would be grateful for any and all top tips and any advice on who to go to and who to stay away from for servicing etc in the Essex (Colchester) area.

Thanks

Welcome

Can’t help with your request not close enough to comment

Can we all see some pics though?

Enjoy the family

Hi and welcome!

+1 for pics. And get some security for it. They’re popular with thieves.

Thank you both

yep, i'd steal that - although couldn't afford to run two of them.

Where’s the best place to start?

It’s got a factory alarm and battery immobiliser which I’m guessing isn’t going to be great.

Is it a case of getting a thatcham alarm / immobiliser and a tracker. Is there anything else that can be done easily to stop people stealing it.

I’ve star reading the security posts. What would you start with?

Well that looks nice
And as others said very desirable to scumbags sadly

I like the big visible pedal guards and a tracker idea with an alarm (that somebody may take notice of)

Good luck and hope it stays safe in your hands for many miles.

Welcome to the forum

Thank you

Looks pukka mate! My advice for servicing would be stay away from everyone and do it yourself, it'll cost you a (not exactly) small fortune if you get garages to do the work on it every time!!
