Hi,
my name is Falk and I just bought myself a Land Rover 110.
A life-long dream had since my childhood when I was watching Born Free on TV and thought I want one of these vehicles. In between I was (or still am) into my Vespa scooters while I was at university in Berlin, Germany (which is also where I was born and lived for the most part of my first 35 years. I later got into classic Mini's but the idea of the Land Rover never faded. So here I am now owning one after I just turned 50.
Living in the UK now, Birmingham area, and just picked up my 110 yesterday. Bit of a rat but technically it seemed fine as far as i could tell. Fully aware of the tools issue (that is that you should own lots of them) and hope to meet and find people and knowledge and the odd banter.
Looks like a nice place here. :)

Edit: Just seeing that my car is attached twice. Apologies, need to get the hang of how everything works here... Anyway the photo is actually from yesterday when we picked up the car. In the background you see my daily drive with the spare roof on its roof...

Welcome.
Make sure it’s well secured.
Did the roof make it back(on your profile photo)?
Plenty of members round Birmingham ;)
Hi, It came with a battery cut off switch and removable key and i am thinking of getting one of these steering wheel bar thingies, hoping that this will deter sufficiently. Fully aware that if someone really wants it, they'll get it anyway... Maybe a tracker is an option as well...
Regarding the roof, yes, that is on my daily drive in the picture. Got the 2nd roof for free with the 110 as the current roof has a 750mm x 750mm'ish hole in it as someone used the car for hunting... ^^
 
Hello and welcome from me too;)
Google disklok , I think it's spelt, and get one of them. The bar type can be removed easily, very easily.
A search on here will bring up more ideas.
Pedal locks and gearlever locks are available too and are defender specific.
 
explain that to my wife... :D

Errr no:oops:

In fact I will take the easy option ............. that’s a bit tatty mate you need to do something about that:D

As far as security I like the pedal locks as some of them I believe actually push the brake pedal so making it harder to tow.
