Not want to put ya off, it’s just realistically what they are like plus the boot is actually quite small ya can’t just put shovels n spades quite in you’ve got to fiddle around n put them in at an angle. They are nice n more better to drive but for a commercial vehicle (our navara does the same...

Got one at work and keep having problems with the camera’s n sensors. I would say the electrical gremlins or definitely a problem. But tbf the commercial takes a hammering we use it mainly off road what it is meant to do and it just takes everything, but the price for what it is 50/50 I say...

Got any pics of the chassis or underneath, work in Retford so not that far away.

Yeah was thinking that probably best leaving it as is, n find something with the original engine in. Back to the classifieds n keep searching then ;) Cheers

Cheers guys really helped out, the 2.5na would be fine to pootle about in, also finding a good 200/300 tdi is proving difficult was just enquiring. Might just leave as is and see how it goes if it gets to the point where I want to change it. Then there’s the reversible kit which gives options...

I’ve seen an engine which suits, it’s just the fitting which I couldn’t do as I haven’t got the tools or expertise at the minute. Is it the disco 2 and the disco’s gearbox which is just a drop in.

That’s what I’m meaning just something that will have a bit more power not after being amazing just something a bit more useable. It’s just finding good specialists that can do this job as it’s just to big for me to do at moment.

What you think about the 2.5na just don’t think it will hold up for me on the motorway. Also could also do with some power steering just a tad to heavy!

Yeah 200 tdi’s seem to be like unicorns that’s why I was asking if there are some good specialists who can do the 300 swap r basically just keep looking for a decent 300tdi which is kind of impossible at the moment especially at decent money and not ridiculous :(

Hi guys, don’t exactly know where to post this so thought I would ask on here. Just contemplating a 2.5na I’ve seen, the chassis is very tidy n the bodywork is in good condition for age,the problem is the 2.5 na engine I would like a bit more pepp and the power steering would be a nice addition...

Hi guys, just asking opinions which is the best defender to start on really like I have said in a previous post I ain’t excellent on the spanner’s but can do oil changes, all servicing and other bits n bobs. This is gonna be my first defender so wanting something I can learn on but can use as my...

I’ve heard there a different kettle of fish altogether even though they are a defender on a different body, same goes with them aswell getting something decent is gonna be top dollar.

Thanks for the comments. This is what I was thinking aswell. It’s proving very hard to find a 90 or 110 that’s has been looked after around the 10k mark and have been searching for some time. Just been checking the same places but nothing really popping out are seeming decent. Anybody know if...

That would suit me as long as there proper seats. If you have the money the 90 xs is the ideal trim.

Well the 110’s seem to be dearer then the 90’s round these parts. Plus it’s getting a good un, I love the 90 (which I’m steering more towards) but it’s the seats which will have to be done n the cost of the bits whereas the 110 has got it all done. My garage doesn’t fit a 90 in so I doesn’t...
