You're on the right way, with doorhandle and release off the card is only fixed with these easy to break plastic things. Work your way carefully all round with a very big screwdriver or better card removel tool. Did mine without problems. Undo the wiper arm first and then unscrew the engine...

In my opinion there is nothing wrong with the Defender for the way, the worse prob is Switzerland. Quite expensive place to be. Go to Austria if you want to see the alps and use the money for the fuel.

Like all this cars with the green patch, get one and live with the gadgets. can`t be worse than a Freelander

I`d think a proper Service, new ball joints and heavy duty steering and track rod would be a starting point. Underbody protection, a good suspension upgrade and slightly bigger tyres on steel wheel would be my way.
