    2015 Defender 90 hardtop new shape mats query?

    Hi, traded in my old Defender for a new 90 hardtop and popped to get a load space mat and front rubber mats, but was told they didn't have any in yet, as the 2015 90 HT is different shape to the older Puma models? Apparently the rear wheel arch boxes in the back are different, and front...

    What have you done to your Landie today.

    Today I washed my car, even cleaned the windows inside... That's when the rear view mirror fell off and refuses to go back on! FFS!! There looks to be a small spring and catch that holds it in place and the spring is solid, I'm not sure how the mirror has stayed on this long. Trip to Paddock...

    2.2/2.4 is there any real difference

    I've also been to test a new 2.2 this week, and I didn't like it as much as the 2.4, the sales guy said the engine size on the new ones was smaller as they produced lower emissions. Sorry I don't know the technical bit to your question but I'm also interested in what the guru's on here think! X

    Waxoyl - undersealing, best price/service , testimonials

    Hi, I had mine waxoyl treated at Nene when I bought it, they steam cleaned it, let it dry out, then treated, it's lasted ages! It took a couple of days for the drying out properly, and it wasn't cheap but it was worth it at the time. I would like to do myself next time if I could, as it's not...

    90 or 110 which is best for towing?

    I prefer a 90 for towing, and it's very stable and has a much smaller turner circle , which when reversing with a trailer on is really noticeable. mine pulls an Ifor Williams trailer with 2 horses in fine across any muddy field and up and down steep hills no probs. you would get more storage...

    Seen a Landy for sale with an observation hatch in the roof, any ideas?

    Spare wheel, where should it live?

    Hi my spare wheel is on the back door of my 90 station wagon. it's a bit rattley and also my back door is starting not to shut very well, which I think may be due to the weight of the wheel (but it may not be!) what are my options for the spare? I've fitted AllTerrain tyres onto Silverline...

    Hi all, my TD5 headlamps seem really dim, and yes this after I've wiped the mud off! Would brighter bulbs help or should I go for a new headlamp kit and which one? Also thinking of adding a external led roof strip, and some spots, can anyone recommend anything? Thanks Lu

    Security Devices

    Looking for some security for my new Landy, reading all these threads disc lock and pedal locks seem useful, anything new on the market that anyone's spotted? A big tiger inside might just work, but it may scuff my seats a bit and leave a bit of a smell!

    Does this tow bar seem extraordinarily low?

    Having towed lots of different horse trailers it can make a huge difference to towing if you can get it about level, so whilst it doesn't look normal its most likely be done to fit a certain type of trailer/carvan. My personal choice for towing is a Witter tow bar,which are fab but not the...
