    ...right arms so tanned? Ill let you into a secret, the steering wheels in Defenders are about 2 inchs away from the drivers side window. So nearly all defender drivers have to drive with the window down and their arm sticking out. I cant drive past one now without looking at the crazy...

The sound is coming from the very front of the car, so im guessing (i cant really see much from above or below) that the manifold has gone or blown a hole in itself, or...

    Visit to a garage
