My new TD5 Defender - very noice!

Post by chrispy »

Righto - I've been copping flack for being a Jeep owner for a while.... so here you go..... I'm now also a Land Rover owner too!

Today we picked up a '00 Defender TD5 with all the accessories under the sun fitted already.... and I mean ALL :)It's really well fitted out for remote outback travel - all except for the HF - which we have a sat phone for anyways..

Still have the two GQ's for a while though... so along with the Saabs, our yard is now officially FULL :?

Noticed the ARB compressor but no lockers? Hope you're not using it to fillup tires - it's a whimp. Good for an air bed though.

That be the same one ;)

I added a 3" mandrel bent exhaust too. :D

Very, very close to adding the cooler now, too. Have just dropped my Fender down to a 2" lift from 5" for towing. Now I want the bigger cooler.
