Great shots congrats.

I'd love that sort of thing. A bit far from here sadly.
they are the factory Warn 10-S Platimum winches…I asked. I have the factory AU Bullbar and factory winch on my 110…btw I did the install myself

A factory installed winch and bar work would be great. That's cool that all the new Trophys get it that way. I can say with some confidence that the work involved for the roo-bar and winch installation would far exceed my meager capabilities.

Last year Trophy only got the winch cradle I believe. Maybe I'm wrong there. There is one round here owned by a restaurant owner. We eat there a bit and it's always sat outside, shiny as a new penny, its Lo-range gathering cobwebs and nary a spec of dirt to be seen. Makes me a wee bit sad. No winch on it. (MY 22)

Don't get me wrong. I'd love both on my rig but I don' get into the tough stuff enough to justify having a winch and there's not really much wildlife on the roads around here. I've never had any close calls. My roo-bar on my old beater Aussie Holden Jackaroo got some action when I lived in Queensland. There it's a must-have feature on any vehicle you plan driving at night.

Great pics and fun !

Interesting that the 90 trophy front fender wrap is different than last year's trophy front fender wrap! (doesn't go all the way to the texture plate on the hood and also covers the little rectangle under the headlamp). I think it would be so cool to to wrap my black Disco 2 in this 2021/2022 Trophy livery... working on sourcing the color.

Hot wife, MattF! Well done (assuming she's not BSC)!

Is she the Trophy Wife?

The Raleigh LR dealer had their trophy model on the show floor,. looks great. Hoping to do some of the mods like the winch. Probably going to do the lucky 8 rock sliders though, definitely need something for the short people in my house, it's a loong drop for the 5'4" and under crowd, and the front passenger seat doesn't have a good grab bar for that height, even in access mode
