Default Picked up this bad b*tch yesterday :)

Hi All. First time poster here. Ordered my 2023 D130-S P300 mid-Jan and picked it up yesterday (located in the DFW area). Very excited to be jumping back in the deep end with a Rover! Last one I had was a '07 TDi Disco3 back when I lived in the land down under about 10 years ago. Loved that car to bits, but issues towards the end put me off Rover's for a while.

Anyway, looking for some opinions / thoughts on accessories folks have added to theirs, specifically roof racks, bull/roo bars, and side steps/rock sliders. I'm leaning towards the Voyager rack and rock sliders (https://voyagerracks.com/new-defender-voyager-roof-rack), any opinion on these if anyone has installed? Other options?

Longer term wanted to add a bullbar, found this one (https://newdefendermods.com/collections/barwork/products/au-spec-bullbar-winch-brushbar) but it's Aussie spec so I'll have to find out if it's compatible with the NA spec. Anyone added a bullbar to their Defender? Any other options I should consider? Disco had an ARB bar which was great, but don't think they make one for the L663.


For anyone interested, including the build options I chose and some pics + bonus Disco3 pic included . Ordered and purchased from Autobahn Land Rover in Fort Worth. Hands down best dealership experience ever. No frills, no upselling, no bs markups.

- Defender 130 S, P300
- Carpathian Grey + Black Exterior Pack + Gloss Black Signature Graphic w/contrast roof
- 19" Gloss Black rims
- Off Road Pack
- Towing Pack
- 4 zone climate
- Cold climate pack
- Front fog lights
- Solar windshield
- Heated 2nd/3rd row seats + exposed recovery eyes + ebony headlining

Awesome looking baby you have there! Very close to specs for my D90S built April 21 expected here in western North Carolina around the 5th of June.

I think the only thing missing on mine is the IDD, which is no biggy. The headlights are the standard without "Signature DRL", but I knew that at order time.

Damn most of these come with the 20s or the optional 22's. You've just helped me confirm I'm optioning the 19s if I choose to order. That looks amazing.

Enjoy!
