so now I know it’s working.
I’m familiar with the brand having owned my rr sport tdv8 and covered 175k miles.
shared use of our vogue sdv8 4.4lt beast

I nearly bought a 90 400x but decided that It would be more cost effective to go for the defender 90 3.0lt 6 cylinder hardtop.
went for the retro look, white steel wheels with white roof and eiger grey paint.
this made better sense as I was able to claim full tax relief for business use👍

so far loving it, base model with a few add ons is fine for me.
power seems pretty good as the torque is there where you need it.
no road noise even on the knobbly tyres.

was a bit surprised to see that Land Rover have literally taken the car and removed the rear seats and covered the glass side panels with metal.
door cards are still there with the door speakers etc.
im wondering if this would make it easy to remove the side metal panels if I wanted to have windows instead.
anybody got thoughts on this?
