    Guess what i saw today- Now with official pics page 3

    I was waiting for stacey at the gym this arvo and still had a half hour to kill so i headed up to zig zag for a bit of a quick play and came to a set of cross roads and guess what i saw. 5 brand new defenders, 3 110's and 2 130's. the 130's were the first in the country and had only just had the tray made up for them. The 130 looks awsome. It was the official press launch, all of them were loaded up with journos and photographers, i asked a few and they commented on being impressed by them.

    I must say, even though not much has changed i really liked them today, maybe it was that colour.

    Nice find. Pictures without having to be asked as well!

    And I too love those 130's. Wish the 110's came with those nice wolf rims as well. They make them look tougher than the alloys (I say anyway).

    yeah mate i am still here, just havent had much time at the moment, every weekend has been packed with something or another and stacey has needed the computer a fair bit to do uni work, the rest of the time i am on my forum or updating the site.

    Everyone thinks i am a looser, they cant understand how exciting it is to be cruising along in the bush thinking you have the place to yourself, being mid week people are rarely up there, and then having 5 new land rovers come across in front of you. it was a shock to say the least. and there was no way in hell they were getting away without me taking some photos, i followed them till they stopped got out snapped the pics and headed off. I didnt have much time to chat but talked to one of the photographers and he said it was great, and he was having a heap of fun. They were coming back on thursday they said so if anyone is off work and wants a drive go up to zig zag and hang around till you run into them. matt

    THIS IS TEASING ME!

    Five weeks to go and every other thread I open has a Stornoway Grey 110 in it.

    Interesting they have body coloured roofs, I thought the new ones were white.
