By all means get a Defender. If you get a good one, you'll be happy. If you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.

Are you going traditional or something more radical.
I have only seen 101's once, and there was two, I was smitten

SubscriberBeing a 16" rim, anything big enough is usually costly... A few of us run Michelin XZL's (255/100 R16's).. Costly and rare as chooks teeth.. (Needed to keep my projectile on the road!). Several run widened 16" rims with large mud biased tyres.. Some run the original bar grips.. (Far from ideal).. Its all according to how you want it to look.. When the XZL's wear out (if I still have the 101), I will be thinking along the lines of a rim change up to 19.5" truck rims and bespoke centers, similar to the OKA's. Heres a pic of roughly what I was thinking..
