Thread: Tanami Defenders

I will be getting new decals done the cost is not cheap but seeing these vehicles are rare I think it is worth the investment.

Land rover Australia have some of these parts in stock, however they want way over the top for them so I simply put it to them, do they want to sell the stock at a reduced cost or leave them on the shelf for ever. Well they want to leave them on the shelf for ever.

Land Rover Australia claimed 100-150 as posted earlier.
Seems they may have been a dealer conversion i.e. send out the decals etc. and put together as required. LR figures may mean 150 kits sent out but possibly not all turned into Tanami's.

Let's stay with the idea of just 30 because it makes mine potentially worth more

All the accessories/decals were fitted by Cartech prior to delivery to the dealer. There may have been the odd shortage which meant that the dealer might have fitted, say, the roofrack but otherwise they came to the dealer as a complete Tanami.
IIRC, the bonnet tools were sent to the dealer separate from the car & fitted at sale.
