Great Read, good to see the trip went with no mechanical issues. Welcome to the 130 club.
Thanks everyone for coming along for the ride. I didn't get to drive it for a day. My first test drive was at night time and I realised I only had high beam lights. The next day I replaced the Indicator, high beam switch which came with the vehicle for obvious reasons and that fixed the problem. The lights are not too bad actually and look to have some sort of ballast attached to them. I will have to have a closer inspection.
The rear window is classic 130 and in need of some attention, The oil leak in the driveway from the power steering is getting bigger everyday! I have got some things on order to sort out the classic problems and will probably do another thread for all that stuff.
There are a few more pictures I will upload to photobucket at some stage so you will have to look through them Epic dragon and see if any are suitable. I will let you know when I get around to this.
This is my 2nd Defender 130, the last one being a 97 TDI.
First priority is to get the bar in the back for the kids seat. I have the materials but not the time at the moment. I have a bullbar lined up and will swap the lights and winch over to it at some stage.
