Thread: The new 110 is finally here!!!

In terms of noise, yes there is the noticeable clunk clunk but not annoying, it depends on the road surface. They are not as bad as the mud tyres I had on the Hilux.
Just finished painting the plastic guards, grill and headlight surrounds Black and put them back on, the car looks a lot better. I will take some shots tomorrow and post.

Did my headlights and grill in black as well, looks heaps better.

Ritter Automotive are doing the job and they seem to know their land rover stuff.
Will postpone until I get LR to fix water issue. I think I may have found something else wrong could be mechanical.

1. Mantec Snorkel
2. LR A-Frame and winch bar
3. Warn winch 9.5cti-s
4. Front light guards (non LR)
5. Rear Bumperettes
6. Tow bar-Hayman Reese
7. Steering Guard - Troutbeck
8. Window Tinting

I am fitting my own HID driving lights (cheap chinese versions) soon as i get the A-Frame fitted.

Roof rack will come later.
Getting all these fitted at a local land rover specialist in Melbourne and not the dealer.

Once again - love your set up..

I am keep to replicate your recovery gear set up on my 90. Could I ask where you sourced the items 1-4 from? Did you get them from the dealer?

Also I see you got Ritters to install all these for you - were you happy with their service?

Cheers

Ritters sourced all the gear you see on the vehicle! I wanted to go to one place only, did not have time to go to multiple places.
I did considerable research on sourcing myself and found that their pricing was a bit higher. So, I negotiated a supply and install price that I was happy with. They have matched the prices on the snorkel and winch. They even have their own contractor doing the tinting.
I highly recommend that you get Landrover to install HD front springs once you have installed the winch. My car dropped 30+mm after winch went on.
Finally, feel free to drop in and have a look at the vehicle if you are local. Not sure how to post private message on this app.
