Thread: Bull bar for new 110 Defender

Hi there,
is the snorkle a Land Rover one? If so just be aware that it is a raised air intake only.

I used to work at a Land Rover dealer as the accessories fitter and the LR snorkle simply bolts in place of the wing intake. The filter box and any intake tubing are not sealed - indeed the seal between the snorkle and wing wasn't brilliant.

The LR snorkle is not for wading!!

With regards bullbars I fitted one ARB bullbar to a Defender and many to Rangers and loads of OL bullbars to Rangers. In my opinion the ARB's were better in quality and design than the OL bullbars. I fitted a few different makes to Rangers (ARB, OL, TJM, Ironman, ECB and Ford)and ARB was definitely the best design.

I love my 200Tdi 110 but driving the new 110's was a revelation, they drive so well!! I'm very envious.

By the way I found that LR accessories were normally a complete pain to fit compared to aftermarket stuff. I have underbody guards and bodywork chequer plate fitted to my 110 and it was all infinitely easier to fit than genuine LR stuff!

Blimey that all sounds a bit negative doesn't it? If you fancy a bit of good taste bling have a look at the KBX website KBX Upgrades - Land Rover Defender Exterior Upgrades - Replacement Accessories - Land Rover Styling - Facelifts

Cheers Paul...................... PS enjoy your 110

The front of my 90 dropped 12mm when i fitted my bar & winch (old style ARB & Warn high mount). Will be changing to 130 springs in the front down the track to return to the former ride height.
