Cheers mate. Any tips on where to get one from? I had read some people had ordered from the UK, but not sure which companies supply them.

nice looking defender...I'm curious does the under sill step (for what its worth) come stock or is it a paid for add on.my new 110 came with 1 and some don't.
I never mentioned it to the dealer and there it was .

Awesome colour Gaz I will be getting Gracie's "second" cousin in April, and she will be a little longer (by two doors).

Can't wait, but there has been a little spanner in the works. I originally mentioned I wanted steel wheels, but a couple of months later when I put down the deposit on the vehicle I forgot to actually reiterate about the wheels.

Now it seems I cannot get them changed and the vehicle will be delivered with boost alloys I have begged and pleaded, but the dealer has been emailing them regularly and tells me LR in good old Blighty have refused to budge on this. Slack b_ggers, they aren't even building the damn thing until this month!

I also tried to get them to build it with black grill and headlight surrounds, but they won't do that either. Brunei it must be... grrrrrr.

Ah well, I don't suppose I'll care once I get my bum in the seat

Just tell them you want to cancel the order - that should get a bit of movement (on the wheels at least).

Your Dealer can supply them,..I got mine from ULR (Andrew, spare parts)
The part no. is BTR 1045.
There is a spot on the front of the car for them, & I reckon they should be fitted standard!
Cheers, Pickles.
