    How excited should I be?...new Defender

    Greetings all,
    I have just been informed that the finance lease payment for a new MY13 Tamar Blue 110 has been paid to the dealer.....should I be extatically excited knowing that I will have a new 110 in the driveway by the end of the week...I have only waited a year or so for my existing novated lease to finish....
    My relationship with Defenders goes back a few years...it all started when I joined the Army in 1990...

    If you AREN'T excited then you don't bloody deserve it !

    I wanted a 130 not a 110 and the novated lease companies wouldn't do it for me as its classified as commercial.... buggers,

    I was pretty excited. And when I drove it out of the dealership and turned the radio on. 'The Final Countdown' by Europe came on. I was fist pumping out the window much to the concern of other drivers.

    Now looking at it I should have bought a Toyota as us as landy owners seem to modify everything to make the defender like them...driving both landys and cruisers the cruisers are as a whole a better more well built unit...don't mind the old 4.2 patrols either...owning 3 defenders (1993 200tdi,2010 110,2013 130 and a county) and only putting 30k on the 130 since June I think to myself why did I get another 1 but for some reason I did most probably for the looks
