    One of the nicest 90 Defender builds I've seen!!!

    Might not be everyone's cup of tea but I love it and think it's one of the highest quality builds I've seen, thought some other members may want to have a look and give there opinion... Its built by Overfinch seen lots of Overfinch Land Rovers in Europe, especially Range Rovers but never a 90... I wouldn't personally build this unless I had a spare 90 laying around but I do like spare tire mount and wooden tray, when I build and paint my FFR perentie, want to make something pretty special, I might look at something like that for rear tray, except with jarrah...

    I wonder if It was made to order ? or if they made It hoping that It would appeal to a 90 buyer that has deep pockets , looking for something a bit different !!..Jim...

    Overfinch are a company in Alton in the uk. Just around the corner from where I used to live.

    They have been up rating RR for years. They used to take out the rover v8 and put in a small block Chevy in them and up rate brakes and suspension.

    I have the chance to drive an Overfinch RRC around for a weekend

    But as time moves on , in the uk the Defender is a fashion car at the moment, and you can see this with some of the bespoke defender companies advertising in uk Landy Mags . Overfinch have jumped on this bandwagon. Know many people who have sold their jag's , Ferraris and other sports cars for Land Rover Defenders

    I could see myself in my bespoke 90, with a matching bespoke wooden boat, plus requisite bespoke chicky babes

    By all means get a Defender. If you get a good one, you'll be happy. If you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.

    Couple of logs and chainsaws in the back sir??
    Too much brown leather around the handbrake, etc for my liking but I do like the decking - much like the Bentley convertible.

    Have a mate who sold his Ferrari and bought a Defender and then put ARB diff front and rear and blinged it with all the toys. He just picked up a copy if LRO and with his card filled the car up.

    Or as we take the Micky out of him and say he magnetised the car and ram raided an high end land rover accessories suppler and fitted everything that stuck to the car

    Has never been anywhere near mud.

    Wow, Mr Read or Reads, that's an impressive web site. Are you into web design and all that sort of thing?
    Your trip map immediately brought to mind that song:
    I've been everywhere man"
    Love the 90 - saw that earlier and commented that it's an inspiration to restore and bling up older landies.
    cheers Gerald
