Thread: My New MY15 on its way.

Ok as some of you may have noticed I'm back on board after almost two years off, my MY12 Defender had wore me down at the time, I was doing heaps of city driving and not using it for its intended purpose. I had missed all the creature comforts of a modern 4wd so I made a bad call and sold it.

Anyways not all bad, I had replaced it with a new Colorado 7 which I just loved, heaps of diesel power absolutely fantastic features and creature comforts in fact I loved the Colorado so much I gave the Colorado 7 to the wife and went and bought myself the Colorado ute. I can't say a bad thing about them, an absolute pleasure to drive the power was amazing.

Needless to say I had that itch and when I realised there won't be another opportunity to buy another Defender again I panicked.

I read on here about how July then Sept was last orders and being late October I was disheartened by the thought of missing out.

This prompted me to ring every dealer throughout Australia, after every dealer laughing at me trying to find a 110 wagon I managed to come across two but they were both 5 seaters. I wanted a seven. I kept my hunt going I literally rang every dealer in Australia when alas I found a seven seater in SA from a country dealer.

Now my colour preference was white (again) ha ha ha, but I was not going to be choosy considering the circumstances. So you can imagine my surprise when I asked the dealer if he had any new 110's and he said yes, then I asked is it a seven seater and he said yes, then I asked what colour it is and he said White....OMG JACKPOT...

Well I couldn't give him my credit card quick enough.

So it ended up being a partial leather package with the Diamond Turn Alloys, side runners and body colour guards.

It has now been paid for and is on a truck on its way to me. So hopefully Friday I will be back behind the seat. I can't wait.

So here is a photo of my new Beast. I have blacked out the Alloys and put some Cooper STMaxx's on it.

I will put some more photos up as I add accessories.

There was a demo Keswick green with white roof at StLeonards.

VIC had a demo white 5seat with white steel wheels.

Dubbo at the time had a white 7seater with red premium seats Black Pack. But he said it was coming in, so it wasn't physically in stock.

VIC there was a black 5seater

I'm pretty sure QLD had none.

There were plenty of 90's everywhere it was like they couldn't get rid of them.

There was at the time a 110 Adventurer at LR Narrellan and they wanted 83k for it.

And VIC had a 130

I'm assuming these are all now gone.
