Good writeup of 1st experience, cant believe you havent yet mentioned the turning circle!

As others have mentioned, customising your beast is > 50% the fun.

Work out whats important to you first, seat rails are a must, I only use the extra 1-2 cm's, but its great.

Have a sheetload of fun.

Cheers for the seconded motion for seat rails - will make them a priority.

Congratulations Rey, it was worth the wait, it looks great.

You are right - it was worth it, cheers.

Parking rules applied at Underwood Super Cheap today. Was good to chat - and later wave on the service road. Your Defender looks cool. Your white is brighter than my cream. I strongly recommend the Mulgo extended seat runners - best thing I ever did to mine. I also have the Mulgo rear side door opening fittings, a Mantec rear wheel carrier and the rear door stay. All excellent - should be standard. Really like the look of your Sawtooth alloys. Keep waving.

Nice one Mick and El Ray.

Hey most people would factor in a sleep over a 27 hour period El Ray! 😜 Great effort. I guess you had to get back for work? ...Grab a swag, with a pillow, fold the rear seats up next time!

Hope to see you guys on the road sometime. Enjoy!

Cheers

You're getting a bit excited with your list there, understandably excited though The Rear US bumper, Rear swing away wheel and jerry can holder and Rear bumperettes will all want to share the same mounting holes in the chassis, so you might have to shorten the list a little.
It sure is fun to have a list of stuff like that in front of you, the excitement of buying a Defender doesn't end, ever, there's always something else to bolt on somewhere

Cheers, Murray

nice truck mate, looks just like mine 6 months ago!

This is how I hope mine looks in future - more used and kitted out.

Very nice.
