'95 130 dual cab fender (gone to a better universe)
'10 130 dual cab fender (getting to know it's neurons)
Tray mounts (where tray fitted) - most of them I've seen are wrong so its more a matter of getting it right after the fact rather than worrying about it beforehand (except check the integrity of the tray itself to make sure no cracking etc)
But generally a Tdi Defender is a Defender is a Defender.
It's not broken. It's "Carbon Neutral".

						Rust in the floor under the pedals. Tap with 50c piece and be aware it is double skinned.
in addition to everyone else's comments so far, look for the usual leaks on the 300Tdi motor - g pasket, vacuum pump, crankcase oil breather/separator (attached to drivers side of the tappet cover) also check the hoses connected to this breather as they leak easily if the hose clamps are not tight
