Other accessories like dual batteries, overhead console, UHF CB radio etc I will purchase and fit myself. Also planning to fit a detroit locker in the rear.

If you are buying this car through a salary sacrifice type lease I would recommend having all the accessories bought and fitted to the car prior to delivery. This way you don't get charged the same tax as if you buy them and fit them yourself. If the dealers prices aren't as good as another supplier just point the dealer to the supplier you want and get them to source them that way. It could save you loads of dollars.

Hey guys, when you say the "new plastic jobbie" from mantec, do you mean the one that the intake looks like some angled bit of modern art?

Check out this thread - a few pictures there

There is also a thread on the same forum with fitting instructions, but I can't find it ATM

Found the fitting instructions thread: Defender2.net Gallery - Mantec

what's wrong with factory snorkel? I thought the Landrover ones were supposed to be good unlike the toyota ones that are really only good for dusty conditions. Definately better to purchase all goodies at the same if you can.

i just didn't like the look of it.....

They are ugly and I believe the asking price is $1140.00 ( price will be confirmed on Monday).

Price confirmed the Landrover factory fitted snorkel is $1140.00. By the time I want my new car, Safari should have snorkels for the new defender on the shelf.
