    So I'm thinking my standard Defender seats are actually very comfortable
    So.... for the same price as two (abeit very very comfy) seats - I could by a very nice Series I. A really nice restored one mind. And rego. And a tank of fuel. And insurance. Oh well that works then.

    And, anyone from Recaro is reading this - guys, news just in - you aren't going to sell any of these after market ! Not at that price point.

    Nera Donna,
    The owners manual version's will be UK variants of the tow bar. Not for Australia. The Australain Version is made here just for our market & ADR's
    (Rover Australia Accessory) RAA608, this fitted will keep your rear step. It still has a towing capacity of 3.5T, so i would highly recomend the factory version.

    $1100 fitted sounds a little steep...

    Cheers

    No Problems.
    At our work at present we are having problems getting towbars for the TD4 Defender as stocks are NIL. This means they are in the process of being manufactured/built.
    Been advised will be a few weeks away, although we had one delivered today
    So hopefully stocks will be filled sooner rather than later.

    Cheers

I was expecting more for the ipod connection, it's just a cable sticking out the dash.
    We are also getting full rubber mats throughout, protect those carpets nicely and should also add to the sound proofing.
    Sunroof looked really smart,unusual opening and closing mechanism but I assume it makes it more secure(waterproof).

    I was getting an ARB tow bar fitted to future proof it for eventually addding a long range fuel tank, but I hear with the ARB bar you lose the rear access step. Is this true?

    Two weeks to pick up. Can't wait.

    I fitted the Hayman Reese bar - very neat, minimal impact on departure angle and no impact on rear step
