Back In The Fold

Hi Everybody.
Owned a few 110,s over the years, then went to the dark side LC 200.
Well I am back with a Defender 110 to be delivered in a couple of weeks.
My question is leaving aside the horrible cost. Is the land rover winch and bar any good. Has anybody bought one who would care to comment.
Its size look and weight (or lack of appeals).
Does the winch bar have recovery points ?,for snatching etc.
Thanks in advance for any replies.

High quality winch (made by Warn) and winch-bar (made by Mantec for Land Rover). The winch-bar has two substantive recovery points. I liked them so much I forked out the big bikkies. Not sorry. Also got the OEM A-bar from which I have mounted driving lights and UHF aerial.

Thanks Karlb
Just so I understand the winch comes on a winch bar with the recovery points and the A frame bar is a separate purchase.
