Over the last 10 days or so we have been speaking to a number of dealers and looking at getting a new Defender while they were in the 2013 MY sale (officially white cars only I believe)

We didn't really want a white one, so after a lot of searching we had a possible option on a green one that fell through in the end, then a couple of black ones both of which were fairly high spec, but the more affordable one of these had a silver roof and with very limited pictures available we weren't comfortable buying it...

So, we have maybe got slightly over excited anyway, and this evening signed the paper work on a brand new 2014 90 in Baltic Blue, fitted with the dual finish alloys and MTR's.

Build will be January 2014, and we should get it at the end of March, very early April.

Cant wait!

Pete+Sam.

I hope its a gesture of good will for Sam as her Stage 1 may be going.

Now, when it is settled in and you decide you want longer doors and 7.1 extra inches of wheelbase in your 90, let me know and ill bust out the oxy :cool:

Bloody hell Pete, you need a bigger carport and shed. 4 Land Rovers is a bit much, I think one is enough :eek: :eek:

Guess the Disco is getting the big A ??

So an all diesel fleet, suppose the rip off that QLD rego is it wouldn't be too hard of a decision to make (at least Vic rego is all the same price regardless if it's a 4 cylinder or a V8).

Very close to the old one. They'll look great beside each other!

You're thinking of the wrong colour John, the old "Scruffy Blue" they used to do is very different! :p
