Sell it and buy an auto Ranger or BT50 etc.Seriously,changing your defender to auto is folly. Pat

Have a quick search for "Automatic Defender" and a ton of links come up on AULRO. Ashcroft's is one of the better conversions.

The td5 has been done quite a few times , simply because there are more td5 Discos , that can be doner cars ! I think after looking into cost you might change your mind . I always thought that Land Rover should have given an Auto option , after all they do with there other models . Plenty of people would have paid the extra payed $$ Jim :)

Thanks for the input people, and yep being looking at Ashcroft and Man that's expensive, because I love the 110 I'll put up with the dodgy knee a until it's no longer an option.
Cheers again

Have you looked at this option?

RedBooster.com Land Rover Defender Servo Clutch (http://www.redbooster.com/)

I'm not sure how much lighter the clutch petal would be but might help for a while.

Just had a good look at the website and under "Testimonials & Fittings", one guy demonstrates how he can now press the clutch with one finger.

Yes i have driven one and ot is quite strange how disconnected from 'normal' defender clutch feel it is. A well engineered product though!
