New Defender

[DieselDan]

T'wife got me a new Defender for my 50th birthday today - some assembly required!https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230531/211b8102502cb6af8aa5f92a4fa7bab0.jpg

So far so good!
The level of detail is amazing and the build quality and panel gaps are very realistic [emoji38]
I've now got to decide whether to make it into the expedition version or finish it off as standard.

I am going to get that lego kit soon. It looks awesome!

Yeah it's great, you'll love it.

I've finished it off with a sort of half-expedition look. Didn't like the full bullbar, so made a tube style bumper but kept the winch. Also kept the Puma style bonnet (even though the diesel engine is supposed to be modelled on a Td5!). Might swap in the V8 later.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230628/e88bb561d5ab2a1ae98fcee9f342c203.jpg
