    What about the ride height?

    They have some data for the 110 giving distance from wheel centre to the arch at 560 front and 590 rear - based on civvy 110 data

    Can someone put a tape measure on an unladen perentie?

    of all of those....

    black out lights
    door locks (really, door locks on a rag top?)
    ignition lock mechanism
    bonnet protrusions (iffy)

    and from memory no requirement for VSB compliance.

    and its not a defender, never was, never will be trying to pass it on defender specs will never work.

    Very strange about the ride height. How do you lower it and still maintain the GVM rating.

    The door locks also seem a little pointless with a soft top.

    It appears that they are working off the vehicle's VIN number that states that it is a Land Rover 110.

    Pretty sure even the 110 doesn't have an "angel of visibility"

    They state that the pintle issue is only for those vehicles built after 07/91. I think that the reason they use "possibly" is that it seems that some have the required numbering to say that they are legal and it appears that some don't.
