    lara's ride

    I just read a thread about the Tomb Raider Defender from the original movie.
    Is it a Defender?
    Fine the front is a defender unit, but the doors are series ones, It wears series badges on the roof and dash, has a disco 2 auto gear selector, and to me looks like a 130 crew cab tub for the back.

    Is it a hybrid from a defender or a series?
    does anyone know

    It's mostly defender 110. It started off life as a Defender 110 HICAP and was modified from there. One of the past newsletters had an article that I wrote about it in it, but I think that the downloads page is offline at the moment. I'll see if I can find it to post

    Series style metal badges on the passenger side of the dashboard and in between the roof mounted spotties.

    Is the rear tub the unit off a 130 crew cab though? It look very similar
