My dad’s got the plug in hybrid XC90. In terms of “niceness” its surprisingly close to my mom’s Range Rover of the same year (I think they’re both 2018s?). The Range is quieter and I like the drive a lot more, but the XC90 is a stellar car for a whole lot less coin.

Chicago parking enforcement always wrote my 110 down as a "Jeep" and entered my plate number in wrong, so none of the tickets showed up in the system under my car's VIN... Not always a bad thing!

Every now and then I see a really good low milage example come up on the SoCal craigslist. Typically well maintained and never seen more than a few drops of rain. I'm tempted myself... it would be cool to start a thread to post good looking LR3/LR4's with the right options, since I've noticed...

Agreed. Although I've elected to go with an LS instead :D

I hate the look of the MUDD center console. I like that the Alpine screen will just float in front of the the otherwise plain dash. This is another interesting single din option, though (if you want to spend a lot but not get a lot other than the LR name and some basic features)...

I'm doing this in my 110 restoration. Will update when this gets installed... Likely a few months off.

I've currently got Puma seats and Mud sliders. I'm working to make custom extenders that aren't as tall as the Mud ones. The big problem isn't that my head is hitting, but that I can't see traffic signals because I'm up so high that the roof cuts off my view!

I'm trying to maximize space in my 110 build... Are there any seats that have a lower profile seat cushion in order to give a slightly lower seating position and more thus more headroom?

No input other than watching your D90 build I know we have similar taste, and if you build out the LR3 I'd love to see the progress. I'm having Ash restore my '91 110 to make it a lot better for city use, but needless to say I want an LR3 for this amateur to get off road/car to rack up the...

The camera. I'm doing a full restore and I want to make everything look as OEM clean as possible. Was thinking of removing the rear window washer and going with a G Wagon unit... Color matching it.

Has anyone figured out a way to have a backup camera installed on their Defender that looks somewhat discreet?

I've got a '91 110 that I love and will likely never sell. I'm thinking of doing a full restoration on it. I do not want a pseudo G-Wagon. I'd really just want a slightly more refined, but brand new version of what I've got now. What that means is no fancy interior, no crazy modern exterior...

I'll also add - in Chicago this time of year, my 200Tdi makes a lot of smoke when I do a cold startup (I believe its from unburned fuel due to the injector tips being so cold at startup). When I start it up later in the day after its reached operating temperature at some point I don't have the...

Damn... If you're ever around in Chicago I'd love to see this! My mechanic might be familiar with your engine. I'll ask...

Excuse my ignorance... You have a 2015 Puma 110 in Chicago?

Lots done recently: Cleaned out intercooler, adjusted the boost in the 200Tdi, put in new Heritage steering wheel, cut out bulkhead for the Mudd UK part, also threw on the Mudd seat rail extensions and ash tray. Actually feels like driving a normal truck now. If you're around 6ft or over...

At some point I need to figure out how my '91 ROW 110 does... The 200Tdi is slow, but I get good enough fuel economy that I think I've fueled it up less than 10 times since I got it in October... I don't drive much every day, but still.

Yesterday I installed my brush guard and my 2015 Defender seats... Need to take a picture of those.

Need some new tail lights for my '91 200TDI 110. Prefer the stock look, but would like to change to the later round lights. Anyone have a lead on a set?

Did you have your VDO dealer input the milage or are you able to do this yourself? I want to order, but I would want to get as close to actual milage as possible...
