I'm a big Defender fan. Nearly had a 110 xs a couple of years back but decided on a T6. Couldn't afford both
What other cars do you own?

Escort cosworth polzeylad it holds 30psi quarter mile at pod was 11.87 few years ago though, never comes out the garage now
Blimey; seriously modded. The standard one wasn't all that quick.
They changed the taxation class of new Defender Station wagons, which were previously viewed as cars, between when I ordered and picked up in 2014 - my expectation was that I would be paying £500+ per year but as a PLG I'm only paying £230. Downside is the speed limits that apply but not really an issue once I realised (after about a year of ownership!).

I keep looking at Defender 90's 50th Anniversary editions, really really want one but the mrs says no :-(
Had a 110 XS double cab for 4 years with the 2.4 puma engine, went bloody well and I never got it stuck even with the OEM Ice cream van tyres. It was all things to all men but just had no space for a a child seat in the back so it had to go.

Stand your ground man (looking over my shoulder to make sure Mrs H isn't watching me type - lol). A friend gave me a set of 50th Anniversary badges last week that were given out to the LR employees back then - he used to work there before he retired - I was touched that he wanted me to have them.
Nice!
They are only going to go up in value.
A firm local to us did a referb on one recently "bringing it up to date" and it looks mint, heres a photo that I'm sure someone won't approve of but lots of LED light output on the front!
I confess I have been a big Mini fan since I left school, the love of my life I had for over 21 years, needless to say it was seriously modified being 1380 pushing out around 100 bhp at the wheels. rather than post a photo here is a video of it on a Rolling Road shoot out. I came second, the guy who beat me had 2 bhp more. Enjoy and turn up the volume
I had a couple of defenders too
Oh and this that I regret selling everyday
911 targa from circa 1980? That used to be my dream car when I learnt to drive and for many years after.
Still the best looking 911.
