Can we all just take a moment to appreciate how far bqr has come alone. From being an almost novice just tinkering on motors, to engine swaping and fabbing shit up! Fair play mate
@@boqer123 If you ever get MT tyres I would recomend Yokohama Geolander MT G003 tyres(285/75r16 is 27.25kg) as they are as light as a BFG KO2 All Terrian(27kg), even lighter than a BFG KM3(29kg) and have sipes as the KM3's do not, making it a good overlanding MT tyre.
Wow what a difference the more original radiator grille makes to your landrover along with the new steel wheels new bumper along with the roof rack to turn your landrover back into a working vehicle and keep its place in people's hearts worldwide including the farmers out there that use landrover for work on and off the farm worldwide too keep up the good work Andy from John in kidlington in oxfordshire
That oil filter sprays oil in those jets whilst it is spinning and it helps separate the carbon from being pumped around the engine. The ones i change in a Scania engine, the filter comes apart in pieces for you to scrape all the carbon build up out of.
I'd keep that roofrack you can weld so put some strengthening pieces in or make it higher then maybe line it with steel playing or wood paint it up it'll look brilliant, also it'll make a good video 😉😉
Those steel wheels on your landrover look far better than other wheels and it's also a good job that you explain to all of your viewers in every little detail what you are doing to your landrover keep up the good work Andy
Nice 110, excited to see what you do next. Changing that grill was the best thing, all you need to do is change the headlight and indicator cover back to standard now haha. If you plan on doing anything remotely wet you should really check all your breathers, the front and rear diff, there are ones that come off the transfer box and gearbox. You can buy kits which allow you to bring the hoses up to the engine bay. Also in land rovers great design on the td5 the ECU is pretty low in the drivers seat box and will get wet well before the engine will take on water heh, worth checking it's water tight, people have been known to put them in tupperware boxes for peace of mind!
Just moved in to my new house in Liverpool for my masters, been a subscriber and a massive fan since 2013’s webisode days, crazy how life moves on quick, but I’m still a massive fan of your vids, got me in to bmx as a child and got me in to cars as an adult, love the new defender, wheels look mega good, can’t wait for many more videos
Andy, if you approached anyone of the specialist Landy parts people, Craddocks, Paddocks, my local one is the LR Centre Liverpool, TD 5 service kits are far cheaper, change the wheel nuts, and Embleton Imperial do a super super led light kit for the dash clocks, but I suggest ringing them and asking to include an extra unit for the speedo as they are a sod to fit, I Use locking forceps.....I'm with you dont really like the bubble raptor, but when its appied finely then its quite nice, PS my big black landy is called Penny
Best of luck with your new defender man, i have an old discovery 2 td5 and would recommend changing the gearbox, transfer box and both diff oils too mate when you go to service everything else 👍
I have subscribed due to the defender :). A good preventative maintenance thing to do for a TD5 is to change the injector seals and washers. Go for OEM tho.
That new bumper you added to your landrover makes your landrover look more original now keep up the good work Andy from John in kidlington in oxfordshire
7:37 Yo btw you should put some fresh oil in the oil filter before you put it on, just helps stop your upper end running dry until the oil is sucked and pumped through the oil filter housing.
Huge improvement with the wheels, bumper and grill. OEM headlight surrounds would help too. Surprised you didn't delete the snorkel altogether for a cleaner look. Great truck.
If your planning on going wading, under the airbox is a little rubber valve which is to let water/mostuire drain out, remove and seal the hole, also your Ecu is under the drivers seat...great place for electrics to get wet !
This is honestly one of the baddest looking offroaders I've seen. Super stoked to see that besides the car vids, you are still keeping the bmx content going. Good stuff boq!
I put some aircraft aluminium wheel spacers on mine and it really altered stance and look of the vehicle. Like the snorkel, I have a similar one to your old one but the new one looks very cool. I'll buy your winch off you. I've gone back to a standard grill too. They just look more purposeful. Yours looks so much better.
Loving the defender, I have had a 3.5 v8 classic range and a discovery both lifted with mud tyres etc! Off-roading is so much fun! You should find your local land rover club and go on a green lane day with them!
Hi, just waiting on a curry. Defender is slick. Remember a mate having one in college and the wind used to whistle through the rust holes in the floor. Good memories although I'm sure we'd have been absolute mince meat in a crash. Maybe one day I'll grab a fixer upper.
WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN???? Just came across this video by chance (and I've searched and watched loads of defender videos, I'm sure you understand). This was great! Definitely going to subscribe. 👍🏾
The snorkel is actually so that the car can get clean air when driving in a convoy in dusty conditions. It just happened to also help in water in some cases
Love the defender content, my dad was in the REME for ten years and done two tours of Iraq, he mainly worked on defenders aswell as Bedford lorries and some small tanks. He always tells me the story of changing a defender prop shaft in the middle of the desert while under fire from the Taliban.
I think getting a hi loft jack is a good idea if you want to go overlanding or road tripping they just attach to the rear and make it easier to change the tyres if you were to get a puncture as a normal jack won't reach a defender.
Can we all just take a moment to appreciate how far bqr has come alone. From being an almost novice just tinkering on motors, to engine swaping and fabbing shit up!
Fair play mate
Kinda like Ricer Miata...
Hear hear Marley_S
He has the want to learn mindset so his mates etc teach him how to, best way to be
BQR That’s a K&N washable filter!! That’s a performance mod too. There’s around £50. Highly recommend you reuse it mate.
yup just noticed hahah, cheers I'll pull it out the bin
@@boqer123 Make sure you have the cleaner and spray oil.

Honest to God, I could listen to Andy spouting out pure shit all day 😂😂
Andy needs a podcast 😂
@@matthewdavies1415 I can hear the into now
"Heeeyyy guys!"
@@matthewdavies1415 yes!
Loving the land rover content. BTW you should be running steel wheel nuts with those instead of the alloy ones as they have a different taper
The synchronisation of the new tyre stickers, when jack drove the Landy out the garage @16:26 , was too satisfying.
Actually love Andy his sense of humour is great 😂😂😂

I loved cleaning the spinners out when I was a apprentice at scania in UK.

Love this series already. And well glad you kept the matte black as well, looks mint

Didnt know anything about Defenders until you bought one and I just think they’re the coolest things now. Cheers from Sweden

How do you feel about dipping your quavers in milkshake
Surprised at how much I’m a fan of this build. Never been into off roading. Looking forward to more content!
Glad you kept it matte black looks unreal mate
Just found your Channel and I’m loving these videos. I love defenders and you clearly know what you’re doing.

Such a good transformation! I’d be interested in less glossy headlight surrounds next
Just finished my scran on my break at work watching this easy 20 minute break 👌🏼 Defenders looking sick aswell
Not a bad piece of fab work that - ways glad to see you using proper PPE too
I have subscribed due to the defender :).

Love the vids, love the choice of car I have one myself, noticed the next thing to do is EGR valve blank, helps the engine run better

Big up man like Andy, always the highlight of the vid lol

Epic build coming along!! Gotta do a draw and fridge setup.
I think it's one of the nicest Defenders I've seen in a while! Good job! The BFG KO2s look very nice!
This is honestly one of the baddest looking offroaders I've seen. Super stoked to see that besides the car vids, you are still keeping the bmx content going. Good stuff boq!
Every time I see a vid like this is makes me want to buy one! Luckily these aren't so common in Canada! Nice work on the build.

Yes dude🤙🏻 the wheels and cheap rack are sweetness but I know how it feels changing wheels I’ve done it many times myself
New wheels look awesome and so does the defender! Cant wait to see some off-roading vids in the future! Congrats on the new motor Boq
Hi, just waiting on a curry. Defender is slick. Remember a mate having one in college and the wind used to whistle through the rust holes in the floor. Good memories although I'm sure we'd have been absolute mince meat in a crash. Maybe one day I'll grab a fixer upper.
probably my fav project, cant wait for the next part!
Good shout changing the grille looks way better now! Keep the vids coming mate 👍🏼
Looks miles better already!
Definitely looks a lot better with all of the changes that you maid, especially that front end.
Wheels looking awesome! Really need an overlander project
Loving the way the defender is coming along
Stock grill and bumper look sick! Definitely worthwhile upgrades imo!
I wasn't sure about putting the stock bumper on, but it looks mint!
Welcome to the world of defender mate!
Improvements looking good, very resourceful, keep it up BQR
This has inspired me to get a huge Off roader now!! looks amazing
Loving the defender, great choice on the 16’s an keeping the raptor paint. Function over form boi.
Looks great. You've given it a lovely looking fresh look.
paint the crash bars behind the grill just to tidy up the front end that little bit more, will look even more minty fresh 👌
Andy’s Landys , that’s brilliant ! Definitely digging the more OEM look 👌
Proper good build that! Oem bumper looks sick
Hi
Ace vid. I’ve got a 110 and went for 16” with km3 265 so it’s good to see you do a similar thing. Most people seem to go bigger. Keep it up !,
I’m literally about to buy a 110 just like this 😂 dare I say. Almost identical. Your channel has been a great find!
New boqer videos are a good start to the day
‘Boger123’ - James May
The wheels look so much better dude! 👍🏻
The defender is absolutely siiiiiick with the new wheels. I love it!
That Defender is a dream for me, wheels are sick too. Just enjoying some apple and blackberry crumble wishing I had one of them caps 😂
Mad how much little additions really make, gassed to see where this goes !
Yo! Congrats. Glad you like your new car man!
Keep the content coming🔥
WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN???? Just came across this video by chance (and I've searched and watched loads of defender videos, I'm sure you understand). This was great! Definitely going to subscribe. 👍🏾
This is sick! Looks a lot better with the grill and bumper! Keep up the great content!
full roast after cleaning my defender! was well needed. nice ride mate!
Well impressed on your progress in general, nice to see a Hereford Bentley with some big chonkers on 👍🏼
Mate that looks so good with the bumper change and snorkel good work look forward to watching future videos of awesomeness 🔥
Upgrading to base model specs, bumper, wheels, grille, and looks A+
That was a k&n panel filter that you took out. Could of cleaned it and put it back in. Better than a paper filter 🤟
Class bit of kit, nice change of vibe as well from the usual!
9:49 Rare footage of Charles Bronson working out while on day-release
Like how its coming along, personally prefer the winch, excited to see what winch your thinking of getting!
Glad you finally like the Matt black👀 defender looks sick
The snorkel is actually so that the car can get clean air when driving in a convoy in dusty conditions. It just happened to also help in water in some cases
Strongman Andy! Love the defender 👌
This is my new favourite UA-cam build 🤩
Yo surely you're keeping the winch. So useful, track days and mudding and stuff.
Defender is looking well tidy with them wheels now!
I never knew I liked content about off-roaders until now. Love me some solid BQR content.
Looks awsome. The wheels fit so well
Loving the defender! Definitely should wrap the back cab either a satin or gloss black 🤙🏻 look forward to more content with the defender! 🔥👌🏻
Love the defender content, my dad was in the REME for ten years and done two tours of Iraq, he mainly worked on defenders aswell as Bedford lorries and some small tanks. He always tells me the story of changing a defender prop shaft in the middle of the desert while under fire from the Taliban.
New wheels are looking sweet! I had a steak and ale pie for dinner, standard for me tbh! I'd love to see some green-laning videos if you do more!
I think getting a hi loft jack is a good idea if you want to go overlanding or road tripping they just attach to the rear and make it easier to change the tyres if you were to get a puncture as a normal jack won't reach a defender.
Andy's Landy's, the channel none of us knew we needed.
Looking sick, good idea to keep it matt black!
Wheels looking good & new grille definitely an improvement. Could do with a front number plate like that myself 👍
Solid looking defender man!
11:51 So you can go through deep rivers when off roading 👍
Looks so much better now 🤜🤛
Looks sick honestly I like the matte black raptor
The Defender is proper mint 👌 always go for smaller wheel and bigger tire 👍
The stickers on the tyres were lined up perfect as it drove out of the workshop… very satisfying
Defender looks great! I'd say the wheels are way nicer plus you'll get a few quid back for the other ones! 👌
Loving the defender content, oem looks so alot cleaner
The one you made is far nicer than the original. Loving this series
