    What should we do to Richard's Defender next? 🤔 Thanks to Liqui Moly for sponsoring today's video, check out their new car care products here: bit.ly/LiquiMoly-24-CARCARE

      Step one. Undo everything you just did. You spent 5k and turned it into paris hiltons handbag.
      Step two, take it to mahker, they have a clue how to build a landrover.

      Well, with the new aero in the back, the front needs to step up. How about a China splitter? Just what a defender needs. 🤷🏼

    • @DarrenCoull
      @DarrenCoull 4 місяці тому +1

      If it is still prone to breaking greasy bits, perhaps some choice drivetrain upgrades to make it tougher and of course more power to help move the brown barn through the air a bit quicker?

    Some really tasty mods in this video. Love the ORE bits. So well thought out. Not surprised Richard loves this motor so much.
    For me though, the standard headlight surrounds just look so much nicer than any of the after market jobs. The Landy has such a distinctive face and doesn’t need plastic surgery.

    Richard as an American, I’m so jealous of your Defender. I was lucky enough to get my hands on a 1991, 200TDI, British Import Defender here in the states. However, it chasing parts with their significant mark up and of course having a shop to treat Gypsy right that is challenging. I’m assuming she’s had a bit of a hard life before, and I’m just doing my best to keep her up and going. Eventually, one day I might get to a frame off restoration. She really is a wonderful old girl and deserves better than I can give her right now. Best of luck.
