Rosie the Rover (Defender 110)

[Stewart (Stu) Pirie]

Hi all,

I have recently changed vehicles from a Land rover Defender 90 (Currently up for sale unfortunately) to a Defender 110.

The new Landy (Rosie, name picked by the other half) is a Maltese import into the UK, has a 300TDI and is a county station wagon so originally could carry 12 people.

Ive installed the bar work and winch up front, roof tent and Tuff Trek awning on the roof rack, ARB compressor, twin batteries with a T-Max split charge system and a second fuse box, fully sound deadened the truck with Silent coat (A must for any landy i say) and installed a Raptor Dash dash board with a CB.

Beautiful. I absolutely love the 110, and have always wanted one. Congratulations on the great purchase and best of luck unloading the 90!

So after a mishap with a jack slipping after sorting the rear A frame ball joint I've had to replace the fuel tank

But looking at it it was probably required.

Next up is replacing the rear crossmember as the current one is rotten, Funnily enough this is the only part on the chassis that's bad, probably due to the rest being coated in leaked engine oil [emoji23]

New rear safari door and wheel carrier to go on also, the original door is past it now.

Also seen a fully rebuilt Forward control in my village being used as a work vehicle.

Also had some friends round to play in the farm un some of the other toys, I think the favourite was the Mog.View attachment 111820
