Green wasnt my first choice colour but id rather a really tidy green one than a tatty red one of something, colour can be changed anyway, and will be less green when i change the van panels to sliding windows

Officially an 'air-portable', as they fit in the back of a Hercules or a Chinook.
They're no lighter than a standard 90 though
The 101 we have was dropped from under a chinnock, bent bumpstops on nearly all the ones i've seen.

I'm fucking looking at defenders on PH now. I've always wanted one tbh lol. When my dad had a few Disco's I got really into the LR "scene". Toured the factory at Solihull too. Was pretty cool. Especially the Specialist vehicles section where they did all the bespoke stuff.

Letter of the law says it is, but most coppers wouldn't enforce it.
