I have bought a used A/B type grille which should appear early next week, not sure if it will suit the car yet, if not may just tidy up the original

A reduced section alloy was standard so you might have to approach the garage and ask for the spare that should have been with the car............... Winch is missing? Sounds like the wheel thieves have attacked the car as they have to attack the winch to remove the spare, so you will need a new winch and then an RLD spare wheel protector - often for sale on this forum or on www.disco3.co.uk 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

I can live with driving lights for now, thinking about turning the spotlight in to a DRL if I can get an LED bulb in it. I don't think they ever worked before as there wasn't a fuse fitted.

Tyre wise, for reasonable cost I like the General Grabber AT (all terrain) F/E/73db or Grabber GT. E/C/73db for just main road use with minor off road use. Many reviews have given these tyres excellent reviews.

Is the AT a high enough speed rating for RRS S/C? 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

For the Supercharged model most probably not. The tyre I have is 275/45/20 and is limited to 130mph H rating, but in all honesty unless I'm in Germany or Test Tracks no chance of doing near those speeds so completely safe to fit.

I thought a S/C was limited to 130 mph, the speedo only goes up to 140. All the Low budget tyres seem to have really high speed ratings. The Landsail tyres that are on it are ZR and M&S rated. They seem ok so far but I will change them at some time. I will have a look at the Grabber AT's but might grab a set of Cooper LTZ's for the winter.

Good idea about converting the lights to DRL.

Yes there is a switch but they are wired through main beam so it only really switches them off. I will see what type of bulbs are in them and see if I can get a decent LED one for them and just wire them up to a DRL controller. Using the switch to turn them off if ever required. Life's too short to drive boring cars !
