LR Defender question...
« on: August 18, 2006, 23:30:07 »
I have a question for all you experienced defender owners..
how do you name your defender?

do you ask the resident spider, and patiently wait for it to whisper it to you, or perhaps write it in its web across the windscreen?

or do yu wait until it is thrust upon you by divine intervention?


for those who havent twigged yet, i have done the diry and bought a `89 TD defender 90!

It arrives on tuesday.

cant wait!! :D  :D  :D

Also, i have lost all my phone numbers following a swim on holiday, where i found out that my phone could NOT swim!!

If you could PM me your numbers it would be a big help!

Thanks guys, and look forard to the pages of stupid questions you know you will get..! :lol:

It would appear that the red lead it is painted with has gone pink.. therefore the only name suitable is:


"Rosie" until this terrible pink landrover issue can be resolved!  :lol:
