Project Defender 110

[big-lew18]

That's actually alright looking. But mine vote is still tan

 

[Andy55]

That almond would look well. Much prefer it over the tan and ivory.

 

[domo gti]

I said tan earlier but really like the look of that too!
Thats a smart looking colour..

 

[Con S3]

That's the job right there. That look great and doesn't have the bling characteristics of the ivory.

Just read the whole project and loved where it was heading, looked real purposeful. Are you planning to put any of it back on again?

No winch, I have a black Aluminium Hannibal rack which i may mount a Lazer light bar on but i am not rushing it, i was up and down the motorway today and it was the best it has driven since i have started. Also called into LR to help spec my sisters new motor so it was a good chance to look at the leather. Ivory everywhere. One almond which looked terrible, far darker that the pictures, and no tan to view. 3 SVR's all with black. I am back to the tan

 

[big-lew18]

Good man tan FTW

 

[mcma1]

some pictures came from the suppliers today to try and help. most are ivory its an orkney grey 110, a bit lighter than my Corris Grey

None off the Tan fitted, just the doorcards

 

[Con S3]

I take it back, the Ivory doesn't look great there and I think it would be even further pronounced by the darker grey on your 110.

 

[Sgt_Major]

Tan ftw!

 

[mcma1]

Yeah, I think I will go all black leather dash but with a bit of tan contrast stitch on the glove and dial covers, then all black centre consoles between the front and rear recaros with the tan stitch on them...full tan recaros and then split the door cards as above and if I don't like it I will just paint it all black.

 

[G N K]

The ivory does it no favours would be my thoughts on that.

Black and Tan ftw.

that sounds much better tbh

I wasn't fussed on the ivory/white stuff before and those pictures sealed it,

 

[domo gti]

Yes that sounds like a nice matchup with tan and black bits!

 

[big-lew18]

That ivory is awful. Just goes to show that money can't buy taste, IMO. Tan for the win!!

EDIT:

Saying that, I went for the very tasteful grey plastic paired with slightly faded grey plastic for my latest purchase for the Ninety

Do you write the defender descriptions for Hollybrook car sales by any chance! You should see how they can use some fancy words to describe a defender interior! No offence directly meant to them but you can't polish a turd.

 

[big-lew18]

You can't polish it a turd, but you can sprinkle glitter on it.lol.

 

[mcma1]

Starting to think i should stick to my original plan, all this contrast leather is risky, i change my mind like the wind and its too expansive to undo this one. @Con S3 you are going to love this lol.

These are my old SVX recaros the next owner had retrimmed.

So i am thinking the same but with a contrast red stitch.

 

[big-lew18]

They're really tidy lookin!

 

[Markhall]

that's perfect
I haven't liked any of the two tone full leather pics tbh
black and grey alacantra is hard to beat.

 

[mcma1]

spec confirmed and order placed.

 

[Sgt_Major]

Got a new home sorted for your current interior yet?

 

[Con S3]

That is the ticket right there! Classy and tasteful, looks awesome!!

 

[Debaser]

Black and Tan

Careful where you say that in this country!

3.30am boat, 6 hrs and the defender is now with Wildcat for the Ls3. I am getting a pint.
