Saw a LWB version, similar to yours on the way home from my parents today, both stunning! :thumbs up:
i like both, always said I would get a 90 if i was to get one for my own....i wouldn't have minded a 2 door van 110 though, the fewer windows the better I think

20,000 lumens worth of light bar fired on the roof, took a few iterations of custom brackets to get it sitting how we want....wired up next week a long with the two reverse spots and new headlights

Had about 3 or 4 inches but most of that arrived last Tuesday then froze solid over the whole of last week. Snowed agin yesterday but rain on now so hoping most has cleared by morning. Worse on our country roads, main roads clear.

i had to take the landy to get to a job when it first hit us, was only minor road on the snow but the vans are ****** useless....big smiles from me taking the landy to work, not so big smiles from the customer who had a newer landy, but missing some flash bits I had :blahblah1::blownose:

@MattSedg could be hired for the next evening county football/rugby match me thinks.
People could see the lights from afar. They made there way to the bright light high on a hill. There they found a baby (ex-Audi owner), wrapped in swaddling (outdoor) clothes , lying in a manger (Defender) :whistle2::sweatsmile::sweatsmile:

I’m doing a road trip from Gloucestershire to Hoy next year, with stop offs in the lakes, Edinburgh and eventually Hoy, I’ll definitely be looking to the Cumbria and Scotland residents for tips...
