One thing I strongly recommend that you do to save yourself some pain in the future, is get a rear spare wheel hanger, this will stop the rear door hinges from cracking on the door panel and causing damage to the main panel. Other than that she looks a beauty.

I have also spent a similar amount of money, my favourite is the Alive Tuning remap which has made a tremendous difference. On security, rear quarter guards from LRD Security are excellent and very easy to fit. 👍🏻

A great video Doc - your open, honest approach is much appreciated. I have a 2007 Puma 90 Defender and plan to adopt many of your upgrades.

It’s a nice defender mate but it’s a bit of a Chelsea tractor

Good video and a great incentive for me to start spending money on my own vehicle which I have owned for around fourteen years now.

Agree exactly with your views on performance pack combined with suspension. That was my experience which again, I had done at Alive tuning although way back when they started. I again was adamant on wanting standard ride height. Really enjoying your channel. Thanks for taking the time to produce these.

When I bought my 2010 puma I spent a packet on physical security, gore hinges, Optimill steering wheel boss etc, my priority was stopping it getting easily stolen or dismantled, swapped the front seats for Exmoor trim ones, which are great, then Trucklite headlights, by the way, Brillo pad on the white lettering brings it up like new.
