Local resident Paul visited us recently to take the L663 #NewDefender around the site. Paul has his own New Defender, so wanted to spend some time concentrating on the systems within the vehicle and how to get the best from them.

Since I'm sure this is gonna be a thing, I figured I'd get my #NewDefender build out of the way.

I love that we can spec white steel wheels!
