After much deliberation we finally went for a Land Rover Defender 90. It's 15 years old, really basic so it's easy to fix and it's also a she. We've christened her Yolande, and we bought her off a local farmer where she worked as a basic farm 'mule', but all that changed when we first saw her:

Here's a couple of photo's, Yolande's nearly finished, but just needs few finishing touches.

we'll put on more detailed photo's of the prep and finished piece soon.
