You'll be putting it back together in much better condition and better fitted than when it left the factory I want to see the sweets before I get into your windowless van... I'm not stupid!

Thanks Nigel. Appreciated.
Well, all technical overhauling things completed from total disassembly to assemble process - now the focus is on the interior..... almost took 1,5 years until now.

Fair play Robert, that's some project ... I was going to take the mats out of mine and give the front a vac over the weekend but it didn't get done I want to see the sweets before I get into your windowless van... I'm not stupid!

Must say, this is an impressive piece of work! Good to see someone tackle the interior for once, and not just the eternal oil pumps and suspension arms

trying to achieve a factory new / showroom status
actually over the technical overhauling process - 100+ new parts were used until the last clips and bolts + plus the engine.
current phase is the interior, here some new parts will be required.
3rd phase is exterior (paint job) and accessories - only genuine JLR ones (winch and snorkel installed only yet)
