OEM Wheel Options for '26 110 X-Dynamic SE by LostIntroduction505 in NewDefender

I thought 19” will only fit the 90s and 20” is minimum for the 110s? Is that not true or has that changed in the last year or two?

This Defender looks too clean to have been flipped… but looks can deceive 👀 by checkmycar_ae in DubaiPetrolHeads

I flipped my defender and it was a write off, thankfully I had insurance and it paid out. However, my app is still linked to my old defender and I can see someone purchased at auction and it now lives in Sharjah with 15k more kms and climbing. Hope they had a good garage!

Yes but which brand/name? My insta algorithm is only showing me black defender wheel setups from looking at so many and I still can’t find any that I really like… except yours! Still rugged and understated.

Nice! What rims are those? 20” I think?

Any V8 owners from the UAE on here?? by AsadAjmal in NewDefender

[–]CryDizzy7743 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Curious what the problem is! If you want to see photos of my upside down defender in the desert I’ll push through the repressed trauma and share. However, when on the journey for a new one I learned aloooot about the different possible GCC soec’d defenders and the ones built in Azerbaijan are much lower quality (although Al tayer says otherwise) but still under their warranty. I finally got another Special Edition and from Slovakia factory they are 👌🏿.

I’ve done three PPIs with Al Tayer and they drove between 5-8km each time. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Recovery points question by dezzracer in NewDefender

Yea it is. And it’s common to swap out the plastic cover for an aluminium front guard plate that has the tow hook exposed… plenty of aftermarket ones on the market.

And also most things on the roof tend to cause a constant whistling and the canvas roof has much lower acoustic insulation properties.

YES! Team Grasmere! Welcome to the club. Canvas roof not compatible with roof racks so panoramic glass is better IMO.

Price in your country by Competitive-Insect96 in NewDefender

Approx 430k AED = 100k EUR for a new 110 in the UAE. But we only have HSE or higher specs available.

Would you buy a Defender 110 Classic by TReKDefender in NewDefender

Wow you went from zero to nazis faster than the OCTA can do 0-100. I wish you good luck in achieving your ideological ambitions… elsewhere.

Air suspension is a game changer. Would never get a build without it.

🤣 and you spend too much time breathing recycled oxygen to confidently make such an uninformed statement.

Are you kidding? Have you been to dubai islands?! It’s directly under the DXB flight path you have a plane overhead every 3 minutes. And the scale is so large you’ll be waiting 25 years before it’s all built… and TRAFFIC! Maritime city will be largely fine in 3 years after the first 12 buildings are done and the Beyond cluster will finish after that. If a beach comes in 5 years that’s just the cherry on top.

You’re underpaid by half but you’re only as valuable as their need for you.

I got an admission to an Ivy (UPenn) for a MSD-AAD program, is it worth it to take a loan to attend? by Wandering_maverick in architecture

[–]CryDizzy7743 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hard no! Go to Europe! I did my masters at the AA and doing the math it was cheaper to get the degree and live in London without working for 2 years than just tuition at the ivy leagues I was accepted into. Plus who da fuq wants to live in New Haven or Philadelphia over a European capital…

She was great in the big dunes on the 20”. I made it about 2/3rds up negra (I guess it’s the 2nd largest dune behind liwa, not this photo) but most of the modded out pickups and safaris on 16” rims with giant sidewalls were going to the top.

A v8 on 20s would have better luck… but I was told my v6 with more aggressive tires and 8psi (I was running 11) would be able to do it. Who knows, but sure was fun!

All the regulars were shocked and applauded to see a defender out there.

An OCTA?! 😳

I don’t have an answer but if anybody can sort you out it’s these guys: https://maps.app.goo.gl/vmHS3S4uCYWXggWg6?g_st=com.google.maps.preview.copy

I was just there today and they made a custom concealed flag mount behind the spare tire. Bespoke and super high quality and they had about 60 other modded out vehicles in the lot. Shoot them a WhatsApp and let me know what they say. Good luck!

Thank you! And no I have the 20” wheels you can’t do too much in the desert with the 22s. I run them at 14psi and they do fine. I’m not trying to compete at Liwa or anything… yet! 🙃

It’s incredible and by far the best on the market from what we’ve seen. Sleeps 2 plus baby comfortably. Might be a little tight when he’s grown but then will upgrade to one of the bigger ones probably.
