Grenadier imposter?

Looks like this Defender 110 is trying to join the forum. Check out the plates......

They took it as a trade in for a Grenadier.

I can't be the only one impressed that they are using a Hella Rallye 1000 as a rear light, right?

I'm more amazed nobody's made a bracket to hold a light in that position for the Gren yet. Just need an arm off something like the Black Sheep adapter and voila, easy rear lights without messing with the ladder or needing a roof rack.

It's for the jerks that role up on you with their high beams on! Great idea

That's actually a Hella 4000

Honestly that was my initial feeling, then I tried to brush up on my Hella numbers... Last time I had numbered Hellas on a vehicle was a set of 550 drivings on the bumper of my hand-me-down '94 4Runner; and they were installed long before it was handed down to me at the turn of the century

It’s actually a vehicle that was a trade in for a Grenadier. It looks like it’s had a pretty good life though. That patina can’t be faked.

I have a pair of 4000's on my RRC, mounted to a non-winch ARB. I think I still have (4) 1000's in a box for the roof rack on my 109 too!

Interesting that it has a NAS 110 badge on the back.

Those are NAS tail lights & the galvy frame is from a more modern defender. Perhaps someone did a frame swap on a NAS truck and painted it. The roll cage is decidedly not NAS. More likely someones ROW that they tried to NASify.

Well that Defender has been stuck in reverse since 2003. Safety first!

Could certainly be the case - that's definitely not a stock frame.
