spare wheel

(1/2) > >>

Plum:
thinking of putting me spare on the bonnet of me jeep (like the old landies) however someone somewhere,   cant quite remember ? ? ? ? "tipical"

said i wasnt allowed cos of the age of the jeep " its a 91 ". . . . . ? ?

anyone know anything ? ? ?

hopefully this is the right spot for this q

Cheers for now . . . . . . . .Plum. . . . .

Bush Tucker Man:
Someone's probably thinking of 2 things.
1. Bonnet mascots are illegal on vehicles registered after a certain date {I think??)

2. Type Approval(?) regulations for post 1.8.98 vehicles.

I don't foresee any problems on that score, even factory fresh Defenders still have the bonnet mounted option as far as I know
Special Vehicles certainly mount them on there (they modify the 110/130 for the Public Utilities etc...)

Did the person actually meant that a proper mounting kit is not available?, & hence a home-made kit would not be type-approved??

Plum:
Thats the prob BTM cant remember its just in the back of me mind,  anyway ill give L/Rover a bell an if its good enough for them then it'll be good enough for moi ! ! ! thanks again . . . . . cheers Plum. . . . .

Plum:
Sorted see Jeep section ! ! ! !

Xtremeteam:
BTM,the bonnet mounted spares arent an option AFAIK due to the bonnet deflection  :lol:  ontop o the engine,

thus why i think all the wolfs have a side mounted spare wheel
