f you’re a Land Rover owner with a keen sense of adventure and someone who likes to keep their Landy off tarmac as much as possible, then it’s wise to deck out your off-roader with more than just some decent rubber. Protection should be high on your priority list, but this can come in all manner of items, from your diff guards to your tree sliders. But chequer plating is a quick way of ensuring your bodywork isn’t being probed by some stubborn bush. And if you’re after chequer plating, there is only one place to visit: M12
Off-Road. They, quite literally, will have you covered. Take this selection, for example. Here you have a set of 2mm-thick steel plates, beautifully crafted for the wings of your Defender. They’ve even powder-coated them in black for a fancy look, while still being all the durability you need to protect your Land Rover. There are numerous different sets available, whether you want standard cover for your wings or whether you’d like to go the whole hog and look like you’ve driven the vehicle through a chequer plate manufacturing plant. The choice really is yours.
It goes to show, however, that some of the simplest of products can often be some of the most necessary. And seeing as you’ll find it necessary to see what else this M12 outfit can provide you with, we thought we’d leave you their website details here: www. m12-offroad.co.uk

We like those Masai people – as opposed to the Maasai people, whom we are a bit nervous of. People shouldn’t be that tall and slim. Apart from Victoria’s Secret models, obviously. Anyway, the people at Masai make their own front winch bumpers for Land Rovers, and jolly robust they are too. The materials they use are zinc-coated steel for the main construction. This is then powder-coated with black paint, but you can paint it to match your own vehicle if you choose. And doesn’t a colour-coded bumper look smart. It’s delivered in three parts, and we can’t see any of our readers really struggling with that particular jigsaw. The bumpers will fit most winches, and will fit onto Land Rover Defender 90 and 110 models. The price is £330 and that includes VAT. So if you’re liable to bump into anything, you’d best fit one of these first. Find them at www.masai4x4.com.
