Snorkel, as it's going to actually be helpful straight away. Spare wheel bracket is a vanity thing.

Convinced myself a disco td5 was the better option for me to buy this year. Think it may have to be a defender though now.
Damn you

Brighouse is about 40 miles, but I presume Steve would have been coming down M6 which I'm 2 miles from ;-)
Didn't realise he was coming this far up.

or the mantec one
I think I prefer the look of the safari one, but the mantec is slightly cheaper and also iv read stories about the safari one icing and clogging up in cold weather due to its ram style scoop
you can also get safari copies which are half the price
tempted but when it comes to not getting water in your engine cheap puts me off
Or this one

Spare on the outside only looks good once you have the big wheels and tyres.

I had a safari and it will fill your airbox with water. Pick one of the other two
