Much as I love Landies and my 90 would be the last vehicle to go I just don't like
external cages.
I know they are hugely practical off road but they're not for me.......Sorry

I bet it creates a lot of wind noise and vibration after about 40mph. I had a roofrack on a Berlingo Van and that was loud.

it a Landy Speeds greater than 40mph requires a BIG tail wind so you wont get much wind noise

Nige - horses for courses and all that, I wanted to retain it's (limited) room inside. I just wanted some protection for if ( when ?) I go over
in it.
I don't think even the cage police could fault this one 
Ian - close, but not a P&P one, it's a Northern OffRoad one - very similar.
And you're right - wind noise is the least of my worries - tdi engine, 2 gearboxes/propshafts/diffs and off road tyres create wonderful
harmonics of their own

Work of art.
Regarding bends at the front. Yeah it may be weakER but I doubt very much that front section is going to fold back with all that other support!!
Now drive it like you stole it!!
Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!
Please read my ring story:
