    surely customizing your defender the way you would actually like it wouldn't cost nearly as much...

    cool defender and it looks badass, but it's funny how you show that it's off road capable by goin through a water crossing that a Nissan rogue can ease by..

    I love my Defender 110, and it’s the older TD5 version. I sold my BMW as it never came out of the garage....l preferred driving the 110.
    The Land Rover has so much character, and you really need to DRIVE it, you can’t just sit there and steer.
    Had it five years, done 50,000 miles in it (was already nine years old when l got it)
    And it’s worth more than l paid.

  • @Thecougar66
    @Thecougar66 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I think the last of the Discovery 2 td5 is the one to have. Almost all the off road ability of the defender but with comfort, space and more refinement. Still painfully slow but very tuneable. Mine has 158k on it and still sweet as a nut. I have a new 530d too but the Landy feels part of the family. I think it's great, but I honestly don't know why🤔

    You just don't get Defenders do you. Your wrapped up with the ideology that you need air conditioning, That no one would want to hear the engine. I have a mercedes clk and a Landrover 90. I get no fun in the Merc hate the damn thing .Zero character. The Landrover is a family member it makes all sorts of noises I love every mile in it . It has all it needs. I don,t even need a radio I love the beat of its heart more . You are a typical modern driver looking for silence a 100 gadgets you don't need. Had mine 17 years and worth still what I paid for it runs on very little cost. I fix everything myself. It has never let me down.. It is classless and unpretentious. I could be a pauper or a Lord no one can judge me no one can catch me in the mud , snow ,flood , or towing capacity. Phil

    Why don't these have snorkels so that the truck can get in deeper waters

    Yeah, but the luxury of a Land Rover comes from its utilitarian purpose built ascetic. If you want leather and shiny plastic, you would be better off with a Cadillac Escalade.

      Michael Walker or a Range Rover. More luxurious than an Escalade but still with that Land Rover DNA
