It seems strange to make this comment from Arizona, but as I’ve toured it and met my extended family, you are using the verbiage of my people there in that wonderful beast of a truck. Your editor and drone operator has done wonderful work capturing the breathtaking landscape. Can’t wait for the McLaren first drive James. Cheers.
James has to be the best car content creators there is. The variety and sheer passion alone has him at the top of his game! Its not just content, its an experience with James.
THIS is the kind of content I love the most. Not the flexing or hearing about what’s to come or building the brand. I want to see cars being used to their potential and this cinematic style is top notch. More please!
Love that vehicle, and that interior is something else all together. Just beautiful! This man just keeps bringing it to the table, over and over and over again! Great job with this one James👏
I have a 2013 110. I did a sound insulation stage 1 and stage 2 on floors, roof, doors , side walls. Then I had the car trimmer put in a good quality marine carpet through-out. The sound insulation you can do yourself. The carpet leave for the professional. I know you can get something from Exmoor, but to get it down really well you still need a trimmer. I paid AU$ 1750 (about GBP 850 / U$ 1220) for marine carpet fully installed and could choose between numerous colours. Front floor, seat box, rear passenger, cargo floor and side walls. Not only is it a lot quieter, the standard supplied speakers now sound a lot better too as the sound does n't bounce of the hard surfaces. Make sure you put sound insulation behind the speakers in the back.
Its good to see a Land Rover on the channel. We have owned one when we lived abroad; loved the ride over rough roads. Only dislike was the rate of wear of the suspension bushes.
Always nice seeing my home. Glen Etive this time of year is stunning. Maybe one day you’ll take it off road 😂👍 it’s a proper bit of kit that yes if you lived at the end of a Glen and could get snowed in
4:39 Great review James and congratulations on a beautiful purchase. A ‘TRANSFER BOX with LSD’ tuned to oversized tyres is very interesting and impressive what transfer box has used to replaced the LT230? Thanks
Good choice of location James. The car looks good.... stick with the tyres...it would look nothing with road tyres. You appear to have a trade plate in the back window....not registered yet?
my lightly modded Defender is the family favourite. Bilstein lowered "road" shocks, springs and antiroll bars, decent wider wheels and tyres, LED lights & headlights and some power upgrades. Perfect accompaniment to the Porsches and the daily drive A6 all-road for Perthshire hose-out interior for dogs and after-hike mud! (or carrying spares, oily bits, bikes etc)
And people wonder why I drive a Defender 110. That car is given me the most Hygge of any car I ever owned, easily beating my audis and bmws I have owned. Don't get me wrong I enjoyed the Q7 and X5, but nothing puts a bigger smile on my face than my 110. It will be with me until my end of days.
I bought a imported vintage Jeep wrangler with a lifting kit and it's amazing! Would love to modernise the Inside a little but all in good time 🤣 safe to say I get a few looks in my jacked up jeep! Yours is immense 😍
Yeah but the new g wagon offers more in terms of what u find awesome in this car, ruggedness on the outside and refinment on the inside, its miles ahead in terms of luxury on the inside, when you go offroad and u are in this kind of comfort, expensive leather big screens, awesome ambient lighting, 360 cameras, it feels otherworldly
The video itself is fantastic. Everything about it is great. Just don't like this uncomfortable military car since I first time got into it in a dealership. My first question was why on earth they had made a steering wheel almos touching a window? Why?
Awesome machine I have a ranger wildrtrak that’s lifted and widened I use for laning I get what ya mean about the hight and presence looking forward to more content with ya truck

Never has there been a more eloquent automotive journalist. Absolutely phenomenal.
Loving the cinematic content!
You never disappoint!
Quality...not quantity....
Great pace on the video, epic sound/music. Top of the game.
Love that vehicle, and that interior is something else all together. Just beautiful! This man just keeps bringing it to the table, over and over and over again! Great job with this one James👏
Great video the camera work is so awesome. I feel like I’m there with the drone shots and everything else. Great work.🙌😁💯✅
It was absolute pleasure James!!!Great content!!!Congratulations!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
What a place?
Great setting. Where is this?
Great video! Love the project Defender 👌
Also the whole direction of the video is very refreshing. Keep up the good work 😉
Hello love the videos and love that you have brought an off-road vehicle to the channel. A big jump from the normal cars you buy.
Just realised this was only uploaded today! Read a story about a guy who bought 200 defenders and thought, I want to see more! Great timing!!
That car is awesome.
Your content of this video makes you excited to see and know more about it.
Thank you 👍👍👍👍
That was pure hygge, greetings from Denmark👍🏻
That was great James !!!!.
The scenery, music, commentary, and the Beast .....Brilliant 👍🇦🇺
The quality of your productions can make any car interesting, luckily Thor is definitely interesting. Can't wait to see what you get up to this year!
That's good content... makes a comment from only watching the intro .
.. impressive stuff guys great work!
What a experience man you just nailed it. It's feels like i sm sitting with you and the frame. Last frame killed it 😍🔥🔥
Thanks mate!
Thanks for replying
Awesome looking rig! Real machine 👍
Great content, love the Defender!
I really absolutely love this car! It's simply out of this world 🌎
Sounds so quiet inside the cabin! I have a 2014 110 and the road background noise is loud. Your Defender looks awesome. Hats off.

So eloquently expressed the love of a brand! You get it James ‘subscribe’ hit! Hygge most excellent sir
Everything about this episode is great. That 110 @ Thor looks right at home in that wonderful scenery 👍
The cinematography is always bang on! 🔥
Big ups to the cinematography, whoever that is deserves some raise .
This is one of the best builds on TH-cam ever, I love that thing .
What a beautiful and cool car nature is stunning and a great video.
your passion for cars is why i joined this channel love it!!
what is the maximum height for the water crossing, as it does not have the tube?
your videos got so much better and the quality is superbbbb
nice piece there jww....spectacular scenery
Wow Mr Jww..... This is absolutely top drawer!!!!! The car, the surroundings and the cinematography!!! OUTSTANDING!!!! Well done!!! 🙏😁👌
Its good to see a Land Rover on the channel. We have owned one when we lived abroad; loved the ride over rough roads. Only dislike was the rate of wear of the suspension bushes.
Drone shots are beautiful 👍👍
Welcome back sir and congrats 🎉 on a beautiful monster. I love it! Nothing but the best in 2023.
I was just wandering y u resonate in the vid. How is it so stif? Should be a softie. Let some air out the tires
Looks great. Can someone help me understand this vehicle? Is this a new defender retromoded out or is this a modified older vehicle has new bits?
That's a beautiful piece of kit, love it! I want one!
Stunning Defender mate. Definitely a keeper.
Great to meet you today James… what a beautiful car and location!
Beautiful landscape and awesome Defender. 👍
Love the Defender, had a 110 back in 2013 and regret selling it. This, alongside a GT3 touring might be close to my perfect 2 car garage.
Gorgeous landscape and your Defender is a beast
beautiful vid, that landscape is alien like
Always nice seeing my home. Glen Etive this time of year is stunning. Maybe one day you’ll take it off road 😂👍 it’s a proper bit of kit that yes if you lived at the end of a Glen and could get snowed in
great cinematic performance !
It would have been nice to know a bit more about where you can buy one, and how much they would cost. Lovely video, great content. 👍👍👍
Car and landscape perfect match
4:39 Great review James and congratulations on a beautiful purchase. A ‘TRANSFER BOX with LSD’ tuned to oversized tyres is very interesting and impressive what transfer box has used to replaced the LT230? Thanks
The combination of this amazing editing and James is👌
How does one acquire this mclaren Canada goose coat??
Good choice of location James.
The car looks good.... stick with the tyres...it would look nothing with road tyres.
You appear to have a trade plate in the back window....not registered yet?
Awesome stuff amazing defender loving the Optimill removable steering wheel !!👌👊
That’s my dream vehicle, absolutely gorgeous and will go anywhere 👍🇬🇧
What a great road for the defender! Been on it with a GT3! Not so good! Health to Enjoy
🤤🤤🤤
Wonder how a 110 crew cab would look?, this Defender is the family car that gets handed down, generation to generation.
Is that a telescopic antenna on the offside wing??? You could have done better there surely.
Kind of like the word gemütlich in german. lovely to meet you, Thor
Nice video but how about actually taking it off road. Or is it just another Chelsea 4x4?
my lightly modded Defender is the family favourite. Bilstein lowered "road" shocks, springs and antiroll bars, decent wider wheels and tyres, LED lights & headlights and some power upgrades. Perfect accompaniment to the Porsches and the daily drive A6 all-road for Perthshire
hose-out interior for dogs and after-hike mud! (or carrying spares, oily bits, bikes etc)
This is awesome, how do I contact them for custom build
As a Dane I was surprised by you talking about HYGGE 😂🇩🇰
And people wonder why I drive a Defender 110. That car is given me the most Hygge of any car I ever owned, easily beating my audis and bmws I have owned. Don't get me wrong I enjoyed the Q7 and X5, but nothing puts a bigger smile on my face than my 110. It will be with me until my end of days.
Yes, it is definitely hygge. Greetings from Denmark✌️
Brilliant video . Where exactly this is in highlands?
JE did brilliant work on my SVX 10 years ago .
Love the car but "hygge" was said a bit wrong and fun way for an danish ;)
I bought a imported vintage Jeep wrangler with a lifting kit and it's amazing! Would love to modernise the Inside a little but all in good time 🤣 safe to say I get a few looks in my jacked up jeep! Yours is immense 😍
Good morning James Love the car ,great video see you soon!🤔 GUMBALL in Bonnie Scotland's regards alan
Cracking opening sequence👍
Love the aerial shots.
DJI Zenmuse X5R?
Love Glen Etive. Glad it's just up the road 🙂
Anyone know the opening background music?
James this calls for a road trip from Las Vegas F1 Gran Prix to Jackson Hole, Wyoming enjoy the Rockies here in the USA 🇺🇸 that machine will fit in
Amazing to see a roadtrip with that beast 🔥🔥
Hell yeah bro thank for sharing. ❤🇬🇧
Excellent. I have done the same with my Discovery 1.
Yeah but the new g wagon offers more in terms of what u find awesome in this car, ruggedness on the outside and refinment on the inside, its miles ahead in terms of luxury on the inside, when you go offroad and u are in this kind of comfort, expensive leather big screens, awesome ambient lighting, 360 cameras, it feels otherworldly
Hygge actually really translates do the Dutch word "gezellig". Funny I learned it here, didn't know this before now
The mountain crawling defender is top notch
The video itself is fantastic. Everything about it is great. Just don't like this uncomfortable military car since I first time got into it in a dealership. My first question was why on earth they had made a steering wheel almos touching a window? Why?
Just being able to build your own car is a cool thing 😎👍
I like it other than the patterned stitching on the dash. Question: What's with the USA license plate on the inside of the rear window??
Pretty capable machine, On pavement!
It’s interesting to see who owns JE Engineering at companies house ! Basically another advert ? Can we have some honesty on this channel ? Please ❤
That does indeed look like a hyggelig trip, what a car!
Wow what a motor . Where is that road too it looks amazing
Awesome machine I have a ranger wildrtrak that’s lifted and widened I use for laning I get what ya mean about the hight and presence looking forward to more content with ya truck
Awesome car James 🔥👌
Good work! What is the colour?
Mighty bulk and heroic strength but I bet you haven't got much right elbow room.
That scenery👀
Your only true purpose vehicle for every day use whenever whereever
Haha - Mr. JWW needs to drive a full sized pickup on logging/oil field roads in northern Canada. You get that feeling all the time. 😊
This thing is wild! We've got some pretty crazy Land Rovers in the pipe line 👀
That's a badasssss rig!!!! I love it
I do love seeing people enjoying my local areas. Now I just need one of those beasts for myself. Think they'd accept an Aygo as a straight trade?
You need to bring the DDE chaps over and take them on those beautiful roads..
*i would love to own of of these. It absolutely suits my personality & taste. How can i reach the builders (JE Motorworks) ? Any links ?*
Felt a clarkson vibe from the vlog🥹🙌🙌🙌
