I was given to understand that the "light show" was actually to check that the trailer lights were connected and working o.k. (without someone sitting inside the car operating indicators, brakes etc., and someone else outside, checking the lights). From a Discovery Sport user manual "Trailer lamp test button:Press to start a 3 minute sequence for a vehicle and trailer light test"
@@AutoExport Well, what did you think the trailer + light symbol meant? In fairness, you did refer to them as towing lights though. Using them for other applications may be helpful and that is a good suggestion, but the last thing you want to be doing on a motorway hard shoulder is venturing to the the rear of the vehicle to switch on those lights every three minutes. That said, the red warning triangle is likely to be stored in the rear door I suppose, so it would give you three minutes of highly visible lights in order to setup your warning triangle and get behind the crash barrier.
@@andrewjones-productions Good point, after looking at again, as we didn't have much time with this on the first day, it makes sense that's it wouldn't work as effective as a hazard light, but definitely not something we've seen on another car so thought it would have been good to point out, but I can see people improvising and using it in other ways.
Is this middle jump seat in the front row worth it ? Is it good enough for an adult to sit for a few hours ? And then how comfortable is it to rest your arm when compared to the default arm rest option.? I have never been able to see any vehicle with it. Not even a demo or ones in the garages.
approx. in 7-8-years will see if this car match same quality with wrangler or prado or other best quality cars. if it does , in that case it will be a great buy. I deeply hope it will match. because the reputation of this brand is absolutely horrible.
@@johnreno8909 You could say it isnt even a paradox because wealthy people dont care about liability. They have so much money, they buy the big boys and if they break down, they pay the bills. Thats actual status.
@@fh2234 yes, i see what u mean but thing is that it is not about having a lot of money. those cars can leave u in the middle of late night at the rain in the middle of nowere with kids in the car. or lets say you are in hurry to the very importanat meeting of your lifetime and those cars will not start at garage those cars breakdow just even staying in garage.
no way you actually said "nice light show for when youre broken down" 😂😂😂 that is definitely for checking trailer lights as shown on the button my god 😂
not sure why they are so obsessed by the mid seat while the width of the car is not that wider than similar category cars…i would not want to sit in that tiny narrow seat in the middle..
they offer lot of seating options, including the regular 2 front seats and 3 back. you can also go for 3 front and no back which would be good for farmers or explorers that my need an extra seat from time to time but want all the space in the back for equipment.
I Love Manual Cars too, but its a fact that Automatic cars have better fuel economy and put less pressure on the engine. theres always the Manual option, im glad they've kept gear stick and not gone for the Range Rover twisty knob.

Thank you for clarifying this.

I like the Defender 90 it is beautiful
Overhead exhaust !?, its a raised air intake.
pull ur pants up mate lool. love how they blurred it

Love this car
Good review. I agree about 2 door v 4 door. Same with ford bronco. I think the four door looks bloated
These are beautiful vehicles
This guys accent reminds me of
Yuh nuh nutin juhn snuw.
They need to bring out a double cab
approx. in 7-8-years will see if this car match same quality with wrangler or prado or other best quality cars. if it does , in that case it will be a great buy. I deeply hope it will match. because the reputation of this brand is absolutely horrible.
The reputation regarding liability is. The reputation regarding status is huge.
@@fh2234 yes it is a paradox how worse quality can have a such prestige status. same about bmw and audi and jaguar and some other british brands.

those cars breakdow just even staying in garage.
lol jeep reliability is garbage. Having owned a 8-10 year old jeep and a new defender there is no comparison. Defender wins
A ground light showing the car is definetly no style. Toy cars have that.
Nice review but most of the things he comments on are extras , not the standard options
no way you actually said "nice light show for when youre broken down" 😂😂😂
that is definitely for checking trailer lights as shown on the button
my god 😂
This guy is hot
hi handsome. nice review and well spoken. please have 10 kids. or a large family. great vehicle.

who's idea was it to put a seat in the front row...That's so inconvenient...
that's classic of the Defender, one feature they didn't want to remove in the new model
It’s an option
I wonder, is it great 😅😂
The Pretender is plastic rubbish, with get this; an automatic gearbox 🙄

@@AutoExport An automatic is not what anyone wants when off road. The Pretender is a Mall-Crawler.
