100th episode! Thanks to everyone for following along so far - we can't wait to share even more mega Land Rover content with you 🙂
Having had the Ls3 and auto option, for a couple of weeks now I can honestly say it's a perfect match. And the way Dave was able to tune the engine and gearbox was amazing, so smooth and easy to drive in normal day to day driving, and then pop it in sport mode for manual changes and lots of fun 😁 Very happy customer 👌👍
Great content and informative and honest down to earth business with a passion that is very important!
Well done 👍
I’m a manual man love driving Roadranger 18 speed Eaton when behind the wheel of any truck!
Got a Defender 110 TD5 and have the luxury of a D4 5.0 litre V8 automatic which I only drive in sport mode or command!!
Congratulations to you and your team ❤
Thank you. Glad you found us and enjoy our videos
Best video yet, love the format of questions while driving. One suggestions, more of a look around the cabin would be great.
You guys need to make M57 kits for export. Australia is crying out for them!
Congratulations on your 100th episode. Always great to watch.
Waiting for the scram series...
Congratulations on ep100 loved it thanks for sharing really enjoy watching. Seem to of missed the overland episode looking forward to watching scram . Great to see your giving young guys a go !
Well done at reaching the 100 milestone Dave and team Mahker. Great first half breakdown. Keep it coming team!

@BigArch6564 bring biscuits

@@wearemahker I will try and get over before Christmas. But the cheque book stays in the safe!
Well done Dave/Chris & Mahker team for the 100th episode, all fabulous vehicles you’ve built so far and for all the future innovations yet to come - as I’m an old git now as well, I’d have to say an automatic would be a welcome upgrade, maybe I’m coming around to the idea of a big lazy V8? ❤ Mahker.
And Ben! It’s Ben that shoots and edits most of the vlogs now :-) (Chris)
Sorry, yes of course Ben 🎉
Well done gents. Enjoying this channel .
Thanks Sir we’re trying our best please share it with your friends much love Dave & the Team
FYI, Dakota Digital makes an oval gauge cluster that fits the Puma binnacle much better than the one shown. You can get a black bezel too, instead of chrome.
Happy 100th birthday! 🍾🥂🎂
Hi Dave, I want a reliable, mechanical and powerful defender, what engine should I put in my defender? Thank you
What can you recommend for the 2.5td5 engine, which automatic transmission is 8-10 speeds?(Discovery2 2000 )
I love what you guys do, but I am very disappointed that I sent an email enquirer about 6 weeks ago looking to speak to someone about a full rebuild I am looking at getting done next year, and so far nobody has responded to me, I know you are busy, but surely someone should be responding to potential customer enquirers. Mike
Hi Mike, sorry about this, sometimes emails get caught up in spam and we miss them. What email address did it come from or can you send a message on Instagram @wearemahker and I’ll ask Dave to look out for it. Cheers, Chris
Same here mate. Also heard nothing yet.
@@Chris-wz4zr please resend guys our email has been playing up big time info@mahker.com
Love these...
90 dodgy tyres when you know what they are going to do have the opposite lock on before it steps out and keep on top of it. even beteter on good tyres and you know it can happen. I only have a 300 tdi
Hi Dave. Just out of interest, what is the fuel consumption with the BMW 330D v.s 200/300 2.5TDI?
We’ve seen 33-37 from a 330d with a 6 speed manual
Sri Lanka is a better place instead of Bahamas for weather. Cost less too
Would absolutely love to visit!
You can’t legally eat a sandwich or drink a coffee and drive. Naughty.
In what country?
Manual please😃
40 grand plus the VAT…… so £48k then🙄🤷♂️ just bloody say that.
But the vat doesn’t apply to everyone. We sell into the EU, no VAT. We sell to businesses, no VAT
I think I need to become a millionaire, because my dream Land Rover Defender would probably cost around a half a million pounds..
some class videoes from yourselves.
Thanks Mark really appreciate it
