If you want amazing offroad caravans, Australia makes them! Bruder, Track Trailer, Lotus to name a few. And the camper trailers are bloody good as well, we have a CUB and it is fantastic. They are probably a bit much for many parts of mainland UK or Europe, but pair them with a reliable 4x4 and you can go most places (i.e. Landcruiser/Prado/Patrol etc).
@@kennysakala4839 Sometimes excess load - either the weight or the weight coupled with the gradient of the terrain. Some manufacturers don't put it in as much cooling as say the aftermarket because they are subtly trying to cut down on production costs.
Nope neither of these needs a resistor between the brake switch and the brake controller of the caravan ecu gets confused and goes into reduced power mode. Had the same issue on a discovery 4.
A Defender should not be 'perfect comfort' - sacrilege. I have been in Defenders a lot all my life, and 'perfect comfort' is a phrase that has never come to mind in one.
You have one of the most capable trailers in the world - shame you didnt go offroad and pull it up rocks etc - thats really what people want to see. If you're driving down an A-Road you might as well get a Ford F350 and pull a 40ft Fifth Wheel. Next time actually take it through streams / up mountains / through woods etc. Thats the only reason you would spend the insane money on a Bruder. And the Defender isnt exactly cheap either when kitted out with the necessary options. Off-road 4x4!!!!!
In Canada, had considered getting a 110 but seeing all the electronic issues really scared me off. Too bad, such a good looking vehicle and has some decent off-road performance. Ended up with a much cheaper, but more reliable Toyota 4Runner TRD Off Road. Even with all the aftermarket add ons (steel front bumper with 10K lbs winch, Toyo 285/70/17 AT3 C Load tires, 2” suspension lift, replacement UCA, Sherpa roof rack, additional skid/diff plates, lights, auxiliary switch panel, etc.) I’m still ahead $25K! Granted it doesn’t get the best mpg’s now, it is fun to drive, been great off road, no electronic / mechanical issues at all. When it has snowed in the last few weeks, people don’t want to drive anywhere, whereas I can’t wait to get out there … lol. If Landrover improves reliability (heard recent issues with having it towed, has to be flatbed towed) I might consider a change in 3 yrs. BUT, now Toyota has the new Landcruiser coming out and the 4Runner next gen coming out next year. Exciting times for folks that like these vehicles for on and off-roading.
@northwindsolutions They were reliable enough for Honda to rebrand them. My dad has owned 1 Range Rover and 2 Land Rover Discoveries. All were reliable and taken off-road every weekend.
It is a Discovery really. Just one without the styling of a bathtub. But great to see that the Landy build is still as incoherent as the old ones (not a LR hater either, I have a 90 truck cab, but still a realist).
6:45 This is a very interesting comment because in MY head, this Defender has always been much more of a Discovery than any of the new Discoverys. I expected it to be more like a Wrangler or the new Bronco than another luxurious road house thing.
Did you lock off the air suspension into non-load-sharing mode to reduce pitching? And set the ride height to that of the towcar?

I’m building my own for behind my hummer. So far I’m at 25k all used stuff and custom built. Mine only sleeps 2 separately. I also made a garage for my work stuff.
The reduced power ”limp mode” is most likely the DPF regen that has failed. All Diesel Land Rover gets this after 40000-60000 miles, many before that also, or if you are unlucky the crankshaft just snapps leading to total engine failure. But the car looks good and the seats are amazing…
There was a U.K. manufacturer of Offroad caravans, but the U.K. market didn’t get what they were about and didn’t want to spend the £60k price tag for one. I understand they couldn’t keep going.

Here in Australia, Brüder Caravans are definitely not very common due to their price and the fact they are made for extreme off-road duties. I own a Kimberley Kampers Kruiser S-Class and it is a very capable off-road vehicle and could probably go most places the EXP-6 can, and dare I say it has more interior space. Also, tow it with a Nissan Y62 Patrol - much prefer the 3T 5.6L V8 to that short wheelbase Defender.
@@SmallBlogV8 really! Perhaps they should have made it 110…….oh wait. I have a saying, if it looks right it usually is right, it don’t look right #shortarse
The Bruder is way overkill for the UK as I know it. It is better suited to more rugged tacks such as Australia Outback and the western US. Many of the tracks I have traveled in the western US are like driving down a dry river bed. I wonder if people are more interested in status or functionality in a tow rig and caravan? I initially looked at a Bruder EXP-6 but now looking at several others manufactured in the US.
