Land Rover Defender 90 - First month of ownership could prove expensive ! | 4K

  • My first month of living with the Land Rover Defender 90 75th Anniversary Edition could prove very expensive as we absolutely love it and don't want to give it back ! However it is not perfect. The Defender 90 has the shortest wheelbase of the range and this means the boot is not that big. For our lifestyle that isn't really an issue but it could be for a family requiring more load space.
    As always a big thanks to The Hendy Group for supporting the channel. Running the Defender 90 as a long termer is just fantastic and opens the doors to lots of cool content.

    Used mine extensively for overlanding in Southern Africa and absolutely love it although it’s a 110 D300. I’ve done water crossings where water has come halfway up the windscreen, I’ve done rocks, bad roads with a max speed of 15kph for 300kms, tracks with grass taller than the defender and cotton soil and mud and it’s not missed a beat and taken everything I’ve thrown at it in it’s stride.
    The side box is perfect for tyre deflators, fire extinguisher, tyre repair kit and tie straps for strapping down things like wood in the roof rack.

      @@user-yq1il2gg1e thank you.
      I believe it’s the same as any other modern vehicle. Also there is redundancy built into the systems with up to 5 backups for important systems. So for example if the car is overheating it will reduce performance to protect itself. Same as if it has a battery going flat, it actually warns you and asks you to start the vehicle. None of my old school vehicles ever did things like that to protect themselves. What is claimed about wheel sensors etc is absolute hog wash and not true.
      It’s not a perfect vehicle and there are a lot of silly features that if you know about are easy to overcome, but it’s not what it’s made out to be and any failures, which happens to all brands, seem to get more exposure than any other brand.
      I’ve done close to 75k kms or overlanding in mine and not had a single issue except a stone chipped windscreen and a broken clip on a mud flap after I did a water crossing with water half way up my windscreen - I’m not even sure the clip was not broken then it before.
      As a side note, I have recently purchased two Toyota hilux’s for my hire business (see my website), the one went into limp mode and wouldn’t even get out of first gear on the way to work the other morning. It turned out to be a vacuum hose had come loose in the intake. (Honest to god) so it can happen to any vehicle.

Most expensive test drive I have ever had! We placed an order for an X Dynamic HSE D250 in Santorini Black, now for the long wait of 9 months. Looked at used but they are ridiculously priced.

      Have to admit, I agree, this is exactly what the disco should have been. We had a discovery 1 back in the day as a family car. When it worked, a fab car and great for long journeys with the family. We tooled down to our flat in the alps often - it hauled ass in the snow, and on summer visits, we were able to use it to cut out a few kilometres of the mountain road to the resort by using the off road prowess plus using it to access some nice walks too.

      And the steel wheel would be more practical, I've seen alloys that got a whack from an odd angle, the bit with the nuts on were still attached to the vehicle but that's all, steel ones would still have driven home.

    Nice to hear you're (both) happy with the beast and I love the thought of a 3L straight 6 diesel. The boot space looks like it would struggle with our planned 2 folding E bikes.

    What puts me off is £90K for a machine with no more room than a VW Golf. 99.9% of people who buy this don’t need the 4wd or a Dacia Duster could do what they need for only 20% of the cost. As an indulgence and for ostentation, of course, apart from having a 100ft yacht and a Patek Phillips watch, it takes some beating.

    I changed from a 2020 D240 First Edition 110 to a 2023.5 D250 HSE 90 in March - like you the lost load space hasn’t been an issue. I have roof cross bars for my ex RR Evoque roof box and they are easier to remove and refit than the expedition roof rack. I specced my 90 with air suspension (having had zero issues with it in 6 previous air sprung Range Rovers and the D240 110) and it is firmer than in previous cars, especially when the 2nd stage of the two stage air bags is inflated off-road. Even with the D250 6 pot it is smooth, very very quiet and I’m getting slightly better fuel economy than the 4 cylinder D240 was in the 110 despite it loving to be driven much harder than the D240, it’s almost indecently fast for a Defender. I owned a TDi300 90 County for 21 years as a 2nd car, no way I would go back to it, the L663 is perfectly capable of being my only car. The only improvement I can think of is it is now so refined that it needs to become a silent BEV…………

    The 130 has the same wheelbase as the 110. They are both something around 118” wheelbase, I don’t remember exactly, but even though these are long wheelbase they are much shorter than utes like the Ford Ranger, which are just short of 130” wheelbase and it shows when parking.

    I was in love with the looks of the new Defender and was looking for something to replace my Nissan Pathfinder with 195,000 miles. I was able to test drive a Defender 110 Heritage Ed, and absolutely hated the experience. It felt extremely cumbersome, “like wearing a big puffy winter coat”, is the only way I can explain it. The dash is far to complicated, fiddilly and dainty. My wife’s Jeep JKU , by comparison, is more positive, rugged,purpose built, nimble, and recently went over the Tioga pass in Yosemite NP while getting 24 mph.

We believe this will be the perfect car for us (accepting the boot compromise) for driving holidays (half the rear seats down for luggage & wine purchases) … The 2024 model also has a flat floor (the stiffening bar is now out the way) & I am going for the D300 as the best sense for an LR as you state.

    I tried a 90 D200 myself two years ago here in Belgium and I loved it. It's a proper SUV! In the end I didn't buy it because my lifestyle doesn't ask for a rugged SUV and by 2030 the diesel will probably not be allowed in many places. But the Defender is so lovable!

    I drove one of these today at a Land Rover promo event, I didn't think it would be as comfortable as it is. I've seen a 2020 model with under 10k on the clock, it's tempting but I was primarily looking at Discovery Sports but they said I could take this out for a long run just for the fun of it. It's huge, but at the sae time I'm used to an XJ so it feels quite compact, I can actually tell where the back is.

    Took a 90 out at Eastnor for the Land Rover Experience, incredible off road, so capable, thoroughly recommend to anyone as it's a giggle and makes a change from track days, those cameras looking at the front wheels become invaluable, and wading to the point of submerging the front camera was interesting (Think it's at approx 90cm if I remember correctly). I love the look of them, and the interior is a fantastic place to be. Not the vehicle for me to own, but great fun none the less.

    What would interest me is are there any significant differences between having the spare wheel on the back over having it removed. What's she like to drive, live with, fuel economy, look like etc. What's that weigh 30 kilos? Shoved out on the back. Comparative test there Pete. Don't know about you, but it's really rare to need to change a wheel and there are lighter, smaller storable alternatives.

    Love the Defender but with 2 dogs and one of them a leggy Dalmatian I would opt for the 110. Which engine? - the V8 obviously 😁 I actually followed a 90 on the way to my local shop this evening, up a narrow Cornish country lane and they are rather chunky. I think the 110’s balance it out by being a fair bit longer. A neighbour has a 110 hybrid and I always give it admiring looks in his drive when I walk past with my dogs. Alas though, it just be a dream car for me 😢. Keep up the great work Ped - brilliant as always 👍

    110 & 130 have same wheelbase length.
    130 is about 30 cm longer than a 110, and all of this extra length is added on behind the rear wheels.
    I’d option any Defender with the clear sight rear view mirror, which would make rear vision much, much easier.
