      Most reviewers seem to be missing the point. It looks great (though a little too freelander-like for me) but the owners of the previous defender loved it for 2 reason: Simplicity, low cost of maintenance and repair and extensive modifiability. This on the other hand is yet another Discovery/Range off-shoot in terms of complexity and cost.
      LR could have made a vehicle to get more of the off-road/wrangler/land cruiser market but this thing will appeal more to the urban set than country folk. It's going to cannibalise the discovery market share.

      I do think that it seems to have lost the soul of the original; it doesn’t have any resemblance to the old design, but as this is going to be “it”, as you say, ‘will it be reliable’?

      Cecelia Ahern - 'Nothing is never nothing. It's always something.'
      When I was about 5 years old I tried to imagine nothingness, like it would have been before the Big Bang, and I nearly went crazy! I really took it seriously for that age, and was stuck there for a while. Funny thing is that I thought I would have the answers when I got older, but I still don't have a clue...

When I'm ready to buy my next "car," I'll give the new generation Land Rover Defender as objective a test as Rory Read does with his reviews. Thanks for the outstanding job with this, Rory! You just may have provided the review that tips the scale that'll return me to what long had been my favorite automotive marque! Andy McKane, Maunaloa, Hawaii.

      I expect this similarity concern will be addressed by the D5 ceasing at trying to be a part time, capable off-roader, as well as a family hauler (too much compromise !). Instead, it will be be full time, family with young kids, 3 row seat family car. It should soon lose the low range gearbox, air suspension and optional locking rear differential option, as it converts from the V6 Ford engines to ingenium powerplants, targeted at the heart of the family market. We shall see.

    Bloody heck, how has AutoTrader got about 10 times better at reviewing cars than the BBC? Oh yes, Rory Reid. This work (I say 'This work' not 'His work' as I have no idea about who does what production-wise) anyway, this work makes Top Gear look like The Teletubbies. Beautifully filmed, authoritative, unbiased and accurate. I remember seeing Rory's Ghost II review in 2015 on his RecumboCars channel, I was busy & distracted watching it initially and pondering on how / who filmed it, then all of a sudden was practically moved to tears* thanks to the ability Rory has to, well to grab you and just communicate.
    ('You were ready for the flaws, my friend, you weren't even ready for the floors')
    *I say *practically*, you know what I mean. I couldn't help it, I'm emotional.

    In my mind it's not a Defender replacement at all . It's just another very good LR high tech Luxury SUV for middle class urbanites, how many in the range are there now? 6? The Defender was basically a "tool" it was a small road going tractor and it was exactly what people wanted from them , and most were "commercial" vehicles so the VAT could be reclaimed. Only County models had rear seats.
    It's going to cost a fortune to service , if you scratch it it'll cost a fortune and it'll cost a fortune to buy but they'll sell thousands so I guess they've succeeded.
    It's a real shame they didn't actually make a Defender replacement in more ways than just a name.

    The old Defender was one of the most loved Overlanders. Because it was rugged, fixable and you didn't even need a screen to see the rear.
    The new Land Cruiser does that, but how far overland will this ever go?
    With the many variants of RR and Disco, appealing to all the urban folk, they have taken alot of love out from their rugged outdoor people.
    Its telling that there is no open version.

      Problem is that from Rory's comments, the waiting time for new toilet rolls is probably longer than the waiting time for a new Defender:-(

    I can't say my trip to Tescos or dropping the kids off at school requires navigating through these "waterways". Thank goodness we have roads. :)

    I dont understand many peple critisize defender using all round independet suspension without solid axle and ladder frame.Just lool back hummer h1 and lambo lm002,both of them using independent suspension but have incredible off road capabilty.I trust new defender has good off road capability compare to other branda and previos defender.

    I think Land Rover should provide a straight-forward manual transmition for the diesel engines as well as some sort of double cab pickup version to make it even more capable.

    Best review I have seen ! and I laughed, I love this vehicle! I have AWD on my SUV... I live in LA and people give me "feedback" about why do you have all wheel drive. like dude so have you ever been in a rainstorm where the streets are flooded up to the wheel-wells b/c the infrastructure can't keep up, the crappy streets are worse and the horrible drivers are now improvising but you need to get to your destination... thats why... maybe some day when I grow up I can afford an LR Defender with air suspension

    • @texlad04
      @texlad04 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I am with you on the logic. Here in Houston the roads are horrendous and eat suspensions on luxury sedans, especially all around air. My LS460 with optional sport tuned air suspension is shocking on our horrible roads. Some Euro SUVs ride like lumber wagons. I find however that many SUVs do better. Plus, we also have flooding issues. In luxury sedans we are better off with non air setups. It’s crazy.

    So I wasn't sure......and then I saw one in the flesh! OMG. If JLR can sort out reliability then they will surely sell these by the bucket load. Fabulous looking thing, so much more so when you see one in your rear view mirror!

  • @johankriek1306
    @johankriek1306 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    At last - the Defender's got a rear diff-lock! But why is it optional on base models? Why should off-road capability be "optional"?
