From when I was three years old up to the age of 14, my Dad owned a Land Rover Defender identical to yours except for that it was dark green instead of white. We lived in the middle of the forest and so our driveway was just a track mix of sand and earth which meant that the Land Rover got tested every single day. It definitely hardly ever lets you down and will remain consistent with its terrain capabilities for years. I can't wait to see you drive and experience the unique grandeur and majestic nature of the Defender throughout your travels. It's going to bring so many nostalgic memories back for me. The thought of it makes me want to buy one myself xD haha
Awesome time to buy one too! They are stopping production next year sometime so in a few years the value will go up as more people will want them🚗 just one more year until I have the compulsory minimum of 3 years experience until I can drive ours!
Time To Pretend is such a well-known and awesome song from MGMT. I'm really looking forward to your next vlog! Pumba is a cool name, good luck on your adventures! Thanks for sharing :)
I've always loved, loved, loved the Land Rover Defender. Unfortunately they stop selling them here in the U.S. years ago. I wanted one so bad. Congrats on your purchase.
Wow, congrats Ben! You'll have SO much fun with Pumba (better than Daisy!)! Excited for you and Nicole and the new Vlog! I used to listen to MGMT a LOT a few years ago. Regards to Andrew tho. :)
Muhammad Faizul you know she was just kidding, but she's a big Landy fan, she's a great driver so I'm happy she'll be taking care of Pumba, besides she is my girlfriend so we share a lot :)
7:22 Why is the truck driving in the bicycle lane? Sounds like you prefer Pumba. If so, perhaps Daisy could be its middle name? Then it's full name would be Pumba Daisy Brown, lol. You do realize that it's just a vehicle, not a person or a pet. Anyway, I hope you have lots of fun in Nicole's Landrover. Funny how you and Mr. E were inspecting it after you bought it. Thanks for keeping us entertained, when some of us should be working!
Do you use anything to not get water drops and fog on your GoPro lens? I've noticed you always seem to have a clear lens in the water! Keep up the great work Ben! :)
You are supposed to spit on it like the nasty slimy spit and rub it on a couple times. My uncle does surfing photography and thats what he does, you could also buy products but this is obviously a cheaper method.
Just to state a point from a Land Rover enthusiast LandRovers are not cars, trucks, jeeps a lorry or anything other than a LandRover :) but awesome vlog too
Do your research on the speaker system Ben :) Music can make and rekindle memories, You can pick up very good sound systems for reasonable prices if you know what you are doing which I am sure you do, Good luck with Pumba!
love your videos man , you have really inspired me to start travelling more , i just came back from Indonesia filming with the BBC :) it was awesome , next year i am just going to pick somewhere random on a globe and just go !
Do you have a plan for Pumba when you go back to England? I mean, are you going to sell it or store it somwhere? Maybe you can ship it back to England and enjoy it there aswell? I do have to say I am extremily jelly at you for having this car, it is soo cool!
A lot of undercover customs agents here want to know if you'll be taking the Land Rover back to the UK. (kidding) Driving it from Capetown to London would be interesting. I love the UK, London, Lake District, Scotland, Wales, haven't been to Northern Ireland. But I think a Land Rover is more useful in South Africa.
Ben:"So much room for activities back here"
Mother in law:"Ok we don't want to know"
lol thats golden.
Yeah, she knows :)
Haha Karen is great with banter, had to leave that bit in haha :P
That's great banter, it really is
Living vicariously through the past right now. This video brings back a lot of good memories watching the vlogs
Hahaha, Nicole's mum at 10:26, "Okay we don't want to know"!
I'm happy for you Ben! All the hard-work pays!
Thanks buddy :)

10:24

I died laughing. Misinterpreted Step Brothers reference: "So much room for activities!"- Ben. "Okay, we don't want to know." - Nicole's mom.
Congrats Ben. Hopefully many cool adventures and videos will be made in the new land rover! :)
First song you should blast when you update the sound system is: Circle of Life. With a name like Pumba it's only right! Lol.

OMG MGMT are one of my fav bands ... thats epic !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm so excited for the adventures to come

Ben has his own wheels in South Africa! YES! Check his excitement at 5:40!
Super duper ruper envious of the Landy/Puma Surf wags by the way 👌
YESSSS ! The song when the vlogs were on ahhhhh good vibes :)
Ben: "There's so much room back here for activities"
Nicole's Mom: "Kay, we don't want to know."
LOL
Welcome to the family Pumba
So happy for you.
I love how I tweeted you about more surf footage and you respond in your latest two vids with surfing! Yes ben! Keep it up -satisfied viewer
Aww daisy the defender had a real ring to it.
Omg, a hike with Andrew!!! Awesome news:) and your car is cool:)
went off-roading in a Landy whilst on a trip to Cyprus. They're amazing!
So happy for you! Enjoy it.
Do you use anything to not get water drops and fog on your GoPro lens? I've noticed you always seem to have a clear lens in the water! Keep up the great work Ben! :)
I love you
You are supposed to spit on it like the nasty slimy spit and rub it on a couple times. My uncle does surfing photography and thats what he does, you could also buy products but this is obviously a cheaper method.
you should literally just lick the lens with with your tongue often when using it in the water
Hey dude, sorry for late reply! I actually just keep the lens clean hey, seems to work! take good care of the case :)
***** Ah ok, thanks! Keep up the amazing vlogs man, inspired me to do my vlogs from Cyprus! :) #PumbaTheLandy
My face when you said "lead singer of MGMT" was a look of pure amazement. ARE YOU KIDDING ME AGHH
Wow No way!! Andrew from MGMT!???? Thats was cool omg. Cant wait to see it!

Very excited for you! Super cool Landy.
Happy for you Ben!
***** can't wait for the adventures you will be going on with the Land Rover! I'm excited due to the fact you can mount the go pro in the car :)
Magic at 5:38, Nicole was in tune with the background music :')
You should stick a Ben Brown logo on the side & maybe a little sticker stating the car's name ;)
I love MGMT.
i really want to go to cape town every time i watch your videos!
Loving the Land Rover 👍👌
I need to try surfing!! It looks so fun!
Anaconda playing at 4:53 I actually laughed so hard it wasn't even that funny
Just to state a point from a Land Rover enthusiast LandRovers are not cars, trucks, jeeps a lorry or anything other than a LandRover :) but awesome vlog too
OK, thanks. I called it a vehicle, because car, truck, and van just felt wrong!
Landy all day! :D
Hey Ben!! :D
Hi Ben if a landrover dose not leak oil it means there no oil in it by the way I love the defender I have just got my 3rd 300tdi discovery

Do your research on the speaker system Ben :) Music can make and rekindle memories, You can pick up very good sound systems for reasonable prices if you know what you are doing which I am sure you do, Good luck with Pumba!
Congratulations Ben!
