The 2020 Land Rover Defender is here! Today I'm reviewing the new Land Rover Defender, and I'm SO EXCITED! This is the revival of the Defender name, and I'm going to show you all the quirks and features of the new Defender -- and then I'm going to drive it and let you know what I think of the new Land Rover Defender.

DOUGSCORE CHART: www.dougdemuro...
I was totally prepared to hear
“TTTHHHIIISSSSSSS is the 2020 LR Defender, and it is, in fact, the replacement for my 2012 E63 AMG Wagon.”
Why make one video when you can make two?
I'll bet he'll reveal his replacement on the last video he's before the pandemic broke out or on Thursday.
I think his next car is a new Corvette....
@@Maidenrules29 he said he wants a daily driver since his ford gt is his fun car
Maidenrules29 ell no he has the Ford gt. I’m gonna say Porsche taycan
Doug in ten years when he’s a billionaire: :THISSSSS is my private jet, and today I’m going to review it and give a Doug score
Doug in 50 Years: THISSSSS is my new casket, and today Im going to review it and give it a Doug Score
@Eduardo Rivero Mejía doug in 40 years when he is quadrillionaire:THISSSSSS is my new universe. And today i am gonna give itna doug score
And then i'm gonna take it on a flight and give it a Doug score
Doug in 100 years: "THIS, is my God title with bumper to bumper warranty. Today I'm going to create a new world, show you the quirks and features and then I will give it a Dougscore".

Me: "oh cool I can plug in an external light or something"
Doug: T O A S T E R
Actually, you cannot plug in a toaster. The plug says 180 watts max. A toaster is 7-10x that much wattage. Basically nothing that makes heat can be used there. Perhaps the smallest of minifridges, or a plug-in portable cooler. Fans would be fine. Laptops. Stereo, that kind of thing.

@@1996ChevroletImpalaSS hi defender!
He is still doing it
I literally thought the square on the window is the MSRP sticker...
Ho Kwan Yip the msrp sticker is a $600 option....
Even if it was, it would be more useful than the actual thing
My first thought was "It's okay looking but that sticker really ruins it." This reeks of corporate design meetings where everyone is too scared to just state the obvious. A random white square square in the window looks dumb as fuck, no matter how much the drones try to convince themselves otherwise.
Right, the reasoning behind it makes no sense
In the June 2020 Motor Trend, they feature one of these, and it’s kitted out with a huge outside box to hold your stuff where this white box is (along with a ladder)
You know you're in the US when this is "not that big of an SUV"
Ikr, here I am thinking "wow that thing is huge"
@@Mireaze You should see a Suburban or Expedition/Navigator. This is small, even to Crown Victoria standards
Yeah to me it looks like a tank. Doug is a tall guy but looks like a gnome standing near it. In a decade americans will probably drive busses to the mall if this trend of supersizeing continues.
What do you guys do if you have a wife and five kids.
Well it isn't really that big in Saudi standards
Doug is the kind of guy who can say ''This'' in cursive.

@@jackprick9403Hey Jack, it’s been great but I’d only recommend a defender if you plan on going off road at all. Otherwise X5 and X7, GLS, Cayenne, and Q7 handle better, much nicer interiors, more comfortable, etc… hope this helps!
Every other car: „This is cheap plastic.“
Doug rating the Defender: „iTs DUrAbLe mAtErIAl“
It’s rubber,
So at least that’s not plastic
@@penelopeboivin3191 worse than plastic. Infact the car looks like a cheap toyota
The amount of marketing this video will bring the Defender would possibly put him in running to be sent one
Tuchho Bal cheap toyota which outlasts american lUxURioUs cars.
If it is in fact rubber it won’t be more durable than plastic. But I’m guessing it’s a plastic with a rubbery feel. No idea how that will age.

TheBeavadelic you’re the only one
It’s actually some kind of support space for an optional ladder to the roof
This car seems like a reimagined Discovery 3 more than it is a Defender.
Its what the discovery 5 should have been
@@DR-uc4bj true ;-;
Totally agree. Should have been the discovery 5.
@@DR-uc4bj so glad someone else thinks the same. It’s an amazing car in itself but it isn’t a defender
Yeah i loved how the LR3 and LR4 looked and this looks more like those so it would’ve honestly been better if they called it LR5
It looks like a concept SUV from the early 2000’s
I was going to say the exact same thing. It looks like one of the dozens of Dodge concepts from 1998-2004
It looks like a 2000s wannabe.
I just commented that and scrolled down to see this 😂
it looks like a expensive kia soul

Doug is waiting for the convertible version.
Probably in a few years when he can get it used for a good deal
Of course with bumper to bumper warranty!
Doug: The 2020 Land Rover Defender Is the Hottest SUV of the Year
*Bronco has entered the chat*
LOL, the Bronco looks tacky and has cheap ass plastics. But you do you, lol.
christschool the new defender looks plasticky asf. Bronco looks the part of a tough suv
Right?? I don't think there was ANY hype over the Defender before it came out. I even work next to a Land Rover dealership and noticed an old Defender was sitting next to something new and shiny. I was like, huh, is that a new Defender?
@@Tripp55 Those old Defenders are expensive as hell. I saw a 1997 yesterday for $140k!
@@robertmdls4591 A 1997 Defender is worth $140k today. What will the Ford be worth in 20 years? $0 is my guess.
Hey everyone I've just realized my 99 Honda Civic isn't full of cheap plastic! It's actually full of a "durable off-road friendly material"
Might get one aswell to use for offroading
h
Off road friendly materials, I know right.
hahahahah
4Runner: Excuse me!!! Like WTF!!!
"Doug:...seems like it will never break down or disintegrate.
LR: challenge accepted"
LOL!!!! I came to say nearly the exact same thing in the comments
That rubber on the cockpit will look like shit in like 4 to 5 years. This is Land Rover after all.
Barney stinson? anyone?
It’s good to see the Ford Flex back with a lift and a new logo.
Nissan Cube or Honda Element lol
Not a big fan of the car
Problem is that even a Ford Flex is built better than this vehicle, I mean, Range Rovers are a Chinese car now and there's reports of protesters outside those plants about the poor quality, if the Chinese are protesting about poor quality when China is KNOWN for poor quality, that should raise some red flags.
@@darkmugetsu6572 It's Indian owned and built in Slovakia.
Dark Mugetsu Defenders are made in Slovakia (for eu region at least). And as far as I know, LR is owned by TATA, which is based in India.
Saw one on the freeway two days ago. Looks stunning.
Sunroof doesn’t work.
‘Pull off your rubber and throw it somewhere’ - DD
why do i know what that means
the.abhiram.r because you’re cool
Doug so in love with this thing he literally couldn't find a fault lol
The faults: 1) it’s British, 2) it’s a Rover
And it still got a 63/100 as a Doug Score lmao. Doug is like that teacher that refuses to give kids 100% on tests because "nobody is perfect".
Now its a Indian brand...... TATA has acquired Jaguar and Range/land rover
Krishna even worse lmao
He became blind to the fact that its absolutely hideous
"Eh, 5 seconds, it's adequate"
This guy losing track of how fast cars accelerate
Well, when half the cars you review are super cars with over 600 hp, average isn’t so average
I think he means it’s adequate for an SUV
@@bderkhan2925 5 second 0-60 for a non-performance orientated SUV (makes me feel a bit ill saying that) is ridiculously fast.
@Fa Ab if a 5.0 is doing it in 3.9 seconds it's got pp2 im sure
in a land rover he says adequate.. Any other car he would say "it's underpowered".
Doug, I believe the extra set of small tail lights on the outboard sides are required for meeting geometric visibility requirements for rear lamps in the US (can be met by area or by intensity - in this case the additional lights meet it by intensity). Since the tire is on the rear of the vehicle, it blocks a lot of the view (not meeting by area). But since the tail lights don’t bulge out of the rear end it wouldn’t meet the requirements. We make the Ford Bronco and Jeep Wrangler tail lights and they both struggled with this requirement during the design phase. Hence why the Jeep and Ford tail lights bulge out so far.
It looks like they forgot to remove the window sticker.
I thought so too
Lol
Lol that is an ugly suv
@@franklatin2411 omg its so bad lmao.
It's HORRIBLE!!
I get the feeling that Doug is being a littttttttttle bit bias in this review lol 😂
Yes
Hes stopped being critical for some time now. These reviews are shit now because of it
Fr that thing looks like sh!t
yes he does when paid by the company
If you haven't noticed, he favors cars from the dealers, and trashes hired and borrowed ones.
Doug: Loves the styling
Doug in the DougScore for styling: *6 out of 10*
It's because his Doug score is a joke.
He says he's aware of "purists" so he lowered the score because of this.
He said he loved his wife and gave her the same score.
“It’s not exceptionally fast, 0-60 is 5-something with the 400 horsepower engine...”
Yeah, that’s moving pretty rapidly for an SUV of that size, Doug
thats because he is trying to be objective. he may be loving it but as a general styling go its nothing to write home about
Doug: Thissss is the hottest SUV, the Defender
Ford Bronco: Whatever
🤣🤣😂😂 That's really good Bro👏🏿
As he says at the end, people who are into the original and bronco etc are a tiny minority
Looks like a supped up bronco sport
You can actually buy the defender
@@marufio you can buy the bronco. Ford wont start delivery of the suv until mid 2021but i think it will be well worth the wait.
Gotta love Doug: announcing his new website one day, and making a thirty six minute video reviewing a car on the next
AND unveiling his new personal car at the end of the same week.
Did not know rubber was durable until today when Doug told me 8 times in 4 minutes.
Because it isnt durable, its rugged. Big difference. First one lasts a long time, second one is designed to sacrifice itself to protect something inside.
Ever seen rubberized computer mouse? Ever seen 10 year old gross and sticky rubberized computer mouse? This is this cars interior in 10 years.
If only the engine was durable/rugged
o0owiisnawo0o Wiisnaw it needs a rubber engine
Rubber and plactic have changed a lot it is not anymore sticky as it use to be if it is qualitative one ( the worst i see was an old camry dashboard completely sticky almost melting down)
Untill the hot sun hits...
If Doug was Leonidas:
THISS.....is Sparta
*Rover looks like a hearse and not in a good Harold & Maude/ M5 Coupe way*
You nailed it!!!
THISSSS *
😂😅😅😅😅 I could hear this comment.
"THISSSS----- is SPAAHTTTAHHH 🤭
Impressive how quiet the interior is....ZERO wind noise...Doug: You are so cheap with the scores: The styling and the cool factor are both 10.
Doug: this car is really durable
Land rover: *nervous sweating*
Durable and reliable are different things
He meant the build quality not mechanics. So the Defender won t sweat in that matter.
Looks at Range Rover... oh boy
I was thinking the same. Yes looks durable. But is it durable? How is it going through snow? 2 feet of water? Mud?
World number one suv
That floating box is pretty bad imo, I thought it was the price breakdown sticker lol
Same xD
Almost wish they would have rounded out one or two of the edges of "the floating box".. maybe it'd look better?
facts
I would just wrap it black if I was to get it, which im not
me too I was like damn thats a fancy sticker lol
The "box" looks like the dealership window sticker.
Looks like a place for your racing number
Nah it's for white girls so they can buy the car and put stickers on it like Starbucks or apple stickers
big.boi• 50 years ago lol
thought it was a dealership sticker when I first saw it. LOL

Give me back the old model Defender
I wish, I saw one today I drooled
I wanted to see the center console 😆

Third row: * exists *
Legroom: * doesn’t *
Sad to say that’s just how it works with third rows. Third row seats are typically used for small children and not full sized adults.
Legless people: Yes a place for me.
@@kingjlinza * *BMW X7 has joined the chat* *
The old Defender didn't have legroom in the second or first rows, either.
Doug, the type of guy to like durable latex rubber in his interior.
I read durex...
@@lalalo41 well technically...
The material’s a rigid safe choice but is bound to be a sticky mess over time and doesn’t clean up well.
Just cheap plastic in the form of a polymer.
Durable latex rubber and a bunch of grab handles hmmmmmm
"New Defender" sounds like "Nude Offender" and that won't change.
"My nudes are offended.
How about yours?"
"Weird flex but ok"
Underrated comment of the year.
I enjoy watching Doug's reviews,always honest and to the point and informative.
Those rims are straight off a 2010-13 Camaro...
Or a 2005-9 mustang
Considering these are built in the UK, they most certainly aren't.
@@ollylewin lol please look up the rims he is talking about. This vehicle was built to be sold at a affordable price range. Shifter says it all lol.
HAHA OR A MUSTANG
Damn during the whole video I was wondering where I had seen those rims
I think it's neat that the styling looks like early 00's concept cars
Honestly I just think it’s ugly. The front end looks like a shrunken 05 Range Rover and the rear looks like somebody tried to upscale a VW UP! and failed miserably.
Callum Milner
I agree, it looks awful
now i remember why i hate comment boards. can't say anything nice without people crapping over your opinion.
My thoughts exaclty. Also the front end looks just like an earl 2000s land rover freelander
Cesar Romero No one is “crapping on your opinion”, they’re just disagreeing. If you can’t handle replies that don’t agree, don’t comment.
*Sagging Air Suspension has entered the chat*
Owned 5 Land Rovers, 2 with Air Suspension. 2 collapsed.
Jan 4 LR/RR products home, not a single one collapsed.
These new defenders are going to cost about as much as used hummers do right now. Wranglers, 4-Runners, G‘s & GX’s will probably retain their value a lot better.
😂😂😂😂
*Ford Flex has entered the chat*
2021, Hoovies Garage:
I bought the CHEAPEST Land Rover Defender in the USA!
Hell yeah Honda brought back the Element!
UK element
But even uglier.....
Big box go off-road tho
I know right the Defenders body style is a joke! It WAS such an iconic beautiful,
tough , looking beast 😩
Reed Spilsbury 😂😂😂
Summary: Honda Element meets Toyota FJ on RX-8 wheels.
And will fall apart in 2 years
@lulli sharma I drive a GMC Sierra
YES!
And Land Rover´s terrible reliability
It’s the rugged Ford Flex.
i’ve always found it admirable that if you go back to when Doug first started his channel, back when he didn’t get thousands and thousands of views on each video, he dresses the same. Always an undershirt and regular t shirt and shorts. If you saw him on the street you’d never guess he is a famous, rich, youtuber. He looks like a common dude and i think that’s why i enjoy watching him so much. I hate all these flashy youtubers
Nothing wrong with enjoying your life. I don't care about fancy clothes either, but someone does.
Seems genuine
I hate the undershirt
Same, i love how reserved and modest he is.
THIS is NOT an undershirt; it's just a shirt, with another shirt over top without bothering to look in the mirror. I don't have any room to hate on another man's style, but an actual undershirt would be a HUGE improvement on the double shirt thing.
I’ve watched a few of doug’s videos already and when ever there’s a house style outlet in the car he always says “you could use it to plug in your toaster”.
Or a blender
That is one of doug's quirks and features
The floating square looks like when you put a random square decal on forza
Fax
😂 I thought the body colored patch was the window sticker at first
I just got to that part, that’s so ugly I hate land-rovers normally so I doesn’t really effect me but common that’s the ugliest thing ever
Yes me too! Thought it was the dealer price sticker left on
It alright. It’s different but that’s not always so bad when all SUVs are starting to look the same.
Qiming Yang Patch is UGLY and Pointless
Hideous...I'd order a black one even though I hate black cars -- just to avoid that.
Who needs capability or reliability in an off-roader? It’s all about the ‘durable feeling’ interior
😂
I think the concept of "off roader" is different in the US. The wrangler is downright terrible for towing, and therefore is terrible for overlanding- what this is intended for. The wrangler would absolutely stomp it in technical terrain though. I'm actually in to it. It's as much as a wrangler and at least as big a mechanical peace of shit, but it probably rides well on the highway and it can tow 2500lbs safely.
grinchyface a wrangler is 20k cheaper? The base model defender is as much as a fully loaded wrangler rubicon which is a way more capable and luxurious vehicle.
grinchyface i live in the harshest climate in the world bro. Were the 80% of the cars are from japan mostly land cruisers and patrols (y61) rule the roads. Wranglers are doing pretty good. Jeep sales are increasing so we will see. As far as land rover goes 🤢🤢🤮🤮
Lift a lexus GX that is all
Imagine if it breaks
Endless money pit
Edit: imagine WHEN it breaks
That’s why you get rid of it within a year or less 😂
MindSET I was making a joke because Scotty Kilmer clowns on Land Rover for their poor build quality. Excluding the defender
Imagine if it breaks?
It's a Land Rover, as soon as the dealer takes payment the check engine light turns on
@@Stylofo4m "Best car on the Planet?" That is a stretch. As a Land Rover owner, I can certainly state, they are nowhere near the "best car on the planet." They are fairly capable off-road. However, their reputation for unreliability is well deserved.
I read this with the voice of Scotty Kilmer
This is the vehicle that my 2008 Honda Element wanted to be when it grew up.
That was the name of the Honda SUV I was trying to think of but couldnt remember what it was called
6 out of 10 on styling?! This thing is ugly as all hell..
"Completely re-imagined" Defender looks suspiciously like an LR3.
Its more Discovery than Defender for sure. Even in adverts reminds me first Gen of Discovery. New opening for Defender, new face.
@@jakubstrumillo total fail imo. Same thing they did with the Discovery.. looks terrible.
good thing i like LR3s. In my opinion. This is a discovery with defender styling.
@@MalrusOSC Defender with Discovery styling*
Looks more like a new Discovery, too soft lux looking for a Defender
What we asked for: " Doug DeMuro cargo shorts."
What we got: " A car bidding website."
Better than a 50 dollar signed photo :)
I would totally Buy Doug DeMuro cargo shorts
Diego Arranz Instead of sizes, they’d come in various Dougscores?
They should have kept the old defender look. This one looks like kia soul.
True it looks like elon turned it into a jeep
Finally someone who knows duff about cars
Looks like good old Skoda Yeti including Mag wheels
Yes, my thoughts exactly
As a guy who owns a Skoda yeti. I agree.
It even has that same shade of green as a colour scheme. It's truly uncanny.
New Defender is also assembled in Czechoslovakia.
@@SnickersTS So that means it does not exist, just like Czechoslovakia lmao
"Land rover thinks a floating square on the side of the car looks cool"

Talking about durability, this thing has 85 different computers (no joke). Wait until the fail...
A "6" for quality...it's a Land Rover, Doug...a...Laaannd...Rover! A 4 would be generous!
He’s not basing his score off previous notions...
I have always thought that Land Rover is a great durable and reliable brand.
I’ve got a 2012 LR4. Very reliable and well built. What model do you have Phillip?
@@Jarvisdell It's not. It used to be though, i would go for 90's land rovers.
Jarvis dell Even though Doug is massively excited about this SUV, the truly sad state of affairs is Tata-owner of JLR-is the largest maker of electromechanical 💩in the world. JD Power and other databases list Land Rover lowest in quality, reliability, dependability, and frequency of repair in the world. (Jaguar is third from last.) Anyone buying or leasing their vehicles should be prepared to drive dealership loaner cars for multiple days multiple times each year.
In 2022:
Tyler Hoover: "I just bought the cheapest 2020 Land Rover in the country, here's what's broken on it."
Spread over two separate videos
Wizard buys the white house
Wizard goes on a world tour
"here is what's not broken about it"
probably not in 2022, maybe 2040
I'm constantly accidentally releasing my hood while driving down the road. Thank goodness Land Rover has solved this quandary for me.
Glad I'm not the only one!
It's part of the required lock-out on any hood. Yours just has a separate hood latch.
It’s actually for security, you can’t break the window and immediately get into the engine bay.
No mention of that amazing ZF transmission. One of the best/coolest features as it makes the engine work/perform
looks more like the actual successor of the discovery
it does. not sure what else they could have done with it though but i think it works
True
This is what would happen if Lincoln tried to make a Ford Flex
@@17quattro looks like those two mated poorly and yielded an ugly offspring.
Very Very ugly and a bit disabled 🙄
there's a comparison on here someone in the UK did with the Disco4 (LR4 in North America). the 110 is quite a bit smaller in cargo area, which is why some will wait for the 130 model.
When you’re in love with a car: “Plastic is rugged and durable.”
When it’s any other car: “Why is there so much cheap ugly plastic?”
Wasn't he referring to the rugged and durable rubber interior?
But the interior isn't plastic... were you even paying attention to what he was saying lol
Sort of like when you go to a restaurant: Tastes Homemade
Cook at home: Tastes like a restaurant
9:30 “almost rubber”
20:02 “plastic”
26:42 “plastic”
I don’t have to Defender myself, Doug said it himself. Doug is allowed to be biased if he chooses, I just think it’s funny to see a car reviewer fawn over plastic. Wait, sorry... rubberized plastic.

Important thing about this car : In a year if the check engine light never came on, you'd need to check the check-engine-light.
I literally thought the square on the window was a price sticker...
LR has no idea how much of a deal breaker that stupid square is going to be.
Same! I can’t believe someone actually thought a white square was an appealing design choice! If I owned one of these that would annoy me to no end!
Totally. Perfect for people to tag it up :)
Wonder what exactly the design team was thinking with that. It's not even oversight. At least one designer consciously came up with that and decided it was a good idea.
Evan Allert don’t worry, you will never be able to afford this vehicle. Go back to your Honda Civic Pizza 🍕 Boy !!! 👦🏽 🧢
That new Honda Element looks pretty sweet!
What a funny, *totally not overused* joke!
First thing I thought
*By the way It looks like a concept SUV from the early 2000’s* 😆😆
IKR
EXACTLY! It looks like it is from 2009
Definitely. But not from the inside. Outside looks very dated
It does look like the 2004 Ford Bronco concept lol
-It looks like an old Range Rover-
It looks like a new Range Rover. 🤣
New Ford Bronco the new Defender for me.
Hottest SUV of the year?? Doug, come on. If that’s hot, my Kia Soul is SMOKING.
Plot twist- Dougs “new” car is actually the new defender. (Hopefully)
Hopefully not. Unreliable pieces of junk. Doug has been there, done that.
dougs said he was going to wait for hopefully a convertible option, and he doesn’t like buying new cars
I was thinking the same thing lol. I hope not.
This video felt more of an ad rather than a review though.
@@julioyobabyy he likes the car and a lot of people don't, he is trying to make more people like it
Hopefully🤞
Looks like someone made a big Honda Element with styling inspiration from the Nissan Cube
Hilarious.. and true!

With a mix of the jeep renegade
And then charged $75k for it... I guess it'll sell to the Beverly Hills set for a couple of years. All that rubber's gonna start peeling at 5 years anyway. Not gonna age well.

Part of me thinks that Doug's secret new car is actually the new Defender but I guess we'll see 😂
glya Same! I’m with you on that one
I like it! I got sloppy seconds.
It his new ride. He's not roasting it at all like he'll typically do with cars.
Is it just me but the new land rover looks like the mini clubman on sterroids

IMO, the small ones should be amber/orange and used as the turnsignal.
I think they are in other markets, but because US regulations allow red turn signals, JLR went through the task of making US specific red turn signals because they're "more aesthetically pleasing"
US regulations you have to have a certain amount of surface area
. Those are too small.
Eric In SF the clear part is the indicator on the UK cars and then I’d assume the red parts surrounding the indicators are the rear fog lights
Amber light shines through red lenses as amber, also the inside of the smaller lights is clear, which would allow to shine amber with little hassle.
it's amber, US is a weird bunch for allowing red as turn signal
that rear view mirror camera is brilliant and should be in every car
Finally! A Honda Element that can traverse shallow bodies of water!
That's exactly what I was thinking! Even the dashboard shifter is the same. Element probably way more reliable. Wait.. no... DEFINITELY more reliable.
They really blatantly ripped off the Element and acted like it’s okay. And the crazy thing is people will buy it
@@ZenEndurance An element is a 200k miles vehicle with just oil changes.
I thought the same. It is almost as much of a disgrace to call this a Defender as it is to call the E SUV a Mustang. What a letdown!!!!!
William Peets which features of the Element did they "blatantly rip off?" It doesn't have the Element's very distinctive door layout....or seat design.....or tailgate. Is any boxy SUV with a weather resistant interior a blatant Element ripoff?
Look at the description: He reviewed the X3M.
Yep
Glad I'm not the only one who noticed that.
Because hes an idiot
@@uruleworld1 no u
Damn, BMW's styling has changed quite drastically. Also funny that they've named it the "Land Rover Defender".
Design Team: We need charge ports.
Engineers: How many?
Design Team: All of them.
thats good men !
Mechanics: Uughhh more electronic crap that broke the car
13:09 Doug, you are the best ever at what you are doing and I don’t think there will ever be someone like you. Thanks for all the videos.
Looks like a really big Kia Soul
Yup my thoughts exactly 😂
But also much better looking
Is it just me or did this model look old in the thumbnail to you??
Or a stretched Jeep Patriot 😂
Mmmm 🧐 Who are u guys 😂 ? Surly 0% knowledge about cars or atleast this car !
Doug: "Rear door blind spot monitoring, so you won't hit cyclist or traffic.."
You mean elephants or antelopes?
Lol
99% of customers: no... I do mean cyclists or traffic. You know how crowded beverly hill is these days
Well if it will even make it there lol
Alternative title: In Defense Of The Defender.
Defending the defender
Judas DeMuro: Defenders of The Defender (2020)
He's not defending it
nailed it
They should’ve done what Mercedes did with the G wag and update the interior but leave the exterior old school looking. I like this car but it should be a different name imo
Design is fine interior could be better
I love how the tone always changes when he reviews a Land Rover. It’s like the the favorite child that can do no wrong. 😂
You just know he's going to get one
I thought he bought one instead of his station wagon but he said there will be a vid following showing off his new purchase. I don`t think he will make two vids about a Defender.
@@Iamwatchinit was thinking this was his new car announcement video at first, but nope. If he didnt have the g wagon, I bet he'd buy this. But his complaint with the Amg wagon was inefficiency, so guess a large SUV wouldn't solve that, lol
Oh, he will. In 6 years, when it's worth approximately one-fifth of what it cost new.
@@JonathanMayhorn while old ones seem to hold a pretty good value these look cheap and full of decreasing value.
With warranty ofcourse
Fanciest Honda Element I've seen
