McGuire:
Well said Gav, and Lee Celtic!
And, while everyone's stuck discussing matters, we'll just trundle past wondering what all the fuss is about!!! :D

except when it breaks down!!!!! :lol: :lol:................I would never,never have another land rover again,too expensive to buy in the first place,I could get an 04 plate shogun for the price of a 1999 LR 90 and i know which id rather have,they break too often,are uncomfortable as s**t,noisy,impractical and no good as an everyday motor for someone with a family............but oh yeah they are s**t hot offroad..............Id rather keep my Jeep anytime, sorry but for what i paid for it it would got me a 1981 series 3!!!!! and mine WILL go anywhere a landy will go
Jim-Willy:
Not 'out of the box' it won't i had one, NOWT is as good unmodified. I've had that truck 4 years and it has never not got me home. Folk buy old landys and abuse them and don't maintain them the cry when they break. They wouldn't touch a normal car half the age of the Landy they are moaning about. That rig drove the Scandinavian coastline in 5 weeks and needed one fuse.......
BK:
yeah,id say that you were right when you say "out of the box" but really they are not THAT good they are only a 4x4 the same most others are,and yes,people wouldnt touch another car as old probably because they could get another car ten years younger for the same price!!!.....they are too over-rated and too expensive for what they are....sorry but its simple as that....... :)
Disco Matt:
I would say that Defenders are overpriced now - certainly around here. For the same money as a tatty Defender I could buy a good Disco and upgrades that would walk all over a standard Defender. The Disco is also a lot more comfortable.
