Carlos PaulJun 12, 2011 Land Rovers beats everything !!!!
Patrick SchalkMay 03, 2011 The H1 maybe. But not the other ones.
Spencer PeirceMay 01, 2011 I can't believe this article is up! I JUST passed an old rigged up defender on the highway! Gave him the thumbs up! It was awesome! I would take an old defender but pats right, I doubt anyone will take it seriously besides some prick w/ daddy's money
Andy RogersMay 01, 2011 @Ian
But here though, Land Rovers and MUCH more expensive. I'd take a Defender over a Jeep, but I would not be able to buy one any time soon
Tyson BroadbentMay 01, 2011 Sitting in a '95 RHD 110 right now :)
Kyle WyattMay 01, 2011 Are you kidding '97 defenders still go for 30-50 grand how do you call that bad resale
Patrick KennedyMay 01, 2011 I'll take a jeep. Like Patrick said, very easy to maintain. Not to mention, most land rovers have awful resale values
Patrick SchalkMay 01, 2011 Everyone knows this is just gonna be another mall crawler. I'll take the jeep. Cheap, cheap parts, can change my own oil, and will be able to outperform this. Booyah!
Julian PilinciMay 01, 2011 I think Blake was talking about the Defender, not Land Rover in general.
Tyson BroadbentMay 02, 2011 Isn't the Hilux more of a tundra?
Patrick SchalkMay 02, 2011 And Toyota Hilux. That's one bad truck
Patrick ShortMay 01, 2011 if you live in Canada you kinda need an SUV in winter
Will ConoverMay 01, 2011 Ya they made one. Here some stats
Top speed; 180's
0-60; under 5 seconds
Will ConoverMay 01, 2011 The D8 is that crazy fast Spyker. It's also called the peking to paris
Chen Edward SongMay 01, 2011 Hummer H1 also the best car for off road
Nick MorellaMay 01, 2011 Yea, the original ml320 could handle itself off road as well, not to mention the porsche cayenne, with a good set of off road tires that thing can cross rivers... (and yes, I've seen pics of it doing so..)
Will ConoverMay 01, 2011 And what about ssuv like the Q7, D8, ml63 AMG
Jeremy SiebertMay 01, 2011 U made me authorize Facebook w/that comment.
Land Cruiser, LX470, any Range Rover or Land Rover profuse accept the Sport & a few other Lux SUV's would leave the rap-video Navigator @ the Trail-head.
Andy RogersMay 01, 2011 Land Rovers and Jeeps are the only SUVs I would ever consider (the whole range) to be cool
Description: What's known at this point is that a new Defender would likely feature an adaptable chassis that will fit a variety of body types such as pickups, wagons, and convertibles. Once Land Rover has fi...Add Comments0
Tyson BroadbentMay 05, 2011 This was first though, but it shares some qualities with those cars.
Peter BruschiMay 04, 2011 is it me or does it look a little like a 60s bronco crossed with a wrangler with landrover grill nd other junk on it
Tyson BroadbentMay 02, 2011 Went around Australia in a 15 year old Defender 110. No aircon, or anything plush, but it was great! Just kept going and going! Way better than a jeep!
Patrick SchalkMay 02, 2011 And that's exactly what they are for. Despite all those things people still buy Jeeps because they are good at what they do.
Adam SampsonMay 01, 2011 Might be cheap to fix in the US but anywhere else parts are pricier than
Mercedes.
Adam SampsonMay 01, 2011 Pedigree's all well and good, but when your up to your windows in mud u want a landcruiser or a patrol. The defenders are good too, but jeeps are shocking. Good when they work properly, but there's the problem.
Mattaius YoungerMay 01, 2011 Jeeps and land rovers are the only two 4x4s with pedigree - although some models are sanitized for consumption (LR4, Cherokee, Patriot etc) the 'originals' of the Defender and the Wrangler ate NOT SUVs but proper, bare essentials offroaders
Ahmed HanifMay 01, 2011 Yea, I'd buy a wrangler instead..
Patrick SchalkMay 01, 2011 Ian Jeeps actually see trails, mud, dirt, water, rocks, etc. LRs see speed bumps in the mall parking lot and water when it rains.
Cody MitchellMay 01, 2011 Ugly.
Go buy a Jeep instead.
Shaylen Kumar PatelMay 01, 2011 This will probably be expensive as hell. But I would buy it
Julian PilinciMay 01, 2011 The Defender is the best off-road ever!
Morgan DameMay 01, 2011 I see deffenders in my town all the time there's at least 6 of them
Alex CameronMay 01, 2011 Sweet design, not so luxury based it would seem
Mattaius YoungerMay 01, 2011 Ahmed - I think you'll find it's the other way round
Ahmed HanifMay 01, 2011 Lol looks like indian Tata jeep..
Jeremy SiebertMay 01, 2011 @Carson: it's called a departure angle. Hang your but way past the rear tires and you'll be dragging it off rocks, through sand dunes, or into the mud.
I've got 2 Jeeps and this is one vehicle I'd trade for. Beastly
Mattaius YoungerMay 01, 2011 Drew seriously - farmers all over the place use Defenders as they are 4x4s not SUVs. Also out of interest...in Iraq the US special forces used defenders instead if Hummers because they were far supierior over the desert etc.
Ian Richard HendryMay 01, 2011 You don't know what you're talking about Drew. Go into the mountains of Wales and all you see farmers in us Defenders. They are hugely competent off road.
Andy RogersMay 01, 2011 @Ian
Yep. Not one of the best looking car's in the world, but it's a Land Rover. What else needs to be said?
Land Rovers beats everything !!!!
The H1 maybe. But not the other ones.
