need defender 90
Discussion
Trust me.
save yourself all the aggro, grief, breakdowns, frosty fingers on a cold morning, earache due to the constant drumming at 70mph, The boynggg the roof makes at motorway speeds in windy conditions etc etc etc.
Buy yourself a short wheelbase Isuzu Trooper Instead. Cheaper to buy, reliable, cheap bits from Milner offroad, just as good offroad, warm, faster, more powerful, just as good to tow with
I will guarantee the following with your Defender purchase.
1. You will need a cylinder head in your ownership
2. You will blow at least 2 head gaskets if you do anything like a 12-15k annual mileage
3. You will need to get your gearbox fettled because it rattles itself to bits.
A land rover is only any good if you are a farmer driving 30 miles a day across fields carrying sheep feed and hay.

Ive been driving them for work for 12 years now, 200/300 tdi/td5 in all shapes and sizes, we do 20-25k miles/year. Yeah they have their problems but as do ford transits, our vehicles get some of the hardest use i could imagine daily and stand up to it well. From 05 our transport company put us from wide wheels and tyres onto G90 7.50x16 which makes them look weedy and causes loads of damage in the fields.
When our vehicles get to the end of the lease they go to auction and go for your sort of money, mainly 110's but occasionally 90's
so you could look down that route.
Cant go wrong with a 90, big wheels, decent seats and good history
Good luck
