The best car ever made…!!!

Only A Series Land Rover will do Chaps..!! Thank you for the lovely video.. Cheers 🍻 From Zimbabwe..

Hello. Greetings from Paris ! I own a defender 90 Td5 as a second car. Never been able to high rev it and up shift quickly like a Golf or a sport car. The gearbox doesn’t like it and blocks or grind the agressive up shift. Especially 1 to 2d, 2 to 3d. If I up shift slowly on low revs, everything is smooth. Many thx for your feedbacks. Merci ! Julien

Great to see the SEB 6X6 cherrypicker in action.

Very interesting. Never seen this before. Presumably for dealers?

And that's why I have owned them since 1973! Interesting that the Arctic one had a Tropical top.

Best 4x4xfar

I love my 2007 Supercharged L322!

Definitely used early Td5 models, still have rectangular rear fog and reverse lights. I've even seen some early Td5s with Tdi stripe kits on them.

The Backhoe Land Rover is very interesting never seen that before.

Did You empty the total Landrover archive?😂

Thanks for uploading. I saw one of the RR at Gaydon recently.

I’d love to find a manual, gems 4.0 version with the non digital climate controls. Manual seats too if they made them. The most plebeian version of a p38 possible.

Awesome 😮

Owned 4; series 2 series 3 discovery 1 freelander 1 and I will never own a land-rover again each time I truly believed the reliability; oil leaks; rattles and water leaks had been resolved. I was wrong.

Few times have successfully used a P38 ( 16" BFG ATs) to recover my stuck L322 TDV8 (18" GG ATs) out of wet muddy fields (using 12 ton kinetic Snatch rope 🙄) P38 towing hard in harsh muddy conditions, can run rings round L322 terrain response system , in my experience 🫣 same scenario my P38 has recovered my tweaked td5 230 bhp 90 defender 🤷 & me brothers land cruiser all which came to recover the stuck L322 😆🙈

The best car land Rover.

I wonder which famous persons were at the premiere of this

I have an excavator . Caterpillar? No.Land Rover

I never understood the black plastic bumpers… I have an 97 autobiography and they’re painted, my god it’s so much better looking I think.

The definition of Marketing is the art of selling fried air they have improved a lot on that lately 😂

Everything is fine but not the air suspension

Thank you for this. Love my L322!

I've had 3 TDV8s 😵‍💫 an early tweeked td6 🫣 and 2 4.4 V8 lpg 🙃 but they all rot boxes 😥 That's why i prefer a well sorted P38 as my daily workhorse...... P38s don't rot out 🇬🇧👍

Thanks 👍

The greatest Rangerover ever built

Oh how far Land Rover has fallen in 2024.

Seems Landrover has well and truly lost their way

02:30 those new fandangled 'computers' will never catch on You mark my words

I love how early-90s it was. Those graphics and music really had me reminiscing on the era.

Cool time capsule of sorts, thanks for sharing

And still going strong in one form or another 👍

It’s good to know that even before they came out they looked like they’d been owned by an Essex ❄️dealer for twenty years

I’ve never seen this one… nice! It’s a shame Land Rover is 180 degrees off from what it used to be and they’ve forgotten the EXACT things that made them famous in the first place. Also, after having watched this entire thing…. Dayum…. This would have been EXPENSIVE to produce back in the day. I wonder who/how the original audience would have seen this. Great bit of film.

It has ist pros and cons but the td5 is a good lump

Land Rover - the best..😊👍

I had 4 nichtmairs 😢 now i drive landcruiser,i woke up finaly😂

Whose the presenters

Ahh the Series three, I drove from the artic to the desert and every kind of terrain you can think of in my Forces career. Splendid bus. I recall a REME Mech making a cylinder head gasket out of lino to get us home once. Superb Bus.

long distance hard towing 3.5 ton trailer across European Alps......... I always preferred a well sorted P38 4.6 on LPG 🇬🇧👍

Это лучший фильм о Discovery 2. Мне нравится - Discovery 2 and Defender tdi5.❤

Хороший фильм о Ленд Ровере. Мне нравится land rover defender, и Discovery 2.

28:20 Great bit of test footage from here onwards.

Unfortunately the new Land Rover defender is no longer a work horse!!! It’s a posers car!!! Nice video!!! Regards Ian 👨‍🎤🇳🇿👍🍸🍸

Ha! the LandRover: It had its good points - e.g., no rust. Good gearbox. Handling was very good for a high ground-clearance bush-basher 4-wheel drive. When it came out it pretty much had the market for itself. But when the Toyota Landcruiser came out with a four-speed gearbox, it was clearly very much better and LandRover sales dropped way down. We have a lot of sand in Australia. The LandRover didn't have enough power for sand, even with the larger engine, so you had to go in first gear, wasting too much time. There was a six-cylinder option, but it didn't seem to have any more power than the 4-cyl engine. A company I once worked for did a lot of remote work and had a fleet of LandRovers. Typical of British products, the quality was none too good. I remember going to pick up a brand new Rover from the dealer, and it had about a 15 degree lean, because the factory had fitted incorrect or defective springs on one side. The aluminium body was not strong enough for seat belts, so Rover anchored the sash upper mount on a steel member below shoulder height, rendering it useless. Noise and vibration at highway speeds was terrific. Rover engines when hot would keep going after you turned the ignition off. Company policy was to select top gear, apply brakes, and let out the clutch, thereby stalling the engine. However I discovered that you could stall it just by suddenly flooring the accelerator. Broken differentials were not unusual. I remember having to drive a company LandRover 600 km back to civilisation on the highway on the front diff because the rear diff had failed. There was no air choke on the carby. Instead, pulling out the "Cold Start" control activated an extra jet. The engine would always start, but in temperatures at or below freezing it could take a while. You needed to always be sure to have a healthy battery before going out in the desert. In theory you could start it with crank handle, but without a choke, you would not succeed in low temperatures. When the Rover engines wore out, they were way too expensive to rebuild, so a popular option was to buy a rebuilt Holden Red motor (6 cylinder) and fit that instead. A couple of companies made adapters so you could attach the Rover gearbox to the Holden engine. The Holden engine gave greater power AND better fuel consumption! Those Rover engines sure were inefficient and thirsty! After some driver complaints about the seatbelts and a few other things, the company wrote to Rover in England suggesting some improvements. The reply from Rover essentially said "if you don't like our LandRover, buy something else." So we switched to Toyotas. The early Toyota Land cruiser had only a 3-speed transmission. We told Toyota that wasn't good enough. They switched to 4-speed. And you could travel in second gear in sand where the Rover needed first gear, so you got to where you wanted about three times as fast..

How could Britain sell a company like Land Rover All the top companies sold off like a car boot sale And for about the same prices😮😮😮😂

If only I could get my hands on one of those

The narrator sounds like Quentin Wilson from old Top Gear.

It's a Simply Super wee film, just have to love it 😄
