Great honest review of the Defender. Other then the sun roof issues, to know it’s been such a reliable and excellent vehicle, over all of that diverse terrain and 43,000 miles, / 2.5 years, is a good thing. The huge breadth of capability with new Defender, is most definitely a very strong selling point regarding the vehicle. Pity that Doug isn’t keeping it, and running it up to 100,000 miles. If after 100,000 miles, there had been no problems, that would certainly help to promote a message that LR vehicles have good reliability. I’m sure Doug will get another Defender in the future. Maybe 130 model ? Many more variants of Defender to get released over coming years. I’m sure the extra driver assist technology features that Doug wants, will become available on Defender, in the future.

From what I understand, all collision repair places regardless of brand, are backed up with hard-to-find parts. A friends kid hit a curb in with a chevy SUV during a snow storm and had minor body damage and she called about a dozen collision repair places, the quickest she could get it in for an ESTIMATE was two weeks, with additional 6-8 weeks for repairs to be completed. The worst she found was a place that would not be able to start work on the SUV for six months. Also, my dads friend got T-boned back in mid-November during a storm (everyones ok) but because parts were hard to come by (for a normal Ford/Chevy/Toyota/Honda whatever normal small SUV they had) it took them until the end of February to get their car back, they'd been driving a rental for 3-months.

This was such a uniquely honest and funny review

[@ggolds5]

Your videos are always entertaining. I find a few funny moments in this video, specifically you're forgetting a few more reliability issues mentioned in your first couple of videos on your Defender. Just like my brother. He had a Range Rover. Everything broke on it. Yet ask him 10 years later about it, and he acts like it was the most reliable vehicle he ever owned. Then he buys another one a few months ago, and aside from a "few" electrical gremlins, he finds it once again, reliable. You mentioned in earlier videos that the check engine light came on, more than one time. Also, the sunroof broke, not once but twice if I remember correctly. There was something else, but who's counting, it's a Land Rover product. The windshield. REALLY!. Full glass insurance covers it. However, if someone buys it already broken , getting insurance to pay is unlikely once the new owner takes it, and if paying out of pocket, well, lets just say it isn't going to be cheap. AND, all that said, I want one. I want to go right out next week and check out ordering a Defender. Why?, because Doug said it was just a blast to own and I freaken love these things. I had 2 Land Rovers and 1 Range Rover and they were just awful. The Range Rover Evoque left me stranded 3 times. I loved it. SO, just like a woman you might marry just for the good sex and nothing else, once she's gone you say, why oh why did I divorce her. Forgetting what a horror show she really was. Ya, on to another Land Rover. Why am I doing this to myself again Doug?. Why?.
