JIMNY vs DEFENDER? WE'RE SELLING BOTH...

[@henrygreen19]

After 5 Landies I just can not get enough of my Jimny. Still a Landy fan, but for what I now need, will never go back !

[@keithfox9644]

The Land Rover discovery 1 is the perfect inbetweener between a Defender and a Jimny with most of the perks of both. It can be as a daily runner, weekender and long distance tourer.

[@HendriMouton]

They're really capable vehicles but mine was getting too old and the running costs were double Pugly's at the time. Maybe if I could find a neat 300tdi

[@homie81]

I Just bought a second hand jimny gen3 with only 15000 km. Thinking about raising suspension and some nice AT tires. You got any suggestions? Greetz from the Netherlands 😉

[@jordankruger385]

Well its sad to see these vehicles go. I really enjoyed seeing how far the Defender has come. I've got a TD5 130 and i love it. But it all depends on what you are getting in replace of it. But at least you got to experience the community. Can't wait to see what the next project is.

[@HendriMouton]

It wasn't an easy decision at all and I'll always have a soft spot for a Defender. Hopefully one day I can just add to the collection of vehicles instead of having to sell a project. The next one is a Legend😁

[@qswedasf]

I also got a ranger for touring. Tyres, suspension, bumpers and plates and I still do 4x4, just not extreme rocks where I can tear body..

[@nomadicescapade2333]

Awesome video Hendri, Always love some honest and unbiased feedback on the vehicles.

[@michaelsarahadventures]

Thanks for the great send-off video Hendri. I'm already missing the Jimny, but excited for the new adventures

[@ronny5764]

Howdy guys. Thx for great vid's on the Namaqua eco routes. I'll be doing it soon and wanna know which is the best app I could use on my Samsung cell for this propose..

[@yusufakoodi6627]

Cant wait to see the new replacement!

[@brendonfleetwood9148]

I'm a Landy fanboy. Got a Discovery 1 V8 as my first vehicle. Next on my list would be a mid 2000's Defender 90 to do some cruising for the December holiday

[@jvljn8903]

One constant is change 🤣 I have my Defender 110 TD5 SW cause of these videos... Had a *gem of a 4x4 Courier 2.5TD which I sold to get into Defender. I really miss the get in and go of the Ford... But the space inside the Landy and the atmosphere with the family on a trip cannot be beaten. Good luck with your next project, and don't let the Borg accumulate you... *only realised after getting Defender

[@chrisengelbrecht1839]

What bakkie next??? Awesome video like always man. production quality is great!

[@sarahgalloway8883]

Awesome video. Looking forward to all the new adventures with the new setups!

[@ei9ju]

Amazing to think the defender would do all that & more whilst towing the Jimny if need be.

[@DieterPey]

Nice video! Onto the next adventures!

[@BryanRock505]

Im have an old Jimmy as my daily driver and wouldn't change it, only for the new gen lol

[@HendriMouton]

Great 4x4s! I really enjoy them

[@romulusoverland314]

Koebaai Pugly, may your new owner giggle with delight when hearing burbles of pleasure :D I reckon Hendri will be getting a GD6! :)

[@renaldogeldenhuys2361]

What's the replacement for the Landy?

[@geoffreyhayward3760]

Just shout when you want a canbus delete for the Ranger's headlamps, got so tired of mine tripping I made my own circuit board.

[@vlogofexploration5049]

I don't think you could of done a better job on your THUMBNAIL!!! You made me stop what important things I was doing and watch your video hahaha.

[@evertbasson9178]

Is the 130 already sold ?

[@ricuswar]

Hell yea awesome rigs. I absolutely love the Defender, but who deep down doesn't love a Defender.The only way to know if it is worth it to sell them is to know what 4x4 you are planning to buy next. perhaps something more reliable? Hilux Perhaps? Or maybe even a Cruiser? Or a Nissan Patrol since you love those solid axles with coils all the way around?

[@HendriMouton]

Very glad I'm fortunte enough to have owned a Defender (variant) and you're spot on with the next rig having solid axles😉

[@ricuswar]

@@HendriMouton Can't wait to see it 👍👍

[@MrNineCherries]

Aw guys. My two favourite vehicles (I've got a gen3 Jimny and a defender 110). I think you'll regret selling the Jimny for a ranger, the Jimny has the smile factor, so much fun.... But what's replacing your 130? Anyway good luck from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@HendriMouton]

Thanks Tony! I'm kicking myself already, just wish we had the safe storage space and funds to keep accumilating the 4WDs that we build up. My next project was a no brainer for me, all will be releaved and explained in the next upload 😁

[@michaelsarahadventures]

Yeah I'm quite sad about the Jimny, but for what I wanted in a camping car I'm really happy with the move. The packing space and flexibility of a bakkie fits in great with our current adventures

[@trolleyjnr]

Loving the intro... great footage

[@4WheelingSA]

Cool video! Well done!

[@cobusvandermerwe9762]

My Ranger's engine just died after only 245 000Km's. Apparently because of a failed injector. It was pointed out at the service, and Ford assured me that it was only the battery. They replaced it with no difference in the smoking habits. Now they want R105 000 for a new engine. Guess it will be my last Ford in my life....

[@HendriMouton]

That's really unfortunate Cobus. Is it the 3.2 5cyl as I heard the 2.2 models are quite reliable?

[@cobusvandermerwe9762]

@@HendriMouton Nope, it was a 2016 2.2 with the "Upgrade" engine.

[@viancoetzer3647]

Die pannetjie/1400 video is hoekom ek op die channel ge subscribe het! Geniet julle nuwe projekte/voertuie

[@HendriMouton]

Thanks Vian. Jy sal van die toekomstige videos hou wat oppad is😁

[@511dydy]

Keep the jimny, over here its an investment

[@mjdynamicproperties5701]

Jimny is the best 😄👍

[@chrisbeling7350]

How much for pugly

[@HendriMouton]

Lezane said she'll swap Pugly for a Legend 50 Hilux😉

[@catchawakeup6411]

Yes, how much for Pugly?

[@DanielHeini]

Just notice selling this Defender for a Toyota is a massive downgrade for this channel. :-D

[@HendriMouton]

It was half a Toyota already 💪😁

[@glyks1550]

7:31 why did you ruined the plant dude come one respect what nature gave us

[@HendriMouton]

My bad, It was unintentional and I stopped as soon as I heard it when backing up. The 130 has quite a big blind spot with the load bin being bigger than the cabin

[@spidifilerijder]

I stopped watching after 4 minutes. The movie would be better if there was less talking and if there was undertitling....their English is for me hardly understandably. English is my third language....

[@HendriMouton]

Thanks Bob, we've got tons of footage of these vehicles already on the channel. Cheers
