Land Rover Defender Works V8 review - the best Defender EVER?

[@debrisbit]

"The noise!!" *proceeds to play ridiculous music to mask the actual noise from the car*

[@sebastianjenewein5599]

It still makes me cry inside when I´m remindet that they stopped making the Defender. Now Land Rover is just another soccer mom SUV brand.

[@raph_csg]

Keine Namen the 575bhp Supercharged V8 RR Sport SVR is a “soccer mom SUV”? I don’t think so buddy. Sure they make some cars that appeal to buyers doing the school run but that is what allows them to achieve the money to create monsters like the SVR and this defender. Car manufacturers cater for the mass market not the very small segment of car enthusiasts that don’t even have the money to put down a deposit.

Let’s admit it, this is probably the coolest car somebody who loves cars Can buy, at least us who loves defenders... and that Classic look of the old defender is just gorgeous that’s a face, it’s probably top 3 or 5 best looking cars ever made

The V8 defender is more like running up to the cow and taking a bite out of it

[@martinsimwaka4895]

I love the defender's boxy shape and even more fitted with v8 powerplant. It stands out different when driving it. I am planning to get one

[@dismoptism5541]

Imagine The Queen agressively overtaking you in this thing! With her outdoor head scarf and all!

[@DoubleDeckerAnton]

Let me present it next time! 😃 I love the classic look and it's great to see 'another edition' added to the 'now ceased production Defender series! 👍

when you've bought a landrover defender the ONLY REAL TOOL is YOU.

Screw electric crossovers. This is where it's at!

[@zakriyyanazir6263]

How is this guy a presenter? This vehicle is not truly respected when they got this guy to present it!!! Het Jeremy Clarkson on it!!!!!

[@holotropik]

Finally a proper and exciting 4X4. What an amazing rig!

Absolutely he is copying Jeremy Clarkson. Those are all Jeremy Clarkson lines. Chrochendo..... he would say symphony. this idiot is the Carlos Mencia of presenters.

I could only manage 1 minute of this guy.

Saya rasa penyampai klip video ni ok aje...infomatif dan menarik...cheers from kuala lumpur😎

[@BrownAbrahamic112]

This is the defender we needed, not the new discovery 4 in disguise with a range rover chassis. Just needed to improve the sound insulation and the integrity of the bodywork and many other bits to make it safer and refined. Like the Gwagen.

[@steveh5005]

Awesome machine even though limited run. Drove a original civilian LR V8 110 In Early 1980S. British Army had it on trail at Hereford, but the regiment preferred the Gucci Range Rovers. So we had it for a couple of weeks, a battleship grey V8 with black vinyl seats.. It was really unstable and a beast! No idea what happened to it. But could be hidden in some storage depot somewhere, rusting away.

[@RobustArid379]

the old defender looks more classy than the 2023

[@daveg5574]

It might be noisy but the engine sound so nice...well 4 me that is

[@prajutdallakoti8720]

A review without interior? Incomplete!!

[@TheMaktub1]

I can’t with this guy

[@bambychoi9366]

André Montes Don’t watch it then. He’s just reviewing cars for people.

[@Filippouy]

André Montes you can’t what?

[@seymorebutts2478]

“Tap to mute” YES

[@richiedudding7671]

Forget the jibes at the presenter, it's that NA V8 which I have in my Dicovery 4 before they chucked in that V6 supercharged. Naturally aspirated V8 in a Landrover was the best decision.

[@Brascofarian]

Was looking forward to watching, then realised Lord Snooty was narrating and lost interest. Aunt Lavinia’s Croquet hoops look awfully pretty tho.

[@JoseGarcia-qb1qu]

Not the best Defender ever but the best offroad too. Even it's style inspired the Mercedes, Tata & Iveco ,all of them copied & learnt with the Defender

[@bendanahar3750]

I think someone with more appreciation for Land Rovers ideas with this one would have made more sense.

[@ArtemisiaAbsinthium]

Please remove Smigol from the videos.....

[@MaccaMan08]

Listening to him talk really makes me want a cup of spiffing tea

[@mohamedmortada3555]

More beautiful than 2020 one

[@Matthew-ui4kj]

I was watching this while im holding a *LAND ROVER TOY* :D

[@BiglumpADV]

70 year old design? Honestly what a pile of crap... You're referring to the series 1 which couldn't be more different. That's like comparing a smart car to an F40. If you're going to make statements in videos at least keep them factual..

[@dcanmore]

yup, the Defender was introduced in 1983. It wasn't a new design though, rather a much improved version of the Series III from 1971.

[@mikemike690]

dcanmore the 110 was introduced in ‘83. The Defender name wasn’t used until 1990

[@dcanmore]

yes, correct, the name change was brought in to distinguish it from the new Discovery.

[@joshquiroz]

I can’t do it. That voice. I just can’t...

[@surge_miller4203]

A classical gem. I don't know what that means. I'd love to own one.

Old Defender was marvel

[@imaddmann]

Does anyone else think this guy should stop reviewing cars?

[@ralphv924]

🤣🤣

[@walterowiti6785]

Sorry, that's your opinion.

[@KA-zr5vv]

Absolutely! His voice 🤮 I'm going to hate the car because of him. V8 doesn't go well with woke movement. Let him present electric cars or something that runs on vegetable oil.

[@astonmcleod5344]

land rover made a huge mistake when they stopped production of the defender. jeep still make the wrangler, Mercedes the G wagon, and they sell.

[@jawdatfares2831]

The best,,4x4 ever made, just it just for man we love it

[@shanjanusman9974]

They should bring it back as a hybrid. There are people who would love to have this sort of vehicle again as it's a halfway house between an estate family car and a van for work like landscape gardening.

[@DavidSorensenRealLife]

I had hoped to get some quality review of this amazing 4WD. All he talks about is the noise... and the style. Not one word about what this car is designed for: adventure and off roading. I can't imagine a worse review. Clearly this man has zero knowledge about this car.

[@bonfacefundafunda5841]

You either love this land rover, or you love other vehicles. Simple as that! Comparing this iconic land rover to the new Defender is like..I don't know, comparing something to something else just because they carry the same name..

Cheers mate! Well done James!

[@deltawisky94]

Do they still build 6x6 8v utility once.

[@MaXwellFalstein]

All of the braking and suspension upgrades and they stick off road tyres. I wish they had stuck Tokyo S/T tyres on 18-inch rims with a return to centre steering damper if it is not included. I do not have the V8 but that is what my fast-road D90 has underneath.

[@zackirstein9233]

It should be £70 grand max not £160,000 that's insane!

[@trialsted]

I bet they sell them though. Lots of idiots about who want something 'exclusive' - that you could actually do in your garage at home.
