So what are you buying?
I admire your concept of the comparison table but unfortunately you have missed nearly all the figures in which the LR110 is class leading - and why most of us buy them (even if some don't realise). It isn't for the number of doors, the fuel tank size and all the things you listed it is for things such as:
- gear ratios
- approach/departure/ramp over angles
- traverse and climb limits
- articulation
- ground clearance
I guess you need to compare the facts and figure that matter to you - good luck.
Thanks for that Bill :BigThumb:Quote:

I know this has been mentioned by many on here before but stop and think of what this actually means given the (law in some states (qld)pending in some and comming to all - eventually) legislation on modifying off road vehicles. When all the others Toyota's, Nissans, and Great Walls are limited to a 3" lift or whatever it is in your state, what then will come close to a standard height defender with standard diameter tyres off road?
Some years down the track if you ever want to sell the Defender- what is that capability going to be worth to an off road enthusiast?
I am glad I have my puma - lover her to death and other than a few mods (lockers / snorkel / winch etc) she is legal on any road in the country and will always remain so as I don’t need jack her up or put scary tyres on her to get her to do what she was designed to do - get me A to B anywhere.
Just my thoughts - :)
