Prospective Defender buyer - Wisdom Required

every landrover will do that to a degree!

its whether it will tackle an obsitcal in the middle which causes it to need that little bit extra opmh to get over without throttle.

But don't be fooled people you can stall the defender also! in low 1st.....but it takes a very steep incline to do so

Now I thought the Td5 didn't have anti-stall but someone on here corrected me that it in fact does (albeit different to the Puma). You are right though, it is very weak compared to the Puma. There have been a lot of threads here and overseas where it is mentioned, for example here and here.

And that has really answered the original post - you've nailed it in one Solmanic!

I watched those video's and you know what my mate did exactly what that td5 did in a 300tdi except he was going up a very muddy hill he was determined to climb it on tick over it took him over 30mins (only a short hill) but he did it... now I know 300tdi's don't have anti stall;).

I'm sorry i'm not convinced if TD5's have anti stall how come I have witnessed them stalling A LOT.
