As different as chalk and cheese :D I get to drive both as there is a D2 in the family.

You would be swapping from an ACE equipped climate-controlled limo to a motor car you have to physically drive, complete with noise and with minimal, if any, aircon.

On the other hand in a 110 you will experience enjoyment, prestige and enough space for all your stuff........and a fully functional smile factor.

How about getting a Perentie and keeping your D2 for when you need something civilised ? :D

I hope other sensible comments follow regarding your other questions.

I drive both have the D2 as play car and Defender as tourer. Love them both. I'm tall and Defender seating position (with recaro) is far more comfortable then D2

Family has a new pajero. So limo is taken care of
Im 6.4 so driving position is of man concern.
Got a base td5 so no ACE..
Got a d1 so understand how good the landrover brand is off road.
Got a mate in town who drives his d3 like a series. . God bless him.
Just really want to have a defender I think...
So then I can get a hse range lol.
