Bloody hell. Today at work one of our security guys tells me how much he admires my Defender and asks me about it as he would quite like to order one before they finally finish. His mate (who has a cruiser with all the fruit) asks "can you get up to 100ks these days".

My revenge was revealing what I paid and irrespective of that the Defender still looks better (to the guys discussing the topic) and even he conceded that stock standard it whipped the pants off a cruiser.

And that was before I told him I could get to 140 before the limiter kicked in. I did concede it was a slightly terrifying experience and not a speed I would regularly repeat!

I got to 150 a couple of weeks ago ( BAS remap no limiter) on a not to perfect road, whilst passing a cruiser towing a trailer. I wasn't scared at all until I looked at the speedo.

I find my L76? Troopie much scarier than the Defender at speed, but then they do fit muddies to them here :(
