Defender in The guide

[dobbo]

I've got to agree with the last entry, well worth a read

BBC - h2g2 - Land Rover Defender 110 - The Family Car (http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A1109648)

A good read

Some colourful descriptions of the Defenders F1 handling characteristics and neolithic ergonomics.

Buying a brand new Land Rover Defender now, with its undeniable family resemblance to the very first Land Rovers of more than 50 years ago, is akin to taking delivery of a brand new Lancaster bomber. This is a solid vehicle, with no frills; every nut and bolt is accessable and obvious, the trademark flip-up air vents below the windscreen still reassuringly in place, the body panel rivets on show and the sliding rear windows brilliantly practical.

Now that line is funny:D:D:D:D

I like this one:


It may be that Land Rover chose the name for this car because, frankly, you will be def by the ender your journey.
