    The tyre drone would be horrendous.
    You'd hear it from miles away.
    Wading through the water park, now that's TopGear awesomeness.


    If you watched the full episode, did you also notice the Chatham sports cars used LR front indicators and park lights.
    They'd be the quickest LR blinkers on the planet.
    '95 Defender 130 Single Cab
    HS2.8 TGV Powered
    ------------
    98% of all Land Rovers built are still on the road.
    The other 2% made it home.

    Cost difference between Britpart and Genuine seals: £2.04. Knowing that your brakes won't fail at any moment: Priceless.

    In case you missed it, the beast runs portals on all 3 axles.

    Like it needs it with 35" stock sized tyres...

    If you want to mimic the look buy yourself a set of Tibus portal axle conversions and install the CTIS on your 110/130, looks great for a fraction of the cost.

    ...You wont have the power though

    Haha there is only a small power difference I'm guessing between the defenders 2.4L 4cyl turbo diesel and the AMGs 5.5L V8 twin turbo petrol i could be wrong hahaha

    I thought he said two had been sold, four built. How old is the episode?
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.
