    Interesting theory!

    And no one's even mentioned the factory D4 ediff option which would be within the OP's rules...
    Now 2016 D4 HSE 'Leo' and Steve the Triumph Speed Twin
    Then 2010 D4 3.0 HSE 'James'
    Then 2010 RRS TDV8 'Roger' w traxide DBS, UHF, Cooper Zeons, Superchips remap
    Then 2010 D4 TDV6 'Jumbo' w traxide DBS
    First love 2002 D2 TD5 'Disco Stu'

    Which is better Off Road a D3/4 or a late model Defender? ... Puma 110

    Well not really i would have thought because its an option, an option that you have to pay for so i cant imagine that can be classed as standard.
    I think it would be different if they had a specific model of D4 that had the ediff fitted as standard.
    Our Land Rover does not leak oil! it just marks its territory.......

    They don't get DVT because the shake and the vibration keeps muscles active. Beside the left leg gets a work out. Another plus, i dont think there would be a single women out there that wasnt attracted to a defender drivers toned left leg and handsomely tanned right arm

    Its my understand the deafness is from the wife not the car.

    Annnnd just where does this leave the women drivers of Defenders

    Yeah, MsLandy can't decide which is my best side! Toned left leg or tanned right arm! "Best of both worlds" she says "...but above all its the troglodyte all over hairyness of all limbs and the facial dust filter she loves the most"! She also says that "the all over scrawny legged-pasty-skinned baldness and lacto intolerance of hermetically sealed Disco drivers just wouldn't do it for her!" Obviously Defenders are the best!

    Yes sorry about that.


    Don't know what is going on. I've been having serious issues with AULRO the last few days .... dis-associated posts and constant freezing when trying to type.


    Anybody else been having issues?

    From what I've read, the ediff is almost redundant in the newer D4s.

    Or potential silicosis from all the dust ingested.

    Or the industrial deafness....
    Strangely, my Defender is much better sealed than I expected. The exception was the gap in the rubber seal under the front passenger's door at the front, which let daylight in, but I fixed that by gluing a rubber block in the gap.

    I have/had both ;-) also quite a few of my Trips have been with Mark and his little modified D4 I have quite a few videos where you can compare both
