Oh yeah, if your Deefer has traction control, I would agree, a stock RR will not leave a stock Deefer behind off road. However, I feel totally refreshed after a 10hr day in the Rangie, I can't say the same for a Deefer.


Yeah I have an 08 SVX so it's a well sorted truck with all the fruit , not to mention all the mods I have thrown at it , It's almost un stoppable .I'm sure the L322 with a set of MTZ will also be a formidable 4x4 , but who wants to trash such a pretty truck .

I couldn't agree more re the 10hr days, though even with the Recaro seats and soft suspension which are quite acceptable , I'm still knackered after a long drive in the Defender . All I can put it down to is road and wind noise fatigue .
