I have been pleasantly surprised by the performance. To quote Homestar (who drove it) “Geez it goes like a cut cat”

I have only done 12,000km in it - a mix of city/country driving. I am getting between 10.5/11.5 L/100.

I have found the ride smooth on dirt roads and corrugated roads. I haven’t had any issue with “pitching” because of the short wheelbase. Afterall - the wheelbase on my 90 is LONGER that the wheelbase of my 101…. I think that it’s a mental perception - it’s “small” wheelbase..

For me the 90 looks much better in the flesh - people at work (non LR owners) frequently comment on the car.

I spend 90% of my time driving on my own and it’s perfect for me. The boot is small but I rarely have stuff with me. I never have passengers. I might have gone with a HT - I am not sure.

I find the ride very compliant - I don’t mind the coils at all. I too only drove a 110 (on air) and found it too big for my needs.

The front doors on a 90 feel massive - they are 20cm longer than a 110 (to allow easier access to the rear seats)

I simply love this vehicle - it does everything that I want from it.

I will be keen to hear your thoughts.

There are multiple FB groups - including a 90 only group.

There are multiple companies bringing out accessories (including one that replaces the plastic chequer plate on the bonnet with aluminium ones)

I haven’t investigated it further but there are a few overseas companies out there that unlock software features (terrain response 2, adaptive cruise control, etc). It’s my understanding that all of these are just configurable options ticked at the factory (which makes perfect sense).

Somebody even worked out how to enable the “007” welcome screen. Lol (not really my thing)

Good luck! Keep me updated.

Cheers,

Thanks mate , thats great info, I was surprised at how big they were when I saw one after ordering.. I've got the 130 tray top and a 2017 Rangie V8 diesel, so I don't need to replace these vehicles..but Im hoping the 90 will fill the void of a work /camping vehicle.. I do serious 4wding everyday in the 130 for work and the last thing I want to do on the weekend is go rock crawling in it..hoping the 90 will fit in the stable.
