    Unimogs v Defender

    For all of you who are wondering how big a Unimog is - I had a visitor yesterday whist working on my Unimog .

    Tony brought his U1250 DOKA around. This should give everyone a sense of scale of one next to my Defender 110. On my U1250, the inside track ( space between the inside of the tyres) is only 50mm wider than my Defender, and outside is 200mm wider - 365/80 R20 will do that. Tony's has the optional wide offset wheel, 90mm offset each so has a wider track but he is thinking of fitting the standard wheels and guards to bring it back in a bit.

    A U1250 is one of the smaller of the modern Unimogs - DOKAs are very rare over here. Tony certainly has a unique vehicle.

    Nice!
    I'd like to see a Mog 411 next to a Defender. I reckon the LR would tower over it.

    Ok, the 411 I know is smaller. Maybe there are different models.

    All I can base it on was mine and yes you are right the 411 is a hell of a lot smaller than the modern ones but still a hell of a lot larger than any landy.

    Not trying to refute your real world experience but the specs suggest they are smaller in every way to a SWB series landy except they are slightly taller.

    i gather this is the vehicle i saw around the brisbane bayside area the other day (twice), i was driving a dark blue disco with a crappy painted black roof that needs a repaint
