    430-horsepower Defender

    A 430-horsepower and a six-speed automatic transmission in a Defender !!!!!
    And away goes the relaxed driving.



    The Land Rover Defender is better with a Chevy smallblock - Road & Track

    Why?

    Sounds like an expensive and dumb way to die.

    I totally agree with you AnD3rew. An even more powerful insane 520hp defender has also been built.

    Yep I would rather put a 3litre diesel in a Defender.

    If I want a sports car I want it to look like a sports car.

    That would be an awesome vehicle. Plenty of power & torque, for any situation. I'd love it. Awesome for cruising in the big Aussie open spaces.
    Like any vehicle with a bit of grunt, Ya've just gotta respect it.
    I'd love it, Pickles.

    Another Defender who will end up in a derelict state in 10years somewhere in a industrial parking.
    It makes sense for comps but for everyday road a good Rover v8 will give you the same buzz. m
