    Might have driven one or two...

    Too much to say about it generally but it does drive very well and the new seats are comfortable.

    In regard to the 2.4 ford motor, have been talking to a diesel pump specialist, the very best in NSW, and his opinion is the pumps are in the same catogery as the zd30 3.0L nissan motor, in other words Rat Chit

    Not being cocky, but there is some true horror stories out there, in regard to the latest pumps, on some of these common rail engines.

    Cheers.

    The only ones I have heard have been related to contaminated fuel. Mind you, I don't hang out with any specialised diesel mechanics...

    Ho Har - you spend to much time texting! That sentence is well abbreviated.

    Anyway, take a look at this thread from a UK forum, about half way down the page (post number 12 I think):

    Actually, that last link I sent wasn't really helpful. That was just the first topic that mentioned the new defender and the word Transit.

    This one might be better:
    http://www.landrovernet.com/forum/sh...hlight=transit

    Just try a google search for 2007 Defender Transit and I'm sure you'll get something relevant.
    Cheers
