Thread: New Defender reliability??.

Me very happy 51,000km's and still going strong No major's at all in fact it has never ceased to travel forward except for that one time when I REALLY pushed the limit of the reserve fuel tank

As for dealers. I can only talk of mine and there tops Southside LR have always looked after my car brilliantly

As for the Toyo thing I am not going to enter into that debate except to say, my car looks better



Cheers,

No dramas with mine either, and mine is an '07 model too. Ever since the water/dirt in the fuel issues were reported I have run with an "extender" on the fuel breather so (who knows) this may have helped.

It's had a new sump under warranty (design issue needed to be sorted) but it has been pretty much rock solid. Only had farm and sand use though. No rock-climbing.

My work hilux had more problems in the 12 months I had it than my defender has had in 11 years and 400,000k's. Pat

All those years coming undone with the L322

I've got the first Puma released in Qld, and possibly Australia (October 22 2007) - I have had no issues that have required urgent care other than brake vac pump, which was/is a common problem.

I love it - it's going like a German band.

Supply and demand - rules of economics

If there was a demand there would be more suppliers. If LR had good reputation then more would buy and there would be more suppliers/dealer and more competition etc

Since they don't, there and not to many dealers ( and declining ).
