Nothing wrong to report about yet, I have only covered 6000 miles.
This vehicle is so crude.
The Defender 90 may be crude, but it's simple and easy to maintain.
Given reasonable maintenance standards and attention to detail, the 90 is a good workhorse giving as good reliability and service as you'll get from any equivalent make.
Above all the 90 has got character.
More importantly it shows these "lifestyle" 4x4's what real off-road ability is all about. As they're ripping their plastic bodykits off and getting beached, the Landie will chug merrily past and off into the sunset.
The only off-roader worthy of the name.
I bought a LR Defender 90 (six seats) 15 months ago as a present for myself, and really cannot fault it. I accept that it is noisy, unrefined and thirsty on petrol. However, there is nothing better for transporting kids on camping expeditions and charging around the lanes of Exmoor. Driving through London in it is a really novel experience since other (posh) cars tend to give it a wide berth.
Great fun.
