Beloved Defender but Big Problems

It looks amazing and smooths out bumps in the road like the luxury vehicle it is. The problem is that mine is 6 months old and is in the shop for the 3rd time to fix a steering issue. It's day 11 and they tell me it will be 2-3 weeks more. The whole steering rack is getting replaced and the left strut. Really? I like so much about this vehicle but this seems unreasonable. Regretting my choice 6 months ago.

Fun to drive!

My Defender is very fun to drive. The interior is spacious, comfortable and very quiet. The exterior styling gets lots of attention and I am constantly getting guys coming over and asking to take a look. I have the P400 engine and it has lots of power and I love the growl it makes when I step into the gas. If your looking for a vehicle that feels like a luxury car on the inside but can still go off roading with ease this is the one.

Worth the wait and the best in the LR line up

Waited 13 months for my X. She is stunning. Drives like a dream. Technology is amazing, seats are super comfortable. Like a Range Rover Sport on Steroids. Lots of power, great turning radius, lots of head room and can tow! The best truck I have ever owned and I have an original 1994 in my garage as well.

The new and sleek Defender is awesome!

This car is a new take on the Defender! I’ve been waiting on an alternative to the Discovery and I am so please with this vehicle! It ride super smooth and the technology is tops but still easy to use.
