I’ve owned land rovers for a long time now I picked this truck up last week. I ordered it back in November and it just came in last week and what a great ride it is I can’t wait to go off-road

It is definitely different from other manufacturers. Still getting used to the high technology. Worked out the software updates issues and low battery messages. Otherwise, very pleased.

The Most Well-Rounded Vehicle

The Land Rover Defender possesses a wonderful blend between capability, luxury, performance, and practicality. It rides quite smooth for what it is, although not as smooth as our Range Rover does. The technology even 3 years later is impressive and Land Rover continues to update the software to keep it in line with the latest models. The safety technology is very impressive. Our model has all of the options in terms of safety, but the newest Land Rover products have all of the safety technology as standard equipment. The car itself is extremely safe and I feel very confident driving it. Some people say that the Land Rover Defender is extremely unreliable. However, we have had very few issues with our model, and none of them were major, even after 40,000 miles. We plan to keep our Defender for at least another 2 years and are so happy with this vehicle.
