Since my first Range Rover, a 1991, then our 1993, followed by our long wheelbase 1995 Range Rover, this 2023 Land Rover Defender 130 First Edition is supremely more luxurious, more capable on road and off road. The three rows of supple Windsor Vintage Tan Leather provides such a versatile SUV! All rows have heated seats and cup holders and two beautiful sunroofs, one larger front and a separate rear sunroof! The amazing, but ease of use technology, provides such a wide variety of off-road driving such as; a snow, sand, rock climbing and more mode, or just put it on auto and it’ll select for you the best setting. Older defenders were great but watch do YouTube on hill climbing mud water rock climbing this new Land Rover defender out does them all! It has such an effortless fast smooth powertrain that it will absolutely amaze you it’s an SUV! Four months and over 4,000 miles with two interstate trips proved it a worthy and wonderful SUV. Bumper to Bumper 4 year, 50,000 mile warranty provides peace of mind. My family has found this to be a uniquely, enjoyable SUV to own, drive and appreciate all it has to offer. UPDATE: 2 years, 4 months 23,900 miles this defender 1/31 edition is so fabulous so wonderful to drive on road off road and comfortable. I can’t imagine any other SUV having features that even meet this vehicles! What an absolute pleasure it is for both my wife and I, we truly like it. It’s reliable, we’ve had no problems, and look to continue a long time ownership with it! August 2025 UPDATE We now have almost 30,000 miles on our Defender 130 and it is still so amazing! Drives well on road or off road and effortlessly! Solid, reliable and absolutely fast and luxurious. We are so very happy we own it and encourage others to consider this as their own special SUV!!!

I have had my defender 90 v8 for about a year. An oxygen sensor failed and was replaced (warranty). Overall, the car performs well - nice handling for its weight. The car also feels more fun than other SUVs in my opinion . I can genuinely see how nice it is when I ride in other cars and compare back to my car . It has a quiet ride, but you can also hear the engine . It does have a lot of body lean if you compare it with a performance SUV like a x5 M , so I don’t really push it . I highly recommend a well spec’d defender over a typical luxury SUV.

I’ve driven every mid-size luxury SUV out there and the Defender hands down is the best- rugged on the outside, refined on the inside with a great driving experience we needed more room beyond our BMWX3 and the back has more room than a BMWX5. The Pirelli tires and a four-cylinder engine and the air suspension combine for a very refined yet stable ride.

2023 110 X Dynamic 6 cl picked up September 2022. Rides better than I expected. Very good power. Looks great, very good interior. Taken multiple long trips and very happy. Did have to take it in for a software update but unfortunately that is very common in all brands today due to the chip issues over the past 3 years.

Picked up the Defender a couple of weeks ago and love it. Whereas every SUV on the road looks similar, the Defender really stands out. Mine has the 6 cylinder motor which is quiet, smooth and has plenty of get up and go. The air suspension makes the ride luxurious and smooth, belying its tough exterior looks. As far as reliability, I won’t know for a while but other Defender owners I have spoken to have been quite positive. I am hopeful for similar experience.

If it was a bit taller and a bit wider, it would have been sooo perfect! A little faster as well, and thats why I'm planning to exchanging it to the new 2025 Octa! Back to my current 2023 8 Cyl and previous 2022 6cyl. So my first was the 6 Cyl, liked it, but it def needed more power for sure, esp if you are a car enthusiast! Got the 8 Cyl and it is a def improvement! My wife has the 2024 Range Rover, and she loves it, but when she had to drive my car few days, she felt that defender (8 cyl) is a lot more fun to drive then hers! The kids enjoyed it a lot more as well! It is fun yet feels very safe, strong like a tank feeling ! Super comfortable for a Jeepy kind of SUV! The comfort in my opinion is way better than the Mercedes G Wagon, it even drives better! I’m sure it’s not as fast as the Mercedes, so here comes the Defender Octa! Hopefully I’ll see you all next year with that review! Cheers!

There is so much to like about this vehicle that it seems somewhat unfair that a single, seeming small, feature can have such a profound impact on the utility of the vehicle. The back seats do not lay down flat. This makes the cargo space odd sized and smaller that it appears, but far more importantly, everything placed in this sloping space slides back to the cargo door such that when the door is opened it falls out. It is absolutely irksome and lowers my rating by more than a single star and makes it unlikely I would ever again buy this vehicle that I otherwise love.
