Join me as we spend a week living with the Land Rover Defender 110 V8! Does a Supercharged V8 make the Defender better? Maybe, but it certainly makes it more fun and quite a bit louder!

This 5.0 liter engine is absolutely terrific. Truly a magnificent engine

The cold start by itself would sould this car for me lol

As an owner of a Jaguar F-Pace SVR, that balance checks the block for me brother...

While in dynamic mode knock the shifter left into sport combination of sport dynamic takes it to another level....a real beast.

Also when in dynamic mode your active exhaust will open the valves for a louder exhaust

[chrisfarrell]

Try the Urban Defender with the Miltek exhaust!!

I rented this in Iceland, was not a huge fan, just felt clunky, and I WANTED to love it. Wish they would of went old school defender more boxy like the Ineos. Great review though!

Great video love it. Couple questions after your experience. 1. You think this is big enough with 2 kids? 2. Would you go with this one or the X dynamic with the 22’s and heads up display? Thanks!!

In case anyone is wondering: The BMW 4.4L twin turbo is absolutely NOT as reliable as Land Rover’s 5.0L supercharged power plant. It’s not even close. Would not own an M5/X5M or any lesser variant with the same motor outside of a warranty, and even then you’re spending 2 months a year in dog turd X1 courtesy cars.

2024 My Lottery Win SUV. I Can Dream, Can't I? (smile)

I wonder if the steering wheel with that material will look good in 30, 000 miles.

[freecitizen]

And yet, the Honda Pilot Trail sport is far superior in every way, especially in price and reliability.

[paulm]

I still think you need a Tahoe High Country.

[ckaparos]

I have a miltek exhuast on my defender 110 V8 and it ads to the drama of an already brilliant sounding V8

[paulm]

Way too expensive. If you like a vehicle like this, then get an X5 with its six cylinder. Plenty fast and great engine.

[paulm]

Bronco does steer well, not so the Wrangler.

Try a year buddy. 1 week is nothing. Title is misleading

[zarbon]

$116K worth of high unreliablity and depreciation.
