My 2022 D-90 is an absolute beast. I’ve had it for 2+ years with no issues at all. Have a dual battery with onboard 800watt charging (charges from alternator), Onboard Dual ARB compressor with Tank plumbed into the air system in case there is a factory compressor failure, 1.5” lift and 34.2” tires. It’s been rock solid for me, no issues or lights at all.

Very nice! I just got a Defender 90 V8 a few weeks ago.
Sold my 2 door Bronco Badlands. I am really a v8 guy, and since discovering the existence of a v8 2 door SUV thought I would have to give one of these a try.
It’s my first time owning a British car. Really looking forward to your Defender 90 content.
There is some video shorts on my channels if you want to see it.

Also - with a $600 GAP IID tool you can enable Adaptive Cruise Control and a whole slew of other options like automatic terrain response.

Going through the carfax’s of the ones currently for sale. It’s crazy how many of them have 2-3 previous owners before 20k miles. Probably a combination of people realizing 2 doors aren’t for them, the payment isn’t for them, and the trips to the dealer for repairs isn’t for them. Looking at the reports, they seem to be chasing gremlins with most of them.

Gives me original 2 door rav 4 vibes. Obviously much fancier etc but those old rav’s are classic.

Land Rover owners are some of the strangest vehicle fans I've ever known. Last guy I knew who had one spent no less than $5k in repairs every year he owned it, but whenever he was asked how he liked it he'd tell everyone what a great and reliable vehicle it was. It was like Stockholm Syndrome in an automotive way. I'm a Jeep guy and it was absurd even to me! lol

Just bought a Defender 110. It’s fantastic, same color combo! 5 year 48, 000 mile warranty, I’m going to drive it and enjoy it. Just did a quick 1, 000 mile road trip and it is flawless on the highway. I’ve owned over 60 cars, very few had character. This one has it!

Unlike many modern Land Rovers, the older ones are almost bulletproof, very capable off-road, and reliable. Would love to loan it to you for a direct comparison video!

Something I find interesting, that has briefly been covered here, is the sad story of GM... They had a product for the sudo luxury/ off road market in Hummer, and they were about 10 years too early to the market. I would almost guarantee if they brought back the H2 (on the revised Tahoe platform) and the H3 (on the revised Colorado platform), they wouldn't be able to keep them on dealer lots. The H-ev is a flop because electric cars (as a whole) are a flop, not because the brand is entirely unloved.

I work in sales at Land Rover North Austin. Handover pack is a little box with two Land Rover keychains one blue leather and one metal one.

[christopherskodi]

Owner of a 150k, fully loaded, final production yr LR3 but in the market for a 'new' D90 as a replacement. Looking forward to your answer Tommy

[SkywhiteChannel]

Always love Land Rover content on the channel.

I just picked up a 2022 L663 that still had 2 years left on the warranty for less than half of what they want a new bronco sasquatch for. So far we had to replace the windshield due to a leak under warranty - but other than that its been flawless.

[shaunward]

Actually hadn't Alex just bought a new base wrangler for almost the same amount? In that case I would most definitely take the defender.

[stevemartegani]

Can you stand in the back seat with the sunroof open? I tried that with the cloth top and there is plenty of room for doing that, but the cloth top was discontinued :(

Over the years, videos from this channel occasionally get recommended. It is cute to see how the son starts looking more and more like the father. Just the youthful voice hasn't changed.

[sambaise]

Why did it have to be bougie, EVERYONE DOESN'T WANT TO GO OFF-ROAD!!!

[roguedogx]

27:55 no, but i have thought they would make a have decent kit car candidate.

[EM..]

This is what I really wanted for the longest time. I wasn't crazy about the new Bronco interior materials.

[abregoja]

good for you man, I don't even have a car haha :/ and I've been working so hard to buy a car, but this overpricing from companies and dealerships are nuts. Enjoy the ride! pretty nice ones!
So that old defender is a diesel one? how do you deal with that in US?
