Land Rover Defender Works V8 - review: aex.ae/2IufOGL
The Land Rover Defender is back. But before you get excited and start waving your Union flag with patriotic fervour, it isn’t as simple as that. To celebrate the firm’s 70th birthday, Land Rover has launched a run of limited edition Defender models. However, unlike a Jaguar D-Type or E-Type Lightweight, the 2018 Works V8 70th Edition isn’t a brand-new continuation model, instead it’s a heavily re-engineered ‘old’ Defender…

"The noise!!" *proceeds to play ridiculous music to mask the actual noise from the car*

@sebastianjenewein5599 6 лет назад

It still makes me cry inside when I´m remindet that they stopped making the Defender. Now Land Rover is just another soccer mom SUV brand.

@raph_csg 6 лет назад

Keine Namen the 575bhp Supercharged V8 RR Sport SVR is a “soccer mom SUV”? I don’t think so buddy. Sure they make some cars that appeal to buyers doing the school run but that is what allows them to achieve the money to create monsters like the SVR and this defender. Car manufacturers cater for the mass market not the very small segment of car enthusiasts that don’t even have the money to put down a deposit.

@steveh5005 6 лет назад

Awesome machine even though limited run. Drove a original civilian LR V8 110 In Early 1980S. British Army had it on trail at Hereford, but the regiment preferred the Gucci Range Rovers. So we had it for a couple of weeks, a battleship grey V8 with black vinyl seats.. It was really unstable and a beast! No idea what happened to it. But could be hidden in some storage depot somewhere, rusting away.

@holotropik 6 лет назад

Finally a proper and exciting 4X4. What an amazing rig!

@BiglumpADV 6 лет назад

70 year old design? Honestly what a pile of crap... You're referring to the series 1 which couldn't be more different. That's like comparing a smart car to an F40. If you're going to make statements in videos at least keep them factual..

@dcanmore 6 лет назад

yup, the Defender was introduced in 1983. It wasn't a new design though, rather a much improved version of the Series III from 1971.

@mikemike690 6 лет назад

dcanmore the 110 was introduced in ‘83. The Defender name wasn’t used until 1990

@dcanmore 6 лет назад

yes, correct, the name change was brought in to distinguish it from the new Discovery.

@richiedudding7671 5 лет назад

Forget the jibes at the presenter, it's that NA V8 which I have in my Dicovery 4 before they chucked in that V6 supercharged. Naturally aspirated V8 in a Landrover was the best decision.

@Countrysideboy247 Год назад

This is the defender we needed, not the new discovery 4 in disguise with a range rover chassis. Just needed to improve the sound insulation and the integrity of the bodywork and many other bits to make it safer and refined. Like the Gwagen.

All of the braking and suspension upgrades and they stick off road tyres. I wish they had stuck Tokyo S/T tyres on 18-inch rims with a return to centre steering damper if it is not included. I do not have the V8 but that is what my fast-road D90 has underneath.

They should bring it back as a hybrid. There are people who would love to have this sort of vehicle again as it's a halfway house between an estate family car and a van for work like landscape gardening.
