Conclusions:
The experienced Defender Enthusiest will fully appreciate the level of finish and “sorting” that has gone into making this Defender 110 nearly perfect. While Land Rover designed these vehicles to be utility and service trucks, they were often treated like farm equipment. Every effort and dollar has been invested in this Defender to make it ride and perform like a modern day SUV.
