Automotive - Thank you for your kind replies. I had a test drive yesterday. It was like driving a unwieldy truck.

Which is something I need to get used to. Turning radius is big and clutch is heavy. Vehicle has some issues but mainly intact and original.

I will update when the owner decides on a price.

Cheers and have a great day!

Land Rover Defender 110 year 2012

Hi guys, Anyone with experience owning a no longer manufactured Defender series 110 with the Puma engine or similar ones? Is this worth a punt? I am keen on getting an icon just for fun, I don't mind making it a project car. Yes I know it's unreliable and...

Since my childhood, this is a vehicle which makes me dream. What a character! After, I don't know much about reliability issues. I read here and there that there are some, but I think it is worth it!

I love it and would love to own one. Its a drivers car. It makes you enjoy life as it forces you to drive slow!

I would definitelly go for it. I never owned one, reason being is that i like the land cruieser "bush taxi" even more 😋

And the comfort is relative, too. But damn, it is so good to be Daktari! :)
