I'd say it depends what you'd use it for |

My moto is no regrets....Oh what I would do for a new D90.....They have not been here in the US for 12 years. I sold my '97 White Stationwagon a while ago and it is the only car that I have truly missed.

Tony - the real joy in a Defender is buying a good used one (a Tdi or a TD5). If you choose well you can have years of great fun - on road and off - whilst keeping your Sport for best. And the Defender depreciates really slowley and you can have great fun buying new bits to bolt on. Its not nearly so much fun living with a Defender every day of the week though (safety, security, comfort and mpg aren't great) - but when the mood takes you - driving the Defender is a joy - and you also really appreciate the Sport when you jump back in her.

I'd got for it. But only if you can afford it as a second car, you would miss the luxury of the RRS. |

Still has the added character from a hefty bash (sorry added character) in the rear nearside corner from the laning evening in Weardale 2 years ago S! Local guys tried to push out the crumpling but it was in a very difficult location to hammer back out. Must have another of those weekends sometime.

I only have to confirm what the others have said - GET IT as a second car but keep the RRS for daily driving.

If you want one for everyday then you have to go and see a certain company down near Coventry who will make you anything you like out of a Defender (or any other Land Rover for that matter) You want a tarmac ripping supercharged 90 they will do you one, as will several over companies, but they don't come cheap. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
