Glad you enjoyed the sight of an RRS............... there are a lot around now, mainly TDv6's but there are quite a few 4.2 Supercharged and a few less V8 4.4's. You should take yourself along to an LR dealer and have a test in an S/C. There is one thing I can guarantee you and that is that it will not do 18? on the M62 even if you got out and pushed! Reason is they are speed limited to 140 because of their All Terrain/ Mud and Snow tyres - I think you would be surprised................ even take a run in a TDv6 and you would be even more surprised! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

I think it's safe to say that it would not have been a TDV6 you were "Driving with" at those speeds. 2.5 tonnes and 190bhp is not particularly condusive to those speeds or acceleration! Then again, it's a lot better than you'd imagine. As Tim rightly says, a S/C engine wise is a different prospect with more like 390bhp!

At least a Defender has 4 wheels and you cannot fall off it at high speed quite so easily..................... mainly because it cannot do a high speed! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
