If your Landy was nicked, would you buy another the same?

This thought troubles me. My defender is the first car I have ever owned that is potentially worth more than I paid for it.

There are lots being stolen at the minute, and I suspect the the insurance payout would not fund another one.

So, would you buy another in this case? If not, what would you get? I think I would buy one of these - its the same shape as a defender at least!

Another Defender for me. All of the other LR badged vehicles are out of the question

A Porsche Cayman 3.4s I wanted one before I brought the rrs but Dorris says it not practical not eco no where for kids as only two seats bla bla bla

Would certainly buy another Defender, nothing else compares!

I have a 90 but if it was nicked I would get a 110 to replace it as the 90 is useless for load space.
If a 110 / defender was out of the question, I could be tempted by a landcruiser or a Jeep Wrangler.

You'd seriously compare a jeep commander to a defender

I have to say apart from stuffing crap in the back I don't miss my old defender, looking forward to having my 2a on the road though

and higher road tax £535

- that said, the amount I spend on my defender would pay for that....

Definitely a Defender.

As I rapidly approach retirement, it would be harder to justify having a second vehicle.
I would still need a tow vehicle, at moment I'd still get another defender, but as the great reduction in income nears it becomes less likely.

If your Landy was nicked, would you buy another the same?
