well well well, I've now owned my defender for exactly a year now!
a bit of a rollercoaster to be honest,plenty of problems, wallets a fair bit lighter but to be honest I still love it and it wont be leavin me family for fookin donkeys.
the list of problems so far,
Oct 07- UJ's go BANG!
February- Clutch fork breaks, new clutch, clutch fork, slave cylinder
April - backlash issues, new bushes all round on literally EVERYTHING!
July - Clutch Master cylinder is in need of repair
so i guess yeah I've had a year of problems and some a wee bit expensive at that
Everyone comments on why i own th bloody thing, 'get a vectra for arf th money!' they yell
'owever there aint nowt more satisfyin than bein able to go places no one else can, th (usually) friendly waves between defender owners, ya dont get that between saxo drivers or th like do ya!prob more likely to start a fookin fight between themselves!
So if in doubt about if landy ownership is for you.
GO FOR IT!your never look back, I dont regret it one lil bit!
