Retroanaconda Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 I priced one up, but the base spec 110 is Ā£45k andĀ if financedĀ I object in principle to paying more than Ā£51kĀ (with interest) for a Ā£45k car that will probably only be worth Ā£30k once paid for.Ā 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverik Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 Not got one no.... but I'm booked to go for a play in oneĀ once things start up again, my uncle's got a free shot in it, due to his other purchase (Velar)Ā Ā but this is the uncle that submerged his red Evoque on a pay and play site a few years ago... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neil110 Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 apart from a parked 90, which looked like a Kia soul from a distance, I have yet to see one in the tin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snagger Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Iāve seen a few doing what appeared to be test drives, but the local dealers only permit tests on the back streets near the dealerships, not the main highways or any non-tarmac surface, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 The 2020 Defender hasn't yet been officially released or made available to the motoring press in UK, due to covid restrictions. haven't seen any tv adverts for it either.

geoffbeaumont Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 I've seen at least three 110s now, no 90s. Looks quite good - as others have said, it doesn't look as big in the flesh as it does in some photos. Still not keen on the back. The side warts are less offensive in some colours than others. Without it the 110 would have a huge featureless dark band - I reckon they looked at the design, decided it didn't work and instead of fixing the basics stuck the wart on the side to break it up. Doesn't really stand out though - in the flesh it's even more "just another generic SUV/crossover". If I was in the market for a Discovery type car I'd take a look - but it's not a replacement for the old Defender and it isn't going to attract that market.

Anderzander Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 The 90 isnāt out at all yet is it?Ā Ā I saw my first 110 yesterday - a fleeting glimpse, but it looked huge ! Not sure how much of that is the large sides of the design and howĀ much is the actual size of it.Ā Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missingsid Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 I parked the test 110 behind my D3 after returning, it is the same width and looks to be the same length? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The top half of them is narrower for sure, probably makes them look smaller overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JeremySteel Posted December 11, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 11, 2020 (edited) I've had an SE model for about a month now but haven't had a chance to give it a proper off-road drive. It's been A roads, muddy B-roads, tracks and fields only so far which any 4x4 could do. On the roads it drives like a 'utility' Range Rover.Ā And it scampers across wet fields very well. Not a real test...yet.Ā Traditional Defender/SeriesII ownersĀ (several chums of mine)Ā pick holes of course, but they still remain friends At least IĀ won't get a rusty chassis. Sadly, I'm haunted by similarĀ infotainment problems that seem to curse Velar owners. So far, Pivi-Pro has been Pretty Pictures but ProperĀ Poor. First world problems maybe, but they market it as the Dog's doo-dahs. Old/New; which would I prefer to drive round a quarry all day? The old one.Ā But, which would I prefer to drive 500 miles to the quarry via a snowy hill and then go round the quarry? The new one.
