ChrisH Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Just seen the end of Fifth Gear they said "they would be test driving the New defender Next week that the 11 June 07" I think they said on 38" tyres just a early warning for those that have just got a new Defender...

Kev Baldwin Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 This is the 'Bigfoot' Icelandic style 110 on 38's LR Special Vehicles built. Devon 4x4 supplied most of the parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holyzeus Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 not much of a test but a very nice truck B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daskoff Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 not much of a test but a very nice truck B) Since I'm in Moscow I do not get 5th Gear. Anyone care to summarize?? The Defenders will be available in Moscow at the end of June. Will have to go take a look. BTW, the prices are ridiculously low compared to you guys in the UK. What gives? Are the trucks different or are you guys subsidizing the Russian market?? Anyway the range is $32K USD for a entry level 90 to $39K USD for a fully loaded 110 and these are out the door prices (VAT, reg., etc.)! Thats like 20K Sterling for a fully loaded 110. Amazing, but I digress. So if anyone can comment on the show..... Regards, Adrian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Top90 Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 The show stated it had the 'transit' engine and the heater and seats were better. That's about it. Did not mention the folding rear seats, 6 speed box or other changes. Just a good excuse for a presenter to go for a play in Iceland really. I mean, not many of us will buy them with 38 inch tyres and all the other stuff..... that comes later. Seen loads more info on landrovers sites. For you that will be: www.landrover.ru Happy shopping.
