Great review. I love how you can do weekends off road and then clean up and the car looks and drives great in the city.

This is one of the best review for features interior etc. Well done. I wish you would have covered more driving thoughts. Hoping you do one for the 90.

Easily the most thorough review I’ve seen of this vehicle yet. Nice work. You got me excited to place my order. Thanks for posting.

21:11 That box I believe is the auxiliary cooler for the rear AC system. I only see that box in models with the rear AC option. The compressor actually would go next to the box between the wall with the air suspension switch and that box.

Really enjoyed your Lotus Evora 400 GT review. Keep up the great work.

Such a detailed walk through, top top. Thanks Forrest man. Manual trans would been a joy.

saw a few on the road , I do not like the optional fender arches on this one, looks amazing in real life going down the road

Had XS Edition for 10 days. Very consistent with Forrest’s excellent review. An Ace vehicle for serious work and leisure pleasure….oh, and cool with it.

Great review. Love the new Defender. Do a Defender 90 review when they finally get here.

I’ve never seen such a front fender demonstration.. never knew they were built to that quality. Great video 👍🏻

So glad you finally have ( or I found ) your channel!

Nice thorough review and a great vehicle; looking forward to having one!

Awesome detailed review! Will you do an off road UI function review? Like where the buttons are and when to engage those function.

Your content is so smooth and my style. Keep it up love what you do.

Nice review , I’ve just bought a 110 Dynamic X HSE in the same colour. Burgers are Chequer plate a design from the older defender (plastic was metal) and the rear seats are galleried so passengers can see what’s going on. The flat load area with all seats down makes this a great camping 4x4

I’ve got a 1997 defender p90 NAS British Racing Green. Bought it as part of a farm equipment sale. Sat in my barn for a few years before I even knew the value of the thing. Apparently the seller didn’t know the value either here in America. I am strongly considering buying a new v8 110 when they release.

I just bought one, I am a female and really just thought it was so cool looking. This is my 5th Landrover, started with a Range Rover , had a LR 4 , 2 Discovery Sports and Now this. It is so Big. Seeing it and driving it did not seem as big, but getting home to garage is is super tall. I am 5’1”. Inside the car though driving you feel like you’re in your own world. It feels so sound, so solid and just amazing. I like this video it is helping me learn about my new companion. The technology it it seems amazing yet not too complicated . Mine has a charger thing to lay your phone on without even plugging it it. Curious how many buyers are females?

I'd actually love to know how you feel about driving it being your height. I'm 5ft even and have been really interested in this vehicle but everyone else I know who has it says they have trouble reaching the pedals and sitting up in the car at our height. Did you raise the pedals or are you sitting on something? I want to buy it but I'm scared I won't be able to see over the steering wheel.

I like to hop into it. I know you can get running boards if that bothers you but I am good and a physical person .

I prefer the Toyota the FJ cruiser over any other SUV ...this vehicle caught my eye... Job well done on the break down / walk around..honesty was on display.. ThankYou

I love the looks of this vehicle. I was all set to purchase a 2020 or 2021 until I reviewed many issues coming up even on day 1 that the vehicle is picked up from the dealer. It is interesting that at the beginning of the video the comment of “they are not known for their reliability” or something along those lines is mentioned. How can Land Rover be content with the reliability issues? As much as I want this vehicle, the thought of it being in the shop more than it should be bothers me. Hopefully this will be a more reliable vehicle in the 2022 model year.

Beautiful, an urban gentleman in an urban vehicle. That's the target for this car now.

The 2022 model should be a larger improvement due to a better understanding of weaknesses. 2023 model should be a much larger improvement since LR should know by then how to solve the problems they’re having as well as refine the manufacturing process. Of course, this depends on them not making a dumb decision to try out a bunch of brand new things before perfecting what they already have.

In every test I have seen (I live in the UK), the new Land Rover has outperformed the old with similar tyres off-road.

Your opening was perfect. The new Defender is an SUV, unlike the prior model's which were 4x4's like the Bronco and Wrangler. Land Rover should've named it a Discovery.

This is my favourite Land Rover

Hopefully the reliability problems (made famous by TFL) are "mostly" due to first year production issues that happen even with cars that have much better reliability (ex. the new Isuzu Dmax) but yeah since it's Land Rover the odds are not in it's favour when it comes to reliability.

Hi. I would like to know which model of the Toyota that Daniel Craig was driving as 007 and which none of Defenders managed to win. Thank you so much.

Good balanced review. If the other review you referred to is the other US review I watched, those people were idiots. Anyone with any sense knows that with modern cars, if there any electronic warnings, you switch the car off and on again before opening bonnets and going into panic mode. They went into panic mode straight away. As a professionally trained off road driver (army), I have never got stuck or broke down in a Land Rover - ever. I owned a Disco too years ago. The reason is that I was trained, and the vehicles were looked after by people who were properly trained.

I love this car I am gonna get this one in black thank you for the video

Such a versatile vehicle as I am find me one

I like the video style. Keep using your real voice.

Forrest, recently you reviewed a 2020 Land Cruiser Heritage Edition, which helped me with the decision of getting one. How does it compare with the Land Rover when going off-road? It's obvious Toyota has the edge in reliability and the Rover has the edge in tech - just curious which one you'd consider superior for the trails.

@forrestsautoreviewsofficial

I think they could both be pretty neck & neck in terms of capabilities. For a fully independent set up, it’s truly an understatement to say that this is an impressive machine. Compared to a Land Crusier where the chassis flex gives clue to how much work it’s putting in, this Defender doesn’t “flex”. This really hides how well this vehicle performs to the trained off-roader’s eye. The ground clearance on the Defender (in maximum height) is a tad better than the Land Cruiser. I’d be interested to see one of these kitted out. It would be one capable machine, however, the massive question mark is reliability when compared to the legendary Cruiser.
