Mark my words. Although this is the smallest, least powerful and cheapest of Land Rover’s new Defender range, the 90 D240 will become rather rare and collectable. How do I know that? Simple, by observing our automotive history.

Everything you need in one car: Land Rover Defender 90 D240
After more than three years, my wife and I decided to scrape all our camping gear together and to hit our favourite place, the Cederberg Mountains, for a weekend of camping.

Defender gaan elektries
Die nuwe Land Rover Defender is pas plaaslik bekend gestel en ons het reeds die geleentheid gehad om die merkwaardige nuwe tegnologie in hierdie ikoon te aanskou. Die Defender het die mark pas meer verras deur om ‘n hibriede model na Suider-Afrika te bring.
