What our customers are saying about the Land Rover Defender
Samer - I wanted a Wrangler pickup, and as one still isn’t officially out, I bought a pre-owned Land Rover Defender 110 pick up and it suits the bill somewhat perfectly. Could use a little more power, but off road, it's the best. Pros: Offroad capabilities. Cons: Down on power.
Ben - My used 1997 Defender still looks amazing to this day and fits right in with the rest of the Defenders to this day. I did want to buy a petrol version, but they weren’t GCC specs. Pros: Resale price and iconic looks. Cons: Only available in the GCC as Diesel and it’s manual.
Carlos - I had a Defender 90 series back in the UK and just had to buy a second-hand one in Dubai as they are just awesome cars, they may be bare inside, but they get the job done and can traverse any terrain. Pros: Can traverse any surface. Cons: Interior options and price.
