Hey Guys,

I mostly know about rum, beer, cheese, bicycles, and a little about land cruisers.
Anyone on here acquainted with Land Rover Defenders?

yah, I know Land Rovers are not preferred, but the heart wants what the heart wants.

Not personally. I know they are a bit squishy to drive as there isnt much left arm elbow room. My father in law used to do BC forestry work decades ago and they used these for awhile. Said he has yet to drive another vehicle that felt like the COG was 10 feet below ground, he was quite impressed with what it would do.

The only guy I know that knew these was Lee Shonert. Not sure if he still owns Tires Plus on 91st Street or not. I believe at one time he was Pres of the. Canadian Land Rover Association
