    As a Yank with two Land Rover products (Range Rovers) and having visited Scotland for the first time last May, it was a magical area. Seeing the Eilean Donan Castle in the video brought back a rush of beautiful memories. Honestly, I can't wait to go back.....perfect area for a Defender.

    I have 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee Hemi 5.7 ltr V8. And as its fly's or should i say drives in the face of current automotive trends to reduce engines sizes and go down the EV path it still a cracking wagon for weekends away with the mountain bike. It just covers distances effortlessly and is like a fav pair of jeans when you get into it for the long-haul home. There is still a place for these types of cars. And I hope we don't get to the point where somewhere like Scotland is full of EV charging stations. you just can't beat an old school V8 ICE for character. Loved the video.

    The perfect way to fully test that car is to travel from london all the way up to the Scottish highlands. Going off on an adventure is all about what the defender is all about. Its cool. Im a huge fan of their cars and i thank Land Rover for continuing to work with SupercarsOfLondon on such collaborations. We want you to give more of your vechicles to Paul so he can test them for us.

    Paul, not watched your videos for ages, then I remembered them and here I am, (resubscribed) and happy to be watching them again, only better than before. The Defender V8, aside from the terrible mpg, is such an amazing car, and possibly the last of its kind by them. Around here in Shropshire (at least where I live, we get a lot of Buzzards and Kites). Yesterday there was a large gathering of them, there were more than I could count as they were circling on the thermals, but I managed to count 19 before some of them disappeared from site over our roof. Eagles are fascinating and huge.
    I was lucky enough quite some years ago in a place called Tofino in the pacific rim national park (Vancouver Island), whilst going to see humpback whales, two eagles performed for us during a mating ritual in between the top branchs of some trees right above our heads as we passed underneath them going out to the ocean. Stunning animals and pleased you got your bucket list done. Great photography too. Scotland is a stunning part of the UK.

    As someone in Glasgow, a lot of English RUclipsrs think of GLASGOW or Edinburgh. More often than not its a quick trip to Glen Coe or something. Nice to see you up here Paul - ps so shocked you have 6.5k views a day after upload considering there are nearly 900k subs. What has happened.

    Ha! The Land Rover will be in need of repairs within 3 years. My G63 is 8 years old and I only change the oil once a year/10k miles, absolutely zero issues with my G and yes I take it off road. My Defender on the other hand (along with a Range Rover and a 2 Discoverys) were constantly in the shop…shame because I actually loved all of those trucks. I hope that Land Rover sorts out their reliability issues one day so I can buy another one.

    An off road adventure on Scottish roads is an oxymoron- no matter how bad they are.
    I heard about someone having a grandmother stating : "If you haven't got anything good to say , then say nothing at all" Well, she wasn't my grandmother. Hence I'll tell you why you think it is better than a G waggon : you're English . (Even if you spell it wagon)

      Perhaps, but much like this 130k monstrosity, it will be bought by wealthy urbanites and the closest it will get to mud is the verges of Wimbledon Common on the Sunday morning coffee run. In my opinion, the best car for the Highlands - because at least some of us could afford one, (and more to the point, get our hands on one), would be the Ariel Nomad.
