Land Rover Defender Works V8 - review: aex.ae/2IufOGL
The Land Rover Defender is back. But before you get excited and start waving your Union flag with patriotic fervour, it isn’t as simple as that. To celebrate the firm’s 70th birthday, Land Rover has launched a run of limited edition Defender models. However, unlike a Jaguar D-Type or E-Type Lightweight, the 2018 Works V8 70th Edition isn’t a brand-new continuation model, instead it’s a heavily re-engineered ‘old’ Defender…

"The noise!!" *proceeds to play ridiculous music to mask the actual noise from the car*
Sausage and chips?! The V8 Defender is a big, rare, meaty steak!
He does like a sausage by the look of it..
that was hilarious really...😂
@@SM-li2yp 😂🤣😅
The V8 defender is more like running up to the cow and taking a bite out of it
It still makes me cry inside when I´m remindet that they stopped making the Defender. Now Land Rover is just another soccer mom SUV brand.
Keine Namen the 575bhp Supercharged V8 RR Sport SVR is a “soccer mom SUV”? I don’t think so buddy. Sure they make some cars that appeal to buyers doing the school run but that is what allows them to achieve the money to create monsters like the SVR and this defender. Car manufacturers cater for the mass market not the very small segment of car enthusiasts that don’t even have the money to put down a deposit.
Go look at the new Grenadier. I will restore your faith in the world.
@@rocknrolldrummer96 There is some brilliant engineers behind the Grenadier, it will be the vehicle Land Rover should have built.
@@harveysmith100 rubbish
@@audionut9974 What is rubbish? The brilliant engineering or the vehicle Land Rover should have built?
Imagine The Queen agressively overtaking you in this thing! With her outdoor head scarf and all!
Let’s admit it, this is probably the coolest car somebody who loves cars Can buy, at least us who loves defenders... and that Classic look of the old defender is just gorgeous that’s a face, it’s probably top 3 or 5 best looking cars ever made
How is this guy a presenter? This vehicle is not truly respected when they got this guy to present it!!!
Het Jeremy Clarkson on it!!!!!
stunning car, completely unwatchable presenter
متعه
when you've bought a landrover defender the ONLY REAL TOOL is YOU.
Let me present it next time! 😃
I love the classic look and it's great to see 'another edition' added to the 'now ceased production Defender series! 👍
70 year old design? Honestly what a pile of crap... You're referring to the series 1 which couldn't be more different. That's like comparing a smart car to an F40.
If you're going to make statements in videos at least keep them factual..
yup, the Defender was introduced in 1983. It wasn't a new design though, rather a much improved version of the Series III from 1971.
dcanmore the 110 was introduced in ‘83. The Defender name wasn’t used until 1990
yes, correct, the name change was brought in to distinguish it from the new Discovery.
I can’t do it. That voice. I just can’t...
Not the best Defender ever but the best offroad too. Even it's style inspired the Mercedes, Tata & Iveco ,all of them copied & learnt with the Defender
The car: WANT. The presenter: PASS.
haha no hes great
ALLO CHAPS
goostuff
Tell us how you really feel
Absolutely he is copying Jeremy Clarkson. Those are all Jeremy Clarkson lines. Chrochendo..... he would say symphony. this idiot is the Carlos Mencia of presenters.
possibly the worst presenter on any channel, anywhere in the civilised world.
have you seen Dennis Gage? lol!
Pete Mills, you must watch a video called « caterham R400 noise » then you can understand his passion for real mens cars ! 😂
@@dcanmore I like to know what Gage is hiding behind that feculent mustache.
This Guy is Terrible
Newton Gonzalez ..no he's great
I can’t with this guy
André Montes Don’t watch it then. He’s just reviewing cars for people.
Bamby Choi exactly! I don’t.
Gays can't relate to straight men about cars 👉😲
31syco Think about that next time you grasp your gearnob and relish in a fast gear change LOL.
André Montes you can’t what?
Screw electric crossovers. This is where it's at!
A review without interior? Incomplete!!
Old Defender was marvel
Was looking forward to watching, then realised Lord Snooty was narrating and lost interest. Aunt Lavinia’s Croquet hoops look awfully pretty tho.
Does anyone else think this guy should stop reviewing cars?
🤣🤣
Sorry, that's your opinion.
Please remove Smigol from the videos.....
stick a v8 in it and charge 150k.... yeah no...
OTT with a supercharger when Twisted Automotive get more bhp out of their LS3 Corvette V8s?! Come on man!!!
land rover made a huge mistake when they stopped production of the defender. jeep still make the wrangler, Mercedes the G wagon, and they sell.
driving on the wrong side?
My dream motor Car ;;;land Rover ( old model ) ''the King of 4x4;;;,,,,i love to drive in my life time''',,
For some reason I didn’t feel comfortable when he said “ if you have big enough balls “🤔
This is the most annoying host ever.
I'm from the 2020. Nd the new 2020 defender really really sucks
I’m sorry but I’ve still not warmed to your review style, the sole reason I unsubscribed from your other channels and now unsubscribing from this.
Sorry
Don't cry for me Argentina
I don't get the self esteem in these people, the guy is talking to the world I don't think you unsubscribing and letting the world know that it is infact you that is unsubscribing is going to make him regret being overtly British.
He was painful to watch the Defender kept me watching!
“Tap to mute” YES
Get rid if this presenter !
Wolfie no he's great
He would be better off reviewing wines
Wish they still made this, the new suvs look crap. This is robust
the old defender looks more classy than the 2023
I think someone with more appreciation for Land Rovers ideas with this one would have made more sense.
I was watching this while im holding a *LAND ROVER TOY* :D
It should be £70 grand max not £160,000 that's insane!
I bet they sell them though. Lots of idiots about who want something 'exclusive' - that you could actually do in your garage at home.
Richard Hammond would have been best to review this.
Lol what sausage and chips 😂😂😂
Awesome machine even though limited run. Drove a original civilian LR V8 110 In Early 1980S. British Army had it on trail at Hereford, but the regiment preferred the Gucci Range Rovers. So we had it for a couple of weeks, a battleship grey V8 with black vinyl seats.. It was really unstable and a beast! No idea what happened to it. But could be hidden in some storage depot somewhere, rusting away.
I had hoped to get some quality review of this amazing 4WD. All he talks about is the noise... and the style. Not one word about what this car is designed for: adventure and off roading. I can't imagine a worse review. Clearly this man has zero knowledge about this car.
Did this soy boy really have to review this
better than no one
Hope you're ok. Sounds like you've had to confront some awkward insecurities you've been struggling with.
not just a soy boy but a nut nibbler
dirk diggler Imagine when you have to confront your insecurities.
Hate speech.
I love the defender's boxy shape and even more fitted with v8 powerplant. It stands out different when driving it. I am planning to get one
Finally a proper and exciting 4X4. What an amazing rig!
It might be noisy but the engine sound so nice...well 4 me that is
That guy doesn’t belong in that manly car
The best,,4x4 ever made, just it just for man we love it
Forget the jibes at the presenter, it's that NA V8 which I have in my Dicovery 4 before they chucked in that V6 supercharged. Naturally aspirated V8 in a Landrover was the best decision.
It's like he's just disrespecting the car the purpose , they should fire him tbh he's terrible
Why do I feel like I'm at the hairdresser ? (this not not homophobic, it's hairdresserphobic)
Nothing to write home about what does your picture mean??
The best
This is the defender we needed, not the new discovery 4 in disguise with a range rover chassis. Just needed to improve the sound insulation and the integrity of the bodywork and many other bits to make it safer and refined. Like the Gwagen.
The most non manly non outdoors man reviews the most manly outdoors car in uk. Excellent.
Ever shot a rabbit. No
Ever spent 4 days with minimal camping gear. Probably No
Ever driven over 9 miles of rough track for fun. Definitely No.
Drunk 10 pints of Guiness. Obviously No.
Defender life. Forever. Yes.
if they wanna make something special, how about a Land Rover that is reliable. Now there's a thought
Thank you for the special offer, if possible, how much this monster is worth.
Sausage & chips? Nope. It’s a huge steak. Medium rare.
If you have an engine like that, saddling it with an automatic gearbox is retarded. Loads of your power is sapped away, the noise is distorted with the groaning ebb and flow of the auto’s workings and it’s just all a bit crap. I say this having tried a few restomodded Landies and Range Rover Classics. If you have to have a V8, it needs to be a manual or you’re better off sitting back and relaxing with a diesel.
Ah...the Defender? A military vehicle available to the public? To test it properly, you'd have to go to where it lives. I guess that would be where the people who really use it are? You seem like a very nice boy... I don't suppose we'll be seeing you out here anytime soon?
Trying to be Jeremy Clarkson and Richard Hammond (also a bit annoying) and some Quentin Wilson is spoiling this review.
Saya rasa penyampai klip video ni ok aje...infomatif dan menarik...cheers from kuala lumpur😎
Kemarin pulang kerja liat di bekasi
Land rovers would be perfect if they just got rid of their motors and tranny, oh and their wiring. Why are we watching an off road vehicle on a road? If you are just going to cruise on paved roads, why beat yourself up with stiff suspension and body roll?
He looks like he should be reviewing something that requires “D” cell batteries.
Piggyback from a drunk? No, it's a monster who calls Jeep Wranglers a small snack
Csodálatosan dolgozik a V8-as JAGUAR motor!
I think soft boy just soiled himself !
He should go back to his Prius. He is not worthy of this icon! Somebody get this buffoon out of the vehicle before he hurts himself.😖
Looking forward to this review up until I heard who it was...
I've always wanted on of these
I love this presenter, I think he is hilarious.
"Nahhhh we'll just stick a great big v8 in it". 😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😅😅
Its Quentin Wilson's love child again.
looking at the comments, this guy attacked and the Landrover Defended itself. Why critic it and you are not even fit for it?
He is sooooooo annoying. Please get rid him
I have heard the begining into bgm somewhere else... 😆😁🔥🔥🔥only legends will get it
Plenty of room in the back for his Poodles when he drives to Crufts !!!!
A classical gem. I don't know what that means. I'd love to own one.
This is what looks like when you hand a great machine into the hands of an idiot........
Put your foot down on the throttle and you get this CRESCENDO !!!
the presenter is pretty annoying I'm sorry. I really wanted to watch the video.
Trying wayyyy too hard to be motor trend. The guy is terrible at presenting. Big thumbs down
This guy is better off reviewing FIAT 500 in yellow color
With the prices of petrol nowadays I would rather have that old noisy diesel engine
2:54 the car just pooped
You are the Carlos Mencia of presenters. Get out of here
Can you do a kids g63 with a clothes close to roof a boot and $4.40
More beautiful than 2020 one
Where is Steve Sutcliffe or Chris Harris?
At the non-gay car review media
Worst presentation of a Legendary vehicle..
That guy belongs in a Prius. A pink Prius.......
Fire the presenter whom goes by the name "James Batchelor"
the mere presence of this presenter ruins this fabulous vehicle.
خاوتي بقداه بصواردنا يا الجزايرين يهديكم ربي 🤔
Dislike due the presenter. Thought no one would put me off a Defender.
Stop trying so hard to be Clarkson. Be someone else like...
I love it...I want it supercharged too...lol
This guy is way too posh to be reviewing that car
Nobody ever bought a Defender because of the noise it makes.
You either love this land rover, or you love other vehicles. Simple as that! Comparing this iconic land rover to the new Defender is like..I don't know, comparing something to something else just because they carry the same name..
