  • This hasn't been seen for a while so I thought i'd resurrect it. I find this stuff fascinating and I hope you do too! Most of the "Defender factory" footage around the internet, including RUclips is known as the B roll footage from around when the 2 millionth Defender was built in May 2015. This footage is longer and has other footage such as seeing the doors and roof being built. It's not the best quality but having been on a factory tour I find it interesting to watch...!

If you'd be interested in a series of videos split up by each section with some things I know or find interesting from the footage, then give this comment a thumbs up 👍

      It was an unforgettable experience and very different from those that I worked for Toyota and Ford in Venezuela, Styer trucks in Styer Austria, MAN in Munich or Saltzgitter, or in Ankara Turkey, Rosenbauer in Leonding Austria or URO Vamtac in Santiago de Compostela Spain.

    Great video, question is where is all the production line and tooling now? Has JLR stored it or has the lot of it gone for scrap? Its been over 5 years since the close of production, are we waiting for JLR Classic / Bowler to get as much mileage out of the Defender as possible. Before a 3rd world? production line could resume? Surely Otokar would have been the ideal candidate for receiving the tooling and continuing production back in 2016?
    Whats your take Will?

  • @gshort4707
    @gshort4707 3 года назад +17

    Superb video.
    I did the tour a few months before production ended. By the end of the tour I understood better what I was looking at at the beginning, especially the difference between the "White body" section and the assembly line. Wish I could have done the tour twice, at least.
    I remember the guy saying that any stop of the the production line was an absolute no no and regarded as a disaster. There was only exception and allowed was to fit the engine/gearbox. RR and Discovery engines could be fitted quite quickly but he complained the Defender took too long - 50 seconds I think he quoted! Though in this video I timed it at about a minute.
    I knowthe assembly line looks quite slow and manpower intensive, but we walked around the whole line in, maybe about, an hour. The assembly line was travelling at about half walking pace which means a heap of vehicle parts got converted into a machine that can drive itself off the assembly line in about 2 hours. Amazing really.
    Would love a series of videos with comments. As far as I know none exist so could become classics that people look back on in years to come.

    Infuriating to watch, in some respects. Seeing those new chassis & drivetrains with barely a flash of paint & no corrosion protection with JLR effectively saying to new owners “you’re on your own now mate !”. Puma Defenders are appear to be the rattiest underneath. A friend owns a ‘64 XS 110 SW who has been up against this from new - I’ve a ‘97 Wolf 110 (& Dinitrol protected from new). Baring in mind mine’s been to various war zones across the globe - I’ll take mine any time 👍

    Thank you for posting this! The factory tour was an absolutely great day, it was such an experience to see where our Defender was made. I Remeber vividly how the guide went to a large crate with metal supports and told us it was one of two parts that have been used in all Series and Defenders since the early days. The sense of it being part of a heritage was almost tangible...
    It was in the last few months of Defender production. The tour guide had one on order and was going to follow it being built the week after our visit. What a thrill that must have been.
    Ours a Td5, wish I could find footage or images of Td5’s being built.

    My first Land Rover was an L88 1973. Then I took break with other brands such as BMW, Honda, Ford and Datsun. I started driving Land Rovers again with a 1999 Discovery, then a 2009 RR HSE and now I drive a 2016 LR4 HSE LUX. I am anxiously waiting for the new 2022 Ineos Grenadier which appears to be a down to earth, no high tech working wagon. Newer Land Rovers are over engineered, and no one can afford vehicle repairs.

    Went to the factory for the tour in the mid 90’s as the Wolf was just starting production. There was a great deal of interest in the Wolf and we were allowed to look over it as it was bolted together. We had to be very aware of the hard driving forklift drivers who all seemed to have a different station on a ‘ghetto blaster’ bungied to the back of their forklifts.

      So he drove around 3 miles with the oil light on… Land Rover didn’t want to know, my mother who was a nurse at the time wrote to them asking for help and showing them how much we have spent with Land Rover over the years and nothing!
      I ordered a new engine and turbo and fitted it myself but still cost my parents £4500… my wife has the disco now and in the 20 years and 185,000 miles that’s only been the major problem, gearbox’s and axles are original and still provides great service!
      It’s picked both my babies up from hospital and my eldest is about to do his driving test in it next Thursday…a true family car mate which has many memories. My advice to anyone running a TD5 is to drop the sump and check that bloody bolt. I run 3 TD5s as work trucks for pulling ships mooring ropes and it’s the first thing I had checked.

    I have had many series 2, 2a 3s and Defender latest is a 101 Forward Control and loved almost every minute of it. had them all apart at one time every time out side and mainly kerbside.
    I could spend a day or two in the factory but actually prefer what I have even in the rain.
    Thanks for the upload.

    Of its time! Great to see advanced 21st Century manufacturing needing use of a file on the door frames and the occasional clout with a mallet. Reassuring that they included a water spray test near the end however to guarantee every vehicle could leak. There's an early 1970s Mercedes W116 S-Class production line film lurking on YT that has a few contrasts to this and Unimog assembly is another therapeutic piece of viewing.

    I am 20 and the 1st gen defender has always been my favorite 4x4 since childhood. Always had a dream of buying one after I get a good white collar job, but now that dream of owning that good old defender with solid axles, coilovers, manual transfer case and a punchy turbo 4 cylinder diesel is no more there for me, and instead a wok SUV for rich lads. Such a big disappointment.

    It looks really easy to work at JLR BUT IT NOT, the guys and girls work hours after hour and get paid for it, but alot hate IT, the way you are treated like your a robot, but you are are not like the ones you see in this film THAT ARE. good job boys and girls keep your faith one day you will get out of the hell that is JLR 😀

    In a competing world, hand built just not practical anymore.
    It is sadden to see such manufacture shut down.
    This company should have reinvented themselves long ago, not slowly built and over cost for completed vehicles.
    The consumers loved to owning one, but the company committed themselves for no competition and dying alone.
    Never get to greedy... competitions everywhere.

    One things that comes across there's too much bending down during assembly. The abensenteeism rate thro being off sick, must have been appalling. Modern assembly is carried out at the height where operatives can work safely without bending down all the time.
    As for mounting the wheels by supporting it by using their feet, and putting wheels nuts on one at a time and having to bend to do so, is simply poor working practice.

    Great video Will. Did you notice the tool to tighten all the wheel nuts at the same time? Did LR buy the engine/gearbox/transfer box already assembled? A narrated video would be great.

    • @lrworkshop
      @lrworkshop  3 года назад

      Thanks Simon. Yeah quite a nifty tool. The engine and transmission came from different suppliers so I imagine they'd be mated in a back room before coming to the chassis as a complete unit

    This is GOOD! Now I'm curious to have a look at the build sheet of my own 130. It was used as an ambulance in the French army. I suspect it was delivered as a single cab-chassis to French ambulance builder Durisotti who put an ambulance and crew unit on the back. But it has also some additional parts. Each wheel has two shocks and HD coils, which is not standard. There is a video I've just uploaded on my channel.
