This is the most prettiest aluminum box on 4 wheels I’ve ever seen. Timeless and beautiful. ❤
It is called aluminium...
@@leviathan5207if your in the u.s it’s not

There is a bone stock 93 NAS 110 that lives on the Armendaris Ranch here in southern NM and whenever I see it coming into town it makes me smile. The 97 NAS 90 would be my choice for offroading.
Have had NAS #158 for 27 years. He’s a family member at this point. Great vid!
That roof rack is boss. Well, the whole thing is awesome, quite a capable spec and you gotta love how functional it is.
Great car. I love a V8 and this one seems to fit the car so well. Compliments also to you. Your videos are so enjoyable and your choice of cars is so fantastic, that you’ve become my favourite RUclipsr. Thanks for your great work!
Thank you very much!
The 4.0 L motor was a descendant of the original Rover V8, correct?
That Landy is so sorted and smoooooth. That is an object of desire.
Pretty much. The 3.5, 3.9, 4.0, 4.3, 4.6...they were all Rover-based. Even the 5.0L used by TVR in their Chimaera and Griffith.
No it was a descendant of the Buick V8 from the 70s - it’s horrific in every sense of the word
@@jjames2162 Which Rover bought the production rights from and kept working on it for years.
@@Roddy_Zeh yes but NEVER got it right. Ever. This D90 has 50k on the vehicle and a 4.6 which was never imported into the Defender. I owned three. If you want one, find a 300TDI. The V8 gets 10-12mpg and you will not escape replacing the vales and manifold every 50k miles regrettably
Edited for spelling correction- tap talk 😂
@@jjames2162 Well, shit...that's unfortunate. :(
It's a shame, really...I like the engine.
It's easier to understand why most do an LS swap on these Defenders, at least in the US.
In one of their latest videos, Darkside Development did a BMW N57 + ZF 8HP swap on one, which is ironic, since the Ineos Grenadier, said to be the spiritual successor to the original Defender, actually uses BMW powertrains, albeit the more modern B58 gas and B57 diesel units.
He almost sounded like Doug DeMuro for a second. 6:32
The defender is such an iconic car 👌
I agree, I have a few!
What a beauty and what a sound oh. Love the NAS Defenders. They are just so cool and special in my opinion.
The Mighty V8.
❤❤❤❤❤
My dad has owned defenders all my life, only competition in America is a jeep wrangler
Best stock engine for this era of Defender is the TD5 5 cylinder Diesel. With an ECU remap they are pretty potente.
green td5 on white steelies 👀
The Defender was built in Pretoria, South Africa, with the TD5 mated with the Disco II's autobox for the Aussie military. Apparently this is the only version of the Defender ever made with this combination.
Another interesting South African development of the Defender was the 90 2.8i, fitted with an adapted BMW M50B28TU and 5-speed manual. All of 141 kW and AWD in the shorty body made for a most unlikely performance truck. Scarily rapid, considering that the suspension and brakes were left as with the normal V8. They later received a governor to limit (!) it to 160 km/h...
Wow! A shame they aren't allowed make them like this anymore...
I know!
They were made in brazil until 2001 with a 2.5 Maxion diesel engine. The last ones are pretty well equipped with aircon, power windows, locks, but no auto box and only 115hp
So simple yet so beautiful. Gotta love a Defender. Thank you for showing us all of these great vehicles. Love your channel!!
LET'S GO, forget them bronco's and jeeps. risk being diferent and get you an oldie european defender or gelandewagen. They will make you happier and look better than the americans next to the porsche
It will be a headache most are not willing to endure.
Nice and rare the automatic transmision. The utility design result and atractive vehicule.
I own a 2007 Defender. I know NAS is rare, but Puma is much improved. I think they will be popular in the US.
What makes a landy fun/terrible is a lot of the body designed is very outdated/flawed. Leaks will always come back, which means rust will always come back. Flat doors have no structural strength and are prone to cracking. Aluminium corrodes when it comes in contact with steel and the vehicle is built from aluminium (alloy) and steel. These old style doors that the NAS have are actually steel with aluminium skin, so the door is almost guaranteed to rust out. Ultimately this means the car needs to be rebuilt every 10 to 20 years. Luckily it's quite an easy job as far as rebuilds go and can easily be done at home. Some people even just paint the panels with a brush. There's a guy in my area who as painted an underwater mural on his :/
Absolutely looooove these 90's
I agree
I have one of the last defender 90s built in the Solihull factory in England and i absoulutely love her 2013 with only 35,000 miles i wouldn't ever get rid of her she is fantastic for towing, and as an general 4x4. Plus many many years ago decades before i was born before i was born in the 1970s my mum and dad had a black lifted series 3.
I have a multitude of Defender experiences in my history, but even with all that exposure still struggle to see the appeal. It's a great off-roader, but hopeless in every other way.
First exposure was a Series III 109 with a Ford Essex 3.0 V6 conversion - all the rage back then in South Africa. The engine was sourced from a Ford Granada, and so the thing became known as the Grover. Still slow, noisy and bumpy, so the original BL 2.6 (?) or four-pot must have been excruciating.
Later in life, a succession of modified Landies came across my path for electronic tuning, and while they were better than the Grover, they were still crude, inefficient, and cramped. That narrow cabin and crude aftermarket air con eats into shoulder and leg space, while the centre console is unnecessarily wide. The ventilation is a joke, everything is hard and brittle plastic on later models, the driveline shunt on manual models are terrible, and they crumble upon rollover. At least the latter can be addressed with a neat roll cage as in the featured car, which does appear to be a very nice example.
I actually drove a Final Edition 110 for a week in its dying year, fitted with the Ford Puma turbodiesel (2.2-litre four) and a six speed manual. While the vehicle was certainly the nicest Defender ever to come from the factory floor, right down to electric windows (more add ons), I just couldn't help thinking that its greatest accomplishment was convincing so many people to keep buying them for 67 years. This zombie lived for four decades too long.
The coolest-looking one was a shorty, kitted out Lara Croft style, with a warmed over 4.6 that went quite well.
Isn't the entire point of getting a defender to get a simple/basic and capable offroader?
The Hilux and Landcruiser have much more utility.
Aww, screw Land Rover!
The Land Cruiser made them irrelevant. It’s what made the whole “if you want to come back bring a land cruiser” thing.
I wanted a Defender since I was 8 years old. Nothing has changed since then.
I have a 1997 Defender 110 that was made in and exclusively for South Africa during the period Land Rover was owned by BMW. It came from factory with the BMW M52B28 2.8i straight six petrol. They’re very rare. Only a few hundred ever built. And it’s an absolute belter. Would love to see if you could try find one stateside to test out (or come have a vacation in SA and try mine) 🙃
I just love the fact that if you were to have me listen to the clip 18:14 of it accelerating and not shown the video I would have thought it was a Uhaul accelerating
such an underrated channel
Thanks! Share with friends :)
@@TedwardDrives for sure brotha
That is one clean defender!
Really is!
Defenders starts in 1986 so it isnt as old construction. Its based on Range Rover Classic (1970). And design is borrowed from Land Rovers Series III and 110/90 (pre Defenders).
There's a lot of charm in these Land Rovers, no wonder JLR themselves keep making it, and even Ineos going ahead to do an even more closer intrepretation to this old Defender.
Great video!
I own and am in the process of restoring a 1966 Series 2a, which is the grandfather to this vehicle. I’d love to own a Defender but the prices are ridiculous here in the US!
Such a cool car
There's a parking lot crammed full of Land Rovers, both left and right hand drive, across the street from my usual mechanic. I assume it's a specialist shop or importer but I've never seen anyone around to ask. They're fun to look at, would never own one though.
Love the Defenders
as a brit, makes me proud knowing that Americans love the Defender as much as we do. such a shame the Defenders been turned in to a luxury vehicle, instead of being its iconic rugged off roader.
So many jumped stop signs! Man I usually hate torque converters but I'm not opposed to an automatic in this kind of vehicle.
Tom needs a v6 tdi touareg
Can we get a civic type r snow drive pov with the snow tires this year maybe?????
Absolutely!
Almost everything is period correct except the modern winch. Love the Camel Trophy style brush guards. You can’t get those anymore. This will be pricey for sure!
I own a 96 2.8L Defender 90. thing is Great!
What about ECD Automotive design? U should try their restore model.
you should drive a 5 speed 4.0 2010 ranger! they are pretty neat and i drive one daily!
sick box
Hard to hate a square!
Squares rule!
This is such a treat!
I think they used one of these in the first car chase scene in Bourne supremacy
"Almost none of them are alike" except in Europe where every single one has an M57 or OM606 in it.
They really don’t.
Too bad that even in Europe, they are so expensive that it's impossible to buy them...
Very nice Land Rover,one of the best land Rover ever made.With this car you can go to the End of the world…Car for apokalipse
Any chance of reviewing a shorty G wagen? Like one of those brought down by Europa? Also typical Land Rover fuel sending unit I see.
Nice 🔥
It’s actually a 92.9 inch wheelbase.
The price ruins these things for me
If it didn’t have a Buick engine it would be a good vehicle. You’ll need to replace those valves and manifolds every 55-60k miles like clockwork - have fun
The Buick design was considerably modified by Rover. The original 3.5 liter engine in my '87 Ninety lasted around 250k without any replacements. My current engine has done over 100k so far
@@edmundholmes7559 Feel free to google it 😂 but sip a good scotch or whiskey first and breathe deeply
@@edmundholmes7559what’s the mpg like
@@eragonandsaphira1843 The engine is somewhat tuned and running an aftermarket performance carb, but does around 18mpg on a run (about 15mpg in US gallons). I'd guess that the fuel injected 4.6 on this video might do slightly better, driven gently.
If this was black it’s totally a badass mafia boss ride
Very Bond villain
Black is not a color
Somehow slower than the Bronco haha!
felt a heck of a lot more stable though! haha
Slowmatic dosen't help
Vrooooom
Beyond rarity/age, I'm lost as to why these are so expensive. Everything about them seems so incredibly cheaply made.
You have to be a Land Rover lover to understand. The driving position is like no other vehicle. It’s an experience.
Even by Indian standards, this interior is quite basic for the 90s.
Always sounds weird when Americans call a Land Rover a Rover,
Nice driving of one Ugly car !
You're crazy!!! This is beautiful
What are you talking about it looks great
@@TedwardDrives it is a Shitty box , sorry for me is Ugly !@
