What should we do to Richard's Defender next? 🤔 Thanks to Liqui Moly for sponsoring today's video, check out their new car care products here: bit.ly/LiquiMoly-24-CARCARE
What to do next? Step one. Undo everything you just did. You spent 5k and turned it into paris hiltons handbag. Step two, take it to mahker, they have a clue how to build a landrover.
We would be more than happy to help with the next step in upgrading Richard's Defender! Interior Upgrades, Seats, Carpet, Cubby Boxes & CNC Manufactured Billet aluminium internal and external accessories, Made in Britain! All the best Exmoor Trim
If it is still prone to breaking greasy bits, perhaps some choice drivetrain upgrades to make it tougher and of course more power to help move the brown barn through the air a bit quicker?
Very nice. Anyone else notice James May's little Crosley vehicle from The Grand Tour, on a trailer, in the back at 15:09 and 15:11? Glad to see Hammond likes the mods. Thanks.
Some great modifications chaps. Also, everyone needs a winch on their Land Rover right?! As Richard delicately explains "Pulling the red hooky thing" makes it all worthwhile 🙂 That spoiler just makes it.....
THANK YOU for pulling up the 'back seat of your rover' lyric. Before my head clicked that it was a land/Range Rover I thought it might have been a 25 or 75
Just here to say it sure would be great if we could watch Hammond’s Workshop here in the U.S. Why on earth would they block what is likely his biggest audience? Make it happen guys!
Is up to Drive Tribe now to take the Grand Tour's torch. I hope the trio continues to do some road trips and take us along. Maybe they're "too old and fat" (Jemery's words, not mine) for crazy adventures, but not for some nice road trips, hanging out, talking and enjoying cars, and messing around like always.
Have none of you heard of Mahker Landrover, just one look at their RUclips offerings each week will give you a totally new prospective, and there could be in my view tie ups for both workshops?
Dear Drivetribe team, I own a lovely 1984 land rover 110 campervan that will look stunning with all those bits that you just took off from Hammond's landy. Happy to collect them at a reasonable price lol please get in touch if interested
I remember specialist leisure fitting same stuff to Richard's old 110, think it was called buster, years ago, I have his old bull bar, off buster,in the garage somewhere! (Specialist leisure went bust, soon after) just saying.
Richard as an American, I’m so jealous of your Defender. I was lucky enough to get my hands on a 1991, 200TDI, British Import Defender here in the states. However, it chasing parts with their significant mark up and of course having a shop to treat Gypsy right that is challenging. I’m assuming she’s had a bit of a hard life before, and I’m just doing my best to keep her up and going. Eventually, one day I might get to a frame off restoration. She really is a wonderful old girl and deserves better than I can give her right now. Best of luck.
Mike uno the rover 45 had a sports compact called the impression s which had a 1.8 turbo k -series but.... the one I have has a k20 in it because there just better
Can you still get in it with an old metal coat hanger? Do the door seals leak? Does the heater only work after a 50 mile drive. It's a workhorse not a range rover with a winch. Nice but not for me.

Some interior bits, Alcantara headliner ??

Well, with the new aero in the back, the front needs to step up. How about a China splitter? Just what a defender needs. 🤷🏼

Richard didn't notice the tiny spoiler they put on the back of it, I'm absolutely gutted about that
Same here
I hope he will brag with the mods to Clarkson... he will surely notice it ;)
Y would he he's not tall enough.
Same
He’s going to die laughing when he notices it naturally tho i bet
Sounds like Richard would appreciate whatever drivetrain frailties he mentioned being beefed up.
The Kenyan bracelet 🇰🇪 Much love watching from Kenya ❤
I thought I was hallucinating.
Don't forget his favourite cd, put one copy in ever tray, genesis, he loves that album
I hate that bit
Where did richard find those goodyear wrangler MT/R tires? They haven't made that tread design in years
Must be country specific, I can get that tred at my local tyre shop.
here in Germany you can still order it. some defenders were origin on this
When is season 4 of the workshop coming? Can’t wait for the new series to drop.
Fantastic mods !! Winch, steps, spare tire holder. Best was that spoiler 😂 that down force is going to be awesome!!!
Very nice. Anyone else notice James May's little Crosley vehicle from The Grand Tour, on a trailer, in the back at 15:09 and 15:11? Glad to see Hammond likes the mods. Thanks.
Oi! I spy a gin enthusiast's tiny little Crosley! 15:11
Sharp eye! Oooh I'm hoping they do something with it on the channel.
wasnt that james mays car in one of the older episodes?
Well spotted!
Was looking for someone else who had spotted it
It needs a Hayabusa swap, it would be hilarious and probably dangerous :)
watching this from Kenya and i cant help but notice that Kenyan bracelet on your arm.. Lots of respect
Watching from Kenya too
Another Kenyan noticed that as well...
I noticed that kenyan flag bracelet too 😂
Bana bana
He should address the country as a matter of urgency.
“You’re not putting tartan on it are you?”
Hilarious
Great work Richard. That work really made so much money for the Cog.
That winch is causing some serious sag in the front end - they need to throw a puck or new springs on.
Nah it's just lowered so Hammond could get into it 😂
You guys got me with the photoshopped wheels & snorkel, lol.
It warms my heart to watch a grown child play with his new toy.
Very cool to see some ORE kit on Hammond’s Defender
I've got quite a bit of ORE on my Landy and it's good kit!!
Modified Defenders make me excited. Fizz engaged!
You can't beat a Landy mod session 👌🏻 😎 🇬🇧
Some great modifications chaps. Also, everyone needs a winch on their Land Rover right?! As Richard delicately explains "Pulling the red hooky thing" makes it all worthwhile 🙂 That spoiler just makes it.....
That winch is gonna get some workout.. Richard couldn't even find the horn😂
The Kenya wristband made me smile. +254 to the world
Can't unsee that kenyan flag on mike's hand. Kenya to the world🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
Mike, loving the low key snark between you and Anthony
The Crosley in the background 👀
Yeah spotted that too, never thought that would show up again 😂😂
@@MudSluggerBP Pretty sure James said he didn’t want it. Maybe hammond had an idea to do something with it 🤔
@@Sid3300 well it is pretty much the crappest car ever bought for one of their specials. Almost ruined that episode for me 🤷🏻♂️
I would take it home too, lol
I noticed that too.
hilarious that richard never noticed the tiny spoiler, odds are he only found out when watching this video (if and when he does)
The kenyan 🇰🇪 bracelet is 💥💥
Is that James May’s car from the Grand tour special ?
😊
nice one Michael seen the Kenya wrist band on you cheers brother
THANK YOU for pulling up the 'back seat of your rover' lyric. Before my head clicked that it was a land/Range Rover I thought it might have been a 25 or 75
The three part winch front bumper was available from land rover special vehicles years ago i have one on my 06 defender and its a galvanised bumper
This is like the shopping channel
Great video, love Land Rover, you should do complete Defender build on the channel ❤❤❤❤
So good! Loved this guys
15:37 is that james car from the grand tour special in the back ground 🤔
We won't remind Richard of the time, when he fitted a winch to the front of a Mini Cooper.😂
The Kenyan Bracelet 😍!
Is that James May's Crossley in the shot?
Timestamp?
Yes! I noticed that too.
Nice Nu-Venture bus profile photo 👍
I've seen your Kenyan bracelet. Come meet the Land Rover community here. You'll love it!
Hammond, the eternal child at heart, a living legend 👍
So this is Richards pride and joy…
Cut to footage of lads cleaning bodywork with a yard brush ! 😂
Spot of lanogaurd needed next👌🏻
Land Rover Parts - "Bolt-on no worries" haha ha ha!
Great mods, it's a shame Richard hadn't noticed that spoiler.
I'd like to see how that new light bar looks at night!
the Ducks hat is life
Can’t wait for the video with him finding the rear wing 😝 and looked like the hamster almost got wood winching them tons….. 😝
That back wheel looks nice and straight lol
At 19:43... that´s a Kadett A Caravan! 😀
Just here to say it sure would be great if we could watch Hammond’s Workshop here in the U.S. Why on earth would they block what is likely his biggest audience? Make it happen guys!
Is up to Drive Tribe now to take the Grand Tour's torch. I hope the trio continues to do some road trips and take us along. Maybe they're "too old and fat" (Jemery's words, not mine) for crazy adventures, but not for some nice road trips, hanging out, talking and enjoying cars, and messing around like always.
oh goody... this one is not just for members 🥳
Are those recovery point on the new front bar rated for recovery?
Have none of you heard of Mahker Landrover, just one look at their RUclips offerings each week will give you a totally new prospective, and there could be in my view tie ups for both workshops?
surprised how much rust. Do they salt the roads in winter in the UK?
When will series 4 of Richard Hammonds workshop come out
Someone is wearing a Kenyan flag bracelet 🎉. Another awesome episode!
Totally not suspicious of the other vehicles being hooked up to each other already 😂😂
Just watched Hammond's TH cameo - and "spoiler alert" when does he find the new aero addition?
When he said who thought of that I bet there's an an engineer sitting at home watching this video going YOU THOUGHT OF WHAT MATE?
my step dad did his old v8 defender and he worked on this one too
15:09. Is that James's Crosley?
Maybe it's ammo for the trebuchet.
Only rover bit I've found so far are the side indicators, rest of the borrowed bits pre date mg-rover
interesting that winch is running cable. Havent most people switched over to winch rope?
Fortunatley no mike was hurt during the making of this film :)
Looks cool 👍❤️
On any wire cable a canvas blanket should be layer over it in case it goes just a bit wrong
I’ll start with the defender shared Rover parts, Rover 25 interior lamp and Rover 45 side repeaters 😁
Earlier defenders also use a Rover 620ti hydraulic clutch damper 😎
Is that an XK120 Jag in the background?
I spotted a Crossley. I wonder who drove one of those recently...

I'm a simple man. I see the Kenyan 🇰🇪 bracelet, I hit like and share!

It isn't, never was , and never will be a Land- Rover !!!
It's a LANDROVER.😂😂😂
safety first .... when winching you should place a winch blanket over the middle of the cable in case the cable snaps, cables can be deadly ......
This isn’t a cable
Yay boss gets free upgrade… going back to my noodles
Best part of having a Winch is you can get yourself unstuck. 😉
You should properly mad max it😂😂❤❤
Great video and great mods but PSA, 18:48 - never step over a Winch or a Trailer like that...
Stewart little is absolutely awesome 👍😎
Richard didn't know where the horn was
Or the ignition key. Obviously doesn’t get much use.
Hammond is worth £31 million. Hes just playing at this, he's fortunate enough to do so!
The kenyan bracelet 🇰🇪👌🏽
15:09, Crosley :D
Why would Richard need a winch? To pull the LR out if a ditch in a mall parking lot? 😂
I was thinking the same.
With it looking like that, I'd never want to drive off road ever again
Pls let us know what Richard says when he finally discovers the spoiler, if he ever does 😂
Kenya to the world
Mike uno the rover 45 had a sports compact called the impression s which had a 1.8 turbo k -series but.... the one I have has a k20 in it because there just better

Now he can go climb another dam!
Is that James Mays crosley in the background?
Now who's gonna let RH pull? JC gonna pull out some jokes about it? I wish to see him jaw dropped getting saved.
Really wicked episode. We’d be happy to offer our services for free it pained me to see how it was washed 😢
Volvo 850 Estate rear spoiler fits the rear of a defender
Did anyone saw the fine car in the background 👀 lol
The Volvo V50
Did anyone notice the Crosley cc convertible that James had in Euro Crash behind the defender.
Was that a mighty ducks hat, you a hockey fan lol?
