The new model of Land Rover Defender’s recognizably a descendant of all-terrain vehicles that were manufactured in 1947…the stout riveted body’s still assembled in Birmingham. The Defender is equipped with a 2.4-litres turbo diesel engine plus a Getrag 6-speed manual transmission, the recent Land Rover’s in fact rather well-mannered with a top speed limited @ 82mph, the acceleration from 0 to 60mph is a relaxed 14.7sec. If you drive very gently, you’ll manage to pull out a laudable 27.7mpg from this 2-ton monster; however that plummets when the car’s pushed to further extent.
