  • Wait what? Yes it's true. The time has come to sell both of our beloved modified 4WDs, but before we let the rigs go, Mike and I decided to do a follow up video on the perks of owning these two legendary vehicles.
    We've had both of these vehicles for quite some time and it was a difficult decision to make, but necessary for our purposes.
    Mike already introduced his next project vehicle so what will replace Mr Pugly the Landy? Make sure you're Subscribed and hit the bell icon to find out in the future upload!

    After 5 Landies I just can not get enough of my Jimny. Still a Landy fan, but for what I now need, will never go back !

    The Land Rover discovery 1 is the perfect inbetweener between a Defender and a Jimny with most of the perks of both. It can be as a daily runner, weekender and long distance tourer.

      @HendriMouton  Před 3 lety +2

      They're really capable vehicles but mine was getting too old and the running costs were double Pugly's at the time. Maybe if I could find a neat 300tdi

    Well its sad to see these vehicles go. I really enjoyed seeing how far the Defender has come. I've got a TD5 130 and i love it. But it all depends on what you are getting in replace of it. But at least you got to experience the community. Can't wait to see what the next project is.

      @HendriMouton  Před 3 lety

      It wasn't an easy decision at all and I'll always have a soft spot for a Defender. Hopefully one day I can just add to the collection of vehicles instead of having to sell a project. The next one is a Legend😁

    Tyres, suspension, bumpers and plates and I still do 4x4, just not extreme rocks where I can tear body..

    One constant is change 🤣
    I have my Defender 110 TD5 SW cause of these videos... Had a *gem of a 4x4 Courier 2.5TD which I sold to get into Defender.
    I really miss the get in and go of the Ford... But the space inside the Landy and the atmosphere with the family on a trip cannot be beaten.
    Good luck with your next project, and don't let the Borg accumulate you...

    Hell yea awesome rigs. I absolutely love the Defender, but who deep down doesn't love a Defender.The only way to know if it is worth it to sell them is to know what 4x4 you are planning to buy next. perhaps something more reliable? Hilux Perhaps? Or maybe even a Cruiser? Or a Nissan Patrol since you love those solid axles with coils all the way around?

    • @HendriMouton
      @HendriMouton  Před 3 lety +1

      Very glad I'm fortunte enough to have owned a Defender (variant) and you're spot on with the next rig having solid axles😉

    Aw guys. My two favourite vehicles (I've got a gen3 Jimny and a defender 110). I think you'll regret selling the Jimny for a ranger, the Jimny has the smile factor, so much fun.... But what's replacing your 130? Anyway good luck from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

      Thanks Tony! I'm kicking myself already, just wish we had the safe storage space and funds to keep accumilating the 4WDs that we build up. My next project was a no brainer for me, all will be releaved and explained in the next upload 😁

    My Ranger's engine just died after only 245 000Km's. Apparently because of a failed injector. It was pointed out at the service, and Ford assured me that it was only the battery. They replaced it with no difference in the smoking habits.
    Now they want R105 000 for a new engine. Guess it will be my last Ford in my life....
