    Never has a car company so lost its path . It is truly obvious that the leadership at Land Rover have never seen this video.

      Atleast they have not started making ai cars. When they do they will confirm they have trully lost their ways.

      Once all the electronics came in, real Land Rovers vanished. The rot started with the P38 Range Rover. I have a 49, a 57 and a 65; there is nothing on them to go wrong because there are no gadgets on them.

      Just bought a 1966, Series 2A , 88”, 2 days ago. It was still in daily use on a 200 acre cattle ranch in central California. Other than needing a lot of TLC , it’s all original, runs great and is very solid.

    Damned DISGRACE what has been done to Land Rover! They had such awesome vehicles!!! N ow they pander to rich morons with disposable computers on wheels. I was speaking to an Englishman who told me that, when in England, he knew of people with the fancy 'Rovers who bought some kind of spray-on mud to look like they'd been off road. Sickening.

    Land Rover have totally lost the plot. Their stuff is now the same old boring rubbish as all the other car makers-full of pointless,expensive,virtually unrepairable elecshittery,to enable yuppies with more money than brain cells,to climb over kerbs and traverse half inch deep puddles. My Series 2A is a proper Land Rover,unlike the current crap offerings from Land Rover. Wouldn't have a modern one if it was given to me!

      Despite the vastly better 200TDI with Defender, the rot started for me with its loss of galvanised bumpers and body cappings. My now deceased six year old 1990 Defender had rust where my still alive 1956 Series One didn't and still doesn't.

      @@adienowed6366Yes, old stuff breaks but trouble can usually be seen, accessed and fixed reasonably easily. A crack in my S1 brass Serck radiator header was easy to repair with a blowtorch and solder, with the repair then good for 30 years further service so far in a 70 year old part. The modern equivalent plastic radiator starting a leak at a stress point where a hose connects will be a battle getting Araldite or Belzona to adhere, and I really question whether emissions are really responsible for the complete lack of access in today's vehicles. When changing the cam belt in a Disco 3 or 4 is easier by removing the body, something cannot be right. Running day job vehicles from nearly new to say 15 years old has so far slammed on my brakes on getting a Grenadier, discovering it uses BMW engines riddled with notoriously fragile plastic including heat exchangers etc and no clarity has emerged on any Ineos ruggedising having been applied to avoid embrittlement, with breakages likely both in service and more likely when battling to gain access to fix something else. TBH I've run 2 "poor man's" poverty spec G Wagens in the last nearly 25 years, the stupidly sold 2000 GD290 being the gold standard of perfection and my current 2012 "G Military" having been much less reliable mainly due to extra complexity dictated by emissions regulations, but so far its plastics have not given me problems.
