Land Rover 110 Defender Off Road Green Laning Mud and Fun

[farmingdude]

Great video :D I have to go out at some point with our Rangey :)

[mcfrits4x4]

nice video

can your greenlaning only does whitout a landrover

[aureliocertified]

How much fuel does that truck spend??

[SamTheSuave]

@aureliocertified They get about 30 miles per gallon

[elitecssplayer]

what year is that landrover and what do they cost?

[SamTheSuave]

@elitecssplayer That one was a 1986, but with a newer engine. Here in the UK one like that would run you between £2,500 and £3,000. You can pay anywhere up to £30k for a brand new one though.

[elitecssplayer]

@SamTheSuave : Thank you very much!

[gunbojason]

Nice video and i heard landrover is going to stop producing defenders for private use and they will produce them for professional use only is that true? If it is private use defenders will gain value

[SamTheSuave]

@gunbojason Not sure mate, it might be true as the Defender is due for replacement soon. You're right, if they do stop producing them then it will probably boost our values a bit.

[CochiTravels]

My God UK is good for greenlaning. Here in Italy if you dare to go in roads like these you'll get a fine. My landy is so sad! <3

[MrSuperdude98]

you have very good taste in cars and music

[MrSuperdude98]

i abbsolutly love land rovers

[stumpythetreerat]

where abouts in kent are you? those lanes looked good

[SamTheSuave]

@stumpythetreerat A few miles south of Canterbury. They are extremely muddy at the moment, they have been abused by the Suzuki gang, and the Kent Police have put up a sign saying that the use of the byway is being monitored etc. Probably not long until they are all closed :(

[stumpythetreerat]

@SamTheSuave thats just like the ones here i live in east sussex alot of the our being close down or being relayed with hard core what size lift kit is on your landy?

[SamTheSuave]

@stumpythetreerat It's a 2" heavy duty lift, so when unloaded the Landy used to be about three or four inches higher than standard. Don't have it any more though, check my latest uploads to see what I'm driving now :)

[stumpythetreerat]

@SamTheSuave i will do im putting some up soon so keep an eye out!

[SamTheSuave]

I recently re-drove this lane, and it has CHANGED! It's much, much better now - very deep mud and ruts, huge bombholes seem to have evolved from nowhere... awesome!

[pyroman675]

@SamTheSuave oh sorry the differential

[pyroman675]

i think the transmission sit to low. same wit the front

[Routeres94]

What's the name of te music?

[SamTheSuave]

@Routeres94 Bohemian Like You by The Dandy Warhols

[Routeres94]

@SamTheSuave Thanks!

[mynottwst]

do you have a susp lift? WHat size tyres

[SamTheSuave]

@mynottwst Yeah, it has a 2" heavy duty lift on it, which is more like 3-4" when unloaded. The tyres are 235/85 R16 Insa Turbo Sahara.

Cheers

Very well shot..great defender. Looking at getting my first soon... trying to decide between the 90 and 110..Also finding that TD5's hold their value well. Rick

[SamTheSuave]

@rickjbradbury Thanks. Yep, Defenders in general hold their value well. If you need the extra space for people or things, the 110 is very nice, you can get a lot more in them than a 90. However the 90 has it's advantages off the road - greater departure angle and ramp break over, however there are few situations in reality that a 110 will struggle with.

[Solihull88]

Very nice video and nice Landy!

[Stargatelite]

what was the song? nice video

[ZacDaMan72]

cool song

[timzp]

Nice Landy mate and a brilliant video. It does the car justice. Good job

[SamTheSuave]

Thanks. I'll be uploading some more videos in the next few weeks; I'm going to be building another weekend off-road 110, and fitting a TDi to it.

[timzp]

@SamTheSuave I am looking forward to more vids from you. Please check out my Defender vids when you get the time. Warmest wishes.

[taylormadejoe]

Great video mate, I'm 16 (17 by the end of the month) I recently bought a Rutland red 300Tdi 90. Should be able to upload some videos once I pass my test and start green laning!

[SamTheSuave]

Cool, I'll look out for them. I recently got a new 110 so I'll have videos of that up pretty soon.

[SuperRudy94]

lovely how much did you paY in the end?

[SamTheSuave]

About £1,800, I sold it last weekend for £2,600 :)

[SuperRudy94]

@SamTheSuave OMG SOO CHEAP!!!!  how old was it? only 16 but I'm getting one as soon as i pass my test :D

[SamTheSuave]

It was quite an old one, 1987 I think, but that doesn't really matter on a Land Rover, as they're all so similar. They're fantastic first cars in my opinion, makes you stand out from all of your mates in their Saxos and 106's. I've got a different 110 now, I'll be putting a video of it up in the next few weeks. :)

[landrovertractorboat]

Seen this on ebay mate , it was nice dad was tempted to put a bid on it but we already have 3 landies lol

[SamTheSuave]

Haha yeah, I got a good price for it in the end, was well chuffed. I'm picking up my next one tomorrow, a 110 3.9 V8 on LPG :D

[landrovertractorboat]

Nice one mate, very hard to find now orignal V8s Cant wait for a vid of that one.

[SamTheSuave]

Yeah I'll get one up as soon as I can. It sounds like an absolute beast, straight through exhaust :) Can't wait to pick it up...

[landrovertractorboat]

Nice one. Bet it does sound nice

[johnsteele23]

lifted suspension?

[SamTheSuave]

Yeah 2" Bearmach lift kit, well spotted mate :)

[ron177188]

i love it looks like fun :P

[TDV6GS]

fANTASTIC MATE. NICE 110!

[BushmanProductionsAU]

Really well done mate.. Great to see someone's taken the effort to make a proper video. Your truck looks in pretty good nick too!

[landrovertractorboat]

Have you sold your other blue 110 then mate. Great vid will have to come out laning

[SamTheSuave]

Not sold it, blown the head lol :( Gonna put a 200tdi in it when I have the cash :D
