HEAVEN!
When I bought my 90 in September 13, within 6hrs of owning it departed for a 2500 mile road trip around Scotland... two weeks of pure Bliss.

Oh yes I would highly recommend, there's also nothing better than camping out of the back of your landy on a remote Scottish corral beach! A Defender... Mans best friend, never judges, trustworthy (most of the time), go anywhere, do anything, looks the business, and mans biggest money pit!!!

If planning a visit to Scotland - Just remember that by next year you may need your passport, a visa, some strange new currency (as yet un-specified), a visitor's driving licence, additional motor insurance cover and they have declared war on the motorist with huge fines if you park in the wrong place, drift into a bus lane or speed ........

Some spectacular scenery though!

Oh yes I simply camped under a tarp (typical army) in a sleeping bag with a fire going... It's great to drive off road or up a track and just stop! Shame England and Wales aren't as passive to this idea, every track here either is private or locked for some reason! A Defender...

Scotland 
Technically you can't drive onto private tracks in Scotland either, unless there is a vehicular public right of way (very unlikely). Of course you can camp there though, as wild camping is allowed.

To be honest though you are unlikely to come a cropper! Glad you had a nice trip, where did you go?

Well that's a fair point... I ventured through:
Galloway Forrest
Glen Coe
Oban
Mull
Tobermory (standard whiskey stop!)
Ardnamurchan
Mallaig
Skye
Torridon
Inverness
Aviemore
Then to Glentress and home

Epic trip to break in the 90 Smile A Defender... Mans best friend, never judges, trustworthy (most of the time), go anywhere, do anything, looks the business, and mans biggest money pit!!!
