Ive got standard XS seats and find them to be very comfortable for trips to France etc

Although I would like the premium seats if they weren't so expensive Very Happy

I reckon it will be sooner, rather than later, if it's being used for any 'distance' business mileage. I'm absolutely devoted to my Defender but I'm afraid I couldn't live with the standard seats!


I've got the Premium Seats which seem to be ok for now.
Although I went for the all Black one's & expected to get a Cushioned Cubby lid as you do with the Contrast Premium Seats but apparently not. Which I really can't understand??

I've got the premium & they do seem to be ok............
As for the whole driving experience..................that's a completely different matter Neutral
This is going to take some getting used to & that's before I even think about adding the Trailer on the back Exclamation

What have I done Question Big Cry

I also moved from a Porsche ownership (997 C4S + X51) to a Defender 90 last October.

Having re-calibrated my driving style completely, I am now driving and enjoying the Defender more !

Just over exaggerating how different it is really to everything else I've driven.
It's always a shock to the system for me when I try a new car & really a new driving style. I'd only driven it home.
I'm sure I'll be used to it in no time Thumbs Up

This is my 1st & I'm sure the only thing to really improve what I have here would be a V8 version Smile

Erm yes of course I did Rolling Eyes
That's only a drive of a few miles though, takes time to actually get used to something that's all new Smile
