Make it real
A chap in the nearest village has a new 110 Defender. And a new house, with a new driveway. Not a hair out of place kind of pad. Iโ€™m tempted to sneak in under cover of darkness and put a few drops of oil under the engine bay. That would make it an authentic ownership experience ๐Ÿ˜‚

I can't see the Defender lasting long in a household like that! But not sure whether it'll be oil leaks or rust that gets it first. Laughing James

I expect the Electronics or engine emission systems will fail long before it rusts or even leaks, chances are its on finance and will go back to JLR at 36 months anyway DEFENDER 90 TDCI XS,

I hope everyone is well and your land rovers make you happy

I suspect the chap works for JLR, so it will be into the used car pool in no time and heโ€™ll have a fresh one.

Better to be negative than positive Whistle Tell someone you love them today because life is short.
But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing...
