Presume this is your first ever Defender?
It is.
The other day, 10 mins into a walk in some woods, someone came up to me and asked how I liked the Defender. I clearly looked confused and ... |

I don't know how I've managed it, but my Defender is absolutely problem-free (so far). I'm hyper-critical about rattles and squeeks, but not a thing.
I do have that 1.0 thing in the Eco screen, bu ... |

Does adaptive cruise use cameras? I thought it was just radar.
And can the Defender switch between adaptive and standard cruise? I would've gone for the SE if that was the case. The adaptive cru ... |

It's every day. Every time I go out in the car, I get people asking about it, pointing, staring.
Yesterday as I was filling the tank, a Tesco delivery driver asked me questions the entire time. A ... |

Got a hit from a very small pepple, cracked right in my eye line. 😡
Is a pepple a really small pebble? |

I wouldn’t call this a modification, more of an accessory, but there doesn’t seem to be an area of this forum for accessories.

Good video? Did we watch the same one?
That was the ramblings of a man who just likes the sound of his own voice, not helpful advice. And the dashcam was badly positioned - it needs to be at a pa ... |

I couldn’t work out what this option was in the Navigation menu. A bit of Googling and it’s apparently something to do with Mecca.
Why the hell is this an option in my car?? I couldn’t give ... |

My car has stopped doing it now. I’ve driven 240 miles and I noticed on my last journey that it was coasting as normal and was no longer “pumping” when in cruise.
I guess now the battery is ... |
