2015 Defender 110 Puma 2.2 XS CSW Barolo Black

2015 Changes

Hi Guys
Having read up and seen a few posts on here i have seen that the new MY2015 has the DSC and that the roof lining is now dark grey, also the option to now spec the Black or Silver Packs

Are there any other enhancements or changes to the vehicles?

The local dealer says that they are just coming through and that they are waiting for new brochures, really helpful!

Having read a few posts i see that the cars are definitely out some of you guys have them.

Would anyone care to share if there are any other changes, is that all they have done? seems strange for a year change to have no other changes? Or do you think they are holding off for a final run off production run?

Thanks Jomara

I had seen that but waste sure if it was accurate as there was no picture of the Dash with the new DSC button etc?

Have had a number of FFRR's and each time there was a MY year change they always had a few changes and you can always tell the difference in drive etc

I guess the Defender is a different beast altogether

Love the look of your beast, nice and clean!

Thanks, I've spent a bit of time and money on it as it's the last defender I'll buy new(ish).

Big change from FFRR to a Defender

I'm sure you'll enjoy it, my brother in law has had a stream of Vogues and Autobiographies over the years and still spend more time running around in old Discos and Defenders!!

Land Rover have been really quite bad with the marketing if the Defender as I had a 2012 model before moving to the 2014 and both times the dealer didn't have printed brochures.

The last major change in the Defender was to 2.2 puma engine in 2012 the latest change is the addition of DSC but most other changes have been cosmetic or minor mechanical tweaks.

Best thing to do is have a look out for a dealer close by with a current demo model, most times it will be an XS spec and in a nice colour, I have attached an interior shot from a car sitting on Taggarts forecourt which is definitely 2015 spec as I was all over it like a rash

Ah that's better!

Going to pop down to the dealer on Saturday

I've currently got a 1998 300tdi that I've been running for about a year now and yep I agree I have probably spent more time playing and driving the defender than my Range Rover

It's old battered and runs on a mix of diesel and veg oil, it's smells and smokes, the steering shakes above 50 but boy is it fun

Thats the charm, I had a Series 3 which we trialled and raced, it was great fun out on the road with its SAT tyres, wayward steering and 50/50 brakes!!!

I still have my rattly Td5 and my Bowler Tomcat tucked away in the back of the warehouse, my wife thinks I'm going to get rid of them

Our friends love it, when we go anywhere together we take my 110 and their twins (our god monsters!!) fall asleep after about 10 minutes jiggling about in the seats in the boot!!
