Hi Supacat,

From order to delivery, will be around 14 months. I think it has extended now.

Yep, will need some proper clothing, think the major problem is wet feet.

I VERY>........ nearly bought a Nomad last year, BUT then remembered in years gone by driving to Otterburn, Brecon, salisbury with no doors, windscreen, body work, set off in normal attire, Then donned goggles, shemagh, helmet, gore tex bivi bag, then doss bag, as it got progressively wet, colder and the novelty wore off very quick.....


I'm guessing you have never really been into motor cycles or sailing either?

Enjoyment certainly is improved if you dress appropriately

Nope, Never been into Sailing, Been into Motorbikes off road Enduro, But i've never sat at 70 for Hours on end in the depths of winter on a Bike, Looking at that its got a windscreen, doors and protection from the elements, admittedly your well dressed and also immaculately clean, Testing these things, stripped down to bare essentials to the extreme in the UK climate off road with full Gore tex noddy suit no matter what clothing you have on if its wet, its fun for the first 20 mins, the rest of the day becomes a chore,

There is absolutely no doubt about the quality of these vehicles though, the engineering and the quality of the components used is top notch, in a more temperate climate i'd have had one, the waiting list when i looked was 2 years, so they've gotten on top of production, or demand has slowed, I've got a few exotic vehicles and the prices of certain vehicles has softened considerably. I doubt you will loose money on these though as there arent enough on the market. DEFENDER XS CSW 08 TONGA GREEN
