I was lucky enough to have secured a 'Heritage' 90 S/W!
Why? The last of nearly 70 years of production, iconic status, desirability, uniqueness, looks great (love the colour!) etc etc... 
Interested in what others have rationalised to order one of these 3 editions! Cheers, Pete  YOLO... You Only Live Once...Last edited by YOLO110 on 1st May 2015 7:42am. Edited 3 times in total |

Plastic grill is a disappointed (but can be addressed), putting this aside I really love the way the Heritage edition looks. I'd been planning to buy a 90 this year anyway, so why not buy this one. Yes, it's a bit more money, but I could see myself keeping it for 20 years. Nick

Because they stopped doing the 'Black Pack'! So I ended up ordering an Adventure 110!

Well, I wanted (and still do) a series 2 to compliment my 110, however as the 110 is being used and abused every day(and it's my keeper, my mate on wheels) a vehicle was required. As the rest of the houshold drive modern boxes and the remaining Land Rover range of cars not really appealing, I decided on a 90. So the joy when the heritage came along. It's my modern series 2 until such time it can be joined by a real version. Now I only have to work on Mrs N, three landy's may be a push, best buy some flowers

because I wanted a one of the last ones and my dealer had one allocated which he let me have. Could have sold it 50 times easily he said. Luckily I was the first to talk to him about 1, but it had to be a 90SW

This is interesting!
Given that there are 400 allocated to the UK, I winder how many of those 'new' owners are on here! So far only 6!
I guess the 90's are more popular than the 110's in the UK? In Oz, it is the other way around! (or upside-down ) YOLO... You Only Live Once... |

Because it's my last chance. A car like the Defender will never come around again, so I might as well get one of the Heritage ones because it's an excellent last hurrah.

I've had a 2003 nine seater xs , and ordered a 110 adventure in January ,I thought I might as well go for phoenix orange as its a unique colour for the defender but I will resever judgement on which one to keep until after I've had both for a couple of weeks(the kids love the 9 seats but I would like one that has a heater that gets warm within 10 mins and does over 70)!
Enjoying all the posts Jason |

I have never been very much into or against the defender but really liked when I saw the celebration series at the Geneva Autosalon. As I have been able to secure myself one of the few ABs I had to go for it - and now I am very much looking forward to it and so is the entire family. Not sure when the cars will arrive in Switzerland though.
