Doug the type of guy to make his only passenger sit in the center seat

"I always buy my cars in the press colors." Is this a Doug Demuro quirk and feature?!

Imagine being the salesman when Doug walks into the dealership! I don't know if I'd hug him or hide behind the desk?

80% of Land Rovers ever made are STILL on the road today - the other 20% made it home!

Doug buys a new zero-miles car, with no discount. 2020 is the weirdest year ever

Doug: "all you see is Suvs these days" Also Doug: "I bought myself a third suv!"

"THISSSSS is a list of all the repairs needed on my new Range Rover" LOL !!!

I like how he talks about the warranty as an essential "feature".

Doug's breaking all his rules lately.... Congratulations btw

Pangea Green. Even the colour is named after something famous for breaking apart.

Doug; The kind of guy who gets excited to talk about car options he cheaped out on.

Doug is the kind of guy who would buy a new Land Rover Defender.

Tomorrow on Hoovies Garage "I bought Doug Demuro's stinger."

Doug the type of guy to wake everyone up to tell them he’s going to bed

"I plan to own it for a loooooong time." Well that didn't age well lol

22:25 “I’m not gonna change this car soon” Doug in 2023: haha e class goes brrrrrr

You bought it cos you like driving the loan cars while its in the shop getting fixed every few weeks

Doug: I think no daily driver should cost more than $40.000 Doug 2 weeks later: buys a new Defender

“Nobody was making boxy SUVs” Toyota 4Runner: am I a joke to you?

well this aged well

A week later: THISSSSS is why I’m selling my Land Rover Defender on Cars and Bids

6:37 The engine cover even has a cupholder to put your drink while you wait for the tow truck! 😄

I'm British, I have an old defender. And a new one as of recently. And the new one is 1000x better than the old one. Space, comfort and off road capabilities are beyond measure.

If I had a dollar for every time he said quirk I'd have enough money for the repair cost of that car

Basically, it’s Doug Defendering his purchase. 😂

The poor little Kia hasn't been there long.

This is why I subscribed to your channel...you're just as quirky as the cars that you feature...good for you and your purchase.

Doug, please keep us updated on the reliability , or lack there of in about a year of ownership. I do hope you have a wonderful and reliable vehicle. I would love this BUT, after 4 Land Rover/Range Rovers I simply got too tired, and felt just too grown up to deal with yet another brand that continuously has managed to break down- each one- at least twice each while away from home. Made me miss appointments, sit in a bad area of NJ waiting for a tow truck, and very tired of hearing the dealerships say, well, it's English, what do you expect. Waiting now on my new Wrangler Rubicon 4xe to come in. All my Wranglers held up well. NONE ever broke down and left me stranded. Defender seems like a work of art, but as my uncle used to say, if it has t-ts or wheels it will eventually let you down. UPDATE: 2 years later, see below.

This is like a video dedicated to his wife justifying his expensive purchase for a daily car lol

Doug the type of guy to name his 3rd channel Even More Doug Demuro

"If you wanna take a vehicle off-road, you take a Land Rover...If you wanna take a vehicle off-road and make it back home, you take a Land Cruiser."

Love this channel discovered it 3 days ago and watch it on lunch and then when I get home until bed , Doug justifying the defender purchase sounds like my cousin justifying his cocaine habit lol, but I get it love the new defender can't wait for the V8 2 door

One week later: Doug: THIIISSSSSSSSS is why I’m selling my new Defender....

TFLCar: "Our new Defender has been broken for 28 out of 30 days we owned it." Dough: "I am planning to keep this Defender for 7 years."

1 year after this video Doug: *I got rid of my new Range Rover Defender, and here’s why!*

Land Rover Defenders, we have owned two, a 2002 110 and a 2011 90 which I used as my daily for work and can say with my hand on my heart they have both been absolutely reliable like a house brick. We still have the 110 which is currently doing what it does best, towing a horse box and currently is at 200030 thousand kilometers. Still has the original battery in it and the only non service repair that has been required was a steering box at 180000 thousand klms. The little 90 racked up 120000 klms really quickly and nothing went wrong, not one thing, added bonus sold it for more than I payed for it. The new Defender is big on my wish list but ridiculously expensive in Australia so will stay on the wish list. If you want my bad Land Rover stories we have also owned two Discoverys but I couldn't type for that long.

Everyone: Doug, are you really going to take that off-road? Doug (driving across his lawn): Yes

I think everyone saw this one coming

Doug is so happy / excited about this bench seat I love it lol

Doug's the kinda guy that would review the salesman before buying the car

Next year: “Here is why my warranty already paid for my land rover defender”

The two happiest days of Doug's life... 1. The day he bought this defender. 2. The day he sells this defender.

“I’m gonna keep it for a long time” lol

I love boxy SUVs too! They are just so cool looking and the interior feels more airy.

Dealer: "Well, that was a quirky customer...".

Doug: I need a luxurious and comfortable car Also Doug: I got cloth seats and a front row bench seat

I've owned a 2006 BMW X5 for the last 7 years as my daily driver. I don't think you'll have a problem keeping this Range Rover. Nice car!

"No one owns a car for 7 years"....I don't think we're in the same world Doug, not at all. Still loved the review, glad you got the car you wanted.

One Month Later: THISSSS is everything wrong with my brand new Land Rover Defender

Can't wait for the "I sold my defender, and got the new Bronco" video.

I am going too keep it till the warranty runs out.....that didnt happen

The reason why land rover makes you choose between the front bench and 3rd row seat is that in some European countries you cannot drive an 8 seater with a regular driver's licence

Doug's Secret Weapon: Warranty extension. "Bring it on!"

Doug: I don't like cars that depreciate a lot Also Doug: I bought a brand new Land Rover for sticker price!

This design is how the newer discoveries should look. The safari windows, the wide swinging tail gate, everything about this is a discovery (pre disco 3)

That middle front seat literally looks like an afterthought and taken from an entirely different vehicle. Nice to have the extra seat but the execution looks ridiculous.

Doug is the kind of guy who makes a youtube video to justify to his wife he spent 73 grand on a new car...

I feel like this whole video is him trying to convincing himself it was a good buy

Please keep us updated. I’ve always been a Toyota person as I do place a high value on reliability. I’m a year or so from being in the market for a LC, Bronco,.. or one of these. Maybe 10K mile ‘updates’! I know I’m not alone. The new Defender looks so damn good.. but many of us are leery.

the depreciation is phenomenal...

Somebody please make custom 20" Steel Wheels for Doug!!

Doug: No one makes boxy SUVs Toyota: Why do you never notice me??!

Most ppl are looking for a 3rd row, but Doug is the kind of person looking for 3rd seat in 1st row. 8:08

I am a retired past owner of a foreign car parts company, and if there is a 4-wheeler I wouldn't buy is a Land Rover... Take your wallet out, and leave it on the dash! Good luck Doug!

Coming soon: Doug: My Warranty Experience with my Land Rover Defender

I bought a 2020 Land Rover defender and here is why: My bank account has 8 figures

You wanted a front middle seat that no one has ever wanted to sit at.😂 It’s only practical for a child, but children are safer in the rear seats.

Clearly, Doug is very happy with himself and the warranty. He will need it! But good for him, he's found his brand then go for it. Congrats on a brand new car that is awesome that he hasn't bought one till this day. I hope it doesn't break down like TFL.

New upload from Doug DeMuro: “Why my original Defender is more reliable than my new Defender”.

I find it hard to believe Doug goes off roading "quite frequently"

I can't work out why that middle seat backrest is so high??? With limited leg space, there's no way anyone would be that tall anyway so it makes no sense to me. Surely same height as the other front seats would be more practical and look wayyy better. Even folded that would give a pretty good centre console. Weird?!

Doug is the type of guy who explains why he bought a 2020 Land Rover Defender in Pangaea Green with Alloy Wheels, 6 cylinder engine, front bench seat and wading depth sensor.

6 months from now: "I bought the cheapest Land Rover Defender in the United States" - Tyler Hoover

Doug recounting his history with Land Rovers transitioning into this one "I'm warrantied up... bring it on!".

The large headrest in the middle seat is an issue. The magic of a middle seat is that you also get the use of all the space in the footwell of the middle seat. The large headrest of the seat eliminates your ability to put a bag or something in that space.

"Because my wife made me." There. Saved you 28 minutes.

"You just look like the kind of person that drives a G-wagon and I don't really want to be associated with that in any way. Now- I should mention I have a G-wagon." LOL

Walks into LR dealership, “I’d like a Doug-spec Defender, please”

Doug,the type of guy to sit on the middle seat while driving

Can't wait to hear a reliability report after owning it for some time.

✌🏾RIP Dougs Stinger. Didn't even make it a whole year.

This was so unexpected and expected at the same time. 😂

Two years later and Doug's Defender has spent 18 months at the dealer service center and 6 months in Doug's garage.

Doug is the kinda guy who review's tons of badass cars and then buys a Kia stinger...

Doug: "I have my defender now" Shows picture of it being towed away at 23:30 LMFAO.

James May would say something along these lines: Defender? That´s just a glorified overpriced Dacia Duster!

Always found it interesting how people are talking about their feelings online. I bought this, I did that, I like this, I did that because, I feel that. I think these people suffer from some "oh look at me how cool I am, what decisions I make, my feelings are so important" syndrome

I’m not paying Land Rover money for cloth seats, but I’m glad you enjoy your car Doug. It’s pretty cool.

A couple days later: *So I got stranded on the side of the road in my Land Rover Defender And Here’s Why*

Famous last words: "Bring it on!" *Land Rover Dealer Service just entered the chat*

U will eventually hate that middle seat. I ripped mine out of my f150. A center console is so user friendly its utilitarian

"...it finally arrived." Yep, my brother ordered one in April, 2020 and took delivery in November. As of last week, he had 2,300 miles on it...not a daily. One feature (and there are many) is a "soft-close" tailgate which I thought was a nice touch.

"No other boxy SUV works for my purposes." Translation: "I'm too Nantucket for anything less than a Land Rover." 😂

“Driving a g wagon makes you.....look like a person who drives a g-wagon” -Doug 2020

If you are English, your terrified by two words..... LAND ROVER!! Love the commentary. Splendid. Marvelous and it cheered me greatly. Thank you.

I feel like the hyperactive 6 year old neighbor kid is telling me about his dads new car.

Doug is the type of guy who ridicules G-Class drivers but owns one himself. I love it hahaha

Doug - kindly do an update on you defender. Love to know how it’s fairing.

Just picked up my 2022 with the same options. Same wheels, same arches, same 3rd bench seat.

Doug: i want a reliable, comfortable, daily driver. Also doug: buys land rover
