Doug is the kind of guy to have 4 million subscribers, a Ford GT, Carrera GT, a successful car selling website, but only felt famous when driving his brand new defender lol

Doug is the kind of guy to talk about all the issues with his car and then tell you its auction is live with no reserve

Doug is a brave man, riding fearlessly on thin ice the whole time with regards to mentioning the wife’s driving capabilities…

Doug is the type of guy to charge himself a seller's fee on the website he owns.

Guy is the type of Doug to replace a new car with a newly used car

Honestly, the fact that Doug created Cars and Bids so he can showcase and sell vehicles is pure GENIUS.

I really love your complete honesty with the info of your own vehicle. I was really expecting you would talk up the vehicle to get it sold. Great job!

“Slow up and speed down” haha we love you Doug. Front bench/middle seats are a feature that is so underrated.

Doug is the type of guy to own a carrera gt, but praise the land rover for making him feel like a celebrity

I love the transparency from Doug all the time

Wow, if only all used car salespeople were as honest and forthright as you, Doug. Always love your videos, thank you.

Gotta love all the back stories Doug brings with his cars.

Doug is the kind of guy who owns a car which can slow up and speed down automatically.

Doug’s the type of guy to say things like: “It’s just too big for my wife.”

Doug, i have been watching your channel for years, and i wanted to say thanks for all the videos. You are the first channel i check on KZfaq and have learn a lot and laughed a bunch. I wish you all the best and congratulations on getting the Porsche.

Doug is the type of guy to sell his Defender on his selling website and bid on his own vehicle that he is selling just to buy it back and make a video about buying a Defender from himself and talk about all the interesting quirks and features and interview himself as the buyer and seller and how great of a friendship they have and promise to stay in touch throughout the incoming years until its time to sell it again

Doug is the type of guy saying he is not usually the cool guy, being the cool guy he is

Loved the cameo on Throttle House my man. Collaboration is so much more fun than competition.

O.M.G. I LOVE that you have the front-center jump seat and your doggo loves it!!!!!

Great honest review of the Defender. Other then the sun roof issues, to know it’s been such a reliable and excellent vehicle, over all of that diverse terrain and 43,000 miles, / 2.5 years, is a good thing. The huge breadth of capability with new Defender, is most definitely a very strong selling point regarding the vehicle. Pity that Doug isn’t keeping it, and running it up to 100,000 miles. If after 100,000 miles, there had been no problems, that would certainly help to promote a message that LR vehicles have good reliability. I’m sure Doug will get another Defender in the future. Maybe 130 model ? Many more variants of Defender to get released over coming years. I’m sure the extra driver assist technology features that Doug wants, will become available on Defender, in the future.

I can’t believe Doug out grew this car so quickly. I’m pretty sure he’s gonna get a bentayga at some point.

"It can slow up and speed down" This is unforgivable, incomprehensible, horrific, absolutely abhorrent, a huge issue and I cannot ever find it in myself to forgive you. Things will never be the same Douglas.

Doug is the kind of guy that tells his wife not to worry, it's not too big

Love how you're so honest with everything even with you trying to sell it if I ever win the lottery I know the first place I'm going to go looking for to buy a newest to me car

Doug’s the kind of guy with 9 cars and says he needs to simplify his life. Hat tip to you! Glws!

Doug is the type of guy who buys a car and then sells it 😂

Doug is the kind of guy to say he’s not cool, but has a whole fan base that openly call him daddy Doug lol. Can’t get much cooler than that.

He seems like a pretty laid back fun type of guy with an awesome dream job. His videos are really interesting

Doug is the type of guy to break into your car to test the climate control

Doug driving from San Diego to Nantucket is about the same distance as driving from U.K. to Iraq 😂

I’m so glad you got to enjoy it. The best of luck to it’s next owner. Thanks for the video.

I absolutely love my 2023 Defender X-Dynamic! Zero issues and I also drive quite a bit. I metal speaker grates are awful though and have terrible sound quality/vibration depending on a songs frequency. It’s been 2.5 months and replacement speakers are still on back order. I pray I never have any issues with it as I plan to keep mine for the long haul!

Doug, i watch you for the past 4-5 years and this is the first time im comenting a video, please dont ever ever again say that you are not cool, you are one of the coolest guys i know. I wish i can meet you one day and discuss cars with you. ❤️😃

Doug is the kind of guy who sets a car auction site so he can sell his cars... And goes way better than expected!

Nice to hear honesty when selling, told you all the flaws with no excuses.

My dad used to have a 2002 Land Rover Discovery when I was a kid. He had the same exact problem with the windshield, where since it was kinda upright, and also had the heating element going through it, he drove around with a massive crack in it for ages before he got it replaced.

That was a short 10 years.

When Doug the man himself lists one of he’s cars you already know it’s going up with no reserve😂

From what I understand, all collision repair places regardless of brand, are backed up with hard-to-find parts. A friends kid hit a curb in with a chevy SUV during a snow storm and had minor body damage and she called about a dozen collision repair places, the quickest she could get it in for an ESTIMATE was two weeks, with additional 6-8 weeks for repairs to be completed. The worst she found was a place that would not be able to start work on the SUV for six months. Also, my dads friend got T-boned back in mid-November during a storm (everyones ok) but because parts were hard to come by (for a normal Ford/Chevy/Toyota/Honda whatever normal small SUV they had) it took them until the end of February to get their car back, they'd been driving a rental for 3-months.

My co-workers 2022 Ford Bronco Sport is also at a body shop looking for parts for 2 months now. It's not just less supported cars.

Doug is the kind of guy whose car "slows up and speeds down" 05:13

Biggest selling point isn’t that Doug owned it - it’s that noodle rode in it.

Watchin Doug is like watchin motor trend from 15-30 yrs ago....I dig it.

truly a historical icon! Famously Crashed by the celebrity Mrs. DeMuro! I suspect that next will probably not be a Lincoln Blackwood or an LM002 due to size constraint lol

All these years of watching car content, Harry's garage and Doug demuro feel like the classics . I always imagine Doug being in a world premiere show like top gear

40k miles is 20k past range rover's life expectancy, very impressed with Doug car care skills

Doug is the kind of guy to break into your Not So New land rover defender to see if you have the center seat option

My 04 Taco has the same upright windshield problem, rocks just tend to throw themselves right at it! Thanks Doug love your channel keep up the great videos!

doug is the type of guy to go through 3 land rovers and keep the oldest one

Awesome morning when I don't have to work, get my dog in my lap, a hot cup of joe and a new Doug video.

That parts demand issue Doug mentioned is the reason why I didn’t get my broken tail light fixed on my 2021 RR Sport P525 for nearly 7 months the parts shortage for Land Rover is ridiculous

Love the honesty. Doug: Never change. You rock.

Doug's Land Rover is special because it has one of the hardest-to-find options on the market: All of its doors.

doug is the type of guy to sell a land rover defender

I owned the 2021 4Runner TRD Pro Lunar Rock. Wife did same thing but went from the front fender to the back bumper on a concrete (yellow) barrier in a drive through. It took 6 months to get two door panels and I never got the wheel well plastic inserts. So, I sold it in July of last year (10 months post accident) still missing parts, 20k miles, for 12k more than I bought it. Still feels like a win

The compressor is the single best feature. I off-road my Jeep whenever I can, and the one thing I wish it had was a built-in compressor. I always have to remember to bring my air-down tool and portable electric pump with a DC lighter plug. It's not the end of the world, but the built-in system on the Defender is awesome.

Ah, the move that makes Hoovie proud

The one video everybody saw coming 😂

I don't blame you for changing your mind about the Defender. I like these alot but there are some small things that I don't care for and knowing they are having part shortages on simple body panels would definitely have me a bit anxious. Also, I think the Mrs scraped the pole on purpose to make a point 😂🤷🏾

The photo of you with your dog and the defender on the beach is awesome!

I remember you said you were keeping it for a long time 😂

Is it weird that geek out from Dougs picture of the Defender in front of the "Welcome to Texas" sign? Because I live in that area and I think that its cool he drove through my hometown? xD

I am happy for you for having so few quality challenges with it. I would believe it’s best to get rid of it as long as its running again.

Looks like Doug's giving out hearts today. Appreciate all you do for us enthusiasts, Doug!

Doug is the type of guy who tries to sell you and Land Rover but he actually tells you what's wrong with it

21:41 that ain't the first time doug's said that

He said “slow up and speed down” (5:12) lol. Good luck with the auction, Doug!

You gotta appreciate Doug's honesty about the crash and everything.

Doug is the kind of guy who creates a whole car bidding company to sell his land rover

Doug is the kind of guy to make multiple reviews of his car.

This was such a uniquely honest and funny review

THIS, was the most honest car sale pitch anyone will ever witness forever.

Doug is the type of guy that gets me to watch every video from start to checkered flag.

Is the 100K Extended Warranty transferable to new owner?

Doug is the type of guy that would turn his amazing car review channel into a Carsandbids ad channel.

Your videos are always entertaining. I find a few funny moments in this video, specifically you're forgetting a few more reliability issues mentioned in your first couple of videos on your Defender. Just like my brother. He had a Range Rover. Everything broke on it. Yet ask him 10 years later about it, and he acts like it was the most reliable vehicle he ever owned. Then he buys another one a few months ago, and aside from a "few" electrical gremlins, he finds it once again, reliable. You mentioned in earlier videos that the check engine light came on, more than one time. Also, the sunroof broke, not once but twice if I remember correctly. There was something else, but who's counting, it's a Land Rover product. The windshield. REALLY!. Full glass insurance covers it. However, if someone buys it already broken , getting insurance to pay is unlikely once the new owner takes it, and if paying out of pocket, well, lets just say it isn't going to be cheap. AND, all that said, I want one. I want to go right out next week and check out ordering a Defender. Why?, because Doug said it was just a blast to own and I freaken love these things. I had 2 Land Rovers and 1 Range Rover and they were just awful. The Range Rover Evoque left me stranded 3 times. I loved it. SO, just like a woman you might marry just for the good sex and nothing else, once she's gone you say, why oh why did I divorce her. Forgetting what a horror show she really was. Ya, on to another Land Rover. Why am I doing this to myself again Doug?. Why?.

I remember your video i will keep my defender for at least 7 years.

I hope the new owner gets some quirky gift like Doug signing it or a note from Doug.

Good luck! Very reasonable spec!

I’m an estimator at a body shop, and, currently in our shop, we have a 2021 Range Rover Sport that was in a collision. After tear down, we found out it needed a radiator support. I ordered it from Land Rover in September. It showed up two weeks ago. We shudder in the office whenever a new Land Rover pulls up. I feel your pain!

Pretty cool that it has all of its doors!

I would love a Lexus GX review. Might make your defender feel more modern

Heard the same elsewhere about the windshield. It's a rock magnet. And the parts availability issue makes sense. It's comments like this that LR should pay attention to. But congrats to them on the overall reliability of a first year vehicle.

Nice Coronado Bridge setting for your commentary!

Doug is the kind of guy who doesn't hide his wife's mistakes.

Doug "I don't plan on selling my Defender" DeMuro.

Doug is the type of guy to be entirely honest about all of his experiences

I feel you Doug...My defender was my 5th Land Rover and dream car. I ordered a true base offroader. I got t-boned by a macan and waited 14 months for parts...I will never sell mine. It is running and I got the 4 cyl with only offroad upgrades and the options I have are not available anymore. I will ride until it is dead. I understand your stance but truly love my tasmin blue with a white roof and steelies. I am in for at least 100k miles and willing to suffer the pain...that is what happens when you love all kinds of cars. I enjoy your reviews and videos. Keep it up!

Doug is the type of guy to slow up and speed down

If you’re also wondering why Doug’s videos lately have published one hour earlier: I just found out that daylight savings time has already started in the US. Here in Germany we’re still having regular winter time… That’s why it came put at 5 o‘ clock today…

lmao the pic of you with one wheel off the ground in the defender. Doug really be the nice guy

What you're describing is exactly what it was like with my i3! I leased it brand new back in 2014 when it first became available in North America. Everyone was taking pictures and asking me about it.. I was like, wow, that's really cool but also really sad that my car gets way more attention than I ever have lol and then I got into a minor accident, and it took FOUR MONTHS to get my car fully repaired because there weren't any parts available. They did offer me a rental car during that time, so I wasn't without a car.

"I just wish it wasn't too big for my wife" greatest closer to a KZfaq video

Just hope he doesnt sell the GT any time soon

Great Video as Always Doug! Haha Facts! I drove one of these for 2 days and had 2 cracks in the windshield in Germany. 😂 haha and the end was the best *i wish it wasn't too big for my wife* saw that little laugh there Doug 😂

Doug has the smoothest handwork in the entire automotive journalism industry. He could sell me a car with just his pointer finger alone.

That is a nice looking Rover.

Doug is the kind of guy to wear a blue Audi RS2 t-shirt after selling the RS2 😀

I love how Doug excludes the “New” Kia Stinger in the flip flop between Mercedes and Land Rover

jaguar Land Rover reliability moment. excited for whats next doug! so happy for your success!
