tears of joy when it comes out ,, an absolute triumph for what British Engineering used to be able to produce until accountants got in and destroyed that inventive nature , Land Rover led the way in off road vehicles ,, hats of to the forefathers :-)

Next it will be on eBay listed as "One careful lady owner only used it to go to church on Sundays."

Was starting to ingest a little water... White smoke starting to come out at the end. Awesome video though.

Amazing ... impressive, that is why I can't get rid of that mighty truck all my life through. Thanks for sharing.

Take a bow driver, absolutely incredible....I love those old Defenders.

Very impressive, wouldn't want to be the 1 to have to clean it though, a few weeks back i got myself in a tricky situation, drove into a large body of water, gentle descent to about 2 ft deep, then a 1.5 foot shelf, water lapping over top of bonnet (water at this point was 3.5 foot high), the front wheels just dropped, after about 5-10 mins finally got it out, difflocked and reverse, Def's are an excellent vehicles, well built, true offroader.

Absolutely awesome ... a great lesson in perseverance !

This proves 1 thing about land rovers they all ways get there eventually. Good job

This is *REASON* why i love land rover products

the defenders are amazing

if you try hard enough a landrover can do anything

Props to the driver. I'm a Jeep Wrangler fan myself but I would love to see a stock one do this. Snorkel allowed.

i love my Land Rover 90!!!

It was the cooling fan of the engine that acted like a propeller!

Well I have to say I really did think that was a tow out job! Well done both driver and Landie!!

Bet the new defender would just sink and fail miserably

Very nice job by the driver!

I was actually clapping when he pulled out of there haha, props bud!

Skinny tires helped alot but what a effort

Wow! I hate mud but that was awesome, you won't find me near anything like that. What a cleanup job that was, I am sure. Change the oil in the diffs at the minimum and prolly the transmission, transfer case and possibly the motor too!

It has; it's n it'll always be, I love defender

That's why I love these cars!

Mama didn't raise no quitter!

Oh and for those who don't think you might need to change out the oils I can tell you that when the hot transmission or differential hits the cool water the water will get pulled in right past the seals, I have seen it. I am open to correction on this but I believe it to be true.

You're correct. Especially for any length of time, it'll seep in anyway. Having good quality seals is a must, but even then it'll come in. Vehicles are not designed for water. I work at a place that deals with amphibious vehicles. The mechanic that works with them, is constantly rebuilding the diffs that are immersed. The bearings just get slaughtered from water. The diff housings have accommodation for 2 seals, and he's reversed them, still water. Water is bad.

That was great! Love the wet pants and mud pouring out at the end.

i work on landrovers in oz and now have a new found respect for defenders

Absolutely legend mate, well done! Always best to try and get yourself out if you can and that was determination and a half!!

gotta get me another Defender

No way could he have done that without the 4 Spot lights on the roof!

thats why we own Land rovers not auto box junk

Try that in a Cayenne.

So it's pretty safe to say that this England's version of a day playing around in the mud hole, right? Unless this is taking place somewhere else.

haha great stuff nice to see someone not jumping for the tow rope when they get stuck :) nice one mate love it

Well done I didnot think that was possible

Axle breathers are there to prevent this. Routed properly they'll be above the waterline and will allow the expansion/contraction of air rather than pulling water through the seals.

Jose, I would argue that's what they are made for.

Thats a good car!

Incrivel!! Possas... Tou sem palavras. Puramnt incrivel. Bom trblho! 👍 E bom carro. Mas d certeza o motor ficou com alguns danos.

very well done and are they stock tyres aswell if so even better

This stubborn driver, and his stubborn Land Rover could go to Mars and back!

When he opened the door, all the mud must've flowed into the cabin.

Or a patrol, or a landcruiser. Defenders aren't popular in Australia for a reason. That reason is "allowable oil weep". We call them leaks over here.

That is incredible!

woww!!! grrttt engine power.. loved the grrmm grmm sound of it!!

That's how they got their rep!

god those diesels sound great!

Im having difficulty working out why you would want to change your transmision oil after doing this? Both boxes and axels are sealed other than breather pipes so unless the breather pipes are removed the only thing thats going to be in there is the oil you turned up with. Then you assume that he will illegaly drive home with filthy windows, lights etc which is just wrong. On what are you basing this statment?

i want a land rover now ,,,,

llantas stock y como los grandes, quisiera ver a un X5 haciendo esto haha Grande Land Rover!

Well, it certainly is good tenacity being exercised right through to the end, as it certainly pays toendure.

I am afraid it just winds me up to see a machine being abused like that. Bet he didn't change his transmission oils before he drove home wouldn't be surprised if his brakes and glass were cleaned. Yes the Defender did well to get out. Thing is , it's his and he can do what he likes with it.

that was so well done

Where is this - and would you take a Disco 4 there?

It's not a Defender. Reg Date 1986.... Defender relates basically to the new models with the Tdi engines, introduced for the 1990 Model year, in late 1989, for G registrations in the UK. Also, why would anyone opt to sit in that slurry for so long, as it seeps into the axles and transmission cases (yes, I know it has extended breathers as standard) As the hot items are immersed in cold water, they suck in the water.....

What was it I read somewhere about a Landie having only a 500 mm wading depth????????

Well thats new, I didnt know Land Rover also made shiny boats and all!

How's that for guts and determination! Well done!

Wait, is this just a bunch of people driving around in the mud?

get some 35 inch tyres on it mate your diffs were catching on the mud but hay well done

The Paradise City! Lucky Men!

@rockhaloschool my guess would be Insa Turbo's.. no stock tyres :p

Gotta Love Landys :)

landrover heaven !

You don't need adverts to sell a Landy, just link them this video

Hi, where is this please? Is it Tong?

What a beast man...

Now I want to see a foxhound and jltv on the same course ;)

Yes actually. Heaps fun! But I live in Australia, and it's not demonized.

well done lads!!

I'll buy one.

That is breather or no breather, extending the breathers does help but it is no guarantee.

The car will go anywhere - if it has the tyres

welldone...

Gotta luv the landy!

Yes!... 4x4xfar! 👍

Vidio yang bagus

Yes, yes it is!

I wouldn't like to do that to mine too much work sorting it out after!

wow!!!!

What a beast

Fuck*** unbelievable 😅👌👏🏾🏌🏼‍♂️

Nice!

Mouldsworth Quarry, Stable Lane,Mouldsworth, Cheshire Post code CH3 8AN.

Never give up!!!!

Peanuts 2105 this place is in Cheshire an I take my discovery 3 there so it ain't to bad just be careful.

nice 1 !!

CRAZIEST GUY I HAVE EVER SEEN...HAHA

Yep, it's a Landy!

is land rover defender stronger than land cruiser by toyota?

Why is the passenger putting his legs on the dash?...why are you there is you don't want to get dirty?

It's not stuck if it's moving :)

I’ll guarantee you won’t be doing that with the new defender , bits if plastic would be flying off everywhere 😁

😀😀😀😀😀

We all knew he would get out and not give up

nice dude!!!

This is a bloody submarine haha lol

poor defender

C reg 300 ?

the defender is ok just a bad chioce of driver and insa turbo tyres may have well used slicks and a ten year old kid
