Won’t be to long before your showing us the 100k KZfaq plaque. Cos you definitely deserve it.👍

As a country bumpkin I can confirm that no farmers drive land rovers, they all drive Japanese pickup trucks of some sort. And I like how you very diplomatically called them frugal! You definitely have a point there.

Wow Matt looks like your getting noticed and rightfully so, Well done your doing it well.

More grab handles than an OAP shower! Lovely 😂🤣😂🤣👍

This is what you tube needs more of. A matter of fact, realistic, unemotional well thought out presentation of a car. Well done and thank you sir.

As a farmer I liked your comments Re farmers. Very true.

I can not believe that it has taken large dealerships this long to realise your potential. I know for a fact that if I was a director/owner/ manager of a large dealership I would have contacted you about a year ago begging you to drive and review one of our motors and then simply sat back and watched our sales increase. You will defiantly reach your milestone of 1000k subs by Crimbo mate.👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌

I am so excited to watch this video. Did not expect it!

You are the new Jeremy Clarkson of funny analogies 👍🏼

I’ve owned Land Rovers of various models including several Range Rovers fo nearly 30 years and I agree with you, I think it looks great and Land Rover has got it spot on. I also think that given how rounded and in my opinion non-descript the latest Discovery is, I think traditional Discovery buyers will turn to buying a Defender in a heartbeat (no pun intended with your Aidensfield section)

Great review. I really like this guy’s tone and delivery. Feels like you’re just riding along and having a chat.

I’m having to endure I’m a celebrity with the Mrs, when it’s over this is going on the tele, 👍thanks

As always the best, no BS reviews on YT. I love the new 90 style over the 110, and I'm not into 4x4, yet I still watched for the dry delivery and spot-on one liners. Yes I agree with some of the other comments about this generations JC ( not the messiah, the other one!!) Keep doing what your doing. Love it.

You and Harry make THE best car review videos. Superb as always.

Balanced and informative and fun....easily the best review so far....!

Always been a defender fan. New one is the right step forward in design and engineering.

The new Defender is a replacement for the old Discovery. The New Discovery has now become more of a soft roader. I've been driving Land Rover and Rangerovers for over 40 years, and as much as I appreciate the old defender, the new Defender is the evolution we've been waiting for. I only hope that there will also be more commercial variants such as a pickup with double cabin. Nice review Matt!

I've had the new 6 cyl SE job 7 months now and it's fantastic and faultless with easy 40 mpg on a run with a light foot. The power is amazing and it's a joy to ride and having had two of the old ones and two disco's I do have a little experience. Fingers crossed for it's reliability and I'm hanging on to my Morgan 4/4 for Sundays.

So happy to see a new video. Love your channel, so so many videos to get through, I'll be sad to run out.

I used to have an old defender, I loved it. I now have a much more practical and affordable to run Disco Sport. I recently got an off road day with the new defender and it is immense. It beats the old car hands down at everything except looks. Even then the looks are growing on me. Well done LR

Next video; should you buy a Bugatti Cheron. Seriously though, saw one of these Defenders in the flesh and they’re massive.

Brilliant review as usual. Beautiful car for sure. Love to get one!

Great video, am a Landrover man owning loads of defenders in past afew sports and now a 4.4tdv8 l322 love you Landrover based videos👍

I personally believe High Peak Autos reviews are the best on KZfaq. Always a pleasure to watch. Full of humour, facts and interesting comments. I'm always looking forward to the next video. Great job Matt. Who agrees with me!

I absolutely love it! ..... It MAY appeal more to the welly brigade if a toned down, 'tec-less version was available and a manual option. Also, unlike the old one, I suspect DIY servicing and repair is out of the question without the correct diagnostic equipment. (not ideal while on safari!) The styling is fantastic!

I was waiting for you to move onto new stuff... love the car

Love this channel, everything explained and great humour can only get better,keep the video's coming my highlight of the week 😎🤗😍

Absolutely love your commentary (1) more grab handles than an OAP shower (2) great looking and no parts from the Alegro bin - timeless and brilliant

I loved the old ones ,in fact i had a 110 V8 petrol and never thought that new ones could come anywhere near. Uhh how wrong i was.They're absolutely stunning cars....can't wait to save enough penny's to buy one....

Hands down my favourite Land Rover, I love the the styling from every angle and I'd have to have mine in the green with a white roof.

Absolutely love your commentary. Keep up the great work 👍

Had my defender for over a year now, no issues so far. But even if there were id still fix it and keep it cause I love it. Worth it.

As always, great review. If only, Land Rover put as much effort into building reliable SUVs as they do on brand image, their products would be even more desirable.

The Fast Lane channel had an interesting experience with their 1st Defender, broken after 160 miles/21 days, replaced, broken now on their 3rd. Nice to see that LR are remaining faithful to their reliability heritage.

Having driven one for 3 hours at the invitation of Land Rover. I agree with most things you say. I am a huge fan of the brand and I was very impressed with the new one. The rear view mirror camera does take a couple of minutes to adjust to but then it becomes the "New Normal". The air suspension really impressed my 17 year old. Like you the 90 would/will be my model of choice but the 110 has the added practicality for dogs, bikes, kids and camping gear. Old Defender owners may not wave at you but on my drive I passed another new 110 and they waved. I think Land Rover nailed it with the spare on the rear door again but maybe they should have put it on the bonnet.

Have a Defender 110 X Dynamic P400e and it is by some distance the best car I’ve ever had. Super capable, super comfortable can’t fault it.

You should go right ahead and buy it!! Oh, wrong channel!! 😂😂

Having ordered the 110X I have watched loads of reviews and got to say this is the best yet 👍🏻

Just got my P300 X Dynamic last week , I could drive it to the ends of the earth! Now the defenders road manners have improved Its like a Swiss army knife and almost the only vehicle you will need .

The styling is spot on, especially the short version

Great content as is your presentation mate .👍

Nice additional camera angles, very nice indeed.

Great video! Probably one of my favourite reviews yet. I've currently got a 2014 110 and absoulutely love it. Was really excited to be a part of the Defender community until I saw the amount of hateful comments people make on forums etc. I wouldn't mind if I saw more suggestions as to what other people would have created, but instead it's just the usual 'Pretender" s**t over and over again. Fingers crossed, people do learn to love it as you suggested.

That's a nice surprise Matt, seeing you with a current model and a really interesting one at that too.

PS I bought a 6 cylinder Defender 90, absolutely amazing car and plastic and rubber throughout. Just introduce a hosepipe into the cabin and victim residue just washes straight out!

More handles than a OAP’s shower 😂 Looks really cool, definitely the 90!

Thank you, beautiful scenery and totally awesome car review videos 😎

You know pal, if I'm after changing my car I will check out your video reviews first. Top notch assessments. Love the video about miserable pessimistic mechanics. Bang on

I like it - it’s not a showy off-roader, I can’t abide those and Land Rover are as guilty as other manufacturers of chasing the Chelsea crowd - so pleased it looks fit for purpose 👌🏻 looks a touch like a Yeti on roids....

Thanks for the review - pretty much aligned with the other reviews. It seems a very capable off roader, but good for a daily driver as well. I took one for a drive, and was pretty impressed. Not having a door handle digging into my leg was most welcome. Optioned up, however, I wouldn’t get much change out of $120,000 in Oz. That money is very hard to justify, but my inner monologue has been really trying hard to though....

Another awesome review, well done Matt

Love this review...very well detailed, funny and enlightening. I agree the design is good looking.

Thanks for a well balanced and honest review. In a world of health and safety restrictions/regulations that protect us from ourselves, Land Rover have done a great job with the sequel to what was a motoring legend. Yes, it is modern and hi-tech with lots of electronic wizardry but no more so than the cab of a Fendt, JCB, MF, JD these days. I feel it is designed and engineered for a generation that has only seen the yellow end of a dip-stick….whilst filling the washer bottle….with latex gloves on.

Yep, would need to be the 3.0 V6 diesel unit for me too. Having tried that 4 cylinder diesel in a test drive of the XF it just can't be compared to the larger V6 particularly in a big machine like the Defender. Interesting to see JLR replacing all of 4cylinder diesels with the 6 cylinder for 2021.

Great critique as usual! And you managed a sunny day!!! 👍🏽 Regards from Miami😎

Always enjoy your videos for the dry wit and the scenery. Excelled yourself on this one; some really breath taking views!

Great video. I love the new defender, the old one is cool but the new one is just better

Nice enough car, but as always, when does the new version of a classic ever improve on its predecessor or match it for that matter... never. This is more similar to the disco in my opinion. Great video as always, Matt.

Another excellent review. Keep'em coming 👍

Another wonderful review 👏🏻

Man City been looking for a.couple.

Styling Q's from a Skoda Yeti. Currently looking at a green yeti, will put steelies on it and black wrap the roof. Think it will look great.

Very enjoyable review, thanks 😊

Well done mate, another great review.

I love the new Defender, and would defo have one if my budget allowed. I do think it is a really cool car. However, for some, it may be too cool. Whereas the old Defender was a basic, rudimentary 4x4, it filled a gap in the market. Whereby it was a robust car with relatively simple mechanics that a lot of owners could fix themselves with a socket set. The new Defender is possibly too sophisticated for it's own good. And will need to be towed to the nearest dealership if it goes wrong, possibly leaving the owner without a car. And if you live in the outer Hebrides, or some other remote area, your trusty old Defender is your lifeline, your link to civilisation. I have no doubts it will sell, but it will now be bought by a different demographic, and will probably become just another "Chelsea tractor" And in the process of trying to drag the car kicking and screaming into the 21st century, I fear that Land Rover have reopened that gap in the market, which almost exclusively belonged to them and their country set customers, who need a basic, uncomplicated, no holds barred 4x4, that you would not be scared of reversing into a tree, or ploughing into a ditch. The traditional Defender owner probably just wants a relatively cheap 4x4, with a speedo and temperature gauge on the dash, and chunky heater controls. Can you imagine a farmer for example, negotiating a touchscreen with muddy or gloved hands to engage low range gears? That is the demographic the original Defender was designed for. And Sadly, this new Defender just won't cut the mustard with the game keepers, estate managers, farmers, engineers, construction workers, or even the armed forces, I think. They probably will look for something else now, which is sad. Because like red phone boxes, it will be just another little piece of Britain that will eventually disappear from view.

Very useful for those off the grid dogging activities of the middle class

Best new defender review by a long chalk!......... "into murdering.....!!!" :-) Keep the reviews coming chap, much more informative than the others!

Brilliant review enjoyed your video keep them coming 😀👍👍

needs to be a 3.0D, Driven one and really like it

I'd love one

Great review buddy - like your style of video.

Excellent review. I enjoy your wit 👍👍

I love it i really love it

YOU'VE SOLD IT TO ME!!! Where can I buy a 1:24 scale? I got a small budget

Usual quality review Matt, keep them coming mate .

Followed you almost from the start, even though I have little interest in cars you’re channel is still a “must watch” well done Matt 🤔

OAP’s shower 🤣🤣🤣

And theres the rub, "If I could afford one....."

I just love the tone of the video.

very nice review. Informative and entertaining. Thank you

Surely the straight six Diesel engine slowly being rolled out across many JLR models is an Ingenium engine made like all others in their Wolverhampton engine plant. There have been photos online of a supposedly V8 engined Defender being tested possibly a BMW unit as BMW are moving production of their V8 and V12 engines from Germany to Hams Hall in U.K. where they already make BMW’s 4 pot petrol engines.

Absolutely brilliant review , the hatred comes from the jealousy. Their a load better vehicle and when you see one they look awesome My next car.

well done Matt, another brilliant video, looking very professional, great to get some outside shots

Nice to see you over in Yorkshire doing what you do with humour and honesty.

Omg i never knew adensfield was a real location !, was a kid when i last watched heartbeat though

Only place I have seen these is at my golf club and I doubt the greenkeepers own them...

So love your videos... I work for JLR and enjoyed your review of the Defender

Another great video Matt, thanks for the content keep it up!

I actually went to the configurator on landrover.com to spec my imaginary Defender 90 and after 10 minutes I gave up. The options are just endless.

80 odd ecu's in that baby. Yeah..let me know how that goes!

Another excellent review Matt 👍

It"s great the you reviewed this one already and we didn't have to wait for it. If there was someone I wanted to know his opinion about this car it was you from you . Thanks man - Like you I would also go for the 90

Oh dear... this one is a dangerous one! I'll come back in a couple of hours to enjoy the harsh comments! :D

Good review love the car I’d have one in a Heartbeat....:)

Spot on matt..apparently its full of reliabilty issues already. Have heard stories of cars leaving the showroom and within 8 miles warning lights have been illuminating..land cruiser all the way for me.

Great review , the countryside you are driving through is really scenic, you certainly live in a beautiful part of the country.

You would be perfect for top gear my friend. Clarkson replacement for sure.

As a tradesman I’m using one as a Van, then at wk ends it’s a nice car, save a fortune running a separate van and car now. Nothing else around you can do that in. It’s superb.

That spec is one of the best I've seen up to now 👍🏻

I personally love it . I do think it's funny how it's referenced to be the rightful replacement for the Discovery. If people only realised that was what the original Discovery was intended to be . A follow on replacement for the Defender . Itsall DNA . I think they have it right . 6 pot all the way ! Great review as always 👏
