capabilities. During that time the Land Rover Defender has earned worth and
merit in endurance motor sport events including the popular Paris-Dakar rally

four-wheel driven cars and vehicles. And the Land Rover Defender is the ulimate
off roader out of this famous product line. It has simlicity, yet unequalled
strength and itīs known abilities to make it sure-footed and almost
unstoppable. May the road or track youīre driving on be a hot dessert sand, a
deep wading through a river or a high altitude mountain trail, the Land Rover
Defender four-wheel offroader will be able to get you through it. It has a good
reputation of being the toughest 4x4 off road vehicle built ever. It comes along
to handle all these difficult routes and tracks with the help of hard and rough
winching and towing if necessary.
The Land Rover Defender has been equipped with a very
powerful Td5 2.5 liter diesel engine. This Land Rover engine had been especially
designed and tuned for off road expectations and challenges. Depending on the
range of gearing selected the Land Rover Defenderīs engine is controlled by a
throttle mapping system, that has the ability to allow for different levels of
accelaration. This provides the drivers a high and a low ratio selection along
with ten forward and two reverse gears. Using these choices the Defender gearing
allows for the power to go uphill and also provides the safety during crawling
at extreme angles over loose ground.

If you still own a Landrover Defender, stick to it and do
not sell! A new model in replace to the Land Rover Defender has been in the
design phase for years already, but never came out till date. The model design
it was last seen has already got rough 20 years of age and does not differ a lot
from the older models and when we compare them with the Land Rover vehicles
built back in the 1950s only very slight model updates can be recognized so far.
Most of competition models today do offer lotīs more of
passenger comfort and mostly come along with a modern looking design, like many
Japanese and Corean but also American and European car models out of the off
roader and SUV model series. Nevertheless most of these models, especially the
pricewise more attractive ones do still not offer off road capabilities as known
from the Landrover Defender models. For the year 2007 a Defender replacement has
been announced by Rover, however due to the high costs involved in developing
and building the Defender successor and new manufacturing methods and
investments coming along with this project, it may well be that it does not come
out very profitable. Driven by these ecological facts Rover has had no other
choice than giving the kick off of the new Land Rover models, especially the one
to replace the legendary Defender less prioritiy.
