United Kingdom 2019 Range Rover Autobiography SDV8 Carpathian Grey
Back in the LR fold

Some of you may have seen my post from earlier this year where I described my move from an L405 to an F-Pace SVR.

Well my time with Jaguar is already coming to end as I’m about to take ownership of a new Land Rover Defender 110. Not quite a Full Fat I know but at least it’s a Land Rover.

Hi John, we're still towing the caravan but not been away much due to the Covid situation. Next trip away is planned for the end of August. It'll be interesting to see how the Defender compares to the L405 when towing. 2019 L405 SDV8 Autobiography

Hi Martin,

The F-Pace was very nice but perhaps a bit too focussed after coming from a L405 AB. The performance was astonishing and I rarely gave it the full beans due to the speed it could get to very quickly. I suspect that if I'd kept it for any length of time my license would have taken a hit. In some ways the Covid outbreak was helpful as it restricted the amount of miles I completed. 2019 L405 SDV8 Autobiography

Hi Stan,

Yes, I've already joined the Defender forum. Looks like there's a lot of traditionalists there who are a against the new model. There might be some interesting discussion to be had in the coming months. 2019 L405 SDV8 Autobiography
