>70k USD on a fucking Defender

jesus christ doug
>1997 used land rover
>$70k
It is quite high. Close to NAS Defender 110 money.
>>16954474
>he spent $70,000 on a limey wannabe Jeep
>Doug has the money to blow $70,000 on a British knock-off Jeep
How many cocks did he suck at Autotrader to get this?
>>16954500
Why tho?
Keep sucking that Britcock, colonials.
I'm European and I've never seen a yellow Defender in my life. This a Burger thing or something? Also
>1997
How did it get pass the 25 import rule?
>>16954525
US Spec. He says it was restores, so probably had another paint.
>>16954511
Except the defender is older than the wrangler dumb dumb
doug is the biggest fucking goofball, I'm a hipster americunt who fantisizes about defenders but even I wouldn't pay 70 fucking thousand for one
>>16954549
I'd pay 10 for an import if it had a good set of AT tires, a rear locker and are rust free once they reach that age
>>16954543
>>16954525
There were many yellow ones sold in the us
>>16954546
Jeeps have been around since the war, kid. And they'll always trump your posh little British failures.
>>16954511
I legit don't get the land rover meme at all. Wrangler's look much better to me are a considerably less expensive.
>>16954556
US Spec then.
I'm ok with the color desu.

>a willys mb is a jeep
Amerifats are unironically this stupid
>>16954594
>a Jeep CJ isn't a Jeep
Try harder next time
>>16954611
>A willys-overlander cj 2a isnt a jeep
Pretty much
>>16954627
Huh, I could of sworn they were jeeps. My mistake!
>>16954649
Pretty much, they were officially known as willys
The first official use of the name Jeep as a proper brand was in the cj7
Before that, "jeep" was nust a surname, hence the uotations marks in your image
>>16954582
I think it has a lot to do with the heritage Land Rover had pre-BMW years. They just make you feel good when you drive one. Look at any adverts of the early LRNA years and you'll see why. And of course, Camel Trophy.
>>16954594
GP -> Jeep
The willys mb is the original jeep
>>16954525
hesaid in the video that it was US spec retard
>>16954704
I think you mean Ford Pygmy and GPW

>>16954712
If we're gonna be anal bantan was first, the gpw came after the mb.
I really don't think the old land rovers are suited to 'fun' driving. They're work horses for just getting the job done.
Mine's a '77 and it wouldn't have struggled over any of those obstacles, is happy, if a bit noisy, at 50mph fully loaded on its leaf springs and it's like that all the time, give it a job and it'll get on with it with minimal fuss.
Sorry for blog post.
