    Not a true reflection of average mpg if you've done it over just 30 miles. Better judge would be to do it over several tanks full to empty to truly average out the mpg.

    Great vid! I've taken my 4.5 on several 3k mile round trips to the south of Spain from Surrey, and it averaged 24.8 to 25 mpg over those trips, admittedly mostly steady 80mph. Mapped by the legendary Joolz at Kits and Classics in Chesterfield (Cerbera tuning guru). It has consistently given 411BHp on Dyno Dynamics rollers ever since, over the last 15 years.

    Do NOT listen to the naysayers who slag City people with them and who add their own add ons they want. A kind of snobbery. 😂😂 I have worked on and driven them in various forms since 1963 in the 🪂Regt. Later leaving Army prepped a 11A and over landed to India with my wife. I still have a 110 td5 double cab for 14 years, no longer do my own work repairs as at almost 80 I am finding it harder with old injuries catching up.😜😂 I STILL LOVE THEM, NO MATTER WHO HAS ONE OR HOW IT LOOKS.

I bought it in wellington and drove it home to the bottom of the south island in a very non direct route covering 2400KM, it did 26 mpg, so your cerberra's economy didn't surprise me much. Beautiful car,by the way

  • @chriswalker4272
    @chriswalker4272 9 місяців тому

    @chriswalker4272 You don't need massive wheels on a defender, because it makes steering heavy and doesn't improve drivability, unless your driving on soft sand or rock crawling. Which you don't. Also fitting a sump guard for looks only will reduce cooling airflow over your sump, which is more looks over function. But Defenders are really about function over looks. That's why you won't see these kinds of mods on Defenders that do spend much of their time, actually working off road for real. I like to keep my Landies factory original, although I have gas flowed the head on my 300 TDI, for efficiency. It is a new head so why not. The castings are quite rough internally so port and polish I have. But I love the farmy look. My Landy's are still used to work, even my 1974 S3 88" still oves a romp in my woodland with my chainsaw lol

    I’m not a Mercedes nut so I’m not fully up to date on how much they’re worth but this price does not surprise me at all. Very rare car with the 7.3 litre V12 that’s used in the paganis, only 85 in the world were made this particular example has crazy low miles looks to be in perfect condition and is a royal car which makes it a 1 of 4 according to google as he ordered 25 but only got 4. So very rare very low miles very good condition and from what many perceive to be the golden age of Mercedes is why this price does not surprise me. This is still far less than what an AMG hammer would sell for. One of those sold for over $750,000 which is just crazy
