You'll get addicted, once you saw it as a favorite vehicle, you can't get that thought away from you. I'm 17, I even willing to buy one for myself with my money I saved. Regardless if the car was from 1969 and an old project.

  • @robertocamargo5212
    @robertocamargo5212 6 років тому +2

    First let me point out that the video is a great advertisement for the Land Rover brand and its cars. I've read many of the comments below and some are quite amusing: Brits x Americans...JEEP X Land Rovers...some saying bad things about the unreliability of the Land Rovers compared to the reliability of the japanese brands - Toyota with the Land Cruiser (a bit of a name rippoff) and Nissan - Patrol.
    I've never had the pleasure to own a Land Rover myself, despite being quite inclined (emotionally NOT rationally) to buying one, but I do own a Mitsubishi PAJERO (SHOGUN in UK, and MONTERO in US and other countries) and I have lots of good things to say about it too, so let me start...first it is really a very tough car, able to climb mountains, travel on dirt roads, go through mud, rivers, sand and anything that our beloved mother earth has to offer in terms of terrain.
    Second it does so offering a very good level of comfort to its occupants, with low levels of noise inside the cabin, with comfortable space and leather seats, air-conditioning and other amenities.
    Third, it is very reliable, and that is very important also. It gets you where you need to go and it brings you back home safe and sound. It does not break on you on the middle of the desert, so to speak. That's why it was 12 times winner of the Rally Paris-Dakar!!! In some of the editions of the Rally Paris-Dakar, not less than 8 out of the top 10 competitors that finished that competition were driving a PAJERO/MONTERO/SHOGUN!! So now think about a reliable car under extremely harsh conditions: PAJERO IS IT!!! Brazil, Africa, Australia, and other parts of the world it can tackle the tough terrain, being some of the best in its class. Very underated car I must add.
    If Land Rover has CAMEL TROPHY (and I dearly remember it as I was a young teenager in the 80's and 90's) MITSUBISHI has PARIS-DAKAR!!!
    As you can see I'm a fan of the MITSUBISHI car named PAJERO here in Brazil, but I deeply respect also the Land Rover fans, the JEEP fans, the LAND CRUISER fans and others. We all seek cars that are great company to us and to our loved ones when we travel, and we love that these cars can take us where we want to go to explore and enjoy the world around us, specially outdoors, to see the beautiful nature and its scenery.
    Best of luck to you all!!!

    • @federicoacker5672
      @federicoacker5672 6 років тому

      Roberto: what you say is it all true, but I think the only reason why the Pajero/Montero line it never was a major success it´s because of Mitsubishi marketing and sales policies, since Pajero/Montero was design only to be a competitor to the Range Rover, and never has a spread models variety, like Patrol and Land Cruiser did (long/short chassis with multiple body options: troopy carrier, open pick-up 2/4 doors, sation wagon 3/5 doors short and long, etc, etc). Pajero/Montero only offers a very narrow range of options, and was design as a true "premium" 4x4, (I think it was the first in it´s class to offer a independant suspension in the front axle) one of the first, it is true, but nothing more came after, and thats way the sales never been outstanding, more than in it´s own niche. Regards!

Drive through small puddles would stall the engine. Ignition had to be replaced, as the original is known to be rubbish. All parts are really expensive. Rust in hard to clean places is a MAJOR problem.
    Sand particles get into the CV joints, seizing the hubs so that they must be cut off with a gas axe, I'm not exaggerating.

You should mentioned the newer models that are computer on wheels, the old school pre 2000 was dependable, and reliable. The basic 3.5l v8, 200tdi and 300tdi engine are quite common to reach 500k miles. Hell the reason why did they still produce those tdis engine in Brazil for third world countries when they already had create the official new td5 5 pot engine to public. I think those people right, people like you did get brainwashed by media regarding the Range Rover reliability. Yall even can't spot the difference between a Land Rover and a Range Rover
