    That Defender had its UK plates in the back E251LJE. Its recorded as being first registered on the 1st September 1987 and its a 2494cc Diesel. It last passed its UK MOT (a check to see if its safe to use on the road) in 2014 having done 202598 miles.

    The 'Checker plate' on the Defenders hood and front wings is quite a common after market mod.
    They're tough old 4X4s and they can take the weight of an adult standing on them, though I don't think they ever came from the factory that way.
    The most reliable ones are really the older 4 cylinder models.
    Reg: E251 LJE is a 2.5 lter diesel, last change of ownership in the UK was Sept 2012 and its average yearly mileage up to its last annual MOT Sept 2015( vehicle test) was 7500 miles a year.
    After that presumably it was exported, ending up in the US.

    They made the Land Rover Defender up until 2016 in the UK, all the way from 1984 when it became the Defender instead of the Land Rover Series I/II/III. That one will probably be a UK import being RHD. It is rare to see an automatic one to be honest. In the later years you could only get them with a manual, paired with a 2.2 diesel inline 4 (also used in the Evoque & Freelander in the UK at the time). Examples from the mid 00s came with the 2.5 TD5 inline 5 diesel engine.

Its highly customizable. It was the English version to the American jeep. Its beauty is in its ruggedness, probably the only vehicle that looks amazing whilst being very dirty.

    That LR Defender was the car that set the standard for off roaders and has its roots from the first 'Landie' in 1948. It was so good that when LR had to stop making it when regulations changed INEOS cloned it and called it the 'Grenadier'. It was the car that gave the chassis and 4 wheel drive to the very first range Rover. The car that created the SUV market.
    They go forever and that 4 banger diesel is the 300 Tdi which is bullet proof. There is a longer wheelbase version and they came with a range of engines including an ex Buick Rover 3.5 litre V8.
    The British Army swear by these things and still use them.

    The front end of the Land Rover Defender kind of looks like the INEOS Grenadier, which a new yet boxy and rugged vehicle. I'm not sure if you know about the Grenadier, and it's probably not sold in the U.S yet.
    Too bad the i8 is still sitting for several months. It was a nice vehicle before whatever accident they got into. I'm sure you don't see exotics in Oklahoma, especially an i8.

    That Land Rover Defender, have a body made of aluminium, doors too, steel frame underneath, think a 2.25 ltr diesel engine, 4 cilinder, 4x4, but also 2x4 driving, its a 90 inch frame, the short version, RHD, think its coming frome the UK. You can take out the window frames from the doors, so that you can drive a little bit more open. Also the roof and sidewalls on the back can be removed, so that the whole car can drive open, the only con is that you then do not have a rear boot to close.

I think the way you dismiss those feelings is kind of unfortunate given that the only reason this channel is profitable for you is because of the viewers that are so emotionally invested in the channel.
