- Another @landrover Defender lands in MotoCanyon, this time the largest one on offer: The @LandRoverUSA Defender 130. MotoMan presents how the Land Rover Defender 130 is different than the @LandRoverUK Defender 110 and how the 14 extra inches in length impact the way the Land Rover Defender 130 drives.

Older defenders were often modified for longer beds or for more passengers, they were often referred to at 130s
How about a 10 year bumper to bumper warranty. Or maybe a collaboration with Toyota. One party could use the styling help and the other party could use the reliability help.
Definitely a longer warranty would make me feel less shaky about buying one.
I honestly got lost in the camera angles from the height of the interior that peered down over the precipice. Three angles to document the third row approach and landing was priceless. Kept me watching a product I’ll never buy and learning more than other reviews share. That third row was livable if I had a crowd to move around. Nice work‼️ 13:41
Thanks for the feedback Gary . . . As you saw, that was a challenging part of the day:)
You are good at this
My pleasure!
The 130 defender used to be made for utility companies and the like. They took a 110 chassis and added a bit. It allowed you to have a double cab and full size bed.
Loved the walk around you did with Roman at the auto show! Love your style definitely rang the bell😎
So ashame that Land Rover is bottom of the top 20 auto makers that sell in the US around reliability. (JD Power) I literally started to order one and with an 18 month wait and a $10,000 over MSRP required by the dealerships in Houston TX, I did a lot more research and just gave up on it. Talk to people that have them. That's what I did.
I just ordered a luxury SUV from a more reliable competitor around the middle of the reliability list.
Sort of flat folding rear seats. Why didn't we get rid of those in the 80s? Many brands can indeed make them fold flat. How hard can it be? Do brands hate us, to make them sort of fold only? Those last 10 or 15 degree are priceless in usability.
As always a practically concise review from Motoman. Thanks. One of the most practical vehicles sold today if the price is not an issue. Just to add that if bought with a 3.0 mild hybrid diesel it can easily average 30 mpg.
But the real question is, would you buy one or just lease it for three years so you can avoid the expense repairs?
The name makes a lot of sense to me. You have the 90 and the 110 and then you just add another 20 to get the 130. I love the defender but from the rear three quarters this one looks a bit too much like a school bus.
90 -> 110 -> guess the most probable number would be 130
I’d buy one if captain’s chairs were an option for the second row.
You can option it as a five seater giving you a flat floor to the second row and slightly more cargo space. If you want nice leather in the rear seats to match the front seats it's an upcharge under "extended leather package" Yikes! HUD and Adaptive Cruise Control are optional upgrades too!
Does the second row actually fold flat, as in level? That would be huge to me.
Not completely flat but close.
Great video. And great scenery--where did you film it?
Thanks! This episode was shot in the Santa Monica Mountains just outside of LA.
love the color , there is a 2 row opt id go for the S model in sedona red with a white top
Thank god we get the d300 diesel in uk
What's the difference between this p400 and the 130 X?
The X adds more equipment and changes the trim - as it does with the 110.
Great review as usual. The D7u platform cannot take rear wheel steering - will be able to when / if Defender goes onto MLA
How appropriate! They give it a name that sounds like a engine code misfire! (P400) lol
I’m not used to seeing him drive this slow but how fast can you really drive in something the size of a school bus 🤷🏾♂️
Dealers in Sarasota Fl, stated that after 5 years, Land Rovers are worth nothing in trade. That after 5 years you must get ride of it. Why would you buy one if the dealerships are declaring them junk.
I would hope the defender has a better ride then a “ford” navigator haha, best to yah motoman
Is it just me or is there something off about the rear-right wheel?
They should have packaged the spare underneath… or option to eliminate and have a patch kit..
Land Rover market it as a off roader. Reason the spare is on the rear, is so it can be accessed, if off road and unable to access under the vehicle. Same as a G Wagon, Land Cruiser, etc.
Perhaps a brief portion of your videos could showcase the switch gear.. and the multi-media systems?.. or a separate video completely devoted- might get more ‘likes’ and or subscribers.
Appreciate the honest feedback.
Why climb over the second row seat when there is a lever to pull the seat forward to climb into the rear row?😅
Impossing and impressive, tho I can’t imagine the full utility of the extra seating being ever utilized for the supposed off road capable mission. I guess its not fair to say that having the option isn’t nice, but it screams “more is more!” mentality where folks buy something for excess.
But then again, I’m not the target market.
The quiet part no one talks about: Outside of an outliers outlier, NONE of these are taken off road. The most dirt they see is the trailhead to Crater Lake.
Wish you would talk more about the warranties… and any past issues- giving us more purchasing power.
There better 3-row choices out there. This vehicle is designed for Brits, who'll buy anything as long as it has nice materials. Just ask JayEmm.
Review of the V8 version pretty please….
Granted: ua-cam.com/video/SqB0B1UYJM8/v-deo.html
Thanks for the excellent review but I wouldn’t have one due to reliability reputation. These premium auto makers have to improve in that area.
A hugely valid point. And one of the reasons I own a Lexus.The good news, even amongst all the complexity in modern luxury cars, there is some movement on making at least parts of them more reliable. Case in point: The Mercedes 48V Mild Hybrid System. Replaces the entire accessory drive with an Integrated Starter Generator.
What is the name of this color? I think this color not available in India.
Looks pretty sharp, but the back seat is kind of ridiculous. Just make it a large hauler SUV and don't pretend to be a 7 passenger people mover.
Adding the third row which has no rear end protection get idea…. Not
More or less the price of a Rivian. What is Landrover/Jaguar to do when they (soon, supposedly) go full electric? They'll need to do so much better than I-Pace did, and that wasn't even amazing for its time. Anything less a drivetrain than Rivain or Lucid not offer, even if simplified, would be a defeat, right?
That’s not how you get in the 3rd row. The seat tilts and slides forward…
Go back and watch that whole segment.
It’s all irrelevant. These are terribly unreliable vehicles. An ex landowner salesman once advised me never to buy one.
That thing looks aweful. Gives me Ford Flex vibes and that things uglier.
So what you’re saying is if you need something to haul people, Get a minivan! And it’ll be way way more reliable than this pos!
When the day they make it a pure EV… WATCH OUT!
LRs and RRs should only get tan leather interiors.😉👌
I've seen this vehicle in the mountain climbing commercial.🏔️
Glad you reviewed it Motoman. 👍
Agree about the interior trim choice!
