Is your Defender your main vehicle?

Yep, mine is used for work & play every day.

Same as, used daily for work and play

Yes. A 110 hardtop 200tdi as a workhorse / camping truck / dog transporter then use my bint's gay little 206 for cheaper runs out if we don't take the special needs dog.

The only other car in the household is the wifes convertible mini, so yes the 110 is my main mode of transport. If i do use the mini i take the landy out for a quick spin to man up again, and to prevent me from growing breasts overnight.

Using either my Alfa 33 or 156 or classic Mini to get to work daily and move about. Using my Alfa Sprint as a "thrashing up the mountain roads" car and planning on using my SUD for classic rally trips.
Just got an Alfa 75 as well which will become my main daily driver so my wife can use the 156 to get to work and take the baby to her mothers.

Planning on using the Disco on Sunday family trips to the beach or snow, on supermarket outings and as a fun car when it rains and all is muddy

No, got a mental RenaultSport Clio for my usual car, the Defender is a joint cunning plan between myself and my old man to have a real man's car for towing stuff, going fishing, taking stuff to the dump and other such activities

Always liked Landies, learned to drive on an ancient, rattly, but fully functioning Series II when I was 14 and have wanted one ever since. Love the simple design and meccano nature of the way it's put together.

My wife just blew up my Renault Grand Scenic so yes my Defender is now my main set of wheels.

Yes. Pick up for short runs either by myself or with one or two family members and a 110 as the family wagon. The wife has a Santa Fe but I'd rather not talk about that.

Yes. It's my main (and only) vehicle, used as an everyday road car. I keep it polished to a high sheen at all times. God it's shiney

got a focus for my main car

a series 3 which will be sold soon and getting a 110.

keeping the focus till it dies then the 110 willbecome my main vehicle

If u take ur focus offroad it will die sooner so i wouldnt worry that much

Its about a 55 mile round trip to work and the focus does around 55MPG with carefull driving so it makes economical sense to have this as my main vehicle the when it dies buy something even more frugal for the trip to work and keep the defender for everything else.

I hear u mate but mpg is not what cars are all about. Had to drive my wives mothers 1.4 honda civic up the mountains last weekend.

Usual drive for me , but the 45 mile trip felt like i was driving from Manchester to Southamptons !

I'd rather pay a fiver more on fuel and go with a faster , more powerful car and enjoy the trip as well.

When i got up there i went to sleep, when normally i'm a lot more sociable

yes of course is my main car.. strange question, yours...

fuel? after a fast communication between nanocom and cpu consumptions are better... and more horses available too:bounce:

I've 2 bicycle too. a mountainbike (value, 2 pence) called anarcobike 'cause you can go everywhere downtown, and a 1960 racing bike called anarcofast

We have only had our Lola for a few weeks, but I wouldn't drive anything else now. Hubby has a Brompton though, does that count?

thats all good if you can afford 2 gallons or fuel a day to get to work and back, personally i prefer to save £35 a week and spend it on my hobbies, and truth is the focus is faster and has a better power to weight ratio than the defender anyway. I love driving my series about the place, but its a bit to noisy and un reliable to tkae long distances. Hence buying the 110, i hope this will replace my focus for alot of my holiday trips and be a more useable car for taking to play days etc.

Well you have a point. I just have a different point of view because cars IS my hobby

I actually get crossed in the mornings driving to work, because its very close to my house and i dont get to drive much

yep
100 miles per day; now getting 31.266 mpg from 110 doublecab p/up, td5 - rain or shine

yep, use my 90 200tdi for 75 mile round trip to work everyday

I'm with supercharged, my Landy is my hobby

Mine's also TD5 DCPU and it does 20K a year- yes, its my main car. Best Land Rover product I've owned yet in 20 years of driving them, and I don't think I'll ever part with it.
