this would be an awesome defender 6x6

this would be an awesome Defender to convert into an exploration vehicle, if anyone knows a place to get a similar one feel free to comment



def a true 6x6 with dual cab

That's one hell of a nice piece of kit.

Tis rather nice, but abit excessive imho.

i don't quite understand the 6x6 as such, engineering side i think it's a marvel, but the use/cost of it doesn't warrant it imho.

Looking at that in the pic, surely a more suitable vehicle could be used instead of a Land Rover...

awesome. and in hongkong.

I build/modify the chassis to that pattern, but to be honest the double trailling arm set up is crap for actual offroading, the only way for it to work is rocking suspension like a 8 wheeler or the perentie landys

I like it but it wouldn't go in my garage

Turning circle as big as the M25.
Not good under trees.
Back tyre wear hell, I suspect.
For a vehicle this big better off with an actual 4x4 truck. BT must sometimes sell off these things.

Turning circle isnt bad unless really loaded, tire wear is fine and are really stable when towing ,almost like a big yank pick up

A cool machine and if I won the lotto I would have one but I dont think it would be much better if any than than a normal 130.
I have a 110 and it earns its keep I have never needed to be pulled out so far but I know it might happen next week. They cost way to much to build, I would prefer a detroit locker or similiar it would work better although not as eye catching

Its all in the gvw, 2500kg on the back no probs
