Since the end of my Freelander (see main forum "Burnt Out Freelander") i have been toying with the idea of selling my Series IIA that i am rebuilding and buying a Defender 90.
What is everyones opinion on this?
I want to get more into off road driving, and it will need to carry 2 kids and a caravan in the near future.
I don't really want a 110 because it is a bit too big for the mrs to drive around in.
The other question is should i get a late (1997/1998) 300tdi or a (post 2000) TD5?
Which is better?
I am new to the Land Rover fraternity so as much info is needed on the Defender, how long will it last, what should i look out for, any faults with these engines, if i wanted to do a trip to Africa in a few years which one would be better.
Thanks
Trevor
