Where I live near Inverness, there are lots of farmers who've converted to jap pickups instead of defenders. They're cheaper, faster, quieter, drier, and cheaper to run.
Losers have all gone native.
Defenders rock.
Yeah but that far north they also sleep with their sisters!
Most of our posh rangies never make it beyond the Edinburgh city limits!!!ohhh i must live in posh countryside then cos we have about an equal mix of farmer fenders and posh rangies![]()

Most arable farmers drive Range Rovers these days. Dairy farmers will have a newish Defender or a Jap pick up of some sort. Sheep, beef and market gardeners will have the "farmers special", £175, beaten up jumble of parts which might be mostly Hilux, some bodywork adapted from a disused shed, 4 road tyres of different makes and major components held onto the vehicle using baler twine.
pmsl nearly right, our beef farmer has a real farmers special, old hilux with a rear window missing and big dent in roof because he hit it with the muirhill bucket, 1 slow puncture and no 4 wheel drive cos it's knackeredcan't get in the back seats cos there full of stuff, not that you;d want to cos theres bound to be a few used vaccs needles in there
