I’ve always found greasing the king pin then actually moving it side to side two or three times every morning stops king pin wear & using k48 molly grease from morris lubricants

Considering how big they are though I think they feel really cramped in comparison to the discovery though. Almost as if they had to cling on to it as a key design feature of defenders

It’s a strange one, the cabin is bigger on the defender as the doors are thinner/less sound proofing , the discovery has far nicer seats , much comfier and supportive etc.
The boot is tiny on the defender - disco5 boot is literally twice the size!
This would be taking the place of my Hilux, and I’d pick up a used lwb van for my rough work/tool carrier(doing actual work with!)

Dedicated tow vehicle….So the defender will just be for poncing around in.

Apparently the Defender has battered the discovery sales, discovery is being redesigned soon

Yea I think it was 110k defender and 15k disco sold last year!
Genuinely the disco is the better car, being smoother more refined and comfortable, but as a commercial the defender is much better, with the full wash out floor, more rugged plastics etc, larger cabin and 3 seats up front.

Agree but I prefer def to drive over my D5. Handles way better and goes like stink.
Plus with 3 kids they trash the interior and disco all a bit gloss and posh.
And regards space I reckon rear 3 seats and area is biggest out there...my lad is 6"5 now 🫣

Yeah it’s a tough one, rear seat space is amazing in defender but the boot barely fits the pram in - where as the disco gets pram and full Costco shop in no problem!
Vomit wash out is a handy feature, was deviated when mine threw up all over the back of our current one - luckily she aimed directly as the rubber floor mats
