When we needed something to help us cart all our filming gear around in the build-up to and during Goodwood SpeedWeek presented by Mastercard, the obvious thing was something from Land Rover. Fortunately, they offered us a Defender 110, which we happily accepted.
But since Goodwood is blessed with many tracks, a rally stage and a purpose-built off-road arena, it seemed like a no-brainer that when we came to film with it we would take it not only on-road but off too, to find out if it is a car truly worthy of its name.
So is the Defender worth the title? Well, you’ll have to watch the video to find out. Safe to say the anger it evokes has probably been exaggerated. But you’ll see it challenged on our tricky berms and jumps, and we’ll even put it through the fearsome dog test…
