I broke down some reasons why I, as a mechanic, believe that the Land Rover Defender 300tdi/R380 is the best end of the world apocalypse type vehicle available.
1.Handle bad… very bad, road conditions

2. Be pretty easy to service and get back on the road

3. Be able to have “limbs cut off” if necessary… in a pinch, how can I make it get me somewhere if I have to

4. How difficult are basic repairs and can things be easily adapted?

5. Have fuel as available as possible.

6. Minimum electronics
