What you have to keep in mind is that the Series (and then morphing into the Defender) Land Rovers, were designed for the farmers of England and Europe. They were an agricultural vehicle, desinged simply, manufactured simply, to be repaired simply. Unfortunatley, the poseur crowd has infiltrated the ranks and are trying to utilize them in ways they were not designed. I would gamble that most are not used off road (much like any other SUV).
