Landrover Defender 90 2.4 TD and Bailey

Dave Oliver reviewed on 14 May 2014 a Landrover Defender 90 2.4 TD (122 PS/90 Kw, Year: 2006 - 2013) with a Bailey Pegasus GT65 Bologna of 1606 kg.

I find the Defender 90 (2013 model) good at towing what is quite a heavy van. the low down torque is especially adept for any hill work. Not the quickest but feels very safe and secure. the utilitarian aspect of the Defender with a sturdy and strong ball plate means no damage if the towing van makes contact on hitching up, always a nightmare with the soft plastic painted bumpers on cars. all in all impressed with my choice.

Landrover Defender 90 3.5 V8 and Compass

G e g reviewed on 24 February 2013 a Landrover Defender 90 3.5 V8 (116 PS/85 Kw, Year: 1983 - 1986) with a Compass Omega 540 of 1560 kg.

The Land Rover 90 with the 3900cc V8 is very power full.
it will tow my large compass omega at 60 mph on any road or motorway incline.
.
the only drawback is fuel use at 10mpg petrol or 8mpg on l p g

Had no problems whatsoever, a towing experience any one with a large caravan should try.

Colin reviewed on 01 May 2011 a Landrover Defender 110 Td5 (122 PS/90 Kw, Year: 1998 - 2006) with a Bailey Ranger 510 of 1235 kg.

I used this once and although I accept it was a nice stable towcar it's certainly not relaxing. The noise is tiresome and when driving without the van the sluggish response and sloppy handling (combined with the noise) don't result in enjoyable journeys. Go for a large saloon or MPV unless you really need the weight.

Landrover Defender 90 Td5 and Compass

Richard Corfield reviewed on 01 May 2010 a Landrover Defender 90 Td5 (122 PS/90 Kw, Year: 1998 - 2006) with a Compass Corona 475 of 1249 kg.

Tows well. Pulls caravan out of muddy fields well! (Has mud-and-snow tyres). A little more fuel consumption versus solo at 50mph to 60mph cruising, but fares very well. Maybe slightly slower than solo on climbs but no problem. Otherwise as if caravan not there. Could take it into the Lake District and not worry about it. Only problem is fitting 2 kids into the older Landrover with side facing rear seats so we'll have to sell it :-(

Landrover Defender 90 2.5 TDi and Swift

Paul Newman reviewed on 08 April 2010 a Landrover Defender 90 2.5 TDi (113 PS/83 Kw, Year: 1996 - 1998) with a Swift Challenger SE 530 of 1545 kg.

This combination is the most efficient that I have ever driven. The Landrover Defender 90 Td5 has never faultered as a tow car. It returns around 23mpg whilst towing (29mpg solo) Gives best results at 55-58mph. Fuel consumption increases when speed is pushed to more than 60mph. Stability has never been a problem, there is little effect from sidewind, or when being overtaken by a large vehicle.
Overall - a super outfit.

Landrover Defender 110 Td5 and Coachman

Graham morley reviewed on 18 May 2008 a Landrover Defender 110 Td5 (122 PS/90 Kw, Year: 1998 - 2006) with a Coachman Amara 580 of 1500 kg.

I've got a 4 range rovers (one from each decade ... its a land rover thing!.. buy one and go to a show you will see what i mean) and a 110 landrover and the early rangies ow better than the 110 or the newer air suspended range rovers. Maybe the tired coils on the suspension negates alot of the probs, as the air is twitching all the time. the 110 is just too hard and bobs about all the time. I'm going to try range rover erly progressive spring on the 110 to see if it makes a difference

The best towing car I have ever tried by far. The car is in total control and takes no nonsence from the caravan. Since getting the Defender towing has become positivly relaxing.
