I own the latest generation Defender. At work I run Lc 100 Lc 200, Troppy 70! S DiscoS and Range Rovers.
I live and work in Ethiopia.
Toyota Is more common, spares are more readily available and they are reliable.
however, where I put LC 200S, some soft skin, some armoured. They break in the terrain. Defenders go where they cant.
so be sensible, how tough terrain will you be going on? If it is not full on, wet season off rosd, then take the toyota. If u cannot maitain a car, take the toyota.
That being said, mt Defender is the family car, does have electric windows and air fon, and goes just about anywhere, with a very precious cargo aboard, my wife and 3 children.
modern Defenders by the way are as technilogical as any other make.
