The LAND ROVER DEFENDER 110 (2019-25) 5DR SUV 4.4P V8 MHEV 635 GPF SS EU6 OCTA AUTO8 is a five-door, large luxury SUV, combining the Defender’s rugged, upright character with flagship performance. In the UK it sits at the expensive, specialist end of the family-SUV market, rather than being a budget choice. It’s suited to drivers wanting space, luggage capacity and comfort for family trips and long journeys, plus confidence on rough tracks. Its size and running costs make it less appealing for tight city streets or economical commuting. The V8 mild-hybrid Octa is notable for its powerful, rapid drive and distinctive blend of luxury and off-road ability. Against rivals such as the Mercedes-Benz G-Class, it stands out for heritage-inspired design and a go-anywhere reputation, while offering modern comfort. mycarcheck.com recorded 106 checks across 72 distinct VINs; checked vehicles averaged 19,000 miles and £134,600 in private-sale value.
