Best case scenario - 65mph very light on throttle, more like low teens if it’s more of a wheelspin situation 😳, day to day 24mph ish. The older w460 is rear wheel or 4wd switchable so on the road it’s much more efficient for fuel and power driving just 2 wheels. Everything 1991 onward is permanent 4wd
I love mine, it's a 3litre super turbo diesel, 300bhp tuneable to double that if you wanna spend a few grand on turbos and gearboxes but such a great machine. I've driven defenders (including the 'twisted' variety) and you can't compare in regards to build quality and driving experience. A very solid capable machine that is incredible off road and comfortable on the motorway that can be had for not too much money and only go up in value if you can afford to maintain them (which isn't nearly as much as people think)
I have a second child on the way in 2 weeks so sadly i will be selling my 2 door to fund something more practical (4 doors and modern) and I might buy a series two landlover when we move to house with a garage! I've be very sad to see her go. :(
p.s the link above the for the blue one is a petrol 2.73 - about 100 bhp and and 10mpg, my om606 diesel has 300bhp and 30mpg. forget petrol for Gwagens. Also can be run on 100% veg oil, 2500 litres a year tax free all above board.
