I have no doubt it really will go anywhere (helps that it looks like a revised D4/D5 hybrid) but.......

1. How reliable will it be ?
2. How easy is it to service in remote locations?
3. Can a non LR garage fix it using bits of old scaffolding and some duck tape?
4. Will the engines suffer from oil dilution or crankshaft failure ?

If I could I would still have a 300Tdi, or TD5 and I would consider a Puma old skool defender (but as im an old knacker now I would want an auto conversion )

They don't show you the Toyota Hiluxes round the back of course. Those tracks are pretty good by Kenyan standards, I have driven over far worse in my son's Hilux. The reality is that you need something that the locals can fix, I came across this in Botswana, miles form anywhere, not sure what he was doing but the guy had a half shaft out and was beating it with a lump hammer.

I just looked up where the Borana Trust is based and it's about 20 miles from where my son lives in Kenya. It's not that hot there as the whole area is on the Great Rift Valley plateau at 2,500 metres and with a climate similar to the UK on a nice day (that's why it's excellent for growing arable crops). The problem will be that the LR dealer is about 250km away in Nairobi so good luck calling for LR Assist.  3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto

I’m pretty pleased with how it’s looking.

I love the Velar but I’m looking forward to sitting high up again, that’s the only downside to the Velar, well that and the fact it’s made of sugar so I need something tougher. 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200

It might help if they put real tyres on to go over real rocks!
