Hi,

I currently have a 1995 Def 90 HT that I purchased Aug 96. It has 4700 miles of which about 1800 are from a trip to Georgia, 1000 are highway miles, and the rest are around town and off-road.

There have been a few very minor problems so far, but nothing that has left me stranded or not covered by the warranty.

Because I have 2 labs, I converted the back to resemble the soft-top Def. - removed the back seats and placed the large rubber mat in. Great as now for clean-up, one just hoses out the back.

All in all, the Def 90 is a little rough for a daily driver,however, mine is the manual without A/C so the 97 might be better in this respect.
Would I trade it for another LR? Not really as it offers true off-road performance unmatched and still decent on road performance.

Buy one before they are all gone?

Regards,

Jim Thompson
