Thank you for the replies! Both are certified pre owned, so there is some comfort there. I won’t be hauling anything other than the family haha. I primarily wanted a daily driver (don’t commute much) and a nice vehicle to take to Vermont. This feels like the right fit for sure. I’m not particular to any engine, I’m more concerned about reliability and if I do take it for some very minor off road, it’ll handle it.

my only complication now is finding one that has the tiny 3rd row. I don’t need for long trips but getting pressure as a “just in case” we need to haul people and our other vehicle isn’t available.

and great community here, the advice has been great!

I’ll keep you posted!

 

ls the 4 cylinder engine not an MHEV (someone above says it has no 48v battery)

lf that's the case it would swing my decision towards the 4 cylinder

Less to go wrong, as mentioned. Hate to think of the cost of replacing the MHEV battery a few years down the line.

 

Correct. No MHEV/supercharger thingy.

Simple (ha!) 4 cyl turbo making 300 hp. That's a lot funnier if you're an old coot like me that remembers when you needed to mod your V8 to hit 300hp.😉

 

4 cylinder runs pretty hot if you ask me, and if that turbo goes I doubt it even driveable.

 

The post 2018 Jeep Wrangler seems to do just fine with the 2.0 4 cylinder turbo.

I am still on the Jeep forum (it was either a Wrangler LWB or the Defender) and l've not heard anyone complain about the engine being underpowered or giving trouble.

 

Getting closer to a decision.

The 2021 110 SE with 46k miles was purchased at dealer and was maintained exceptionally well.

The 2022 110 S that has 22k was used as a loaner vehicle at this dealer and was purchased at auction.

Both have CPO. Anyone have experience with the Land Rover Extended warranties? Both seem like good candidates for it.

thanks!

 

We love the 2.0 4 cylinder. No 48v to worry about, plenty of power in our mountain trips also. Get the newer one with 1/2 the miles.

 

Well, after considerable debate, I ended up going with the 110 SE with a 9yr/125k extended warranty.

Absolutely loving it so far. The 110 S didn’t have air suspension and I found myself missing the 6 cylinder in the SE.

thank you very much for all the advice! Now begins Defender ownership, I’m sure I’ll be back with questions.

 

Very nice, my fav color. I just got mine yesterday. Who is the warranty through and would you mind sharing the cost?

 

9 year warranty is certainly a good deal. I love the Tasman Blue, same as my 90.
