The 300 TDi is very fuel efficient and average in the upper 20s' per gallon. They are probably the most practical vehicle available. Not only is there no tune ups due to the Diesel motor but they are highly desirable and increasing in value by an average of 20% annually. No other vehicle does that.
We're often asked who can service a Defender? Answer: Most independent European repair shops that service Mercedes Benz, BMW and Volvo also work on Defenders. Also shops that service Ford, Dodge and Chevy diesels will service a Defender. However the Fuel Injected Turbo Diesel 300 TDi is highly reliable and most last much longer than 500,000 miles.
