I wouldn't look too much into that. That truck has seen thousands of trails. It was likely a matter of a worn out part that finally failed, than a weak CV. It's a rarity.

Going to portugal in december, the GR 2.8td is around 6000€ (y60). Have to check costs. Way better than a defender.

Plus having three different "spotters" and someone yelling out "give er!" probably didn't help either hahaha.

probably overkill when the 2.8 can get it done with slightly better mileage. and cheaper too.
