hi all
I'm thinking about buying a defender 110 HT as i need a vehicle that can carry all my tools whilst still being able to fit my mountain/ diatribe in the back also. but before i start going to look at some defenders i was wondering if any of you guys would know of another vehicle similar to the defender in terms of an off road commercial vehicle that has a hard top so its out of the rain and sights of other people,

basically looking for a pickup/offroad with a hard top

i also trying to stay aways from getting a van i can

any advice would be much appreciated thanks.

Any of the Japanese pickups with the hardtop options for the load bed?

How "off road" do you need to be

Ford ranger with a hard top would be my choice

Or a shogun van, or even a normal shogun and rip out seats

Defenders are good if you want a "hobby" and are full of character, but they are uncomfortable at times also they are very high risk of being nicked

Everyone round here (cotswolds) who used to drive a defender for work use now drives a Dmax.
