Freedom On Four Wheels: “La Poderosa” Lives For The Wild
Thank you all for watching and commenting! We’re gearing-up to drive La Poderosa from Mexico to Argentina – crossing the Andes and the Amazon so please tune in! Cheers, Sean and Mittie (seanandmittie.com).
Oh petrolicious you have done it again! What a beautifully shot video, with incredible content and outlook on llife.
I am feeling inspired and energetic with new ideas for travel. My very first car was a Land Rover Discovery 1, they got a special place in my heart. Thank you again for your work.
Yes agree completely what a great video. The next best thing to a LR Defender is a used LR4, which i just bought recently to do overland trips in the western usa.
Great, great video. The Defender is freedom on wheels and this video and story prove it!
Absolutely my favorite Petrolicious video of all time…love all cars but have a special place in my heart for utilitarian, simple, go-anywhere vehicles…thanks for the beautiful small journey to paradise…please continue to feature ‘workhorses’ from time to time between all the thoroughbreds!
Now this is by far one of my best petrolicious videos. Love the accumulated memories and miles on this thing. Good for these two
That’s it…I’m selling it all and buying back my ’94 D90. I’m sure it’s got 10X the miles and will cost me 2X the $ to buy it back but I don’t care. This is brilliant. Thanks for another dose of inspiration Petrolicious!
Needed this today. Excellent.
Love the patina that it’s developing, growing old very gracefully.
But, could you clean the connection on that left front side-light it’s driving me mad…
Watched the wonderful video (boy, what a commitment to a change in life), got home and opened my mail, and found the new issue of Octane magazine with the front cover “Land Rover- Farewell to the world’s most versatile classic”. Timing or happenstance?
Wonderful philosophy on Life… Good for you Sean and Mittie,, Keep on Rocking in the Free World…
Kurt
Thanks Kurt!
Truly an amazing and inspirational film. Makes me wonder why I ever sold my old Classic Range Rovers…different beasts to a Defender maybe, but same sort of ethos….go anywhere, see stuff you can’t see unless you have a pair of hiking boots…and meet people you wouldn’t normally see (like a red-faced farmer with a gun pointing at you telling you to get off his land – yes, in England). Shame they dont make them like that anymore at JLR – just futuristic gizmo-laden toys for the well off, never to even drive through a forest unless a motorway happens to… Read more »
First off I love the Defender and thoroughly enjoyed this video ; That said though I must admit this along with every other article/photo shoot / video of Land Rover Defenders raises my ire to an almost intolerable level . Why you ask ? Because the US Government in their infinite wisdom [ with the exceptions of one short window in the 60’s and another in the 90’s ] has seen fit to keep the Land Rover Defender out of our ( US ) hands based on Safety concerns [ like a JEEP Wrangler of any year is in any… Read more »
This film is nothing less than brilliant. Petrolicious continues to bring us films on the automotive landscape that no other car website brings us. One week it’s a Ferrari 275 GTB/4 and all the beauty that a car like that can bring. The next week we are treated to a vehicle like this Defender. I think unlike any other film this one shows how much our car can contribute to the freedom that a car can bring. That’s what makes us car lovers. And lovers of Petrolicious as well!
