BruderLand Rover Defender Station Wagon

We bought this for my son aged 2 1/2 and it is still a hit with him 18 months later. The detail on the land rover is fantastic, it's so realistic. It has proper suspension and doors that open. Bruder sells figures that will fit in the seats, but duplo figures work just as well. The land rover can even be steered as it comes with a little steering wheel that is attached through a sun roof, so it can be 'driven' around by holding the roof as normal, or by using the extra steering wheel.It has stood up well to constant use but one of the doors and a wing mirror did break off. Thankfully Bruder sell replacements parts though so we were able to get a kit with an extra back door, side doors and bonnet which have given it a new lease of life. Bruder toys are quite expensive but they are so well built they are worth it. A firm favourite with my son for years.

Land Rover is of the highest quality. Functions like a detachable steering wheel, connected via the sunroof, allows better controlled driving. Suspension, opening doors bonnet bonnet further adds to the realism. Not forgetting a useful full towbar, which brings me to the potential negatives. Although the towbar holds a trailer securely, I'm not sure it'll withstand constant fiction uncoupling yet still maintain a firm connection or will it wear and become easy to accidentally detach. And I've had a quick try but unable to get a Bruder figure to sit in the front. Certainly wouldn't be easy for a child. Okay small stuff aside. Every part not just looking like a decent toy, appearance, quality and detail better than my 1/18th scale replica plus at 1/16 it's 11% bigger :-D

Wow, this is much bigger than I was expecting!There are loads of little features that make this toy a joy to play with for my little boy. The steering wheel turns the wheels, the Land Rover has suspension for going over bumps and the horse box has a wind-down front wheel, just like a real one. All the doors open and there are little seats inside. A bargain for the money, I'll be looking at more vehicles from Bruder in future.

An excellent product, well made - and not just fun for kids; I bought this for a friend who was having trouble working out his technique for reversing his 2 axle trailer; a new experience for him. There's an extra steering wheel that pops in through the sunroof so you can steer it easily from the top, et voila - he could practice his reversing safely on the dining table - or simply have a great toy for when his little grandson visits.One thing bemuses me, however, is why is it £33.13 on Amazon UK whilst it's €283.99 (£233.52) on Amazon FR - Doh…?

Good sturdy looking toy.It was a gift so i have no idea how it has faired in terms of durability.

Tough and big. This combo will delight both boys and girls. Detail is superb and the accessories that go with it would make a farm or stud complete. The horse and box keeps my grand-daughter busy and the Land Rover my grandson. Made in Germany so keeps jobs in EEC and not far east pity we have no British manufactures anymore! The rival Brittains owned by Americans and made in China is not so good.

Excellent quality product. Purchased for my 3 or 4 year old nephew (he's about 'this high') because his mother has a horse and I thought he would enjoy pretending she was involved in the towing etc. BIG ISSUE - his mum started playing with it more than he does. This is very worrying, addictive behaviour.The quality, attractiveness and the features mean I am definitely going to buy more of these for him in the future, like a digger for example, and I'll just have to make sure his Dad keeps his hands off.

My 2 year old loves his Land Rover so much that he takes it everywhere with him (to sleep, brush his teeth, to nursery). It is robust, he bashes it against his other cars and it is still intact. Looks just like the real thing. The doors and bonnet open, and the extended steering wheel is a cool addition. Very happy!

Fue un regalo para mi hijo para los reyes, y acertamos, le encanta, es de material resistente

Gespann macht einen guten Eindruck und kam gut beim Beschenkten an.

Jouet d'excellente qualité, détails très bien fait, un peu cher mais le prix est justifié.

Bought it for my son... like all Bruder, great quality!

My nephew LOVES his Bruder trucks. I got him the Mack dumptruck for his birthday last year, the big backhoe for Christmas, and the Land Rover for his 3rd birthday. He loves that the doors and hood open so he can put toy friends inside, and the dump truck is still good as new even with a rambunctious two year old playing with it for a year now. The moving buckets on the backhoe have held up great too playing in the sandbox and inside. The steering wheel on the roof of the Land Rover (can be removed and stored underneath the truck) is a great touch and he figured out how to steer it quickly! These vehicles are well-built and incredibly realistic, and they are strong yet lightweight plastic so they can be used indoors or out. He will be getting a Bruder fire truck for Christmas!
