In a bid to see how our fake Land Rover Defender from China compares to the real one, the Supercar Blondie team ran both through a very bumpy suspension test, and the results were shocking.

Our team ordered a Defender dupe from China as part of our ongoing Unboxed series that saw us tackle a RAM clone and a Range Rover wannabe.

But in a side-by-side comparison of the fake and its real counterpart, we put its off-road capabilities to the ultimate test with a suspension-breaking course.

The results are shocking as the fake Land Rover screamed all the way through.
