About the Defender 110 3.5 V8 136

The 1991 Land Rover Defender 110 3.5 V8 136 is an all-wheel-drive naturally aspirated SUV of 1,980 kg with 134 bhp, which works out at 68 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 3.09 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 13,775th quickest to 60 mph, and the 73rd quickest of the 86 Land Rovers here. Its 71.4 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Land Rover Defender 110 3.5 V8 136 0-60 time?
The Land Rover Defender 110 3.5 V8 136 reaches 60 mph in 13.31 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 13,775th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Land Rover Defender 110 3.5 V8 136 quarter mile time?
19.27 s at 71.4 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 12.36 s and clears the first 60 ft in 3.09 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Land Rover Defender 110 3.5 V8 136 have?
134 bhp and 1,980 kg, which is 68 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 144 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Land Rover Defender 110 3.5 V8 136?
Closest here on pace: Daihatsu Move 1.0 55 (13.55 s), Dacia Lodgy 1.6 MPI 85 (13.16 s), Suzuki Ignis 1.3 DDiS 69 (12.98 s). Each one can be raced against the Land Rover Defender 110 3.5 V8 136 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Land Rover Defender 110 3.5 V8 136 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
