who has seen the new defender

best colour out there so far IMHO

I'd prefer Camel Trophy sandglow...

Or that BritMOD desert sand colour on their WMIKs
(might repaint my County that colour one day...)

What's the rail at the bottom of the rear crossmember meant to do? Its at an odd angle so useless as a step, any tiedowns will slip to the top end..?

Oh wait I forgot its a Puma its for hand pushing onto the tabletop truck

They're rippled like that for the same reason a golf ball has dimples :).

In the same vein as ''the weak diffs and axles are there as easily and cheaply replaced fusible links to prevent more serious and expensive catastrophies further up the transmission line'':wasntme:

The grill is not unattractive at all. I think what put everyone off them was when the SVX's came out with their bling bling silver grills. Those look daft in my opinion. I had mine painted black to match the rest and it transforms the look of the SVX.
