    Poor bugger bean counters.

    Let's face it part of the reason we all love LR products is at night our subconscious mind sees a defender silhouette on the African savannah so they need to keep an off-road icon going. Cheers

    What sort of work are you talking about, exactly? It sounds like what you're really looking for is...

    2018-20 is going to possibly be a very interesting time in the ute/ wagon derivative area!
    First is the one we want to see, the new defender,
    It's competition will be hilux/4tuner, cruiser series 7x , ranga/Everest, amarok and dmax/MUX etc those are the current competitors, but by 2020 there will be;
    Amarok wagon, merc ute based on navara and possibly the next gen Dodge Ram 1500 in Rhd direct from the factory with 3 engine options, v6/v8 petrols and the 3.0tdv6 from the grand Cherokee , throw in a possible ram wagon and jeep grand wagoneer( but that will be more of a D5 competitor) and it will be a market to suit all tastes! Also to compete with the 2 door wrangler and the small hole left by the fj and defender 90 there will be the bronco , which is based of the ranger so would be an easy rhd swap.
    Then there will also be a wrangler dual cab with a 3.6 v6 petrol and either a td4 or a 3.0 tdv6 ! This could be another live axle option for those who don't want independent all round or are looking to do modifications.

    I heard the new Defender will be based on the Evoque soft top. Same running gear, 19" wheels a different body shape (think latest Jeep Renegade) and a khaki canvas top to keep the S1/2 dreamers happy.
    Fuji white RRS L494 AB

    Yes, interesting. I'll bet the Koreans will produce something too as Hyundai seeks worldwide domination. And there may also be a Chinese ute by then.

    Yup the 2 new chinese ute/suv's will look very similar to the defender and wrangler dc/wagons, with one called the "LAND-WIND Defunder" and the other called the "Sheep tangler"
    They will be made with asbestos insulation to reduce their fire hazard's after copying the jeep wiring systems and have a 2.5 star crash rating , similar to a soggy paper cup!
