    Question

    What Adr requires airbags to pass the crash tests?

    I can't find the requirement for airbags anywhere. ..

    Then again, selective blindness runs in my family!

    FeatherWeightDriver ADR 69 deals with full frontal impact occupant protection, I think its within that without looking.

    wait time

    I placed my order on November 9 for a 5-seat, 110 wagon in keswick green. Last I heard, delivery should be late March or early April. Apparently they had to build the thing, and that didn't start until January!

    I have no idea what differences (if any) between 2013 and 2014 models.

    Cheers

    Yep - that's the one I am looking at, but it does not state anywhere that I can see that an airbag is required to meet the ADR...

    Question

    Personally, I don't think there's much truth in this rumour.
    However, if some-one in Aus is going to order a Defender next year, then obviously ya'd have to order it well before the date of 20/12/15, which is the date JLR say the last one will roll off the production line.
    Ours took nearly 6 months to get to us after ordering, and who knows what the demand will be next year,...I reckon it'll be big, I reckon JLR will be FLAT OUT keeping up with demand for the "Last Defender", so the delay could be longer. With that in mind, I reckon ya'd best get in "early"?
    Cheers, Pickles.
