    I can't say I like either of them. Really glad I got my 90 before it was too late.

    Yes LouisW! That's my fear too...that they will go all nostalgic and retro and plastic! They will look like cartoon characters to me. Poor replicas. They'll only win me over if the design is no frills and exceedingly robust. I'm not interested in something that challenges Prado or Hilux. I'm interested in the unique not the generic.

    It looks like they borrowed the lego set Toyota used to design the FJ cruiser.

    Jeep vs Landy

    I was driving from Newport (in the loan car -Def 90) to my LRJ Dealer (16km one way) and on route I passed 9 x Jeep Wranglers - a car if find very ugly and the four door version even more so. On my return trip I stopped counting when I passed the 5th. I was very disappointed that i did not see one Landy/Def on the round trip to wave at.

    What on earth do people see in a JeepW or why do they choose them in such dispropotion to defenders. There must be something in it i.e. The reason commercial TV attracts more viewers with content like "Keeping up with the KarTRASHians" vs documentaries on SBS.

    I tried to research the sales units of the Jeep Wrangler vs the Defender. - can't find anything; who can help?


    Now for the concerning part, just suppose LRJ is after the PJ Cruiser and Jeep Wrangler market. Then I expect the new Defender will be exactly what we fear.

    However when I put on my commercial Cap, LRJ executives are there to deliver financial results for their investors not the Landy loving community.

    BTW. My dealer once again volunteer the following information: " There are all sorts of people suddenly showing interest and buying new defenders now that it is evident that production will end in 2015.
