Thread: The philosophical 2018 Land Rover Series VI / Defender / 'Icon'...

#3. Land Rover is run by idiots who couldn't design a toaster,and have small members
#4. If current model defender owners were any tougher they'd rust,and all have 10'' members.
#5. Too many people on here have too much time on their hands,or they spend too much time playing with their members.

The good Burgers of Lillyfield are revolting! You left them out.

It's amazing what you find when you're roving around, isn't it?

Necessity is the Mother of Invention.( No lines from Frank Zappa please Neil.) If all of the cushier urban friendly options are already covered by the RR, Disco, Freelander, Evoke etc, There is no point making another one. If the Defender replacement isn't intended to be more Defender than the Defender it's self, then in 2018, nothing will happen.

You'd think so wouldnt you Billy. ...It's quite a paradox though because it was when Toyota introduced the 60 series Land Cruiser, that Land Rover lost out to a more comfortable wagon! Now LR look like making nothing but comfy wagons and losing out in the Heavy Duty work vehicle sector!

Ok. Grant you some backing there. But can I suggest that "Lust is the Father of Innovation".

Some innovations would be nice to see regards the new defender.
