OOooh, too true. All the Defender needs is a handle welding on the back, and it'd be very much at home in the freezer aisle at Coles.

That's what I thought the last time I parked mine next to a Disco.

What, "someone weld me a handle and a kiddie seat on the back of my Defender, I'm in need of some frozen peas....."?

Sounds a bit of a waste to me, but it's your vehicle

I'm doing my best to explain the Defender price rise on carsales, but all you guys want to convince yourselves of is that the next Defender is already here...and how it has a disco ball inside!

No you're continuing on and on about a vehicle with a set of "nostalgia glasses" on.

By page three the Carsales discussion was done and dusted.

Now it's descending into "if you have this accessory or that" - well guess what - Emmas DEFENDER also came with a Sun Hatch (Sun roof) - factory.... And no one would dare say her vehicle isn't a real Defender...

From your previous comments it sounds like you have no intention of moving onto another one anyway - so why the **** does it matter if they change or make another?

It doesn't. Does it!

Simple statistics are this...
- Sales sub 18k units a year globally
- Spike in Demand only driven by EOL "cool" and those looking to profiteer by grabbing final units (Kahn, Twisted etc ordered hundreds)
- LR purists will reject almost anything new.
- LR want to have something that doesn't have point above happen


They're all Land Rovers - stop being so divisive...

There isn't going to be another one Tombie. That's the point.

It's also the point of this thread.

No I don't think I'll ever own a Disco or Range Rover. They don't meet my needs or inspire me with their design. Nothing against you liking them though. Enjoy.
Cheers.

No - this thread is (was) about the Defenders on Carsales.
