    Enough to annoy an SVX owner I reckon

    Anyone seen this? its on the RRS feeds on this site

    Land Rover adds luxury to Defender with Fire & Ice editions -- Car and SUV - New cars, reviews, road tests, prices and motoring - driven news, driving opinion

    I would love to have the Fire.......its amazing how the front doesn't look so bad when colour coded.

    I have to say though if I was an SVX owner I would be mad as the features on those are supposed to be unique, however it looks like the features of those are being thrown on these.
    for example the headlight grills the wheels the recaro seats
    Our Land Rover does not leak oil! it just marks its territory.......

    The best of a bad bunch I agree, but not exactly practical outside northern europe, siberia, or tassie

    Is it just me who thinks that the grille on the SVXs (and these) is a hideous abomination, and the sidesteps are the most impractical, useless pieces of crud ever invented.

    No, it's not just you, I don't like them either. I have the factory steps, but the're not as bad as you would think. They are no lower than the chassis, & the kids (& the wife) still use them getting in & out.

    Now that I would look at if I wanted a new Defender. Looks a lot better than the black and silver SVX (sorry SVX owner's I don't like the silver grill)

    I think the lights could work if they took away the square block behind them. The bulgy eye look is just wrong and fugly.
