Landcruiser Dual Cab (http://www.themotorreport.com.au/53674/2013-toyota-landcruiser-70-series-dual-cab)

"A 70-Series dual-cab ute will be one of only two dual-cabs on the Australian market that continue to run front and rear live-axle suspension (the other being the Defender 130), giving it significant appeal to the four-wheel-drive faithful looking for a tough, no-nonsense family-friendly touring vehicle."

Toyota have sold a crew cab version in the middle east for years, I could never understand why they never did it here. The Toyota mob will be wetting the selfs at this.

It looks like badger poo , with a tray. As per the picture. Better looking with a style side, like they offer ( off shore ) on both the single cab and double cab.

This looks ok

Well thats gonna set the yota boys singing, "Best vehicle in the world blah blah blah, leave a Defender for dead crap crap crap". Mind you if they widen the rear track to match the front it will be a good thing. If the next Defender doesn't have a decently sized motor (i could always put ina duramax, then i get all the perks) i'd have one. Come to think of it i could just put a Duramax in my D2 and leave all the japs for dead.
