Did anyone see the email that the new Defender is going to make an appearance at Thredbo later in the season.
Anyone up for a trip?
Cheers

There're no dates - I'd imagine they'll work that out further down the track once they understand a bit more on how th restrictions will play out:

More rubbish from Land Rover.
They've got Discos there and you won't see a Defender.
They told me they already had 3 Defenders in Australia, but wouldn't tell me where , they said they were available for sale or as demos.
If they had those 3 you'd think they would take them to Thredbo wouldn't you? Can you smell the bull****?

No date yet, just a registration of interest to attend. I'm no celebrity, so I'd say it is pretty open. Although I did take my wife to their launch of the Discovery Sport for our wedding anniversary and declined to be photographed on their "red carpet"

Yeah the new defender is in our holding yards at the wharf here in Melbourne, so you probably did see one on one of our trailers....I was loading my trailer this afternoon, looked up and thought that discovery looks weird, then realised it was the new defender. It doesn't stand out from all the other models on the wharf, just another plain looking SUV.....I just hope we get the new ford bronco here....
