I see they are working on a replacement for the OKA
Is there any detail on the rig in the background?

That is a late model diesel Pinzguer.
The deep bumper bar clearly damages angle of approach. Any suggestions as to why this might be required. I thought it may be some way of including airbags for otherwise its about the only think that I don't like in what I see!!Quote:

Personally, I think it will be miles better than the old Defender, but it wont take off. I think it will be on the market for a couple of years and then disappear.Quote:

Hats off to the bloke for giving it a go though.
