    Defenders are horrible

    I've just read a review of the new Jeep Wrangler in my local paper the 'Frankston Standard Leader'. It's one of those question and answer reviews. One of the questions is, What are the competitors? The answer.............

    'Discounting the horrible Land Rover Defender, none really, except perhaps the new Toyota FJ Cruiser'.

    The review doesn't have the name of a journalist attached to it.

    I wouldn't worry

    "The Frankston Standard Leader" doesn't exactly scream credible newspaper (like any of them are)

    I have never even heard of it...
    Our Land Rover does not leak oil! it just marks its territory.......

    I would agree. Defenders are horrible. Anyone in Frankston knows this.
    As a service to the community, I will make your lives less horrible by relieving you all of your Defenders. Just send them to me.
    In particular dual cab 130's with Td5 motors.

    Oh, and remember the press motto, "Never let the truth get in the way of a good story."

    The journalist didn't attach his name because he's a mocassin wearing, faded red VN Commodore driving, flanno wearing, incesting practicing dole bludger. Should be easy enough to track down... oh wait, you said Frankston yeah?

    With all due respect to the upstanding Land Rover owners on this forum who reside in Frankston

    The story is probably syndicated round many regional/local newspapers.

    It's a Cars Guide article so it will be in any Murdoch related paper.

    If we leave the fools to their Wranglers, there will be more Defenders for the rest of us .

    I wouldn't be upset, as you know in today's language, things like
    "Bad" means :"good",
    "Sick" means "it's good",
    and "fully sick" means "it's fantastic."
    to say "it's horrible" they are actually saying "its the greatest"
    you just need to learn the lingo.

    also check if it was a sponsored review
